- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
- The EVP KDF routines are a high-level interface to Key Derivation Function
- algorithms and should be used instead of algorithm-specific functions.
- .PP
- After creating a \fBEVP_KDF_CTX\fR for the required algorithm using
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_new()\fR, inputs to the algorithm are supplied either by
- passing them as part of the \fBEVP_KDF_derive()\fR call or using calls
- to \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_set_params()\fR before calling \fBEVP_KDF_derive()\fR to derive
- the key.
- .SS Types
- .IX Subsection "Types"
- \&\fBEVP_KDF\fR is a type that holds the implementation of a KDF.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX\fR is a context type that holds the algorithm inputs.
- .SS "Algorithm implementation fetching"
- .IX Subsection "Algorithm implementation fetching"
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_fetch()\fR fetches an implementation of a KDF \fIalgorithm\fR, given
- a library context \fIlibctx\fR and a set of \fIproperties\fR.
- See "ALGORITHM FETCHING" in \fBcrypto\fR\|(7) for further information.
- .PP
- See "Key Derivation Function (KDF)" in \fBOSSL_PROVIDER\-default\fR\|(7) for the lists of
- algorithms supported by the default provider.
- .PP
- The returned value must eventually be freed with
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_free\fR\|(3).
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_up_ref()\fR increments the reference count of an already fetched
- KDF.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_free()\fR frees a fetched algorithm.
- NULL is a valid parameter, for which this function is a no-op.
- .SS "Context manipulation functions"
- .IX Subsection "Context manipulation functions"
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_new()\fR creates a new context for the KDF implementation \fIkdf\fR.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_free()\fR frees up the context \fIctx\fR. If \fIctx\fR is NULL, nothing
- is done.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_kdf()\fR returns the \fBEVP_KDF\fR associated with the context
- \&\fIctx\fR.
- .SS "Computing functions"
- .IX Subsection "Computing functions"
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_reset()\fR resets the context to the default state as if the context
- had just been created.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_derive()\fR processes any parameters in \fIParams\fR and then derives
- \&\fIkeylen\fR bytes of key material and places it in the \fIkey\fR buffer.
- If the algorithm produces a fixed amount of output then an error will
- occur unless the \fIkeylen\fR parameter is equal to that output size,
- as returned by \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_get_kdf_size()\fR.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_get_params()\fR retrieves details about the implementation
- \&\fIkdf\fR.
- The set of parameters given with \fIparams\fR determine exactly what
- parameters should be retrieved.
- Note that a parameter that is unknown in the underlying context is
- simply ignored.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_get_params()\fR retrieves chosen parameters, given the
- context \fIctx\fR and its underlying context.
- The set of parameters given with \fIparams\fR determine exactly what
- parameters should be retrieved.
- Note that a parameter that is unknown in the underlying context is
- simply ignored.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_set_params()\fR passes chosen parameters to the underlying
- context, given a context \fIctx\fR.
- The set of parameters given with \fIparams\fR determine exactly what
- parameters are passed down.
- Note that a parameter that is unknown in the underlying context is
- simply ignored.
- Also, what happens when a needed parameter isn't passed down is
- defined by the implementation.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_gettable_params()\fR returns an \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array that describes
- the retrievable and settable parameters. \fBEVP_KDF_gettable_params()\fR
- returns parameters that can be used with \fBEVP_KDF_get_params()\fR.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_gettable_ctx_params()\fR and \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_gettable_params()\fR
- return constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) arrays that describe the retrievable
- parameters that can be used with \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_get_params()\fR.
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_gettable_ctx_params()\fR returns the parameters that can be retrieved
- from the algorithm, whereas \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_gettable_params()\fR returns
- the parameters that can be retrieved in the context's current state.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_settable_ctx_params()\fR and \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_settable_params()\fR return
- constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) arrays that describe the settable parameters that
- can be used with \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_set_params()\fR. \fBEVP_KDF_settable_ctx_params()\fR
- returns the parameters that can be retrieved from the algorithm,
- whereas \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_settable_params()\fR returns the parameters that can
- be retrieved in the context's current state.
- .SS "Information functions"
- .IX Subsection "Information functions"
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_get_kdf_size()\fR returns the output size if the algorithm produces a fixed amount
- of output and \fBSIZE_MAX\fR otherwise. If an error occurs then 0 is returned.
- For some algorithms an error may result if input parameters necessary to
- calculate a fixed output size have not yet been supplied.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_is_a()\fR returns 1 if \fIkdf\fR is an implementation of an
- algorithm that's identifiable with \fIname\fR, otherwise 0.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_get0_provider()\fR returns the provider that holds the implementation
- of the given \fIkdf\fR.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_do_all_provided()\fR traverses all KDF implemented by all activated
- providers in the given library context \fIlibctx\fR, and for each of the
- implementations, calls the given function \fIfn\fR with the implementation method
- and the given \fIarg\fR as argument.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_get0_name()\fR return the name of the given KDF. For fetched KDFs
- with multiple names, only one of them is returned; it's
- recommended to use \fBEVP_KDF_names_do_all()\fR instead.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_names_do_all()\fR traverses all names for \fIkdf\fR, and calls
- \&\fIfn\fR with each name and \fIdata\fR.
- .PP
- \&\fBEVP_KDF_get0_description()\fR returns a description of the \fIkdf\fR, meant for
- display and human consumption. The description is at the discretion of
- the \fIkdf\fR implementation.

- .IP """iter"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_ITER\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
- .IX Item """iter"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_ITER) <unsigned integer>"
- Some KDF implementations require an iteration count.

- .IX Item """digest"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST) <UTF8 string>"
- .IP """cipher"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_CIPHER\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
- .IX Item """cipher"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_CIPHER) <UTF8 string>"
- .PD
- For KDF implementations that use an underlying computation MAC, digest or
- cipher, these parameters set what the algorithm should be.
- .Sp
- The value is always the name of the intended algorithm,
- or the properties.
- .Sp
- Note that not all algorithms may support all possible underlying
- implementations.
- .IP """key"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_KEY\fR) <octet string>" 4
- .IX Item """key"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_KEY) <octet string>"
- Some KDF implementations require a key.
- For those KDF implementations that support it, this octet string parameter
- sets the key.
- .IP """info"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_INFO\fR) <octet string>" 4
- .IX Item """info"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_INFO) <octet string>"
- Some KDF implementations, such as \fBEVP_KDF\-HKDF\fR\|(7), take an 'info' parameter
- for binding the derived key material
- to application\- and context-specific information.
- This parameter sets the info, fixed info, other info or shared info argument.
- You can specify this parameter multiple times, and each instance will
- be concatenated to form the final value.
- .IP """maclen"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_MAC_SIZE\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4

- .IX Item """maxmem_bytes"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_MAXMEM) <unsigned integer>"
- Memory-hard password-based KDF algorithms, such as scrypt, use an amount of
- memory that depends on the load factors provided as input.
- For those KDF implementations that support it, this \fBuint64_t\fR parameter sets
- an upper limit on the amount of memory that may be consumed while performing
- a key derivation.
- If this memory usage limit is exceeded because the load factors are chosen
- too high, the key derivation will fail.
- .Sp
- The default value is implementation dependent.
- The memory size must never exceed what can be given with a \fBsize_t\fR.

- return value of 0 means that the callback was not called for any names.
- .PP
- The remaining functions return 1 for success and 0 or a negative value for
- failure. In particular, a return value of \-2 indicates the operation is not
- supported by the KDF algorithm.
- .SH NOTES
