Use m for the bit size of the field order, not q which is
traditionally the field order.
Correct and clarify the private key representation format as has been
done for the private key and ECDH shared secret formats.
The endianness actually depends on the curve type.
Correct the terminology around "curve size" and "order of the curve".
I tried to find a formulation that is comprehensible to programmers
who do not know the underlying mathematics, but nonetheless correct
and precise.
Use similar terminology in other places that were using "order of the
curve" to describe the bit size associated with the curve.
psa_key_derivation requires the caller to specify a maximum capacity.
This commit adds a special value that indicates that the maximum
capacity should be the maximum supported by the algorithm. This is
currently meant only for selection algorithms used on the shared
secret produced by a key agreement.
A key selection algorithm is similar to a key derivation algorithm in
that it takes a secret input and produces a secret output stream.
However, unlike key derivation algorithms, there is no expectation
that the input cannot be reconstructed from the output. Key selection
algorithms are exclusively meant to be used on the output of a key
agreement algorithm to select chunks of the shared secret.
Change the import/export format of private elliptic curve keys from
RFC 5915 to the raw secret value. This commit updates the format
specification and the import code, but not the export code.
Add comments noting that the maximum length of a MAC must fit in
PSA_ALG_MAC_TRUNCATION_MASK. Add a unit test that verifies that the
maximum MAC size fits.
The macro was used under the name PSA_ALG_IS_BLOCK_CIPHER_MAC but
defined as PSA_ALG_IS_CIPHER_MAC. That wouldn't have worked if we used
this macro (we currently don't but it may become useful).
TLS now defines named curves in the "TLS Supported Groups registry",
but we're using the encoding only for elliptic curves, so don't
include values that aren't named curve.
While we're at it, upgrade the reference to the shiny new RFC 8422.
OFB and CFB are streaming modes. XTS is a not a cipher mode but it
doesn't use a separate padding step. This leaves only CBC as a block
cipher mode that needs a padding step.
Since CBC is the only mode that uses a separate padding step, and is
likely to remain the only mode in the future, encode the padding mode
directly in the algorithm constant, rather than building up an
algorithm value from a chaining mode and a padding mode. This greatly
simplifies the interface as well as some parts of the implementation.
There were only 5 categories (now 4). Reduce the category mask from 7
bits to 3.
Combine unformatted, not-necessarily-uniform keys (HMAC, derivation)
with raw data.
Reintroduce a KEY_TYPE_IS_UNSTRUCTURED macro (which used to exist
under the name KEY_TYPE_IS_RAW_DATA macro) for key types that don't
have any structure, including both should-be-uniform keys (such as
block cipher and stream cipher keys) and not-necessarily-uniform
keys (such as HMAC keys and secrets for key derivation).
MBEDTLS_PK_WRITE_C only requires either MBEDTLS_RSA_C or MBEDTLS_ECP_C to be defined.
Added wrappers to handle the cases where only one has been defined.
Moved mbedtls_pk_init to be within the ifdefs, so it's only called if appropriate.
* Broken link #PSA_ALG_SHA_256
* Duplicate group name "generators"
* Missing documentation in psa_generate_key_extra_rsa due to bad magic

New key type PSA_KEY_TYPE_DERIVE. New usage flag PSA_KEY_USAGE_DERIVE.
New function psa_key_derivation.
No key derivation algorithm is implemented yet. The code may not
compile with -Wunused.
Write some unit test code for psa_key_derivation. Most of it cannot be
used yet due to the lack of a key derivation algorithm.
