A.2.4 Continuous RNG Tests
The continuous random number test is only used in FIPS mode. The RNG
generates blocks of 128 bit size; the first block generated per
context is saved in the context and another block is generated to be
returned to the caller. Each block is compared against the saved
block and then stored in the context. If a duplicated block is
detected an error is signaled and the library is put into the
“Fatal-Error” state.
