9=head1 SYNOPSIS
10
11 #include <openssl/kdf.h>
12
13 int EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_tls1_prf_md(EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx, const EVP_MD *md);
14 int EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_tls1_prf_secret(EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx,
15                                       unsigned char *sec, int seclen);
16 int EVP_PKEY_CTX_add1_tls1_prf_seed(EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx,
17                                     unsigned char *seed, int seedlen);

19=head1 DESCRIPTION
20
21The B<EVP_PKEY_TLS1_PRF> algorithm implements the PRF key derivation function for
22TLS. It has no associated private key and only implements key derivation
23using L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)>.
24
25EVP_PKEY_set_tls1_prf_md() sets the message digest associated with the
26TLS PRF. EVP_md5_sha1() is treated as a special case which uses the PRF
27algorithm using both B<MD5> and B<SHA1> as used in TLS 1.0 and 1.1.
28
29EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_tls1_prf_secret() sets the secret value of the TLS PRF
30to B<seclen> bytes of the buffer B<sec>. Any existing secret value is replaced
31and any seed is reset.
32
33EVP_PKEY_CTX_add1_tls1_prf_seed() sets the seed to B<seedlen> bytes of B<seed>.
34If a seed is already set it is appended to the existing value.
35
36=head1 STRING CTRLS
37
38The TLS PRF also supports string based control operations using
39L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl_str(3)>.
40The B<type> parameter "md" uses the supplied B<value> as the name of the digest
41algorithm to use.
42The B<type> parameters "secret" and "seed" use the supplied B<value> parameter
43as a secret or seed value.
44The names "hexsecret" and "hexseed" are similar except they take a hex string
45which is converted to binary.
46
47=head1 NOTES
48
49A context for the TLS PRF can be obtained by calling:
50
51 EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(EVP_PKEY_TLS1_PRF, NULL);
52
53The digest, secret value and seed must be set before a key is derived or an
54error occurs.
55
56The total length of all seeds cannot exceed 1024 bytes in length: this should
57be more than enough for any normal use of the TLS PRF.
58
59The output length of the PRF is specified by the length parameter in the
60EVP_PKEY_derive() function. Since the output length is variable, setting
61the buffer to B<NULL> is not meaningful for the TLS PRF.
62
63Optimised versions of the TLS PRF can be implemented in an ENGINE.
64
65=head1 RETURN VALUES
66
67All these functions return 1 for success and 0 or a negative value for failure.
68In particular a return value of -2 indicates the operation is not supported by
69the public key algorithm.
70
71=head1 EXAMPLES
72
73This example derives 10 bytes using SHA-256 with the secret key "secret"
74and seed value "seed":
75
76 EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx;
77 unsigned char out[10];
78 size_t outlen = sizeof(out);
79
80 pctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(EVP_PKEY_TLS1_PRF, NULL);
81 if (EVP_PKEY_derive_init(pctx) <= 0)
82     /* Error */
83 if (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_tls1_prf_md(pctx, EVP_sha256()) <= 0)
84     /* Error */
85 if (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_tls1_prf_secret(pctx, "secret", 6) <= 0)
86     /* Error */
87 if (EVP_PKEY_CTX_add1_tls1_prf_seed(pctx, "seed", 4) <= 0)
88     /* Error */
89 if (EVP_PKEY_derive(pctx, out, &outlen) <= 0)
90     /* Error */
