------- Strong random data generation on a Macintosh (pre - OS X) ------
                
--      GENERAL: We aim to generate unpredictable bits without explicit
        user interaction. A general review of the problem may be found
        in RFC 1750, "Randomness Recommendations for Security", and some
        more discussion, of general and Mac-specific issues has appeared
        in "Using and Creating Cryptographic- Quality Random Numbers" by
        Jon Callas (www.merrymeet.com/jon/usingrandom.html).

        The data and entropy estimates provided below are based on my
        limited experimentation and estimates, rather than by any
        rigorous study, and the entropy estimates tend to be optimistic.
        They should not be considered absolute.

        Some of the information being collected may be correlated in
        subtle ways. That includes mouse positions, timings, and disk
        size measurements. Some obvious correlations will be eliminated
        by the programmer, but other, weaker ones may remain. The
        reliability of the code depends on such correlations being
        poorly understood, both by us and by potential interceptors.

        This package has been planned to be used with OpenSSL, v. 0.9.5.
        It requires the OpenSSL function RAND_add. 

--      OTHER WORK: Some source code and other details have been
        published elsewhere, but I haven't found any to be satisfactory
        for the Mac per se:

        * The Linux random number generator (by Theodore Ts'o, in
          drivers/char/random.c), is a carefully designed open-source
          crypto random number package. It collects data from a variety
          of sources, including mouse, keyboard and other interrupts.
          One nice feature is that it explicitly estimates the entropy
          of the data it collects. Some of its features (e.g. interrupt
          timing) cannot be reliably exported to the Mac without using
          undocumented APIs.

        * Truerand by Don P. Mitchell and Matt Blaze uses variations
          between different timing mechanisms on the same system. This
          has not been tested on the Mac, but requires preemptive
          multitasking, and is hardware-dependent, and can't be relied
          on to work well if only one oscillator is present.

        * Cryptlib's RNG for the Mac (RNDMAC.C by Peter Gutmann),
          gathers a lot of information about the machine and system
          environment. Unfortunately, much of it is constant from one
          startup to the next. In other words, the random seed could be
          the same from one day to the next. Some of the APIs are
          hardware-dependent, and not all are compatible with Carbon (OS
          X). Incidentally, the EGD library is based on the UNIX entropy
          gathering methods in cryptlib, and isn't suitable for MacOS
          either.

        * Mozilla (and perhaps earlier versions of Netscape) uses the
          time of day (in seconds) and an uninitialized local variable
          to seed the random number generator. The time of day is known
          to an outside interceptor (to within the accuracy of the
          system clock). The uninitialized variable could easily be
          identical between subsequent launches of an application, if it
          is reached through the same path.

        * OpenSSL provides the function RAND_screen(), by G. van
          Oosten, which hashes the contents of the screen to generate a
          seed. This is not useful for an extension or for an
          application which launches at startup time, since the screen
          is likely to look identical from one launch to the next. This
          method is also rather slow.

        * Using variations in disk drive seek times has been proposed
          (Davis, Ihaka and Fenstermacher, world.std.com/~dtd/;
          Jakobsson, Shriver, Hillyer and Juels,
          www.bell-labs.com/user/shriver/random.html). These variations
          appear to be due to air turbulence inside the disk drive
          mechanism, and are very strongly unpredictable. Unfortunately
          this technique is slow, and some implementations of it may be
          patented (see Shriver's page above.) It of course cannot be
          used with a RAM disk.

--      TIMING: On the 601 PowerPC the time base register is guaranteed
        to change at least once every 10 addi instructions, i.e. 10
        cycles. On a 60 MHz machine (slowest PowerPC) this translates to
        a resolution of 1/6 usec. Newer machines seem to be using a 10
        cycle resolution as well.
        
        For 68K Macs, the Microseconds() call may be used. See Develop
        issue 29 on the Apple developer site
        (developer.apple.com/dev/techsupport/develop/issue29/minow.html)
        for information on its accuracy and resolution. The code below
        has been tested only on PowerPC based machines.

        The time from machine startup to the launch of an application in
        the startup folder has a variance of about 1.6 msec on a new G4
        machine with a defragmented and optimized disk, most extensions
        off and no icons on the desktop. This can be reasonably taken as
        a lower bound on the variance. Most of this variation is likely
        due to disk seek time variability. The distribution of startup
        times is probably not entirely even or uncorrelated. This needs
        to be investigated, but I am guessing that it not a majpor
        problem. Entropy = log2 (1600/0.166) ~= 13 bits on a 60 MHz
        machine, ~16 bits for a 450 MHz machine.

        User-launched application startup times will have a variance of
        a second or more relative to machine startup time. Entropy >~22
        bits.

        Machine startup time is available with a 1-second resolution. It
        is predictable to no better a minute or two, in the case of
        people who show up punctually to work at the same time and
        immediately start their computer. Using the scheduled startup
        feature (when available) will cause the machine to start up at
        the same time every day, making the value predictable. Entropy
        >~7 bits, or 0 bits with scheduled startup.

        The time of day is of course known to an outsider and thus has 0
        entropy if the system clock is regularly calibrated.

--      KEY TIMING: A  very fast typist (120 wpm) will have a typical
        inter-key timing interval of 100 msec. We can assume a variance
        of no less than 2 msec -- maybe. Do good typists have a constant
        rhythm, like drummers? Since what we measure is not the
        key-generated interrupt but the time at which the key event was
        taken off the event queue, our resolution is roughly the time
        between process switches, at best 1 tick (17 msec). I  therefore
        consider this technique questionable and not very useful for
        obtaining high entropy data on the Mac.

--      MOUSE POSITION AND TIMING: The high bits of the mouse position
        are far from arbitrary, since the mouse tends to stay in a few
        limited areas of the screen. I am guessing that the position of
        the mouse is arbitrary within a 6 pixel square. Since the mouse
        stays still for long periods of time, it should be sampled only
        after it was moved, to avoid correlated data. This gives an
        entropy of log2(6*6) ~= 5 bits per measurement.

        The time during which the mouse stays still can vary from zero
        to, say, 5 seconds (occasionally longer). If the still time is
        measured by sampling the mouse during null events, and null
        events are received once per tick, its resolution is 1/60th of a
        second, giving an entropy of log2 (60*5) ~= 8 bits per
        measurement. Since the distribution of still times is uneven,
        this estimate is on the high side.

        For simplicity and compatibility across system versions, the
        mouse is to be sampled explicitly (e.g. in the event loop),
        rather than in a time manager task.

--      STARTUP DISK TOTAL FILE SIZE: Varies typically by at least 20k
        from one startup to the next, with 'minimal' computer use. Won't
        vary at all if machine is started again immediately after
        startup (unless virtual memory is on), but any application which
        uses the web and caches information to disk is likely to cause
        this much variation or more. The variation is probably not
        random, but I don't know in what way. File sizes tend to be
        divisible by 4 bytes since file format fields are often
        long-aligned. Entropy > log2 (20000/4) ~= 12 bits.
        
--      STARTUP DISK FIRST AVAILABLE ALLOCATION BLOCK: As the volume
        gets fragmented this could be anywhere in principle. In a
        perfectly unfragmented volume this will be strongly correlated
        with the total file size on the disk. With more fragmentation
        comes less certainty. I took the variation in this value to be
        1/8 of the total file size on the volume.

--      SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: The code here requires System 7.0 and above
        (for Gestalt and Microseconds calls). All the calls used are
        Carbon-compatible.
