.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

Title "EVP_KDF-X963 7" For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.
.nh EVP_KDF-X963 - The X9.63-2001 EVP_KDF implementation Header "DESCRIPTION" The \s-1EVP_KDF-X963\s0 algorithm implements the key derivation function (X963KDF). X963KDF is used by Cryptographic Message Syntax (\s-1CMS\s0) for \s-1EC\s0 KeyAgreement, to derive a key using input such as a shared secret key and shared info. Subsection "Identity" \*(L"X963KDF\*(R" is the name for this implementation; it can be used with the EVP_KDF_fetch() function. Subsection "Supported parameters" The supported parameters are: Item "properties (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES) <UTF8 string>"

0 Item "digest (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST) <UTF8 string>"

These parameters work as described in \*(L"\s-1PARAMETERS\*(R"\s0 in \s-1EVP_KDF\s0\|(3). Item "key (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_KEY) <octet string>" The shared secret used for key derivation. This parameter sets the secret. Item "info (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_INFO) <octet string>" This parameter specifies an optional value for shared info.

Header "NOTES" X963KDF is very similar to the \s-1SSKDF\s0 that uses a digest as the auxiliary function, X963KDF appends the counter to the secret, whereas \s-1SSKDF\s0 prepends the counter.

A context for X963KDF can be obtained by calling:

.Vb 2 EVP_KDF *kdf = EVP_KDF_fetch(NULL, "X963KDF", NULL); EVP_KDF_CTX *kctx = EVP_KDF_CTX_new(kdf); .Ve

The output length of an X963KDF is specified via the keylen parameter to the EVP_KDF_derive\|(3) function.

Header "EXAMPLES" This example derives 10 bytes, with the secret key \*(L"secret\*(R" and sharedinfo value \*(L"label\*(R":

.Vb 4 EVP_KDF *kdf; EVP_KDF_CTX *kctx; unsigned char out[10]; OSSL_PARAM params[4], *p = params; \& kdf = EVP_KDF_fetch(NULL, "X963KDF", NULL); kctx = EVP_KDF_CTX_new(kdf); EVP_KDF_free(kdf); \& *p++ = OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_string(OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST, SN_sha256, strlen(SN_sha256)); *p++ = OSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_string(OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SECRET, "secret", (size_t)6); *p++ = OSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_string(OSSL_KDF_PARAM_INFO, "label", (size_t)5); *p = OSSL_PARAM_construct_end(); if (EVP_KDF_derive(kctx, out, sizeof(out), params) <= 0) { error("EVP_KDF_derive"); } \& EVP_KDF_CTX_free(kctx); .Ve
