Function Documentation

ret_code_t nrf_drv_rng_bytes_available

(

uint8_t *

p_bytes_available

)

Function for getting the number of currently available random bytes.

Parameters

[out]

p_bytes_available

The number of bytes currently available in the pool.

Return values

NRF_SUCCESS	If the number of available random bytes was written to p_bytes_available.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE	If the driver was not initialized.

ret_code_t nrf_drv_rng_init

(

nrf_drv_rng_config_t const *

p_config

)

Function for initializing the nrf_drv_rng module.

Parameters

[in]

p_config

Initial configuration. Default configuration used if NULL.

Return values

NRF_SUCCESS	Driver was successfully initialized.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE	Driver was already initialized.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_LENGTH	Pool size have to be a power of 2.
NRF_ERROR_SOFTDEVICE_NOT_ENABLED	SoftDevice is present, but not enabled.

ret_code_t nrf_drv_rng_pool_capacity

(

uint8_t *

p_pool_capacity

)

Function for querying the capacity of the application random pool.

Parameters

[out]

p_pool_capacity

The capacity of the pool.

Return values

NRF_SUCCESS	If the capacity of the pool was written to p_pool_capacity.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE	If the driver was not initialized.

ret_code_t nrf_drv_rng_rand	(	uint8_t *	p_buff ,
		uint8_t	length
	)

Function for getting the vector of random numbers.

Parameters

[out]	p_buff	Pointer to unit8_t buffer for storing the bytes.
[in]	length	Number of bytes to take from the pool and place in p_buff.

Return values

NRF_SUCCESS	If the requested bytes were written to p_buff.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE	If the driver was not initialized.
NRF_ERROR_NO_MEM	If no bytes were written to the buffer because there were not enough bytes available in p_buff.
NRF_ERROR_SOC_RAND_NOT_ENOUGH_VALUES	If no bytes were written to the buffer because there were not enough bytes available in the pool.
