Module `Mirage_crypto_rng_lwt`Source

RNG seeding on Lwt.

This module initializes a Fortuna RNG with getrandom(), and CPU RNG.

Source

val initialize : 
  ?g:'a ->
  ?sleep:int64 ->
  'a Mirage_crypto_rng.generator ->
  unit

initialize ~g ~sleep generator will bring the RNG into a working state. The argument sleep is measured in ns (default 1s), and used to sleep between collection of entropy from the CPU RNG, every 10 * sleep getrandom is used to collect entropy.
