The +subroutines in question instrument these references for purposes of +gathering randomness for random number generator. In order to make it +bus-bound a 'flush cache line' instruction is used between probes. In +addition probes are added to B<vector> elements in atomic or +interlocked manner, which should contribute additional noise on +multi-processor systems. This also means that B<vector[num]> should be +zeroed upon invocation (if you want to retrieve actual probe values). + +OPENSSL_instrument_bus() performs B<num> probes and records the number of +oscillator cycles every probe took. + +OPENSSL_instrument_bus2() on the other hand B<accumulates> consecutive +probes with the same value, i.e. in a way it records duration of +periods when probe values appeared deterministic. The subroutine +performs at most B<max> probes in attempt to fill the B<vector[num]>, +with B<max> value of 0 meaning "as many as it takes." + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +Return value of 0 indicates that CPU is not capable of performing the +benchmark, either because oscillator counter or 'flush cache line' is +not available on current platform. For reference, on x86 'flush cache +line' was introduced with the SSE2 extensions. + +Otherwise number of recorded values is returned. + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2011-2018 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
