Struct EntropyPool 

pub struct EntropyPool { /* private fields */ }

Thread-safe multi-source entropy pool.

Implementations

impl EntropyPool

pub fn new(seed: Option<&[u8]>) -> Self

Create an empty pool.

pub fn auto() -> Self

Create a pool with all available sources on this machine.

pub fn add_source(&mut self, source: Box<dyn EntropySource>, weight: f64)

Register an entropy source.

pub fn source_count(&self) -> usize

Number of registered sources.

pub fn collect_all(&self) -> usize

Collect entropy from every registered source (serial). Collect entropy from every registered source in parallel with per-source timeout (10s default). Sources that exceed the timeout are skipped.

pub fn collect_all_parallel(&self, timeout_secs: f64) -> usize

Collect entropy from all sources in parallel using threads.

pub fn collect_enabled(&self, enabled_names: &[String]) -> usize

Collect entropy only from sources whose names are in the given list. Uses parallel threads. Collects 1000 samples per source.

pub fn collect_enabled_n( &self, enabled_names: &[String], n_samples: usize, ) -> usize

Collect n_samples of entropy from sources whose names are in the list. Smaller n_samples values are faster — use this for interactive/TUI contexts.

pub fn get_raw_bytes(&self, n_bytes: usize) -> Vec<u8>

Return n_bytes of raw, unconditioned entropy (XOR-combined only).

No SHA-256, no DRBG, no whitening. Preserves the raw hardware noise signal for researchers studying actual device entropy characteristics.

pub fn get_random_bytes(&self, n_bytes: usize) -> Vec<u8>

Return n_bytes of conditioned random output.

pub fn get_bytes(&self, n_bytes: usize, mode: ConditioningMode) -> Vec<u8>

Return n_bytes of entropy with the specified conditioning mode.

• Raw: XOR-combined source bytes, no whitening
• VonNeumann: debiased but structure-preserving
• Sha256: full cryptographic conditioning (default)

pub fn health_report(&self) -> HealthReport

Health report as structured data.

pub fn print_health(&self)

Pretty-print health report.

pub fn source_infos(&self) -> Vec<SourceInfoSnapshot>

Get source info for each registered source.
