Proposal: CKM_SHA512_224, CKM_SHA512_256, CKM_SHA512_T

Proposal: CKM_SHA512_224, CKM_SHA512_256, CKM_SHA512_T


Addition of new hash algorithms defined in FIPS 180-4:
SHA-512/224, SHA-512/256, and general case SHA-512/t.

FIPS PUB 180-4, "Secure Hash Standard (SHS)", March 2012
http://www.nist.gov/manuscript-publication-search.cfm?pub_id=910977


The text attached can be inserted immediately after what
is now section 2.21 in "PKCS #11 Cryptographic Token
Interface Current Mechanisms Specification Version 2.40".
The general case SHA-512/t is included for completeness.

This proposal is independent of Robert Burns' "Proposal:
Update references to FIPS PUB 180".  The two ought to be
complementary though.


Thanks,
D.
