-A simple Python implementation of the HDCP key generation algorithm.
-
-This script implements a simple version of the HDCP key generation algorithm
-using the leaked HDCP master key (which is located in master-key.txt).
-
-Usage: generate_key.py [options]
-
-Options:
-  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
-  -m FILE, --master=FILE
-                        load master key from FILE
-  -k, --sink            generate a sink key rather than a source key
-  --ksv=KSV             use a specific KSV expressed in hexadecimal
-  -j, --json            output key and KSV as JSON
-  -t, --test            generate source and sink keys and test they work
-
-Examples:
-
- # Generate a sink key with KSV 0x54f0af39a8 and output the result in JSON
- ./generate_key.py -k --ksv 54f0af39a8 -j
-
- # Generate a source key with a random KSV and output the result in a 
- # human-readable form
- ./generate_key.py
-
- # Run a self-test to make sure the source a sink key generation is consistent
- ./generate_key.py -t
