Parameters

[in]	hSession	Handle of a valid PKCS #11 session.
[out]	RandomData	Pointer to location that random data will be placed. It is the responsiblity of the application to allocate this memory.
[in]	ulRandomLen	Length of data (in bytes) to be generated.

Returns

CKR_OK if successful. Else, see PKCS #11 specification for more information.
