Retain same flexibility as in OSCORE, don't lock user into HKDF-Expand hash function #59

Closed rikard-sics closed 1 year ago

rikard-sics commented 1 year ago

We may need to change the pseudocode in updateCtx(), and in general point to using the same method that OSCORE is using for the key derivation.

rikard-sics commented 1 year ago

This seems fine in general, OSCORE only uses HKDF, except we should clarify that the same hash function as used for the OSCORE KDF is used here.

We may adapt the text to generalize things into a KUDOS-Expand, which depends on the KDF OSCORE is using (to be future proof).
