TSS_RESULT Tspi_TPM_GetRandom(TSS_HTPM hTPM, UINT32 size, BYTE** random);
DESCRIPTION
Tspi_TPM_GetRandom gets a good random number for the purpose of generating symmetric keys, nonces, or seeding a random number generator.
PARAMETERS
hTPM
The hTPM parameter is used to specify the handle of the TPM object. The command to get the TPM to test itself will be sent here.size
The size parameter is the number of random bytes requested.random
The random parameter is a pointer to memory containing the random data. This is where the generated number goes. Because this internally allocates memory, Tspi_Context_FreeMemory should also be used.
RETURN CODES
Tspi_TPM_GetRandom returns TSS_SUCCESS on success, otherwise one of the following values is returned:
- TSS_E_INVALID_HANDLE
-
hTPM is not a valid handle.
- TSS_E_INTERNAL_ERROR
-
An internal SW error has been detected.
- TSS_E_BAD_PARAMETER
-
One or more parameters is bad.
CONFORMING TO
Tspi_TPM_GetRandom conforms to the Trusted Computing Group Software Specification version 1.1 Golden
