[openssl-dev] Plea for a new public OpenSSL RNG API

[Salz, Rich]

➢ An other problem with the current implemenation is that the
➢     randomness parameter that's now given to RAND_add() is just
➢     ignored, it assumes it's the same as the length.
    
For what it’s worth, this was done deliberately, make RAND_add and RAND_seed equivalent.

I am skeptical of the ability to get that estimate correct.

Someone on GH there is a conversation thread about turning that into a percentage, which seems like the best thing to do for any new API.
