This phase adds in support for the following features being
added to the list of features that can be configured in the

the PSA crypto library to use the appropriate new guards that
will allow the feature to be compiled in or out either using
new PSA_WANT_ALG_xxx or the previous MBEDTLS_xxx macros.
For HKDF and HMAC, most of the PSA library code did not have a
specific matching MBEDTLS_xxx macro for that feature, but was instead
using the generic dependent MBEDTLS_MD_C macro. The ECDH and RSA
features more closely aligned with a direct replacement with a similar
macro.
The new tests for RSA, HMAC, and HKDF would normally unset additional
dependent macros, but when attempting to implement that level of
testing it required removal of too many core features like MD_C, PK_C,
ECP_C and other low level features. This may point to additional phases of

With PSA crypto v1.0.0, a volatile key identifier may
contain a owner identifier but no file is associated
to it. Thus rename the type psa_key_file_id_t to
mbedtls_svc_key_id_t to avoid a direct link with a
file when a key identifier involves an owner
identifier.
The new type name is prefixed by mbedtls to highlight
that the type is specific to Mbed TLS implementation
and not defined in the PSA Cryptography API
specification.
The svc in the type name stands for service as this
is the key identifier type from the point of view of
the service providing the Cryptography services.
The service can be completely provided by the present
library or partially in case of a multi-client service.
As a consequence rename as well:
. MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER to
MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_ID_ENCODES_OWNER
. PSA_KEY_ID_INIT to MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_INIT

The purpose of this commit and the following is for
psa_key_id_t to always be as defined by the PSA
Cryptography API specification.
Currently psa_key_id_t departs from its specification
definition when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER
configuration flag is set. In that configuration, it is set
to be equal to psa_key_file_id_t which in that configuration
encodes an owner identifier along the key identifier.
Type psa_key_file_id_t was meant to be the key identifier type
used throughout the library code. If
MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER is set it
includes both a key and owner identifier, otherwise it is
equal to psa_key_id_t.
It has not been the key identifier type throughout the
library so far because when the PSA Cryptography
specification was developped the library Doxygen
documentation was used to generate the PSA Cryptography API
specification thus the need to use psa_key_id_t and not
psa_key_file_id_t.
As this constraint does not hold anymore, move
to psa_key_file_id_t as the key identifier type throughout
the library code.
By the way, this commit updates the key identifier
initialization in the tests to be compatible with a
composit key identifier. A psa_key_id_make()
inline function is introduced to initialize key
identifiers (composit ot not) at runtime.

`psa_key_file_id_t` was defined in `crypto_platform.h` and
not `crypto_types.h` even if it wasn't platform dependent
because back when the PSA Crypto Specification was put
together `crypto_types.h` was meant to contain only types
that were intended to make it to the specification. There
is not such constraint anymore thus move the definition
of `psa_key_file_id_t` to crypto_types.h.

Change the encoding of key types, EC curve families and DH group
families to make the low-order bit a parity bit (with even parity).
This ensures that distinct key type values always have a Hamming
distance of at least 2, which makes it easier for implementations to
resist single bit flips.
All key types now have an encoding on 32 bits where the bottom 16 bits
are zero. Change to using 16 bits only.
Keep 32 bits for key types in storage, but move the significant
half-word from the top to the bottom.
Likewise, change EC curve and DH group families from 32 bits out of
which the top 8 and bottom 16 bits are zero, to 8 bits only.
Reorder psa_core_key_attributes_t to avoid padding.
Remove the values of curve encodings that are based on the TLS registry
and include the curve size, keeping only the new encoding that merely
encodes a curve family in 8 bits.
Keep the old constant names as aliases for the new values and
deprecate the old names.
Define constants for ECC curve families and DH group families. These
constants have 0x0000 in the lower 16 bits of the key type.
Support these constants in the implementation and in the PSA metadata
tests.
Switch the slot management and secure element driver HAL tests to the
new curve encodings. This requires SE driver code to become slightly
more clever when figuring out the bit-size of an imported EC key since
it now needs to take the data size into account.
Switch some documentation to the new encodings.
Remove the macro PSA_ECC_CURVE_BITS which can no longer be implemented.
Change the representation of psa_ecc_curve_t and psa_dh_group_t from
the IETF 16-bit encoding to a custom 24-bit encoding where the upper 8
bits represent a curve family and the lower 16 bits are the key size
in bits. Families are based on naming and mathematical similarity,
with sufficiently precise families that no two curves in a family have
the same bit size (for example SECP-R1 and SECP-R2 are two different
families).
As a consequence, the lower 16 bits of a key type value are always
either the key size or 0.
Key types are now encoded through a category in the upper 4 bits (bits
28-31) and a type-within-category in the next 11 bits (bits 17-27),
with bit 16 unused and bits 0-15 only used for the EC curve or DH
group.
For symmetric keys, bits 20-22 encode the block size (0x0=stream,
0x3=8B, 0x4=16B).
Change the numerical encoding of values for symmetric key types to
have 0000 as the lower 16 bits. Now the lower 16 bits are only used
for key types that have a subtype (EC curve or DH group).
Whether a parameter should be const is an implementation detail of the

Move backward compatibility aliases to a separate header. Reserve
crypto_extra.h for implementation-specific extensions that we intend
to keep supporting.
This is better documentation for users. New users should simply ignore
backward compatibility aliases, and old users can look at
crypto_compat.h to see what is deprecated without bothering about new
features appearing in crypto_extra.h.
This facilitates maintenance because scripts such as
generate_psa_constants that want to ignore backward compability
aliases can simply exclude crypto_compat.h from their parsing.
PSA_ASYMMETRIC_SIGNATURE_MAX_SIZE was taking the maximum ECDSA key
size as the ECDSA signature size. Fix it to use the actual maximum
size of an ECDSA signature.
Document that passing 0 to a close/destroy function does nothing and
returns PSA_SUCCESS.
Although this was not written explicitly, the specification strongly
suggested that this would return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE. While
returning INVALID_HANDLE makes sense, it was awkward for a very common
programming style where applications can store 0 in a handle variable
to indicate that the handle has been closed or has never been open:
applications had to either check if (handle != 0) before calling
psa_close_key(handle) or psa_destroy_key(handle), or ignore errors
from the close/destroy function. Now applications following this style
can just call psa_close_key(handle) or psa_destroy_key(handle).
Add a parameter to the p_validate_slot_number method to allow the
driver to modify the persistent data.
With the current structure of the core, the persistent data is already
updated. All it took was adding a way to modify it.
When registering a key in a secure element, go through the transaction
mechanism. This makes the code simpler, at the expense of a few extra
storage operations. Given that registering a key is typically very
rare over the lifetime of a device, this is an acceptable loss.
Drivers must now have a p_validate_slot_number method, otherwise
registering a key is not possible. This reduces the risk that due to a
mistake during the integration of a device, an application might claim
a slot in a way that is not supported by the driver.
Define a vendor-range within the the private use ranges in the IANA
registry. Provide recommendations for how to support vendor-defined

If none of the inputs to a key derivation is a
PSA_KEY_DERIVATION_INPUT_SECRET passed with
psa_key_derivation_input_key(), forbid
psa_key_derivation_output_key(). It usually doesn't make sense to
derive a key object if the secret isn't itself a proper key.
Allow a direct input as the SECRET input step in a key derivation, in
addition to allowing DERIVE keys. This makes it easier for
applications to run a key derivation where the "secret" input is
obtained from somewhere else. This makes it possible for the "secret"
input to be empty (keys cannot be empty), which some protocols do (for
example the IV derivation in EAP-TLS).
Conversely, allow a RAW_DATA key as the INFO/LABEL/SALT/SEED input to a key
derivation, in addition to allowing direct inputs. This doesn't
improve security, but removes a step when a personalization parameter
is stored in the key store, and allows this personalization parameter
to remain opaque.
Add test cases that explore step/key-type-and-keyhood combinations.
Keys of size 0 generally don't make sense: a key is supposed to be
secret. There is one edge case which is "raw data" keys, which are
useful to store non-key objects in the same storage location as keys.
However those are also problematic because they involve a zero-length
buffer. Manipulating zero-length buffers in C requires special cases
with functions like malloc() and memcpy(). Additionally, 0 as a key
size already has a meaning "unspecified", which does not always
overlap seamlessly with the meaning "0".
Therefore, forbid keys of size 0. No implementation may accept them.
Clarify how key creation functions use attributes. Explain the meaning
of attribute values, espcially what 0 means in each field where it has
a special meaning. Explain what an algorithm usage policy can be (an
algorithm, a wildcard with ANY_HASH, or 0).
* open output distinct key handles
* each handle must be closed
* destroying a key does not invalidate other handles
* closing a key can/might fail an active operation (but not required)
It may be possible that the implementation runs out of
memory when exporting a key from storage or a secure
element. For example, it may not be possible to directly
move the data from storage to the caller, so the implementation
will have to buffer the material temporarily (an issue if dynamic
memory allocation scheme is used). For a large key
this is more likely to return.
It may be possible that an implementation does not
fetch key material until a command like
this is called and such an error may occur if an
off-chip secure storage dependency may have been wiped.
Note that PSA_ERROR_NOT_PERMITTED is not included
because I can't think of a scenario where you have
a valid key handle but aren't allowed to read the
attributes
