NAME#

EVP_MAC-KMAC, EVP_MAC-KMAC128, EVP_MAC-KMAC256 - The KMAC EVP_MAC implementations

DESCRIPTION#

Support for computing KMAC MACs through the EVP_MAC API.

Identity#

These implementations are identified with one of these names and properties, to be used with EVP_MAC_fetch():

"KMAC-128", "provider=default" or "provider=fips"

"KMAC-256", "provider=default" or "provider=fips"

Supported parameters#

The general description of these parameters can be found in "PARAMETERS" in EVP_MAC(3).

All these parameters (except for "block-size") can be set with EVP_MAC_CTX_set_params(). Furthermore, the "size" parameter can be retrieved with EVP_MAC_CTX_get_params(), or with EVP_MAC_CTX_get_mac_size(). The length of the "size" parameter should not exceed that of a size_t. Likewise, the "block-size" parameter can be retrieved with EVP_MAC_CTX_get_params(), or with EVP_MAC_CTX_get_block_size().

"key" (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_KEY) <octet string>

Sets the MAC key. Setting this parameter is identical to passing a key to EVP_MAC_init(3). The length of the key (in bytes) must be in the range 4...512.

"custom" (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_CUSTOM) <octet string>

Sets the customization string. It is an optional value with a length of at most 512 bytes, and is empty by default.

"size" (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_SIZE) <unsigned integer>

Sets the MAC size. By default, it is 32 for "KMAC-128" and 64 for "KMAC-256".

"block-size" (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_BLOCK_SIZE) <unsigned integer>

Gets the MAC block size. It is 168 for "KMAC-128" and 136 for "KMAC-256".

"xof" (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_XOF) <integer>

The "xof" parameter value is expected to be 1 or 0. Use 1 to enable XOF mode. The default value is 0.

"fips-indicator" (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR) <int>

This settable parameter is described in provider-mac(7).

"no-short-mac" (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_FIPS_NO_SHORT_MAC) <integer>

This settable parameter is described in provider-mac(7). It is used by the OpenSSL FIPS provider and the minimum length output for KMAC is defined by NIST's SP 800-185 8.4.2.

"key-check" (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_FIPS_KEY_CHECK) <integer>

This settable parameter is described in provider-mac(7).

The "custom" and "no-short-mac" parameters must be set as part of or before the EVP_MAC_init() call. The "xof" and "size" parameters can be set at any time before EVP_MAC_final(). The "key" parameter is set as part of the EVP_MAC_init() call, but can be set before it instead.
