rng-entropy 0.5.0

//! Generic stream-cipher pseudorandom number generator.
//!
//! Any type implementing [`cryptography::StreamCipher`] can be wrapped by
//! [`StreamRng`] to provide the [`super::Rng`] interface.  Stream ciphers
//! are inherently keystream generators; this wrapper simply XORs the keystream
//! into a zero-filled scratch buffer in 64-byte chunks and dispenses words
//! from that buffer.
//!
//! The 64-byte chunk size is a pragmatic choice: it matches ChaCha20's natural
//! block size and is a common multiple of the internal word widths of Rabbit
//! (16-byte state output), Salsa20 (64-byte block), Snow3G (4-byte word), and
//! ZUC-128 (4-byte word).
//!
//! Keystream bytes are consumed little-endian, consistent with the other
//! byte-backed generators in this crate.
//!
//! # Invariants
//!
//! `0 ≤ pos ≤ CHUNK`.  `pos == CHUNK` is the sentinel meaning "buffer
//! exhausted; refill required."  Construction sets `pos = CHUNK` so the first
//! call to `next_u32` always triggers a refill.
//!
//! `CHUNK` must be a multiple of 8 so that `next_u64` can always consume
//! exactly 8 bytes after a refill without reading past the buffer.

/// Stream-cipher RNG wrapping any [`StreamCipher`].
///
/// The cipher must already be initialised (key and IV set) before wrapping.
/// After wrapping, callers only call [`Rng::next_u32`]; the underlying cipher
/// advances automatically as chunks are consumed.
///
/// # Note on `next_u64` and chunk boundaries
///
/// If `next_u32` and `next_u64` are interleaved, a `next_u64` call that finds
/// fewer than 8 bytes remaining will discard those trailing bytes and refill.
/// The output stream is therefore not guaranteed to be a contiguous prefix of
/// the underlying cipher's keystream when the two methods are mixed.
