The krb5_checksum structure holds a
    Kerberos checksum. There is no component inside
    krb5_checksum that is directly referable.
The functions are used to create and
    verify checksums.
    krb5_create_checksum()
    creates a checksum of the specified data, and puts it in
    result. If crypto is
    NULL, usage_or_type specifies
    the checksum type to use; it must not be keyed. Otherwise
    crypto is an encryption context created by
    krb5_crypto_init(),
    and usage_or_type specifies a key-usage.
krb5_verify_checksum()
    verifies the checksum against the provided data.
krb5_checksum_is_collision_proof()
    returns true is the specified checksum is collision proof (that it's very
    unlikely that two strings has the same hash value, and that it's hard to
    find two strings that has the same hash). Examples of collision proof
    checksums are MD5, and SHA1, while CRC32 is not.
krb5_checksum_is_keyed()
    returns true if the specified checksum type is keyed (that the hash value is
    a function of both the data, and a separate key). Examples of keyed hash
    algorithms are HMAC-SHA1-DES3, and RSA-MD5-DES. The “plain”
    hash functions MD5, and SHA1 are not keyed.
krb5_crypto_get_checksum_type()
    returns the checksum type that will be used when creating a checksum for the
    given crypto context. This function is useful in
    combination with krb5_checksumsize() when you want
    to know the size a checksum will use when you create it.
krb5_cksumtype_valid()
    returns 0 or an error if the checksumtype is implemented and not currently
    disabled in this kerberos library.
krb5_checksumsize()
    returns the size of the outdata of checksum function.
krb5_copy_checksum()
    returns a copy of the checksum krb5_free_checksum()
    should use used to free the new checksum.
krb5_free_checksum()
    free the checksum and the content of the checksum.
krb5_free_checksum_contents()
    frees the content of checksum in cksum.
krb5_hmac()
    calculates the HMAC over data (with length
    len) using the keyusage usage
    and keyblock key. Note that keyusage is not always
    used in checksums.
krb5_checksum_disable globally disables
    the checksum type.
