=head1 NAME
EVP_chacha20,
EVP_chacha20_poly1305
- EVP ChaCha20 stream cipher
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/evp.h>
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_chacha20(void)
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_chacha20_poly1305(void)
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The ChaCha20 stream cipher for EVP.
=over 4
=item EVP_chacha20()
The ChaCha20 stream cipher. The key length is 256 bits, the IV is 96 bits long.
=item EVP_chacha20_poly1305()
Authenticated encryption with ChaCha20-Poly1305. Like EVP_chacha20(), the key
is 256 bits and the IV is 96 bits. This supports additional authenticated data
(AAD) and produces a 128-bit authentication tag. See the
L<EVP_EncryptInit(3)/AEAD Interface> section for more information.
=back
=head1 RETURN VALUES
These functions return an B<EVP_CIPHER> structure that contains the
implementation of the symmetric cipher. See L<EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3)> for
details of the B<EVP_CIPHER> structure.
