+.SH NAME
+EVP_KDF\-SCRYPT \- The scrypt EVP_KDF implementation
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+Support for computing the \fBscrypt\fR password-based KDF through the \fBEVP_KDF\fR
+API.
+.PP
+The EVP_KDF\-SCRYPT algorithm implements the scrypt password-based key
+derivation function, as described in RFC 7914. It is memory-hard in the sense
+that it deliberately requires a significant amount of RAM for efficient
+computation. The intention of this is to render brute forcing of passwords on
+systems that lack large amounts of main memory (such as GPUs or ASICs)
+computationally infeasible.
+.PP
+scrypt provides three work factors that can be customized: N, r and p. N, which
+has to be a positive power of two, is the general work factor and scales CPU
+time in an approximately linear fashion. r is the block size of the internally
+used hash function and p is the parallelization factor. Both r and p need to be
+greater than zero. The amount of RAM that scrypt requires for its computation
+is roughly (128 * N * r * p) bytes.
+.PP
+In the original paper of Colin Percival ("Stronger Key Derivation via
+Sequential Memory-Hard Functions", 2009), the suggested values that give a
+computation time of less than 5 seconds on a 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo are N =
+2^20 = 1048576, r = 8, p = 1. Consequently, the required amount of memory for
+this computation is roughly 1 GiB. On a more recent CPU (Intel i7\-5930K at 3.5
+GHz), this computation takes about 3 seconds. When N, r or p are not specified,
+they default to 1048576, 8, and 1, respectively. The maximum amount of RAM that
+may be used by scrypt defaults to 1025 MiB.
+.SS Identity
+.IX Subsection "Identity"
+"SCRYPT" is the name for this implementation; it
+can be used with the \fBEVP_KDF_fetch()\fR function.
+.SS "Supported parameters"
+.IX Subsection "Supported parameters"
+The supported parameters are:
+.IP """pass"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_PASSWORD\fR) <octet string>" 4
+.IX Item """pass"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PASSWORD) <octet string>"
+.PD 0
+.IP """salt"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_SALT\fR) <octet string>" 4
+.IX Item """salt"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SALT) <octet string>"
+.PD
+These parameters work as described in "PARAMETERS" in \fBEVP_KDF\fR\|(3).
+.IP """n"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_N\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
+.IX Item """n"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_N) <unsigned integer>"
+.PD 0
+.IP """r"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_R\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
+.IX Item """r"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_R) <unsigned integer>"
+.IP """p"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_P\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
+.IX Item """p"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_P) <unsigned integer>"
+.IP """maxmem_bytes"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_MAXMEM\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
+.IX Item """maxmem_bytes"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SCRYPT_MAXMEM) <unsigned integer>"
+.PD
+These parameters configure the scrypt work factors N, r, maxmem and p.
+Both N and maxmem_bytes are parameters of type \fBuint64_t\fR.
+Both r and p are parameters of type \fBuint32_t\fR.
+.IP """properties"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
+.IX Item """properties"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES) <UTF8 string>"
+This can be used to set the property query string when fetching the
+fixed digest internally. NULL is used if this value is not set.
+.SH NOTES
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+A context for scrypt can be obtained by calling:
+.PP

+\& EVP_KDF *kdf = EVP_KDF_fetch(NULL, "SCRYPT", NULL);

+The output length of an scrypt key derivation is specified via the
