16 void RAND_add(const void *buf, int num, double randomness);
17 void RAND_seed(const void *buf, int num);
32 In general, manual (re-)seeding of the default OpenSSL random generator
33 (L<RAND_OpenSSL(3)>) is not necessary (but allowed), since it does (re-)seed
34 itself automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
42 random input obtained from polling various trusted entropy sources.
46 RAND_add() mixes the B<num> bytes at B<buf> into the internal state
51 B<buf>, in bytes, and should be a number between zero and B<num>.
52 Details about sources of randomness and how to estimate their randomness
53 can be found in the literature; for example [NIST SP 800-90B].
63 RAND_seed() is equivalent to RAND_add() with B<randomness> set to B<num>.
66 usage by the random seed sources. Some seed sources maintain open file
67 descriptors by default, which allows such sources to operate in a
