+=head1 NAME
+
+RAND_bytes, RAND_priv_bytes, RAND_pseudo_bytes - generate random data
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/rand.h>
+
+ int RAND_bytes(unsigned char *buf, int num);
+ int RAND_priv_bytes(unsigned char *buf, int num);
+
+Deprecated:
+
+ #if OPENSSL_API_COMPAT < 0x10100000L
+ int RAND_pseudo_bytes(unsigned char *buf, int num);
+ #endif
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+RAND_bytes() generates B<num> random bytes using a cryptographically
+secure pseudo random generator (CSPRNG) and stores them in B<buf>.
+
+RAND_priv_bytes() has the same semantics as RAND_bytes().  It is intended to
+be used for generating values that should remain private. If using the
+default RAND_METHOD, this function uses a separate "private" PRNG
+instance so that a compromise of the "public" PRNG instance will not
+affect the secrecy of these private values, as described in L<RAND(7)>
+and L<RAND_DRBG(7)>.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+By default, the OpenSSL CSPRNG supports a security level of 256 bits, provided it
+was able to seed itself from a trusted entropy source.
+On all major platforms supported by OpenSSL (including the Unix-like platforms
+and Windows), OpenSSL is configured to automatically seed the CSPRNG on first use
+using the operating systems's random generator.
+
+If the entropy source fails or is not available, the CSPRNG will enter an
+error state and refuse to generate random bytes. For that reason, it is important
+to always check the error return value of RAND_bytes() and RAND_priv_bytes() and
+not take randomness for granted.
+
+On other platforms, there might not be a trusted entropy source available
+or OpenSSL might have been explicitly configured to use different entropy sources.
+If you are in doubt about the quality of the entropy source, don't hesitate to ask
+your operating system vendor or post a question on GitHub or the openssl-users
+mailing list.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+RAND_bytes() and RAND_priv_bytes()
+return 1 on success, -1 if not supported by the current
+RAND method, or 0 on other failure. The error code can be
+obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
