| |
| //! The ChaCha random number generators. |
| //! |
| //! These are native Rust implementations of RNGs derived from the |
| //! [ChaCha stream ciphers] by D J Bernstein. |
| //! |
| //! ## Generators |
| //! |
| //! This crate provides 8-, 12- and 20-round variants of generators via a "core" |
| //! implementation (of [`BlockRngCore`]), each with an associated "RNG" type |
| //! (implementing [`RngCore`]). |
| //! |
| //! These generators are all deterministic and portable (see [Reproducibility] |
| //! in the book), with testing against reference vectors. |
| //! |
| //! ## Cryptographic (secure) usage |
| //! |
| //! Where secure unpredictable generators are required, it is suggested to use |
| //! [`ChaCha12Rng`] or [`ChaCha20Rng`] and to seed via |
| //! [`SeedableRng::from_os_rng`]. |
| //! |
| //! See also the [Security] chapter in the rand book. The crate is provided |
| //! "as is", without any form of guarantee, and without a security audit. |
| //! |
| //! ## Seeding (construction) |
| //! |
| //! Generators implement the [`SeedableRng`] trait. Any method may be used, |
| //! but note that `seed_from_u64` is not suitable for usage where security is |
| //! important. Some suggestions: |
| //! |
| //! 1. With a fresh seed, **direct from the OS** (implies a syscall): |
| //! ``` |
| //! # use {rand_core::SeedableRng, rand_chacha::ChaCha12Rng}; |
| //! let rng = ChaCha12Rng::from_os_rng(); |
| //! # let _: ChaCha12Rng = rng; |
| //! ``` |
| //! 2. **From a master generator.** This could be [`rand::rng`] |
| //! (effectively a fresh seed without the need for a syscall on each usage) |
| //! or a deterministic generator such as [`ChaCha20Rng`]. |
| //! Beware that should a weak master generator be used, correlations may be |
| //! detectable between the outputs of its child generators. |
| //! ```ignore |
| //! let rng = ChaCha12Rng::from_rng(&mut rand::rng()); |
| //! ``` |
| //! |
| //! See also [Seeding RNGs] in the book. |
| //! |
| //! ## Generation |
| //! |
| //! Generators implement [`RngCore`], whose methods may be used directly to |
| //! generate unbounded integer or byte values. |
| //! ``` |
| //! use rand_core::{SeedableRng, RngCore}; |
| //! use rand_chacha::ChaCha12Rng; |
| //! |
| //! let mut rng = ChaCha12Rng::from_seed(Default::default()); |
| //! let x = rng.next_u64(); |
| //! assert_eq!(x, 0x53f955076a9af49b); |
| //! ``` |
| //! |
| //! It is often more convenient to use the [`rand::Rng`] trait, which provides |
| //! further functionality. See also the [Random Values] chapter in the book. |
