.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The default \s-1RAND API\s0 implementation (\fBRAND_OpenSSL()\fR) utilizes three
shared \s-1DRBG\s0 instances which are accessed via the \s-1RAND API:\s0
.PP
The <public> and <private> \s-1DRBG\s0 are thread-local instances, which are used
by \fBRAND_bytes()\fR and \fBRAND_priv_bytes()\fR, respectively.
The <master> \s-1DRBG\s0 is a global instance, which is not intended to be used
directly, but is used internally to reseed the other two instances.
.PP
These functions here provide access to the shared \s-1DRBG\s0 instances.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBRAND_DRBG_get0_master()\fR returns a pointer to the <master> \s-1DRBG\s0 instance.
.PP
\&\fBRAND_DRBG_get0_public()\fR returns a pointer to the <public> \s-1DRBG\s0 instance.
.PP
\&\fBRAND_DRBG_get0_private()\fR returns a pointer to the <private> \s-1DRBG\s0 instance.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
It is not thread-safe to access the <master> \s-1DRBG\s0 instance.
The <public> and <private> \s-1DRBG\s0 instance can be accessed safely, because
they are thread-local. Note however, that changes to these two instances
apply only to the current thread.
.PP
For that reason it is recommended not to change the settings of these
three instances directly.
Instead, an application should change the default settings for new \s-1DRBG\s0 instances
at initialization time, before creating additional threads.
.PP
During initialization, it is possible to change the reseed interval
and reseed time interval.
It is also possible to exchange the reseeding callbacks entirely.
