otRandomNonCryptoGetUint16#

uint16_t otRandomNonCryptoGetUint16 (void)

Generates and returns a random uint16_t value.

Parameters
N/A

Returns

  • A random uint16_t value.


Definition at line 76 of file include/openthread/random_noncrypto.h

otRandomNonCryptoGetUint8InRange#

uint8_t otRandomNonCryptoGetUint8InRange (uint8_t aMin, uint8_t aMax)

Generates and returns a random uint8_t value within a given range [aMin, aMax).

Parameters
[in]aMin

A minimum value (this value can be included in returned random result).

[in]aMax

A maximum value (this value is excluded from returned random result).

Returns

  • A random uint8_t value in the given range (i.e., aMin <= random value < aMax).

otRandomNonCryptoGetUint16InRange#

uint16_t otRandomNonCryptoGetUint16InRange (uint16_t aMin, uint16_t aMax)

Generates and returns a random uint16_t value within a given range [aMin, aMax).

Parameters
[in]aMin

A minimum value (this value can be included in returned random result).

[in]aMax

A maximum value (this value is excluded from returned random result).

Note

  • The returned random value can include the aMin value but excludes the aMax.

Returns

  • A random uint16_t value in the given range (i.e., aMin <= random value < aMax).

otRandomNonCryptoGetUint32InRange#

uint32_t otRandomNonCryptoGetUint32InRange (uint32_t aMin, uint32_t aMax)

Generates and returns a random uint32_t value within a given range [aMin, aMax).

Parameters
[in]aMin

A minimum value (this value can be included in returned random result).

[in]aMax

A maximum value (this value is excluded from returned random result).

Note

  • The returned random value can include the aMin value but excludes the aMax.

Returns

  • A random uint32_t value in the given range (i.e., aMin <= random value < aMax).

otRandomNonCryptoFillBuffer#

void otRandomNonCryptoFillBuffer (uint8_t *aBuffer, uint16_t aSize)

Fills a given buffer with random bytes.

Parameters
[out]aBuffer

A pointer to a buffer to fill with the random bytes.

[in]aSize

Size of buffer (number of bytes to fill).

otRandomNonCryptoAddJitter#

uint32_t otRandomNonCryptoAddJitter (uint32_t aValue, uint16_t aJitter)

Adds a random jitter within a given range to a given value.

Parameters
[in]aValue

A value to which the random jitter is added.

[in]aJitter

Maximum jitter. Random jitter is selected from the range [-aJitter, aJitter].

Returns

  • The given value with an added random jitter.
