Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

Title "LIFE_CYCLE-KDF 7" For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.
life_cycle-kdf - The KDF algorithm life-cycle Header "DESCRIPTION" All key derivation functions (KDFs) and pseudo random functions (PRFs) go through a number of stages in their life-cycle: Item "start" This state represents the KDF/PRF before it has been allocated. It is the starting state for any life-cycle transitions. Item "newed" This state represents the KDF/PRF after it has been allocated. Item "deriving" This state represents the KDF/PRF when it is set up and capable of generating output. Item "freed" This state is entered when the KDF/PRF is freed. It is the terminal state for all life-cycle transitions. Subsection "State Transition Diagram" The usual life-cycle of a KDF/PRF is illustrated: +-------------------+ | start | +-------------------+ | | EVP_KDF_CTX_new v +-------------------+ | newed | <+ +-------------------+ | | | | EVP_KDF_derive | v | EVP_KDF_CTX_reset EVP_KDF_derive +-------------------+ | + - - - - - - - - | | | ' | deriving | | + - - - - - - - -> | | -+ +-------------------+ | | EVP_KDF_CTX_free v +-------------------+ | freed | +-------------------+ Subsection "Formal State Transitions" This section defines all of the legal state transitions. This is the canonical list. Function Call ------------- Current State ------------- start newed deriving freed EVP_KDF_CTX_new newed EVP_KDF_derive deriving deriving EVP_KDF_CTX_free freed freed freed EVP_KDF_CTX_reset newed newed EVP_KDF_CTX_get_params newed deriving EVP_KDF_CTX_set_params newed deriving EVP_KDF_CTX_gettable_params newed deriving EVP_KDF_CTX_settable_params newed deriving Header "NOTES" At some point the EVP layer will begin enforcing the transitions described herein.
