Expand description

Verifies that a previously-derived (e.g., using derive) PBKDF2 value matches the PBKDF2 value derived from the other inputs.

The comparison is done in constant time to prevent timing attacks. The comparison will fail if previously_derived is empty (has a length of zero).

§Panics

verify panics if out.len() is larger than (2**32 - 1) * the digest algorithm’s output length, per the PBKDF2 specification.
