Function Documentation

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_free()

void mbedtls_hmac_drbg_free ( mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context ctx)

This function resets HMAC_DRBG context to the state immediately after initial call of mbedtls_hmac_drbg_init().

Parameters
ctxThe HMAC_DRBG context to free.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_init()

void mbedtls_hmac_drbg_init ( mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context ctx)

HMAC_DRBG context initialization.

This function makes the context ready for mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed(), mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed_buf() or mbedtls_hmac_drbg_free().

Note
The reseed interval is MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_RESEED_INTERVAL by default. Override this value by calling mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_reseed_interval().
Parameters
ctxHMAC_DRBG context to be initialized.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random()

int mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random ( void p_rng,
unsigned char output,
size_t  out_len 
)

This function uses HMAC_DRBG to generate random data.

This function automatically reseeds if the reseed counter is exceeded or prediction resistance is enabled.

Parameters
p_rngThe HMAC_DRBG context. This must be a pointer to a mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context structure.
outputThe buffer to fill.
out_lenThe length of the buffer in bytes. This must be at most MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_REQUEST.
Returns
0 if successful.
MBEDTLS_ERR_HMAC_DRBG_ENTROPY_SOURCE_FAILED if a call to the entropy source failed.
MBEDTLS_ERR_HMAC_DRBG_REQUEST_TOO_BIG if out_len > MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_REQUEST.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random_with_add()

int mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random_with_add ( void p_rng,
unsigned char output,
size_t  output_len,
const unsigned char additional,
size_t  add_len 
)

This function updates an HMAC_DRBG instance with additional data and uses it to generate random data.

This function automatically reseeds if the reseed counter is exceeded or prediction resistance is enabled.

Note
This function is not thread-safe. It is not safe to call this function if another thread might be concurrently obtaining random numbers from the same context or updating or reseeding the same context.
Parameters
p_rngThe HMAC_DRBG context. This must be a pointer to a mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context structure.
outputThe buffer to fill.
output_lenThe length of the buffer in bytes. This must be at most MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_REQUEST.
additionalAdditional data to update with. If this is NULL, there is no additional data and add_len should be 0.
add_lenThe length of the additional data. This must be at most MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_INPUT.
Returns
0 if successful.
MBEDTLS_ERR_HMAC_DRBG_ENTROPY_SOURCE_FAILED if a call to the entropy source failed.
MBEDTLS_ERR_HMAC_DRBG_REQUEST_TOO_BIG if output_len > MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_REQUEST.
MBEDTLS_ERR_HMAC_DRBG_INPUT_TOO_BIG if add_len > MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_INPUT.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_reseed()

int mbedtls_hmac_drbg_reseed ( mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context ctx,
const unsigned char additional,
size_t  len 
)

This function reseeds the HMAC_DRBG context, that is extracts data from the entropy source.

Note
This function is not thread-safe. It is not safe to call this function if another thread might be concurrently obtaining random numbers from the same context or updating or reseeding the same context.
Parameters
ctxThe HMAC_DRBG context.
additionalAdditional data to add to the state. If this is NULL, there is no additional data and len should be 0.
lenThe length of the additional data. This must be at most MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_INPUT and also at most MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_SEED_INPUT - entropy_len where entropy_len is the entropy length (see mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_entropy_len()).
Returns
0 if successful.
MBEDTLS_ERR_HMAC_DRBG_ENTROPY_SOURCE_FAILED if a call to the entropy function failed.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed()

int mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed ( mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context ctx,
const mbedtls_md_info_t md_info,
int(*)(void *, unsigned char *, size_t f_entropy,
void p_entropy,
const unsigned char custom,
size_t  len 
)

HMAC_DRBG initial seeding.

Set the initial seed and set up the entropy source for future reseeds.

A typical choice for the f_entropy and p_entropy parameters is to use the entropy module:

You can provide a personalization string in addition to the entropy source, to make this instantiation as unique as possible.

Note
By default, the security strength as defined by NIST is:
  • 128 bits if md_info is SHA-1;
  • 192 bits if md_info is SHA-224;
  • 256 bits if md_info is SHA-256, SHA-384 or SHA-512. Note that SHA-256 is just as efficient as SHA-224. The security strength can be reduced if a smaller entropy length is set with mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_entropy_len().
The default entropy length is the security strength (converted from bits to bytes). You can override it by calling mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_entropy_len().
During the initial seeding, this function calls the entropy source to obtain a nonce whose length is half the entropy length.
Parameters
ctxHMAC_DRBG context to be seeded.
md_infoMD algorithm to use for HMAC_DRBG.
f_entropyThe entropy callback, taking as arguments the p_entropy context, the buffer to fill, and the length of the buffer. f_entropy is always called with a length that is less than or equal to the entropy length.
p_entropyThe entropy context to pass to f_entropy.
customThe personalization string. This can be NULL, in which case the personalization string is empty regardless of the value of len.
lenThe length of the personalization string. This must be at most MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_INPUT and also at most MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_MAX_SEED_INPUT - entropy_len * 3 / 2 where entropy_len is the entropy length described above.
Returns
0 if successful.
MBEDTLS_ERR_MD_BAD_INPUT_DATA if md_info is invalid.
MBEDTLS_ERR_MD_ALLOC_FAILED if there was not enough memory to allocate context data.
MBEDTLS_ERR_HMAC_DRBG_ENTROPY_SOURCE_FAILED if the call to f_entropy failed.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed_buf()

int mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed_buf ( mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context ctx,
const mbedtls_md_info_t md_info,
const unsigned char data,
size_t  data_len 
)

Initilisation of simpified HMAC_DRBG (never reseeds).

This function is meant for use in algorithms that need a pseudorandom input such as deterministic ECDSA.

Parameters
ctxHMAC_DRBG context to be initialised.
md_infoMD algorithm to use for HMAC_DRBG.
dataConcatenation of the initial entropy string and the additional data.
data_lenLength of data in bytes.
Returns
0 if successful. or
MBEDTLS_ERR_MD_BAD_INPUT_DATA if md_info is invalid.
MBEDTLS_ERR_MD_ALLOC_FAILED if there was not enough memory to allocate context data.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_entropy_len()

void mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_entropy_len ( mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context ctx,
size_t  len 
)

This function sets the amount of entropy grabbed on each seed or reseed.

See the documentation of mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed() for the default value.

Parameters
ctxThe HMAC_DRBG context.
lenThe amount of entropy to grab, in bytes.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_prediction_resistance()

void mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_prediction_resistance ( mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context ctx,
int  resistance 
)

This function turns prediction resistance on or off. The default value is off.

Note
If enabled, entropy is gathered at the beginning of every call to mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random_with_add() or mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random(). Only use this if your entropy source has sufficient throughput.
Parameters
ctxThe HMAC_DRBG context.
resistanceMBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_PR_ON or MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_PR_OFF.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_reseed_interval()

void mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_reseed_interval ( mbedtls_hmac_drbg_context ctx,
int  interval 
)

Set the reseed interval.

The reseed interval is the number of calls to mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random() or mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random_with_add() after which the entropy function is called again.

The default value is MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_RESEED_INTERVAL.

Parameters
ctxThe HMAC_DRBG context.
intervalThe reseed interval.

◆ mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update()
