EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_ARM_RNDR

#define EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_ARM_RNDR

Value:

  { \
    0x43d2fde3, 0x9d4e, 0x4d79,  {0x02, 0x96, 0xa8, 0x9b, 0xca, 0x78, 0x08, 0x41} \
  }

The Arm Architecture states the RNDR that the DRBG algorithm should be compliant with NIST SP800-90A, while not mandating a particular algorithm, so as to be inclusive of different geographies.

Definition at line 75 of file Rng.h.

EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_RAW

#define EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_RAW

Value:

  { \
    0xe43176d7, 0xb6e8, 0x4827, {0xb7, 0x84, 0x7f, 0xfd, 0xc4, 0xb6, 0x85, 0x61 } \
  }

The "raw" algorithm, when supported, is intended to provide entropy directly from the source, without it going through some deterministic random bit generator.

EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_SP800_90_CTR_256_GUID

#define EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_SP800_90_CTR_256_GUID

Value:

  { \
    0x44f0de6e, 0x4d8c, 0x4045, {0xa8, 0xc7, 0x4d, 0xd1, 0x68, 0x85, 0x6b, 0x9e } \
  }

EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_SP800_90_HASH_256_GUID

#define EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_SP800_90_HASH_256_GUID

Value:

  { \
    0xa7af67cb, 0x603b, 0x4d42, {0xba, 0x21, 0x70, 0xbf, 0xb6, 0x29, 0x3f, 0x96 } \
  }

The algorithms corresponds to SP800-90 as defined in NIST SP 800-90, "Recommendation for Random Number Generation Using Deterministic Random Bit Generators", March 2007.

EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_SP800_90_HMAC_256_GUID

#define EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM_SP800_90_HMAC_256_GUID

Value:

  { \
    0xc5149b43, 0xae85, 0x4f53, {0x99, 0x82, 0xb9, 0x43, 0x35, 0xd3, 0xa9, 0xe7 } \

  }

The algorithms correspond to X9.31 as defined in NIST, "Recommended Random Number Generator Based on ANSI X9.31 Appendix A.2.4 Using the 3-Key Triple DES and AES Algorithm", January 2005.

Typedef Documentation

EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM

typedef EFI_GUID EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM

A selection of EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL algorithms. The algorithms listed are optional, not meant to be exhaustive and be argmented by vendors or other industry standards.

Definition at line 30 of file Rng.h.

EFI_RNG_GET_INFO

typedef EFI_STATUS(EFIAPI * EFI_RNG_GET_INFO) (IN EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL *This, IN OUT UINTN *RNGAlgorithmListSize, OUT EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM *RNGAlgorithmList)

Returns information about the random number generation implementation.

Parameters

[in]	This	A pointer to the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL instance.
[in,out]	RNGAlgorithmListSize	On input, the size in bytes of RNGAlgorithmList. On output with a return code of EFI_SUCCESS, the size in bytes of the data returned in RNGAlgorithmList. On output with a return code of EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL, the size of RNGAlgorithmList required to obtain the list.
[out]	RNGAlgorithmList	A caller-allocated memory buffer filled by the driver with one EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM element for each supported RNG algorithm. The list must not change across multiple calls to the same driver. The first algorithm in the list is the default algorithm for the driver.

Return values

EFI_SUCCESS	The RNG algorithm list was returned successfully.
EFI_UNSUPPORTED	The services is not supported by this driver.
EFI_DEVICE_ERROR	The list of algorithms could not be retrieved due to a hardware or firmware error.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER	One or more of the parameters are incorrect.
EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL	The buffer RNGAlgorithmList is too small to hold the result.

Definition at line 104 of file Rng.h.

EFI_RNG_GET_RNG

typedef EFI_STATUS(EFIAPI * EFI_RNG_GET_RNG) (IN EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL *This, IN EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM *RNGAlgorithm OPTIONAL, IN UINTN RNGValueLength, OUT UINT8 *RNGValue)

Produces and returns an RNG value using either the default or specified RNG algorithm.

Parameters

[in]	This	A pointer to the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL instance.
[in]	RNGAlgorithm	A pointer to the EFI_RNG_ALGORITHM that identifies the RNG algorithm to use. May be NULL in which case the function will use its default RNG algorithm.
[in]	RNGValueLength	The length in bytes of the memory buffer pointed to by RNGValue. The driver shall return exactly this numbers of bytes.
[out]	RNGValue	A caller-allocated memory buffer filled by the driver with the resulting RNG value.

Return values

EFI_SUCCESS	The RNG value was returned successfully.
EFI_UNSUPPORTED	The algorithm specified by RNGAlgorithm is not supported by this driver.
EFI_DEVICE_ERROR	An RNG value could not be retrieved due to a hardware or firmware error.
EFI_NOT_READY	There is not enough random data available to satisfy the length requested by RNGValueLength.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER	RNGValue is NULL or RNGValueLength is zero.
