See \*(L"\s-1ALGORITHM FETCHING\*(R"\s0 in \fBcrypto\fR\|(7) for further information. .PP See \*(L"Key Derivation Function (\s-1KDF\s0)\*(R" 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 \&\s-1KDF.\s0 .PP \&\fBEVP_KDF_free()\fR frees a fetched algorithm. \&\s-1NULL\s0 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 \s-1KDF\s0 implementation \fIkdf\fR. .PP \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_free()\fR frees up the context \fIctx\fR. If \fIctx\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 nothing is done. .PP \&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_kdf()\fR returns the \fB\s-1EVP_KDF\s0\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 \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\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 \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\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 \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\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 \fB\s-1SIZE_MAX\s0\fR otherwise.
