	)

The generic autenticated decryption (AEAD) function.

Note:: If the data is not authentic, then the output buffer is zeroed out to prevent the unauthentic plaintext being used, making this interface safer.

Parameters:

ctx	The generic cipher context. This must be initialized and and bound to a key.
iv	The IV to use, or NONCE_COUNTER for CTR-mode ciphers. This must be a readable buffer of at least `iv_len` Bytes.
iv_len	The IV length for ciphers with variable-size IV. This parameter is discarded by ciphers with fixed-size IV.
ad	The additional data to be authenticated. This must be a readable buffer of at least `ad_len` Bytes.
ad_len	The length of `ad`.
input	The buffer holding the input data. This must be a readable buffer of at least `ilen` Bytes.
ilen	The length of the input data.
output	The buffer for the output data. This must be able to hold at least `ilen` Bytes.
olen	The length of the output data, to be updated with the actual number of Bytes written. This must not be `NULL`.
tag	The buffer holding the authentication tag. This must be a readable buffer of at least `tag_len` Bytes.
tag_len	The length of the authentication tag.

Returns:: 0 on success.; MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_BAD_INPUT_DATA on parameter-verification failure.; MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_AUTH_FAILED if data is not authentic.; A cipher-specific error code on failure.

input	The buffer holding the input data. This must be a readable buffer of at least `ilen` Bytes.
ilen	The length of the input data.
