=head1 NAME

EVP_KDF-HMAC-DRBG
- The HMAC DRBG DETERMINISTIC EVP_KDF implementation

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Support for a deterministic HMAC DRBG using the B<EVP_KDF> API. This is similar
to L<EVP_RAND-HMAC-DRBG(7)>, but uses fixed values for its entropy and nonce
values. This is used to generate deterministic nonce value required by ECDSA
and DSA (as defined in RFC 6979).

=head2 Identity

"HMAC-DRBG-KDF" is the name for this implementation; it can be used
with the EVP_KDF_fetch() function.

=head2 Supported parameters

The supported parameters are:

=over 4

=item "digest" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_DIGEST>) <UTF8 string>

=item "properties" (B<OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_PROPERTIES>) <UTF8 string>

These parameters work as described in L<EVP_KDF(3)/PARAMETERS>.

=item "entropy" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_HMACDRBG_ENTROPY>) <octet string>

Sets the entropy bytes supplied to the HMAC-DRBG.

=item "nonce" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_HMACDRBG_NONCE>) <octet string>

Sets the nonce bytes supplied to the HMAC-DRBG.

=back

=head1 NOTES

A context for KDF HMAC DRBG can be obtained by calling:

 EVP_KDF *kdf = EVP_KDF_fetch(NULL, "HMAC-DRBG-KDF", NULL);
 EVP_KDF_CTX *kdf_ctx = EVP_KDF_CTX_new(kdf, NULL);

=head1 CONFORMING TO

=head1 HISTORY

The EVP_KDF-HMAC-DRBG functionality was added in OpenSSL 3.2.
