+=head1 NAME
+
+OSSL_CRMF_pbm_new,
+OSSL_CRMF_pbmp_new
+- functions for producing Password-Based MAC (PBM)
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/crmf.h>
+
+ int OSSL_CRMF_pbm_new(OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, const char *propq,
+ const OSSL_CRMF_PBMPARAMETER *pbmp,
+ const unsigned char *msg, size_t msglen,
+ const unsigned char *sec, size_t seclen,
+ unsigned char **mac, size_t *maclen);
+
+ OSSL_CRMF_PBMPARAMETER *OSSL_CRMF_pbmp_new(OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, size_t saltlen,
+ int owfnid, size_t itercnt,
+ int macnid);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+OSSL_CRMF_pbm_new() generates a PBM (Password-Based MAC) based on given PBM
+parameters I<pbmp>, message I<msg>, and secret I<sec>, along with the respective
+lengths I<msglen> and I<seclen>.
+The optional library context I<libctx> and I<propq> parameters may be used
+to influence the selection of the MAC algorithm referenced in the I<pbmp>;
+see L<crypto(7)/ALGORITHM FETCHING> for further information.
+On success writes the address of the newly
+allocated MAC via the I<mac> reference parameter and writes the length via the
+I<maclen> reference parameter unless it its NULL.
+
+OSSL_CRMF_pbmp_new() initializes and returns a new B<PBMParameter> structure
+with a new random salt of given length I<saltlen>,
+OWF (one-way function) NID I<owfnid>, OWF iteration count I<itercnt>,
+and MAC NID I<macnid>.
+The library context I<libctx> parameter may be used to select the provider
+for the random number generation (DRBG) and may be NULL for the default.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The algorithms for the OWF (one-way function) and for the MAC (message
+authentication code) may be any with a NID defined in F<< <openssl/objects.h> >>.
+As specified by RFC 4210, these should include NID_hmac_sha1.
+
+RFC 4210 recommends that the salt SHOULD be at least 8 bytes (64 bits) long,
+where 16 bytes is common.
+
+The iteration count must be at least 100, as stipulated by RFC 4211, and is
+limited to at most 100000 to avoid DoS through manipulated or otherwise
+malformed input.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+OSSL_CRMF_pbm_new() returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
+
+OSSL_CRMF_pbmp_new() returns a new and initialized OSSL_CRMF_PBMPARAMETER
+structure, or NULL on error.
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+ OSSL_CRMF_PBMPARAMETER *pbm = NULL;
+ unsigned char *msg = "Hello";
+ unsigned char *sec = "SeCrEt";
+ unsigned char *mac = NULL;
+ size_t maclen;
+
+ if ((pbm = OSSL_CRMF_pbmp_new(16, NID_sha256, 500, NID_hmac_sha1) == NULL))
+ goto err;
+ if (!OSSL_CRMF_pbm_new(pbm, msg, 5, sec, 6, &mac, &maclen))
+ goto err;
