/*****
 ***** Module Info
 *****/

/*! \file
 *
 * \brief
 * The TSEC (Transaction Security) module is an abstraction layer for managing
 * DNS transaction mechanisms such as TSIG or SIG(0).  A TSEC structure is a
 * mechanism-independent object containing key information specific to the
 * mechanism, and is expected to be used as an argument to other modules
 * that use transaction security in a mechanism-independent manner.
 *
 * MP:
 *\li   A TSEC structure is expected to be thread-specific.  No inter-thread
 *      synchronization is ensured in multiple access to a single TSEC
 *      structure.
 *
 * Resources:
 *\li   TBS
 *
 * Security:
 *\li   This module does not handle any low-level data directly, and so no
 *      security issue specific to this module is anticipated.

 * Create a TSEC structure and stores a type-dependent key structure in it.
 * For a TSIG key (type is dns_tsectype_tsig), dns_tsec_create() creates a
 * TSIG key structure from '*key' and keeps it in the structure.  For other
 * types, this function simply retains '*key' in the structure.  In either
 * case, the ownership of '*key' is transferred to the TSEC module; the caller
 * must not modify or destroy it after the call to dns_tsec_create().
 *
 * Requires:
 *
 *\li   'mctx' is a valid memory context.
 *
 *\li   'type' is a valid value of dns_tsectype_t (see above).
 *
 *\li   'key' is a valid key.
 *
 *\li   tsecp != NULL && *tsecp == NULL.
 *
 * Returns:
 *
 *\li   #ISC_R_SUCCESS                          On success.
