.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This documentation is primarily aimed at provider authors. See \fBprovider\fR\|(7)
for further information.
.PP
The \s-1MAC\s0 operation enables providers to implement mac algorithms and make
them available to applications via the \s-1API\s0 functions \fBEVP_MAC_init\fR\|(3),
\&\fBEVP_MAC_update\fR\|(3) and \fBEVP_MAC_final\fR\|(3).
.PP
All \*(L"functions\*(R" mentioned here are passed as function pointers between
\&\fIlibcrypto\fR and the provider in \s-1\fBOSSL_DISPATCH\s0\fR\|(3) arrays via
\&\s-1\fBOSSL_ALGORITHM\s0\fR\|(3) arrays that are returned by the provider's
\&\fBprovider_query_operation()\fR function
(see \*(L"Provider Functions\*(R" in \fBprovider\-base\fR\|(7)).
.PP
All these \*(L"functions\*(R" have a corresponding function type definition
named \fBOSSL_FUNC_{name}_fn\fR, and a helper function to retrieve the
function pointer from an \s-1\fBOSSL_DISPATCH\s0\fR\|(3) element named
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_{name}\fR.
For example, the \*(L"function\*(R" \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_newctx()\fR has these:
.PP
.Vb 3
\& typedef void *(OSSL_FUNC_mac_newctx_fn)(void *provctx);
\& static ossl_inline OSSL_FUNC_mac_newctx_fn
\&     OSSL_FUNC_mac_newctx(const OSSL_DISPATCH *opf);
.Ve
.PP
\&\s-1\fBOSSL_DISPATCH\s0\fR\|(3) arrays are indexed by numbers that are provided as
macros in \fBopenssl\-core_dispatch.h\fR\|(7), as follows:
.PP
.Vb 3
\& OSSL_FUNC_mac_newctx               OSSL_FUNC_MAC_NEWCTX
\& OSSL_FUNC_mac_freectx              OSSL_FUNC_MAC_FREECTX
\& OSSL_FUNC_mac_dupctx               OSSL_FUNC_MAC_DUPCTX

.Ve
.PP
A mac algorithm implementation may not implement all of these functions.
In order to be a consistent set of functions, at least the following functions
must be implemented: \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_newctx()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_freectx()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_init()\fR,
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_update()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_final()\fR.
All other functions are optional.
.SS "Context Management Functions"
.IX Subsection "Context Management Functions"
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_newctx()\fR should create and return a pointer to a provider side
structure for holding context information during a mac operation.
A pointer to this context will be passed back in a number of the other mac
operation function calls.
The parameter \fIprovctx\fR is the provider context generated during provider
initialisation (see \fBprovider\fR\|(7)).
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_freectx()\fR is passed a pointer to the provider side mac context in
the \fImctx\fR parameter.
If it receives \s-1NULL\s0 as \fImctx\fR value, it should not do anything other than
return.
This function should free any resources associated with that context.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_dupctx()\fR should duplicate the provider side mac context in the
\&\fImctx\fR parameter and return the duplicate copy.
.SS "Encryption/Decryption Functions"
.IX Subsection "Encryption/Decryption Functions"
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_init()\fR initialises a mac operation given a newly created provider
side mac context in the \fImctx\fR parameter.  The \fIparams\fR are set before setting
the \s-1MAC\s0 \fIkey\fR of \fIkeylen\fR bytes.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_update()\fR is called to supply data for \s-1MAC\s0 computation of a previously
initialised mac operation.
The \fImctx\fR parameter contains a pointer to a previously initialised provider
side context.
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_update()\fR may be called multiple times for a single mac operation.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_final()\fR completes the \s-1MAC\s0 computation started through previous
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_init()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_update()\fR calls.
The \fImctx\fR parameter contains a pointer to the provider side context.
The resulting \s-1MAC\s0 should be written to \fIout\fR and the amount of data written
to \fI*outl\fR, which should not exceed \fIoutsize\fR bytes.
The same expectations apply to \fIoutsize\fR as documented for
\&\fBEVP_MAC_final\fR\|(3).
.SS "Mac Parameters"
.IX Subsection "Mac Parameters"
See \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) for further details on the parameters structure used by
these functions.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_get_params()\fR gets details of parameter values associated with the
provider algorithm and stores them in \fIparams\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_set_ctx_params()\fR sets mac parameters associated with the given
provider side mac context \fImctx\fR to \fIparams\fR.
Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set.
Passing \s-1NULL\s0 for \fIparams\fR should return true.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_get_ctx_params()\fR gets details of currently set parameter values
associated with the given provider side mac context \fImctx\fR and stores them
in \fIparams\fR.
Passing \s-1NULL\s0 for \fIparams\fR should return true.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_gettable_params()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_gettable_ctx_params()\fR,
and \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_settable_ctx_params()\fR all return constant \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3)
arrays as descriptors of the parameters that \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_get_params()\fR,
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_get_ctx_params()\fR, and \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_set_ctx_params()\fR
can handle, respectively.  \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_gettable_ctx_params()\fR and
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_settable_ctx_params()\fR will return the parameters associated
with the provider side context \fImctx\fR in its current state if it is
not \s-1NULL.\s0  Otherwise, they return the parameters associated with the
provider side algorithm \fIprovctx\fR.
.PP
All \s-1MAC\s0 implementations are expected to handle the following parameters:

.IX Item "key (OSSL_MAC_PARAM_KEY) <octet string>"

Sets the key in the associated \s-1MAC\s0 ctx.  This is identical to passing a \fIkey\fR
argument to the \fBOSSL_FUNC_mac_init()\fR function.
