<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>

<p>RAND_DRBG_reseed() reseeds the given <b>drbg</b>, obtaining entropy input from its entropy source and mixing in the specified additional data provided in the buffer <b>adin</b> of length <b>adinlen</b>. The additional data can be omitted by setting <b>adin</b> to NULL and <b>adinlen</b> to 0. An immediate reseeding from a live entropy source can be requested by setting the <b>prediction_resistance</b> flag to 1. This feature is not implemented yet, so reseeding with prediction resistance requested will always fail.</p>

<p>RAND_DRBG_set_reseed_interval() sets the reseed interval of the <b>drbg</b>, which is the maximum allowed number of generate requests between consecutive reseedings. If <b>interval</b> &gt; 0, then the <b>drbg</b> will reseed automatically whenever the number of generate requests since its last seeding exceeds the given reseed interval. If <b>interval</b> == 0, then this feature is disabled.</p>

<p>RAND_DRBG_set_reseed_time_interval() sets the reseed time interval of the <b>drbg</b>, which is the maximum allowed number of seconds between consecutive reseedings. If <b>interval</b> &gt; 0, then the <b>drbg</b> will reseed automatically whenever the elapsed time since its last reseeding exceeds the given reseed time interval. If <b>interval</b> == 0, then this feature is disabled.</p>

<p>RAND_DRBG_set_reseed_defaults() sets the default values for the reseed interval (<b>master_reseed_interval</b> and <b>slave_reseed_interval</b>) and the reseed time interval (<b>master_reseed_time_interval</b> and <b>slave_reseed_tme_interval</b>) of DRBG instances. The default values are set independently for master DRBG instances (which don&#39;t have a parent) and slave DRBG instances (which are chained to a parent DRBG).</p>

<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>

<p>RAND_DRBG_reseed(), RAND_DRBG_set_reseed_interval(), and RAND_DRBG_set_reseed_time_interval(), return 1 on success, 0 on failure.</p>

<h1 id="NOTES">NOTES</h1>

<p>The default OpenSSL random generator is already set up for automatic reseeding, so in general it is not necessary to reseed it explicitly, or to modify its reseeding thresholds.</p>

<p>Normally, the entropy input for seeding a DRBG is either obtained from a trusted os entropy source or from a parent DRBG instance, which was seeded (directly or indirectly) from a trusted os entropy source. In exceptional cases it is possible to replace the reseeding mechanism entirely by providing application defined callbacks using RAND_DRBG_set_callbacks().</p>

<p>The reseeding default values are applied only during creation of a DRBG instance. To ensure that they are applied to the global and thread-local DRBG instances (&lt;master&gt;, resp. &lt;public&gt; and &lt;private&gt;), it is necessary to call RAND_DRBG_set_reseed_defaults() before creating any thread and before calling any cryptographic routines that obtain random data directly or indirectly.</p>
