Hi,
the following set of patches implements the deterministic random bit generator
(DRBG) specified by SP800-90A.
The DRBG implementation offers the following:
* All three DRBG types are implemented with a derivation function.
* All DRBG types are available with and without prediction resistance.
* All SHA types of SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512 are available
for the HMAC and Hash DRBGs.
* All AES types of AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 are available for the
CTR DRBG.
* A self test is implemented with drbg_healthcheck().
* The FIPS 140-2 continuous self test is implemented.
* Additional cipher primitives, such as Serpent or Twofish, can be
added to the DRBG without changing the implementation. The only
change necessary is to the DRBG definition given in the cores[]
array.
Where is the code that actually uses this?
Cheers,
