Struct tor_netdoc::doc::netstatus::SharedRandStatus

#[non_exhaustive]
pub struct SharedRandStatus {
    pub n_reveals: u8,
    pub value: SharedRandVal,
    pub timestamp: Option<SystemTime>,
}

A shared-random value produced by the directory authorities, along with meta-information about that value.

Fields (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive structs could have additional fields added in future. Therefore, non-exhaustive structs cannot be constructed in external crates using the traditional Struct { .. } syntax; cannot be matched against without a wildcard ..; and struct update syntax will not work.

n_reveals: u8

Available on crate feature dangerous-expose-struct-fields only.

How many authorities revealed shares that contributed to this value.

value: SharedRandVal

Available on crate feature dangerous-expose-struct-fields only.

The current random value.

The properties of the secure shared-random system guarantee that this value isn’t predictable before it first becomes live, and that a hostile party could not have forced it to have any more than a small number of possible random values.

timestamp: Option<SystemTime>

Available on crate feature dangerous-expose-struct-fields only.

The time when this SharedRandVal becomes (or became) the latest.

(This is added per proposal 342, assuming that gets accepted.)
