## Function Documentation

## ◆ mbedtls_entropy_add_source()

int mbedtls_entropy_add_source | ( | mbedtls_entropy_context * | ctx,
|  | mbedtls_entropy_f_source_ptr | f_source,
|  | void * | p_source,
|  | size_t | threshold,
|  | int | strong
| ) |  |

Adds an entropy source to poll (Thread-safe if MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is enabled)

Parameters

  ctx | Entropy context
  f_source | Entropy function
  p_source | Function data
  threshold | Minimum required from source before entropy is released ( with mbedtls_entropy_func() ) (in bytes)
  strong | MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_SOURCE_STRONG or MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_SOURCE_WEAK. At least one strong source needs to be added. Weaker sources (such as the cycle counter) can be used as a complement.

Returns
  0 if successful or MBEDTLS_ERR_ENTROPY_MAX_SOURCES

## ◆ mbedtls_entropy_free()

void mbedtls_entropy_free | ( | mbedtls_entropy_context * | ctx | ) |

Free the data in the context.
