Pseudorandom Function KDF Mechanisms

The SafeNet HSMs support the following two vendor defined mechanisms. They can be used to perform Counter Mode KDF (key derivation functions) using various CMAC algorithms (DES3, AES, ARIA, SEED) as the PRF (pseudo-random function). See NIST SP 800-108. These mechanisms are available in firmware 6.2.1 and later.
