Hi, I think that gcrypt documentation contains some bugs.
Extract (1): -------- http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gcrypt/Controlling-the-library.html GCRYCTL_USE_SECURE_RNDPOOL; Arguments: none This command tells the PRNG to store random numbers in secure memory. This command should be run right after gcry_check_version and not later than the command GCRYCTL_INIT_SECMEM. Note that in FIPS mode the secure memory is always used. -------- Does it mean that GCRYCTL_USE_SECURE_RNDPOOL can be used before GCRYCTL_INIT_SECMEM? Because if I use both, I get this: Oops, secure memory pool already initialized Extract (2): -------- http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gcrypt/Initializing-the- library.html /* Allocate a pool of 16k secure memory. This make the secure memory available and also drops privileges where needed. */ gcry_control (GCRYCTL_INIT_SECMEM, 16384, 0); -------- Does gcry_control have one or two arguments? I think that it's just one and the doc is wrong. -- Victor Stinner http://www.haypocalc.com/ _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
