This is the most common mode and the only mode that Mbed TLS functions
fully supports (mbedtls_rsa_rsassa_pss_verify_ext can verify
signatures with a different salt length).
Explicitly state that calling abort is safe after initializing to
zero.
Explicitly state that calling abort on an inactive operation is safe,
and replace "active" by "initialized" in the description of the
parameter.
Get rid of the recommendation for implementers to try to handle
uninitialized structures safely. It's good advice in principle but
cannot be achieved in a robust way and the wording was confusing.
No common signature algorithm uses a salt (RSA-PKCS#1v1.5, RSA-PSS,
DSA, ECDSA, EdDSA). We don't even take an IV for MAC whereas MAC
algorithms with IV are uncommon but heard of. So remove the salt
parameter from psa_asymmetric_sign and psa_asymmetric_verify.
Make function names for multipart operations more consistent (cipher
edition).
Rename symmetric cipher multipart operation functions so that they all
start with psa_cipher_:
* psa_encrypt_setup -> psa_cipher_encrypt_setup
* psa_decrypt_setup -> psa_cipher_decrypt_setup
* psa_encrypt_set_iv -> psa_cipher_set_iv
* psa_encrypt_generate_iv -> psa_cipher_generate_iv
Make function names for multipart operations more consistent (MAC
setup edition).
Split psa_mac_setup into two functions psa_mac_sign_setup and
psa_mac_verify_setup. These functions behave identically except that
they require different usage flags on the key. The goal of the split
is to enforce the key policy during setup rather than at the end of
the operation (which was a bit of a hack).
In psa_mac_sign_finish and psa_mac_verify_finish, if the operation is
of the wrong type, abort the operation before returning BAD_STATE.
Macros such as PSA_HASH_SIZE whose definitions can be the same
everywhere except in implementations that support non-standard
algorithms remain in crypto.h, at least for the time being.
This header will contain macros that calculate buffer sizes, whose
semantics are standardized but whose definitions are
implementation-specific because they depend on the available algorithms
and on some permitted buffer size tolerances.
Move size macros from crypto_struct.h to crypto_sizes.h, because these
definitions need to be available both in the frontend and in the
backend, whereas structures have different contents.
Change the representation of an ECDSA signature from the ASN.1 DER
encoding used in TLS and X.509, to the concatenation of r and s
in big-endian order with a fixed size. A fixed size helps memory and
buffer management and this representation is generally easier to use
for anything that doesn't require the ASN.1 representation. This is
the same representation as PKCS#11 (Cryptoki) except that PKCS#11
allows r and s to be truncated (both to the same length), which
complicates the implementation and negates the advantage of a
fixed-size representation.
* Distinguish randomized ECDSA from deterministic ECDSA.
* Deterministic ECDSA needs to be parametrized by a hash.
* Randomized ECDSA only uses the hash for the initial hash step,
but add ECDSA(hash) algorithms anyway so that all the signature
algorithms encode the initial hashing step.
* Add brief documentation for the ECDSA signature mechanisms.
* Also define DSA signature mechanisms while I'm at it. There were
already key types for DSA.
* PSS needs to be parametrized by a hash.
* Don't use `_MGF1` in the names of macros for OAEP and PSS. No one
ever uses anything else.
* Add brief documentation for the RSA signature mechanisms.
Doxygen interprets `\param` as starting documentation for a new param, or
to extend a previously started `\param` documentation when the same
reference is used. The intention here was to reference the function
parameter, not extend the previous documentation. Use `\p` to refer to
function parameters.
It isn't used to define other macros and it doesn't seem that useful
for users. Remove it, we can reintroduce it if needed.
Define a similar function key_type_is_raw_bytes in the implementation
with a clear semantics: it's a key that's represented as a struct
raw_data.
When calling psa_generate_key, pass the size of the parameters buffer
explicitly. This makes calls more verbose but less error-prone. This
also has the benefit that in an implementation with separation, the
frontend knows how many bytes to send to the backend without needing
to know about each key type.
Instead of rolling our own list of elliptic curve identifiers, use one
from somewhere. Pick TLS because it's the right size (16 bits) and
it's as good as any.

All the conflicts are concurrent additions where the order doesn't
matter. I put the code from feature-psa (key policy) before the code
from PR #13 (key lifetime).
psa_get_key_lifetime() behavior changed regarding empty slots, now
it return the lifetime of and empty slots. Documentation in header
file updated accordingly.
Document key import/export functions, hash functions, and asymmetric
sign/verify, as well as some related macros and types.
Nicer formatting for return values: use \retval.
New header file crypto_struct.h. The main file crypto.sh declares
structures which are implementation-defined. These structures must be
defined in crypto_struct.h, which is included at the end so that the
structures can use types defined in crypto.h.
Implement psa_hash_start, psa_hash_update and psa_hash_final. This
should work for all hash algorithms supported by Mbed TLS, but has
only been smoke-tested for SHA-256, and only in the nominal case.
Define psa_key_type_t and a first stab at a few values.
New functions psa_import_key, psa_export_key, psa_destroy_key,
psa_get_key_information. Implement them for raw data and RSA.
Under the hood, create an in-memory, fixed-size keystore with room
for MBEDTLS_PSA_KEY_SLOT_COUNT - 1 keys.
New module psa_crypto.c (MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C):
Platform Security Architecture compatibility layer on top of
libmedcrypto.
Implement psa_crypto_init function which sets up a RNG.
Add a mbedtls_psa_crypto_free function which deinitializes the
library.
Define a first batch of error codes.
