No effect for now, just declaring it here, implemented in subsequent commits.
The option requires MBEDTLS_USE_TINYCRYPT and is incompatible with
MBEDTLS_PK_RSA_ALT_SUPPORT and MBEDTLS_RSA_C.
Currently users (including the X.509 and SSL libraries) assume that if both PK
and RSA are enabled, then RSA is available through PK. If we allowed RSA to be
enabled together with PK_SINGLE_TYPE, we'd break that assumption. Going
through the code to find all place that rely on that assumption and fix them
would be cumbersome, and people who want PK_SINGLE_TYPE are unlikely to care
about RSA anyway, so let's just make them incompatible.
This is also consistent with what's done in the MD module: MD_SINGLE_HASH
requires that exactly one hash be enabled.
The programs assume that including "pk.h" brings up "bignum.h". When
MBEDTLS_USE_TINYCRYPT is enabled and MBEDTLS_RSA_C is disabled, that
assumption no longer holds. Fix that by explicitly including bignum.h from the
programs that need it.
This is a bug pre-existing to this PR, fixed here to enable the inclusion of a
test with a config that happens to reveal it.
This achieves two related goals:
1. Those members are now only accessed via the accessor function (except in
code paths that we don't care about: those guarded by
MBEDTLS_PK_RSA_ALT_SUPPORT or MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE)
2. When we turn on compile-time dispatch, we don't obviously don't want to
keep a runtime NULL check.
For debug this requires changing the signature or the accessor function to
return int; this is done without changing the signature of the accessed
function.
1. Mark an RSA-alt-specific code path as such.
2. Move NULL check for wrapper function closer to the use of that function.
Those are in preparation of the next commit.
This is the first commit in a series aiming at implementing optional
compile-time dispatch when a single PK type is hardcoded. At the end of this
series, the functions introduced here will directly resolve to the correct
function at compile-time when this (to be created) option is enabled.
This commit adds a LICENSE file and README file to tinycrypt, to help auditing
of the source code for licenses and also to indicate the origin of the work.

This commit re-implements the previously introduced internal
verification chain API in the case where verification callbacks
are disabled. In this situation, it is not necessary to maintain
the list of individual certificates and flags comprising the
verification chain - instead, it suffices to just keep track
of the length and the total (=merged) flags.
When verifying an X.509 certificate, the current verification logic
maintains an instance of the internal mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_chain
structure representing the state of the verification process. This
instance references the list of certificates that comprise the chain
built so far together with their verification flags. This information
must be stored during verification because it's being passed to the
verification callback at the end of verification - if the user has
specified those.
If the user hasn't specified a verification callback, it is not
necessary to maintain the list of CRTs, and it is also not necessary
to maintain verification flags for each CRT individually, as they're
merged at the end of the verification process.
To allow a readable simplification of the code in case no verification
callbacks are used, this commit introduces a zero-cost abstraction layer
for the functionality that's required from the verification chain structure:
- init/reset
- add a new CRT to the chain
- get pointer to current CRT flags
- add flags to EE certificate
- get current chain length
- trigger callbacks and get final (merged) flags
This gives flexibility for re-implementing the verification chain
structure, e.g. in the case where no verification callbacks are
provided, and there's hence no need to store CRTs and flags
individually. This will be done in a later commit.
When MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH is set, both the underlying digest context
and the HMAC data are embedded into the mbedtls_md_context; otherwise,
they're dynamically allocated and referenced from mbedtls_md_context.
When the HMAC data is embedded in mbedtls_md_context, it's unnecessary
to check whether mbedtls_md_context::hmac_ctx is NULL, because that's
never the case in defined behaviour, but the check has kept for
uniformity so far. However, contrary to the expectation that compilers
would silently remove this check as always false, ARMC6 complains about
it, breaking some tests in all.sh.
This commit fixes this by guarding checks for
mbedtls_md_context::hmac_ctx == NULL
by !MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH.
When MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH is set, the underlying digest's
context is embedded into mbedtls_md_context_t, which is
zeroized before the underlying digest's init() function
is called. For those digests where initialization is
zeroization, the init() call can therefore be omitted.
Similarly, when free()-ing an mbedtls_md_context_t, the
entire context is zeroized in the end, hence if the
underlying digest's free() function is zeroization,
it can be omitted.
