=head1 NAME

EVP_MAC-Siphash - The Siphash EVP_MAC implementation

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Support for computing Siphash MACs through the B<EVP_MAC> API.

=head2 Identity

This implementation is identified with this name and properties, to be
used with EVP_MAC_fetch():

=over 4

=item "SIPHASH", "provider=default"

=head2 Supported parameters

The general description of these parameters can be found in
L<EVP_MAC(3)/PARAMETERS>.

All these parameters 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 B<size_t>.

=over 4

=item "key" (B<OSSL_MAC_PARAM_KEY>) <octet string>

Sets the MAC key.
Setting this parameter is identical to passing a I<key> to L<EVP_MAC_init(3)>.

=item "size" (B<OSSL_MAC_PARAM_SIZE>) <unsigned integer>

Sets the MAC size.

=item "c-rounds" (B<OSSL_MAC_PARAM_C_ROUNDS>) <unsigned integer>

Specifies the number of rounds per message block.  By default this is I<2>.

=item "d-rounds" (B<OSSL_MAC_PARAM_D_ROUNDS>) <unsigned integer>

Specifies the number of finalisation rounds.  By default this is I<4>.
