NAME
       shishi_decrypt_iv_etype - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <shishi.h>

       int  shishi_decrypt_iv_etype(Shishi  *  handle,	Shishi_key  * key, int
       keyusage, int32_t etype, const char * iv, size_t ivlen,	const  char  *
       in, size_t inlen, char ** out, size_t * outlen);

ARGUMENTS
       Shishi * handle
		   shishi handle as allocated by shishi_init().

       Shishi_key * key
		   key to decrypt with.

       int keyusage
		   integer specifying what this key is decrypting.

       int32_t etype
		   integer specifying what cipher to use.

       const char * iv
		   input array with initialization vector

       size_t ivlen
		   size of input array with initialization vector.

       const char * in
		   input array with data to decrypt.

       size_t inlen
		   size of input array with data to decrypt.

       char ** out output array with newly allocated decrypted data.

       size_t * outlen
		   output variable with size of newly allocated output array.

DESCRIPTION
       Decrypts	 data  as per encryption method using specified initialization
       vector and key.	The key actually used is derived using the key	usage.
       If  key	usage is 0, no key derivation is used.	The OUT buffer must be
       deallocated   by	  the	caller.	   The	 next	IV   is	  lost,	   see
       shishi_decrypt_ivupdate_etype if you need it.

       Note  that  DECRYPT(ENCRYPT(data))  does	 not  necessarily  yield  data
       exactly.	 Some encryption types add pad to make the data fit  into  the
       block  size  of	the encryption algorithm.  Furthermore, the pad is not
       guaranteed to look in any special way,  although	 existing  implementa‐
       tions  often  pad  with the zero byte.  This means that you may have to
       "frame" data, so it is possible to  infer  the  original	 length	 after
       decryption.  Compare ASN.1 DER which contains such information.

RETURN VALUE
       Returns SHISHI_OK iff successful.
