4
5 EVP_MD-SHAKE, EVP_MD-KECCAK-KMAC
6 - The SHAKE / KECCAK family EVP_MD implementations
7
8 =head1 DESCRIPTION
9
10 Support for computing SHAKE or KECCAK-KMAC digests through the
11 B<EVP_MD> API.
12
13 KECCAK-KMAC is a special digest that's used by the KMAC EVP_MAC
14 implementation (see L<EVP_MAC-KMAC(7)>).
15
16 =head2 Identities
17
18 This implementation is available in the FIPS provider as well as the default
19 provider, and includes the following varieties:
20
21 =over 4
22
23 =item KECCAK-KMAC-128
24
25 Known names are "KECCAK-KMAC-128" and "KECCAK-KMAC128"
26 This is used by L<EVP_MAC-KMAC128(7)>
27
28 =item KECCAK-KMAC-256
29
30 Known names are "KECCAK-KMAC-256" and "KECCAK-KMAC256"
31 This is used by L<EVP_MAC-KMAC256(7)>
32
33 =item SHAKE-128
34
35 Known names are "SHAKE-128" and "SHAKE128"
36
37 =item SHAKE-256
38
39 Known names are "SHAKE-256" and "SHAKE256"
40
41 =back
42
43 =head2 Gettable Parameters
44
45 This implementation supports the common gettable parameters described
46 in L<EVP_MD-common(7)>.
47
48 =head2 Settable Context Parameters
49
50 These implementations support the following L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> entries,
51 settable for an B<EVP_MD_CTX> with L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_params(3)>:
52
53 =over 4
54
55 =item "xoflen" (B<OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_XOFLEN>) <unsigned integer>
56
57 Sets the digest length for extendable output functions.
58 The length of the "xoflen" parameter should not exceed that of a B<size_t>.
59
60 For backwards compatibility reasons the default xoflen length for SHAKE-128 is
61 16 (bytes) which results in a security strength of only 64 bits. To ensure the
62 maximum security strength of 128 bits, the xoflen should be set to at least 32.
63
64 For backwards compatibility reasons the default xoflen length for SHAKE-256 is
65 32 (bytes) which results in a security strength of only 128 bits. To ensure the
66 maximum security strength of 256 bits, the xoflen should be set to at least 64.
