If <b>max_bytes</b> is nonnegative, up to <b>max_bytes</b> are read; if <b>max_bytes</b> is -1, the complete file is read. Do not load the same file multiple times unless its contents have been updated by RAND_write_file() between reads. Also, note that <b>filename</b> should be adequately protected so that an attacker cannot replace or examine the contents. If <b>filename</b> is not a regular file, then user is considered to be responsible for any side effects, e.g. non-anticipated blocking or capture of controlling terminal.</p> <p>RAND_write_file() writes a number of random bytes (currently 128) to file <b>filename</b> which can be used to initialize the PRNG by calling RAND_load_file() in a later session.</p> <p>RAND_file_name() generates a default path for the random seed file. <b>buf</b> points to a buffer of size <b>num</b> in which to store the filename.</p> <p>On all systems, if the environment variable <b>RANDFILE</b> is set, its value will be used as the seed filename. Otherwise, the file is called <code>.rnd</code>, found in platform dependent locations:</p> <dl> <dt id="On-Windows-in-order-of-preference">On Windows (in order of preference)</dt> <dd> <pre><code> %HOME%, %USERPROFILE%, %SYSTEMROOT%, C:\</code></pre> </dd> <dt id="On-VMS">On VMS</dt> <dd> <pre><code> SYS$LOGIN:</code></pre> </dd> <dt id="On-all-other-systems">On all other systems</dt> <dd> <pre><code> $HOME</code></pre> </dd> </dl> <p>If <code>$HOME</code> (on non-Windows and non-VMS system) is not set either, or <b>num</b> is too small for the pathname, an error occurs.</p> <h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1> <p>RAND_load_file() returns the number of bytes read or -1 on error.</p> <p>RAND_write_file() returns the number of bytes written, or -1 if the bytes written were generated without appropriate seeding.</p> <p>RAND_file_name() returns a pointer to <b>buf</b> on success, and NULL on error.</p> <h1 id="SEE-ALSO">SEE ALSO</h1> <p><a href="../man3/RAND_add.html">RAND_add(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/RAND_bytes.html">RAND_bytes(3)</a>, <a href="../man7/RAND.html">RAND(7)</a></p> <h1 id="COPYRIGHT">COPYRIGHT</h1> <p>Copyright 2000-2020 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
