3*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=head1 NAME
4*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
5*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryEVP_RAND-TEST-RAND - The test EVP_RAND implementation
6*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
7*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=head1 DESCRIPTION
8*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
9*b077aed3SPierre ProncherySupport for a test generator through the B<EVP_RAND> API. This generator is
10*b077aed3SPierre Proncheryfor test purposes only, it does not generate random numbers.
11*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
12*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=head2 Identity
13*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
14*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery"TEST-RAND" is the name for this implementation; it can be used with the
15*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryEVP_RAND_fetch() function.
16*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
17*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=head2 Supported parameters
18*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
19*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryThe supported parameters are:
20*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
21*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=over 4
22*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
23*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "state" (B<OSSL_RAND_PARAM_STATE>) <integer>
24*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
25*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryThese parameter works as described in L<EVP_RAND(3)/PARAMETERS>.
26*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
27*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "strength" (B<OSSL_RAND_PARAM_STRENGTH>) <unsigned integer>
28*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
29*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "reseed_requests" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_RESEED_REQUESTS>) <unsigned integer>
30*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
31*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "reseed_time_interval" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_RESEED_TIME_INTERVAL>) <integer>
32*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
33*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "max_request" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_RESEED_REQUESTS>) <unsigned integer>
34*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
35*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "min_entropylen" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_MIN_ENTROPYLEN>) <unsigned integer>
36*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
37*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "max_entropylen" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_MAX_ENTROPYLEN>) <unsigned integer>
38*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
39*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "min_noncelen" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_MIN_NONCELEN>) <unsigned integer>
40*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
41*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "max_noncelen" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_MAX_NONCELEN>) <unsigned integer>
42*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
43*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "max_perslen" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_MAX_PERSLEN>) <unsigned integer>
44*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
45*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "max_adinlen" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_MAX_ADINLEN>) <unsigned integer>
46*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
47*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "reseed_counter" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_RESEED_COUNTER>) <unsigned integer>
48*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
49*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryThese parameters work as described in L<EVP_RAND(3)/PARAMETERS>, except that
50*b077aed3SPierre Proncherythey can all be set as well as read.
51*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
52*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "test_entropy" (B<OSSL_RAND_PARAM_TEST_ENTROPY>) <octet string>
53*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
54*b077aed3SPierre ProncherySets the bytes returned when the test generator is sent an entropy request.
55*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryThe current position is remembered across generate calls.
56*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryIf there are insufficient data present to satisfy a call, an error is returned.
57*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
58*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=item "test_nonce" (B<OSSL_RAND_PARAM_TEST_NONCE>) <octet string>
59*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
60*b077aed3SPierre ProncherySets the bytes returned when the test generator is sent a nonce request.
61*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryEach nonce request will return all of the bytes.

65*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery=head1 NOTES
66*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
67*b077aed3SPierre ProncheryA context for a test generator can be obtained by calling:
68*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery
69*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery EVP_RAND *rand = EVP_RAND_fetch(NULL, "TEST-RAND", NULL);
70*b077aed3SPierre Pronchery EVP_RAND_CTX *rctx = EVP_RAND_CTX_new(rand);
