.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR libkeccak_hmac_update ()
function continues (or starts) HMAC-hashing a message.
The current state of the hashing is stored in
.IR *state ,
and will be updated. The message specified by the
.I msg
parameter with the byte-size specified by the
.I msglen
parameter, will be hashed.

When doing so, it attempts to do so as securely as possible,
rather than as fast as possible.

function may fail for any reason specified by the function
