+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+The EVP KDF routines are a high\-level interface to Key Derivation Function
+algorithms and should be used instead of algorithm\-specific functions.
+.PP
+After creating a \fBEVP_KDF_CTX\fR for the required algorithm using
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_new()\fR, inputs to the algorithm are supplied either by
+passing them as part of the \fBEVP_KDF_derive()\fR call or using calls
+to \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_set_params()\fR before calling \fBEVP_KDF_derive()\fR to derive
+the key.
+.SS Types
+.IX Subsection "Types"
+\&\fBEVP_KDF\fR is a type that holds the implementation of a KDF.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX\fR is a context type that holds the algorithm inputs.
+.SS "Algorithm implementation fetching"
+.IX Subsection "Algorithm implementation fetching"
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_fetch()\fR fetches an implementation of a KDF \fIalgorithm\fR, given
+a library context \fIlibctx\fR and a set of \fIproperties\fR.
+See "ALGORITHM FETCHING" in \fBcrypto\fR\|(7) for further information.
+.PP
+See "Key Derivation Function (KDF)" 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
+KDF.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_free()\fR frees a fetched algorithm.
+NULL 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 KDF implementation \fIkdf\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_free()\fR frees up the context \fIctx\fR. If \fIctx\fR is NULL, nothing
+is done.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_CTX_kdf()\fR returns the \fBEVP_KDF\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\*(Aqt passed down is
+defined by the implementation.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_gettable_params()\fR returns an \fBOSSL_PARAM\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 \fBOSSL_PARAM\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\*(Aqs current state.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_settable_ctx_params()\fR and \fBEVP_KDF_CTX_settable_params()\fR return
+constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\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\*(Aqs 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 \fBSIZE_MAX\fR otherwise. If an error occurs then 0 is returned.
+For some algorithms an error may result if input parameters necessary to
+calculate a fixed output size have not yet been supplied.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_is_a()\fR returns 1 if \fIkdf\fR is an implementation of an
+algorithm that\*(Aqs identifiable with \fIname\fR, otherwise 0.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_get0_provider()\fR returns the provider that holds the implementation
+of the given \fIkdf\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_do_all_provided()\fR traverses all KDF implemented by all activated
+providers in the given library context \fIlibctx\fR, and for each of the
+implementations, calls the given function \fIfn\fR with the implementation method
+and the given \fIarg\fR as argument.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_get0_name()\fR return the name of the given KDF. For fetched KDFs
+with multiple names, only one of them is returned; it\*(Aqs
+recommended to use \fBEVP_KDF_names_do_all()\fR instead.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_names_do_all()\fR traverses all names for \fIkdf\fR, and calls
+\&\fIfn\fR with each name and \fIdata\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_KDF_get0_description()\fR returns a description of the \fIkdf\fR, meant for
+display and human consumption. The description is at the discretion of
+the \fIkdf\fR implementation.
+.SH PARAMETERS
+.IX Header "PARAMETERS"

+.IP """salt"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_SALT\fR) <octet string>" 4
+.IX Item """salt"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SALT) <octet string>"
+Some KDF implementations can take a non\-secret unique cryptographic salt.
+For those KDF implementations that support it, this parameter sets the salt.
+.Sp
+The default value, if any, is implementation dependent.
+.IP """iter"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_ITER\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
+.IX Item """iter"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_ITER) <unsigned integer>"
+Some KDF implementations require an iteration count.

+.IP """properties"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
+.IX Item """properties"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES) <UTF8 string>"
+.PD 0
+.IP """mac"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_MAC\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
+.IX Item """mac"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_MAC) <UTF8 string>"
+.IP """digest"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
+.IX Item """digest"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST) <UTF8 string>"
+.IP """cipher"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_CIPHER\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
+.IX Item """cipher"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_CIPHER) <UTF8 string>"
+.PD
+For KDF implementations that use an underlying computation MAC, digest or
+cipher, these parameters set what the algorithm should be.
+.Sp
+The value is always the name of the intended algorithm,
+or the properties.
+.Sp
+Note that not all algorithms may support all possible underlying
+implementations.
+.IP """key"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_KEY\fR) <octet string>" 4
+.IX Item """key"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_KEY) <octet string>"
+Some KDF implementations require a key.
+For those KDF implementations that support it, this octet string parameter
+sets the key.
+.IP """info"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_INFO\fR) <octet string>" 4
+.IX Item """info"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_INFO) <octet string>"
+Some KDF implementations, such as \fBEVP_KDF\-HKDF\fR\|(7), take an \*(Aqinfo\*(Aq parameter
+for binding the derived key material
+to application\- and context\-specific information.
+This parameter sets the info, fixed info, other info or shared info argument.
+You can specify this parameter multiple times, and each instance will
+be concatenated to form the final value.
+.IP """maclen"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_MAC_SIZE\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
+.IX Item """maclen"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_MAC_SIZE) <unsigned integer>"
+Used by implementations that use a MAC with a variable output size (KMAC).

+Memory\-hard password\-based KDF algorithms, such as scrypt, use an amount of
+memory that depends on the load factors provided as input.
+For those KDF implementations that support it, this \fBuint64_t\fR parameter sets
+an upper limit on the amount of memory that may be consumed while performing
+a key derivation.
+If this memory usage limit is exceeded because the load factors are chosen
+too high, the key derivation will fail.
+.Sp
+The default value is implementation dependent.
+The memory size must never exceed what can be given with a \fBsize_t\fR.
