22  * struct rng_alg - random number generator definition
23  *
24  * @generate:	The function defined by this variable obtains a
25  *		random number. The random number generator transform
26  *		must generate the random number out of the context
27  *		provided with this call, plus any additional data
28  *		if provided to the call.
29  * @seed:	Seed or reseed the random number generator.  With the
30  *		invocation of this function call, the random number
31  *		generator shall become ready for generation.  If the
32  *		random number generator requires a seed for setting
33  *		up a new state, the seed must be provided by the
34  *		consumer while invoking this function. The required
35  *		size of the seed is defined with @seedsize .
36  * @set_ent:	Set entropy that would otherwise be obtained from
37  *		entropy source.  Internal use only.
38  * @seedsize:	The seed size required for a random number generator
39  *		initialization defined with this variable. Some
40  *		random number generators does not require a seed
41  *		as the seeding is implemented internally without
42  *		the need of support by the consumer. In this case,
43  *		the seed size is set to zero.
44  * @base:	Common crypto API algorithm data structure.
