This function no longer modifies anything, so it doesn't actually
allocate the slot. Now, it just returns the empty key slot, and it's
up to the caller to cause the slot to be in use (or not).
The flag to mark key slots as allocated was introduced to mark slots
that are claimed and in use, but do not have key material yet, at a
time when creating a key used several API functions: allocate a slot,
then progressively set its metadata, and finally create the key
material. Now that all of these steps are combined into a single
API function call, the notion of allocated-but-not-filled slot is no
longer relevant. So remove the corresponding flag.
A slot is occupied iff there is a key in it. (For a key in a secure
element, the key material is not present, but the slot contains the
key metadata.) This key must have a type which is nonzero, so use this
as an indicator that a slot is in use.
When creating a key with a lifetime that places it in a secure
element, retrieve the appropriate driver table entry.
This commit doesn't yet achieve behavior: so far the code only
retrieves the driver, it doesn't call the driver.
Now that psa_allocate_key() is no longer a public function, expose
psa_internal_allocate_key_slot() instead, which provides a pointer to
the slot to its caller.
Remove the key creation functions from before the attribute-based API,
i.e. the key creation functions that worked by allocating a slot, then
setting metadata through the handle and finally creating key material.
Only allow creating keys in the application (user) range. Allow
opening keys in the implementation (vendor) range as well.
Compared with what the implementation allowed, which was undocumented:
0 is now allowed; values from 0x40000000 to 0xfffeffff are now
forbidden.
Move psa_load_persistent_key_into_slot,
psa_internal_make_key_persistent and psa_internal_release_key_slot to
the slot management module.
Expose psa_import_key_into_slot from the core.
After this commit, there are no longer any functions declared in
psa_crypto_slot_management.h and defined in psa_crypto.c. There are
still function calls in both directions between psa_crypto.c and
psa_crypto_slot_management.c.
Move the key slot array and its initialization and wiping to the slot
management module.
Also move the lowest-level key slot access function psa_get_key_slot
and the auxiliary function for slot allocation
psa_internal_allocate_key_slot to the slot management module.
This commit finishes the removal of support for direct access to key
slots in psa_crypto.c.
This marks the end of the necessary phase of the transition to key
handles. The code should subsequently be refactored to move key slot
management from psa_crypto.c to psa_crypto_slot_management.c.
Implement psa_allocate_key, psa_open_key, psa_create_key,
psa_close_key.
Add support for keys designated to handles to psa_get_key_slot, and
thereby to the whole API.
Allocated and non-allocated keys can coexist. This is a temporary
stage in order to transition from the use of direct slot numbers to
allocated handles only. Once all the tests and sample programs have
been migrated to use handles, the implementation will be simplified
and made more robust with support for handles only.
