Synopsis:

#include <qcrypto/qcrypto.h>
int qcrypto_kdf_generate(qcrypto_ctx_t *ctx,
                         qcrypto_key_t **key,
                         size_t keysize,
                         const qcrypto_kdf_args_t *kdfargs,
                         qcrypto_ctx_t **keyctx)

Arguments:

ctx
The algorithm context object.
key
The generated key handle.
keysize
The key size to generate.
kdfargs
The KDF parameters.
keyctx
The algorithm context object that manipulates the resulting key, if required (optional).
