135.Sh DESCRIPTION
136The
137.Li krb5_checksum
138structure holds a Kerberos checksum.
139There is no component inside
140.Li krb5_checksum
141that is directly referable.
142.Pp
143The functions are used to create and verify checksums.
144.Fn krb5_create_checksum
145creates a checksum of the specified data, and puts it in
146.Fa result .
147If
148.Fa crypto
149is
150.Dv NULL ,
151.Fa usage_or_type
152specifies the checksum type to use; it must not be keyed. Otherwise
153.Fa crypto
154is an encryption context created by
155.Fn krb5_crypto_init ,
156and
157.Fa usage_or_type
158specifies a key-usage.
159.Pp
160.Fn krb5_verify_checksum
161verifies the
162.Fa checksum
163against the provided data.
164.Pp
165.Fn krb5_checksum_is_collision_proof
166returns true is the specified checksum is collision proof (that it's
167very unlikely that two strings has the same hash value, and that it's
168hard to find two strings that has the same hash). Examples of
169collision proof checksums are MD5, and SHA1, while CRC32 is not.
170.Pp
171.Fn krb5_checksum_is_keyed
172returns true if the specified checksum type is keyed (that the hash
173value is a function of both the data, and a separate key). Examples of
174keyed hash algorithms are HMAC-SHA1-DES3, and RSA-MD5-DES. The
175.Dq plain
176hash functions MD5, and SHA1 are not keyed.
177.Pp
178.Fn krb5_crypto_get_checksum_type
179returns the checksum type that will be used when creating a checksum for the given
180.Fa crypto
181context.
182This function is useful in combination with
183.Fn krb5_checksumsize
184when you want to know the size a checksum will
185use when you create it.
186.Pp
187.Fn krb5_cksumtype_valid
188returns 0 or an error if the checksumtype is implemented and not
189currently disabled in this kerberos library.
190.Pp
191.Fn krb5_checksumsize
192returns the size of the outdata of checksum function.
193.Pp
194.Fn krb5_copy_checksum
195returns a copy of the checksum
196.Fn krb5_free_checksum
197should use used to free the
198.Fa new
199checksum.
200.Pp
201.Fn krb5_free_checksum
202free the checksum and the content of the checksum.
203.Pp
204.Fn krb5_free_checksum_contents
205frees the content of checksum in
206.Fa cksum .
207.Pp
208.Fn krb5_hmac
209calculates the HMAC over
210.Fa data
211(with length
212.Fa len )
213using the keyusage
214.Fa usage
215and keyblock
216.Fa key .
217Note that keyusage is not always used in checksums.
218.Pp
219.Nm krb5_checksum_disable
220globally disables the checksum type.
