shishi_as_derive_salt - API function

#include <shishi.h>

int shishi_as_derive_salt(Shishi * handle, Shishi_asn1 asreq, Shishi_asn1 asrep, char ** salt, size_t * saltlen);

Shishi handle as allocated by shishi_init().
Input AS-REQ variable.
Input AS-REP variable.
Returned pointer to newly allocated output array.
Pointer to integer, returning size of output array.

Computes the salt that should be used when deriving a key via shishi_string_to_key() for an AS exchange. Currently this searches for PA-DATA of type SHISHI_PA_PW_SALT in the AS-REP provided by asrep, and if present returns it. Otherwise the salt is composed from the client name and the realm, both are extracted from the request asreq.

Returns SHISHI_OK if successful. Failure conditions include various ASN.1 issues.
