  167. \&\fBDH_generate_key()\fR performs the first step of a Diffie-Hellman key
  168. exchange by generating private and public \s-1DH\s0 values. By calling
  169. \&\fBDH_compute_key()\fR or \fBDH_compute_key_padded()\fR, these are combined with
  170. the other party's public value to compute the shared key.
  171. .PP
  172. \&\fBDH_generate_key()\fR expects \fBdh\fR to contain the shared parameters
  173. \&\fBdh\->p\fR and \fBdh\->g\fR. It generates a random private \s-1DH\s0 value
  174. unless \fBdh\->priv_key\fR is already set, and computes the
  175. corresponding public value \fBdh\->pub_key\fR, which can then be
  176. published.
  177. .PP
  178. \&\fBDH_compute_key()\fR computes the shared secret from the private \s-1DH\s0 value
  179. in \fBdh\fR and the other party's public value in \fBpub_key\fR and stores
  180. it in \fBkey\fR. \fBkey\fR must point to \fBDH_size(dh)\fR bytes of memory.
  181. The padding style is \s-1RFC 5246\s0 (8.1.2) that strips leading zero bytes.
  182. It is not constant time due to the leading zero bytes being stripped.
  183. The return value should be considered public.
  184. .PP
  185. \&\fBDH_compute_key_padded()\fR is similar but stores a fixed number of bytes.
