//! HMAC is specified in [RFC 2104].
//!
//! After a `Key` is constructed, it can be used for multiple signing or
//! verification operations. Separating the construction of the key from the
//! rest of the HMAC operation allows the per-key precomputation to be done
//! only once, instead of it being done in every HMAC operation.
//!
//! Frequently all the data to be signed in a message is available in a single
//! contiguous piece. In that case, the module-level `sign` function can be
//! used. Otherwise, if the input is in multiple parts, `Context` should be
//! used.
//!
//! # Examples:
//!
//! ## Signing a value and verifying it wasn't tampered with
//!
//! ```
//! use ring::{hmac, rand};
//!
//! let rng = rand::SystemRandom::new();
//! let key = hmac::Key::generate(hmac::HMAC_SHA256, &rng)?;
//!
//! let msg = "hello, world";
//!
//! let tag = hmac::sign(&key, msg.as_bytes());
//!
//! // [We give access to the message to an untrusted party, and they give it
//! // back to us. We need to verify they didn't tamper with it.]
//!
//! hmac::verify(&key, msg.as_bytes(), tag.as_ref())?;
//!
//! # Ok::<(), ring::error::Unspecified>(())
//! ```
//!
//! ## Using the one-shot API:
//!
//! ```
//! use ring::{digest, hmac, rand};
//! use ring::rand::SecureRandom;
//!
//! let msg = "hello, world";
//!
//! // The sender generates a secure key value and signs the message with it.
//! // Note that in a real protocol, a key agreement protocol would be used to
//! // derive `key_value`.
//! let rng = rand::SystemRandom::new();
//! let key_value: [u8; digest::SHA256_OUTPUT_LEN] = rand::generate(&rng)?.expose();
//!
//! let s_key = hmac::Key::new(hmac::HMAC_SHA256, key_value.as_ref());
//! let tag = hmac::sign(&s_key, msg.as_bytes());
//!
//! // The receiver (somehow!) knows the key value, and uses it to verify the
//! // integrity of the message.
//! let v_key = hmac::Key::new(hmac::HMAC_SHA256, key_value.as_ref());
//! hmac::verify(&v_key, msg.as_bytes(), tag.as_ref())?;
//!
//! # Ok::<(), ring::error::Unspecified>(())
//! ```
//!
//! ## Using the multi-part API:
//! ```
//! use ring::{digest, hmac, rand};
//! use ring::rand::SecureRandom;
//!
//! let parts = ["hello", ", ", "world"];
//!
//! // The sender generates a secure key value and signs the message with it.
//! // Note that in a real protocol, a key agreement protocol would be used to
//! // derive `key_value`.
//! let rng = rand::SystemRandom::new();
//! let mut key_value: [u8; digest::SHA384_OUTPUT_LEN] = rand::generate(&rng)?.expose();
//!
//! let s_key = hmac::Key::new(hmac::HMAC_SHA384, key_value.as_ref());
//! let mut s_ctx = hmac::Context::with_key(&s_key);
//! for part in &parts {
//! s_ctx.update(part.as_bytes());
//! }
//! let tag = s_ctx.sign();
//!
//! // The receiver (somehow!) knows the key value, and uses it to verify the
//! // integrity of the message.
//! let v_key = hmac::Key::new(hmac::HMAC_SHA384, key_value.as_ref());
//! let mut msg = Vec::<u8>::new();
//! for part in &parts {
//! msg.extend(part.as_bytes());
//! }
//! hmac::verify(&v_key, &msg.as_ref(), tag.as_ref())?;
//!
