=head1 DESCRIPTION
DH_generate_key() performs the first step of a Diffie-Hellman key
exchange by generating private and public DH values. By calling
-DH_compute_key(), these are combined with the other party's public
-value to compute the shared key.
+DH_compute_key() or DH_compute_key_padded(), these are combined with
+the other party's public value to compute the shared key.
DH_generate_key() expects B<dh> to contain the shared parameters
B<dh-E<gt>p> and B<dh-E<gt>g>. It generates a random private DH value
@@ -28,6 +31,14 @@ published.
DH_compute_key() computes the shared secret from the private DH value
in B<dh> and the other party's public value in B<pub_key> and stores
it in B<key>. B<key> must point to B<DH_size(dh)> bytes of memory.
+The padding style is RFC 5246 (8.1.2) that strips leading zero bytes.
+It is not constant time due to the leading zero bytes being stripped.
+The return value should be considered public.
+
+DH_compute_key_padded() is similar but stores a fixed number of bytes.
+The padding style is NIST SP 800-56A (C.1) that retains leading zero bytes.
+It is constant time due to the leading zero bytes being retained.
+The return value should be considered public.
