55.Sh NAME
56.Nm EVP_chacha20 ,
57.Nm EVP_chacha20_poly1305
58.Nd ChaCha20 stream cipher for EVP
59.Sh SYNOPSIS
60.In openssl/evp.h
61.Ft const EVP_CIPHER *
62.Fn EVP_chacha20 void
63.Ft const EVP_CIPHER *
64.Fn EVP_chacha20_poly1305 void
65.Sh DESCRIPTION
66.Fn EVP_chacha20
67provides the ChaCha20 stream cipher in the EVP framework.
68The key length is 256 bits, the IV is 128 bits long.
69The first 32 bits consists of a counter in little-endian order followed
70by a 96 bit nonce.
71For example a nonce of:
72.Pp
73000000000000000000000002
74.Pp
75With an initial counter of 42 (2a in hex) would be expressed as:
76.Pp
772a000000000000000000000000000002
78.Pp
79.Fn EVP_chacha20_poly1305
80provides authenticated encryption with ChaCha20-Poly1305.
81Like
82.Fn EVP_chacha20 ,
83the key is 256 bits and the IV is 96 bits.
84This supports additional authenticated data (AAD) and produces a 128-bit
85authentication tag.
86.Sh RETURN VALUES
87These functions return return pointers to static
88.Vt EVP_CIPHER
89objects that contain the implementations of the symmetric cipher.
