Public Functions Documentation

function syn_port_random_fill

Porting hook: must be implemented by the platform to provide entropy.

SYN_WEAK  SYN_Status syn_port_random_fill (
    void * buf,
    size_t len
) 

Parameters:

• buf Output buffer.
• len Number of bytes.

Returns:

SYN_OK on success.

---

function syn_random_fallback_fill

Internal: XOR-shift fallback for when no hardware entropy is available.

SYN_Status syn_random_fallback_fill (
    void * buf,
    size_t len
) 

Internal XOR-shift fallback for random data.

Parameters:

• buf Output buffer.
• len Length in bytes.

Returns:

SYN_OK.

---

function syn_random_fill

Fill a buffer with cryptographically secure random bytes.

SYN_Status syn_random_fill (
    void * buf,
    size_t len
) 

This function relies on a platform-specific hardware RNG or secure OS source (via syn_port_random_fill).

Parameters:

• buf Output buffer.
• len Number of bytes to generate.

Returns:

SYN_OK on success, SYN_ERROR if the RNG is unavailable.

---

function syn_random_range

Generate a random integer within a range [min, max].

uint32_t syn_random_range (
    uint32_t min,
    uint32_t max
) 

Parameters:

• min Minimum value (inclusive).
• max Maximum value (inclusive).

Returns:

Random value.

---

function syn_random_u32

Generate a random 32-bit integer.

uint32_t syn_random_u32 (
    void
) 

Returns:

Random value, or 0 on failure (RNG check is recommended for sensitive use).
