NAME
       shishi_decrypt_etype - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <shishi.h>

       int shishi_decrypt_etype(Shishi * handle, Shishi_key * key, int keyusage, int32_t etype, 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 * 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 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 default IV is used, see shishi_decrypt_iv_etype if you need
       to alter it.  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.
