=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
This documentation is primarily aimed at provider authors. See L<provider(7)>
|
||||
for further information.
|
||||
|
||||
The key exchange (OSSL_OP_KEYEXCH) operation enables providers to implement key
|
||||
exchange algorithms and make them available to applications via the API
|
||||
functions L<EVP_PKEY_derive_init_ex(3)>, and L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)> (as well as
|
||||
other related functions).
|
||||
|
||||
All "functions" mentioned here are passed as function pointers between
|
||||
F<libcrypto> and the provider in B<OSSL_DISPATCH> arrays via
|
||||
B<OSSL_ALGORITHM> arrays that are returned by the provider's
|
||||
provider_query_operation() function
|
||||
(see L<provider-base(7)/Provider Functions>).
|
||||
|
||||
All these "functions" have a corresponding function type definition
|
||||
named B<OSSL_{name}_fn>, and a helper function to retrieve the
|
||||
function pointer from an B<OSSL_DISPATCH> element named
|
||||
B<OSSL_get_{name}>.
|
||||
For example, the "function" OP_keyexch_newctx() has these:
|
||||
|
||||
typedef void *(OSSL_OP_keyexch_newctx_fn)(void *provctx);
|
||||
static ossl_inline OSSL_OP_keyexch_newctx_fn
|
||||
OSSL_get_OP_keyexch_newctx(const OSSL_DISPATCH *opf);
|
||||
|
||||
B<OSSL_DISPATCH> arrays are indexed by numbers that are provided as
|
||||
macros in L<openssl-core_numbers.h(7)>, as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_newctx OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_NEWCTX
|
||||
OP_keyexch_freectx OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_FREECTX
|
||||
OP_keyexch_dupctx OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_DUPCTX
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_init OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_INIT
|
||||
OP_keyexch_set_peer OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_SET_PEER
|
||||
OP_keyexch_derive OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_DERIVE
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_set_ctx_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_SET_CTX_PARAMS
|
||||
OP_keyexch_settable_ctx_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_SETTABLE_CTX_PARAMS
|
||||
|
||||
A key exchange algorithm implementation may not implement all of these functions.
|
||||
In order to be a consistent set of functions a provider must implement
|
||||
OP_keyexch_newctx, OP_keyexch_freectx, OP_keyexch_init and OP_keyexch_derive.
|
||||
All other functions are optional.
|
||||
|
||||
A key exchange algorithm must also implement some mechanism for generating,
|
||||
loading or importing keys via the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation.
|
||||
See L<provider-keymgmt(7)> for further details.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Context Management Functions
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_newctx() should create and return a pointer to a provider side
|
||||
structure for holding context information during a key exchange operation.
|
||||
A pointer to this context will be passed back in a number of the other key
|
||||
exchange operation function calls.
|
||||
The paramater B<provctx> is the provider context generated during provider
|
||||
initialisation (see L<provider(3)>).
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_freectx() is passed a pointer to the provider side key exchange
|
||||
context in the B<ctx> parameter.
|
||||
This function should free any resources associated with that context.
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_dupctx() should duplicate the provider side key exchange context in
|
||||
the B<ctx> parameter and return the duplicate copy.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Shared Secret Derivation Functions
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_init() initialises a key exchange operation given a provider side key
|
||||
exchange context in the B<ctx> paramter, and a pointer to a provider key object
|
||||
in the B<provkey> parameter. The key object should have been previously
|
||||
generated, loaded or imported into the provider using the key management
|
||||
(OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see provider-keymgmt(7)>.
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_set_peer() is called to supply the peer's public key (in the
|
||||
B<provkey> parameter) to be used when deriving the shared secret.
|
||||
It is also passed a previously initialised key exchange context in the B<ctx>
|
||||
parameter.
|
||||
The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
|
||||
the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see
|
||||
provider-keymgmt(7)>.
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_derive() performs the actual key exchange itself by deriving a shared
|
||||
secret.
|
||||
A previously initialised key exchange context is passed in the B<ctx>
|
||||
parameter.
|
||||
The derived secret should be written to the location B<secret> which should not
|
||||
exceed B<outlen> bytes.
|
||||
The length of the shared secret should be written to B<*secretlen>.
|
||||
If B<secret> is NULL then the maximum length of the shared secret should be
|
||||
written to B<*secretlen>.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Key Exchange Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> for further details on the parameters structure used by
|
||||
the OP_keyexch_set_params() function.
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_set_ctx_params() sets key exchange parameters associated with the
|
||||
given provider side key exchange context B<ctx> to B<params>.
|
||||
Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set.
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters currently recognised by built-in key exchange algorithms are as
|
||||
follows.
|
||||
Not all parameters are relevant to, or are understood by all key exchange
|
||||
algorithms:
|
||||
|
||||
=over 4
|
||||
|
||||
=item B<OSSL_EXCHANGE_PARAM_PAD> (uint)
|
||||
|
||||
Sets the padding mode for the associated key exchange ctx.
|
||||
Setting a value of 1 will turn padding on.
|
||||
Setting a vlue of 0 will turn padding off.
|
||||
If padding is off then the derived shared secret may be smaller than the largest
|
||||
possible secret size.
|
||||
If padding is on then the derived shared secret will have its first bytes filled
|
||||
with 0s where necessary to make the shared secret the same size as the largest
|
||||
possible secret size.
|
||||
|
||||
=back
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_settable_ctx_params() gets a constant B<OSSL_PARAM> array that
|
||||
decribes the settable parameters, i.e. parameters that can be used with
|
||||
OP_signature_set_ctx_params().
|
||||
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> for the use of B<OSSL_PARAM> as parameter descriptor.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_newctx() and OP_keyexch_dupctx() should return the newly created
|
||||
provider side key exchange context, or NULL on failure.
|
||||
|
||||
OP_keyexch_init(), OP_keyexch_set_peer(), OP_keyexch_derive() and
|
||||
OP_keyexch_set_params() should return 1 for success or 0 on error.
