.SH NAME
life_cycle\-mac \- The MAC algorithm life\-cycle
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
All message authentication codes (MACs)
go through a number of stages in their life-cycle:
.IP start 4
.IX Item "start"
This state represents the MAC before it has been allocated.  It is the
starting state for any life-cycle transitions.
.IP newed 4
.IX Item "newed"
This state represents the MAC after it has been allocated.
.IP initialised 4
.IX Item "initialised"
This state represents the MAC when it is set up and capable of processing
input.
.IP updated 4
.IX Item "updated"
This state represents the MAC when it is set up and capable of processing
additional input or generating output.
.IP finaled 4
.IX Item "finaled"
This state represents the MAC when it has generated output.
.IP freed 4
.IX Item "freed"
This state is entered when the MAC is freed.  It is the terminal state
for all life-cycle transitions.
.SS "State Transition Diagram"
.IX Subsection "State Transition Diagram"
The usual life-cycle of a MAC is illustrated:
