Detailed Description

ChaCha_RNG is a very fast but completely ad-hoc RNG created by creating a 256-bit random value and using it as a key for ChaCha20.

The RNG maintains two 256-bit keys, one for HMAC_SHA256 (HK) and the other for ChaCha20 (CK). To compute a new key in response to reseeding request or add_entropy calls, ChaCha_RNG computes CK' = HMAC_SHA256(HK, input_material) Then a new HK' is computed by running ChaCha20 with the new key to output 32 bytes: HK' = ChaCha20(CK')

Now output can be produced by continuing to produce output with ChaCha20 under CK'

The first HK (before seeding occurs) is taken as the all zero value.

Warning

This RNG construction is probably fine but is non-standard. The primary reason to use it is in cases where the other RNGs are not fast enough.

Automatic reseeding is disabled completely, as it has no access to any source for seed material.

If a fork is detected, the RNG will be unable to reseed itself in response. In this case, an exception will be thrown rather than generating duplicated output.

)

Provide an initial seed to the RNG, without providing an underlying RNG or entropy source. Automatic reseeding is disabled completely, as it has no access to any source for seed material.

If a fork is detected, the RNG will be unable to reseed itself in response. In this case, an exception will be thrown rather than generating duplicated output.

Parameters

seed	the seed material, should be at least 256 bits

Returns false if it is known that this RNG object is not able to accept externally provided inputs (via add_entropy, randomize_with_input, etc). In this case, any such provided inputs are ignored.

If this function returns true, then inputs may or may not be accepted.

max_number_of_bytes_per_request()

size_t Botan::ChaCha_RNG::max_number_of_bytes_per_request ( ) const

Some DRBGs have a notion of the maximum number of bytes per request. Longer requests (to randomize) will be treated as multiple requests, and may initiate reseeding multiple times, depending on the values of max_number_of_bytes_per_request and reseed_interval(). This function returns zero if the RNG in question does not have such a notion.

Incorporate entropy into the RNG state then produce output. Some RNG types implement this using a single operation, default calls add_entropy + randomize in sequence.

Use this to further bind the outputs to your current process/protocol state. For instance if generating a new key for use in a session, include a session ID or other such value. See NIST SP 800-90 A, B, C series for more ideas.

Parameters

output	buffer to hold the random output
input	entropy buffer to incorporate

Exception	if the RNG fails

randomize_with_ts_input() [1/2]

void Botan::RandomNumberGenerator::randomize_with_ts_input ( std::span< uint8_t > output )

inherited

This calls randomize_with_input using some timestamps as extra input.

For a stateful RNG using non-random but potentially unique data the extra input can help protect against problems with fork, VM state rollback, or other cases where somehow an RNG state is duplicated. If both of the duplicated RNG states later incorporate a timestamp (and the timestamps don't themselves repeat), their outputs will diverge.

Parameters

output

buffer to hold the random output

Exceptions

PRNG_Unseeded	if the RNG fails because it has not enough entropy
Exception	if the RNG fails
Exception	may throw if the RNG accepts input, but adding the entropy failed.

Reseed by reading specified bits from the RNG

Sets the seeded state to true if enough entropy was added.

Exceptions

Exception

if RNG accepts input but reseeding failed.
