NAME
       Tspi_TPM_StirRandom - add entropy to the	TPM random number generator

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<tss/platform.h>
       #include	<tss/tcpa_defines.h>
       #include	<tss/tcpa_typedef.h>
       #include	<tss/tcpa_struct.h>
       #include	<tss/tss_typedef.h>
       #include	<tss/tss_structs.h>
       #include	<tss/tspi.h>

       TSS_RESULT Tspi_TPM_StirRandom(TSS_HTPM hTPM, UINT32 ulEntropyDataLength, BYTE* rgbEntropyData);

DESCRIPTION
       Tspi_TPM_StirRandom adds	entropy	to the TPM random number generator for
       the  purpose  of	generating better random numbers. The entropy variable
       should assigned an appropriately	seeded random number before this func-
       tion is called.

PARAMETERS
   hTPM
       The hTPM	parameter is used to specify the handle	of the TPM object. The
       command to get the TPM to test itself will be sent here.

   ulEntropyDataLength
       The ulEntropyDataLength parameter is the	length in bytes	of the	rgbEn-
       tropyData parameter.

   rgbEntropyData
       The rgbEntropyData parameter is a pointer to the	entropy	data.

RETURN CODES
       Tspi_TPM_StirRandom  returns  TSS_SUCCESS  on success, otherwise	one of
       the following values is returned:

       TSS_E_INVALID_HANDLE
	      hTPM is not a valid handle.

       TSS_E_INTERNAL_ERROR
	      An internal SW error has been detected.

       TSS_E_BAD_PARAMETER
	      One or more parameters is	bad.

CONFORMING TO
       Tspi_TPM_StirRandom conforms to the Trusted  Computing  Group  Software
       Specification version 1.1 Golden
