   6 .TH CRYPT_GENHASH_IMPL 3C "Jun 10, 2002"
   7 .SH NAME
   8 crypt_genhash_impl \- generate encrypted password
   9 .SH SYNOPSIS
  10 .LP
  11 .nf
  12 #include <crypt.h>
  13 
  14 \fBchar *\fR\fBcrypt_genhash_impl\fR(\fBchar *\fR\fIctbuffer\fR, \fBsize_t\fR \fIctbufflen\fR,
  15      \fBconst char *\fR\fIplaintext\fR, \fBconst char *\fR\fIsalt\fR, \fBconst char **\fR\fIparams\fR);

  18 .SH DESCRIPTION
  19 .sp
  20 .LP
  21 The \fBcrypt_genhash_impl()\fR function is called by \fBcrypt\fR(3C) to
  22 generate the encrypted password \fIplaintext\fR.
  23 .sp
  24 .LP
  25 The \fIctbuffer\fR argument is a pointer to an MT-safe buffer of
  26 \fIctbufflen\fR size that is used to return the result.
  27 .sp
  28 .LP
  29 The \fIsalt\fR argument is the salt used in encoding.
  30 .sp
  31 .LP
  32 The \fIparams\fR argument is an \fIargv\fR-like null-terminated vector of type
  33 \fBchar *\fR. The first element of \fIparams\fR represents the mechanism token
  34 name from \fBcrypt.conf\fR(4). The remaining elements of \fIparams\fR represent
  35 strings of the form <\fBparameter\fR>[=<\fBvalue\fR>] to allow passing in
  36 additional information from the \fBcrypt.conf\fR entry, such as specifing
  37 rounds information "\fBrounds=4096\fR".
  38 .sp
  39 .LP
  40 The \fBcrypt_genhash_impl()\fR function must not \fBfree\fR(3C) \fIctbufflen\fR
  41 on error.
  42 .SH RETURN VALUES
  43 .sp
  44 .LP
  45 Upon successful completion, \fBcrypt_genhash_impl()\fR returns a pointer to the
  46 encoded version of \fIplaintext\fR. Otherwise a null pointer is returned and
  47 \fBerrno\fR is set to indicate the error.
  48 .SH ERRORS
  49 .sp
  50 .LP
  51 The \fBcrypt_genhash_impl()\fR function will fail if:
