=head1 NAME
RAND_cleanup - erase the PRNG state
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/rand.h>
#if OPENSSL_API_COMPAT < 0x10100000L
void RAND_cleanup(void)
#endif
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Prior to OpenSSL 1.1.0, RAND_cleanup() released all resources used by
the PRNG. As of version 1.1.0, it does nothing and should not be called,
since no explicit initialisation or de-initialisation is necessary. See
L<OPENSSL_init_crypto(3)>.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
RAND_cleanup() returns no value.
=head1 HISTORY
RAND_cleanup() was deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0; do not use it.
See L<OPENSSL_init_crypto(3)>
