@var{mac}: the mac algorithm used internally
@var{key}: the initial keying material
@var{salt}: the optional salt
@var{output}: the output value of the extract operation
This function will derive a fixed-size key using the HKDF-Extract
function as defined in RFC 5869.
@strong{Returns:} Zero or a negative error code on error.
