It seems that the 0.9.8-era FIPS_rand_set_key() and FIPS_rand_seed() APIs have been removed from the 1.0.1-era FIPS Object Module. Are there replacements for these APIs? If so, what are they?
I used to use them after my FIPS-mode application forked to reset the entropy state in the child process: 0) Put the parent process in FIPS mode. 1) RAND_bytes(buf, 48); 2) fork(); 3) if child and if in FIPS mode, FIPS_rand_set_key(buf, 32) and FIPS_rand_seed(buf+32, 16); How does one do this type of thing now-a-days? Does the child process still need to be reseeded after the fork? What is the RAND_init_fips() API for? Thanks.
