-=head1 NAME
-
-EVP_KDF_SSHKDF - The SSHKDF EVP_KDF implementation
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-Support for computing the B<SSHKDF> KDF through the B<EVP_KDF> API.
-
-The EVP_KDF_SSHKDF algorithm implements the SSHKDF key derivation function.
-It is defined in RFC 4253, section 7.2 and is used by SSH to derive IVs,
-encryption keys and integrity keys.
-Five inputs are required to perform key derivation: The hashing function
-(for example SHA256), the Initial Key, the Exchange Hash, the Session ID,
-and the derivation key type.
-
-=head2 Numeric identity
-
-B<EVP_KDF_SSHKDF> is the numeric identity for this implementation; it
-can be used with the EVP_KDF_CTX_new_id() function.
-
-=head2 Supported controls
-
-The supported controls are:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_MD>
-
-=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_KEY>
-
-These controls work as described in L<EVP_KDF_CTX(3)/CONTROLS>.
-
-=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_SSHKDF_XCGHASH>
-
-=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_SSHKDF_SESSION_ID>
-
-These controls expect two arguments: C<unsigned char *buffer>, C<size_t length>
-
-They set the respective values to the first B<length> bytes of the buffer
-B<buffer>. If a value is already set, the contents are replaced.
-
-EVP_KDF_ctrl_str() takes two type strings for these controls:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item "xcghash"
-
-=item "session_id"
-
-The value string is used as is.
-
-=item "hexxcghash"
-
-=item "hexsession_id"
-
-The value string is expected to be a hexadecimal number, which will be
-decoded before being passed on as the control value.
-
-=back
-
-=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_SSHKDF_TYPE>
-
-This control expects one argument: C<int mode>
-
-Sets the type for the SSHHKDF operation. There are six supported types:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item EVP_KDF_SSHKDF_TYPE_INITIAL_IV_CLI_TO_SRV
-
-The Initial IV from client to server.
-A single char of value 65 (ASCII char 'A').
-
-=item EVP_KDF_SSHKDF_TYPE_INITIAL_IV_SRV_TO_CLI
-
-The Initial IV from server to client
-A single char of value 66 (ASCII char 'B').
-
-=item EVP_KDF_SSHKDF_TYPE_ENCRYPTION_KEY_CLI_TO_SRV
-
-The Encryption Key from client to server
-A single char of value 67 (ASCII char 'C').
-
-=item EVP_KDF_SSHKDF_TYPE_ENCRYPTION_KEY_SRV_TO_CLI
-
-The Encryption Key from server to client
-A single char of value 68 (ASCII char 'D').
-
-=item EVP_KDF_SSHKDF_TYPE_INTEGRITY_KEY_CLI_TO_SRV
-
-The Integrity Key from client to server
-A single char of value 69 (ASCII char 'E').
-
-=item EVP_KDF_SSHKDF_TYPE_INTEGRITY_KEY_SRV_TO_CLI
-
-The Integrity Key from client to server
-A single char of value 70 (ASCII char 'F').
-
-=back
-
-EVP_KDF_ctrl_str() type string: "type"
-
-The value is a string of length one character. The only valid values
-are the numerical values of the ASCII characters: "A" (65) to "F" (70).
-
-=back
-
-=head1 NOTES
-
-A context for SSHKDF can be obtained by calling:
-
- EVP_KDF_CTX *kctx = EVP_KDF_CTX_new_id(EVP_KDF_SSHKDF);
-
-The output length of the SSHKDF derivation is specified via the C<keylen>
-parameter to the L<EVP_KDF_derive(3)> function.
-Since the SSHKDF output length is variable, calling L<EVP_KDF_size()>
-to obtain the requisite length is not meaningful. The caller must
-allocate a buffer of the desired length, and pass that buffer to the
-L<EVP_KDF_derive(3)> function along with the desired length.
-
-=head1 EXAMPLES
-
-This example derives an 8 byte IV using SHA-256 with a 1K "key" and appropriate
-"xcghash" and "session_id" values:
-
- EVP_KDF_CTX *kctx;
- unsigned char key[1024] = "01234...";
- unsigned char xcghash[32] = "012345...";
- unsigned char session_id[32] = "012345...";
- unsigned char out[8];
- size_t outlen = sizeof(out);
- kctx = EVP_KDF_CTX_new_id(EVP_KDF_SSHKDF);
-
- if (EVP_KDF_CTX_set_md(kctx, EVP_sha256()) <= 0)
- /* Error */
- if (EVP_KDF_CTX_set1_key(kctx, key, 1024) <= 0)
- /* Error */
- if (EVP_KDF_CTX_set1_sshkdf_xcghash(kctx, xcghash, 32) <= 0)
- /* Error */
- if (EVP_KDF_CTX_set1_sshkdf_session_id(kctx, session_id, 32) <= 0)
- /* Error */
- if (EVP_KDF_CTX_set_sshkdf_type(kctx,
- EVP_KDF_SSHKDF_TYPE_INITIAL_IV_CLI_TO_SRV) <= 0)
- /* Error */
- if (EVP_KDF_derive(kctx, out, &outlen) <= 0)
- /* Error */
