  163. \&\s-1HMAC\s0 is a \s-1MAC\s0 (message authentication code), i.e. a keyed hash
  164. function used for message authentication, which is based on a hash
  165. function.
  166. .PP
  167. \&\s-1\fIHMAC\s0()\fR computes the message authentication code of the \fBn\fR bytes at
  168. \&\fBd\fR using the hash function \fBevp_md\fR and the key \fBkey\fR which is
  169. \&\fBkey_len\fR bytes long.
  170. .PP
  171. It places the result in \fBmd\fR (which must have space for the output of
  172. the hash function, which is no more than \fB\s-1EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE\s0\fR bytes).
  173. If \fBmd\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 the digest is placed in a static array. The size of
  174. the output is placed in \fBmd_len\fR, unless it is \fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR.
  175. .PP
  176. \&\fBevp_md\fR can be \fIEVP_sha1()\fR, \fIEVP_ripemd160()\fR etc.
  177. .PP
  178. \&\fIHMAC_CTX_init()\fR initialises a \fB\s-1HMAC_CTX\s0\fR before first use. It must be
  179. called.
  180. .PP
  181. \&\fIHMAC_CTX_cleanup()\fR erases the key and other data from the \fB\s-1HMAC_CTX\s0\fR
  182. and releases any associated resources. It must be called when an
  183. \&\fB\s-1HMAC_CTX\s0\fR is no longer required.
  184. .PP
  185. \&\fIHMAC_cleanup()\fR is an alias for \fIHMAC_CTX_cleanup()\fR included for back
  186. compatibility with 0.9.6b, it is deprecated.
  187. .PP
  188. The following functions may be used if the message is not completely
  189. stored in memory:
  190. .PP
  191. \&\fIHMAC_Init()\fR initializes a \fB\s-1HMAC_CTX\s0\fR structure to use the hash
  192. function \fBevp_md\fR and the key \fBkey\fR which is \fBkey_len\fR bytes
  193. long. It is deprecated and only included for backward compatibility
  194. with OpenSSL 0.9.6b.
  195. .PP
  196. \&\fIHMAC_Init_ex()\fR initializes or reuses a \fB\s-1HMAC_CTX\s0\fR structure to use
  197. the function \fBevp_md\fR and key \fBkey\fR. Either can be \s-1NULL,\s0 in which
  198. case the existing one will be reused. \fIHMAC_CTX_init()\fR must have been
  199. called before the first use of an \fB\s-1HMAC_CTX\s0\fR in this
  200. function. \fBN.B. \f(BIHMAC_Init()\fB had this undocumented behaviour in
  201. previous versions of OpenSSL \- failure to switch to \f(BIHMAC_Init_ex()\fB in
  202. programs that expect it will cause them to stop working\fR.
  203. .PP
  204. \&\fIHMAC_Update()\fR can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message to
  205. be authenticated (\fBlen\fR bytes at \fBdata\fR).
  206. .PP
  207. \&\fIHMAC_Final()\fR places the message authentication code in \fBmd\fR, which
  208. must have space for the hash function output.
  209. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  210. .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
  211. \&\s-1\fIHMAC\s0()\fR returns a pointer to the message authentication code or \s-1NULL\s0 if
  212. an error occurred.
  213. .PP
  214. \&\fIHMAC_Init_ex()\fR, \fIHMAC_Update()\fR and \fIHMAC_Final()\fR return 1 for success or 0 if
  215. an error occurred.
