5EVP_KDF-SS - The Single Step / One Step EVP_KDF implementation
6
7=head1 DESCRIPTION
8
9The EVP_KDF-SS algorithm implements the Single Step key derivation function (SSKDF).
10SSKDF derives a key using input such as a shared secret key (that was generated
11during the execution of a key establishment scheme) and fixedinfo.
12SSKDF is also informally referred to as 'Concat KDF'.
13
14=head2 Auxiliary function
15
16The implementation uses a selectable auxiliary function H, which can be one of:
17
18=over 4
19
20=item B<H(x) = hash(x, digest=md)>
21
22=item B<H(x) = HMAC_hash(x, key=salt, digest=md)>
23
24=item B<H(x) = KMACxxx(x, key=salt, custom="KDF", outlen=mac_size)>
25
26=back
27
28Both the HMAC and KMAC implementations set the key using the 'salt' value.
29The hash and HMAC also require the digest to be set.
30
31=head2 Identity
32
33"SSKDF" is the name for this implementation; it
34can be used with the EVP_KDF_fetch() function.
35
36=head2 Supported parameters
37
38The supported parameters are:
39
40=over 4
41
0c452a51 42=item "properties" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES>) <UTF8 string>
ccd7115a 43
0c452a51 44=item "digest" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST>) <UTF8 string>
ccd7115a 45
0c452a51 46=item "mac" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_MAC>) <UTF8 string>
ccd7115a 47
0c452a51 48=item "maclen" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_MAC_SIZE>) <unsigned integer>
ccd7115a 49
0c452a51 50=item "salt" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SALT>) <octet string>
ccd7115a

51
52These parameters work as described in L<EVP_KDF(3)/PARAMETERS>.
53
0c452a51 54=item "key" (B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_KEY>) <octet string>
ccd7115a
P
55
56This parameter set the shared secret that is used for key derivation.
57
0c452a51 58=item "info" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_INFO>) <octet string>
ccd7115a
P
59
60This parameter sets an optional value for fixedinfo, also known as otherinfo.

64=head1 NOTES
65
66A context for SSKDF can be obtained by calling:
67
68 EVP_KDF *kdf = EVP_KDF_fetch(NULL, "SSKDF", NULL);
660c5344 69 EVP_KDF_CTX *kctx = EVP_KDF_CTX_new(kdf);
ccd7115a 70
dfabee82 71The output length of an SSKDF is specified via the I<keylen>
86913ef7 72parameter to the L<EVP_KDF_derive(3)> function.
