The OpenSSL libraries will ensure that they do. .PP The primary responsibility of the KEYMGMT operation is to hold the provider side key data for the OpenSSL library EVP_PKEY structure. .PP All "functions" mentioned here are passed as function pointers between \&\fIlibcrypto\fR and the provider in \fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) arrays via \&\fBOSSL_ALGORITHM\fR\|(3) arrays that are returned by the provider's \&\fBprovider_query_operation()\fR function (see "Provider Functions" in \fBprovider\-base\fR\|(7)). .PP All these "functions" have a corresponding function type definition named \fBOSSL_FUNC_{name}_fn\fR, and a helper function to retrieve the function pointer from a \fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) element named \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_{name}\fR. For example, the "function" \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_new()\fR has these: .PP .Vb 3 \& typedef void *(OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_new_fn)(void *provctx); \& static ossl_inline OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_new_fn \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_new(const OSSL_DISPATCH *opf); .Ve .PP \&\fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) arrays are indexed by numbers that are provided as macros in \fBopenssl\-core_dispatch.h\fR\|(7), as follows: .PP .Vb 2 \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_new OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_NEW \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_free OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_FREE \& \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_init OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GEN_INIT \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_set_template OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GEN_SET_TEMPLATE \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_get_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GEN_GET_PARAMS \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_gettable_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GEN_GETTABLE_PARAMS \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_set_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GEN_SET_PARAMS \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_settable_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GEN_SETTABLE_PARAMS \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GEN \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_cleanup OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GEN_CLEANUP \& \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_load OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_LOAD \& \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_get_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GET_PARAMS \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gettable_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GETTABLE_PARAMS \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_set_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_SET_PARAMS \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_settable_params OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_SETTABLE_PARAMS \& \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_query_operation_name OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_QUERY_OPERATION_NAME \& \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_has OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_HAS \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_validate OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_VALIDATE \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_match OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_MATCH \& \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_IMPORT \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_IMPORT_TYPES \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types_ex OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_IMPORT_TYPES_EX \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_EXPORT \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_EXPORT_TYPES \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types_ex OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_EXPORT_TYPES_EX \& \& OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_dup OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_DUP .Ve .SS "Key Objects" .IX Subsection "Key Objects" A key object is a collection of data for an asymmetric key, and is represented as \fIkeydata\fR in this manual. .PP The exact contents of a key object are defined by the provider, and it is assumed that different operations in one and the same provider use the exact same structure to represent this collection of data, so that for example, a key object that has been created using the KEYMGMT interface that we document here can be passed as is to other provider operations, such as \fBOP_signature_sign_init()\fR (see \&\fBprovider\-signature\fR\|(7)). .PP With some of the KEYMGMT functions, it's possible to select a specific subset of data to handle, governed by the bits in a \fIselection\fR indicator. The bits are: .IP \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_PRIVATE_KEY\fR 4 .IX Item "OSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_PRIVATE_KEY" Indicating that the private key data in a key object should be considered. .IP \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_PUBLIC_KEY\fR 4 .IX Item "OSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_PUBLIC_KEY" Indicating that the public key data in a key object should be considered. .IP \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS\fR 4 .IX Item "OSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS" Indicating that the domain parameters in a key object should be considered. .IP \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_OTHER_PARAMETERS\fR 4 .IX Item "OSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_OTHER_PARAMETERS" Indicating that other parameters in a key object should be considered. .Sp Other parameters are key parameters that don't fit any other classification. In other words, this particular selector bit works as a last resort bit bucket selector. .PP Some selector bits have also been combined for easier use: .IP \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_ALL_PARAMETERS\fR 4 .IX Item "OSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_ALL_PARAMETERS" Indicating that all key object parameters should be considered, regardless of their more granular classification. .Sp This is a combination of \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS\fR and \&\fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_OTHER_PARAMETERS\fR. .IP \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_KEYPAIR\fR 4 .IX Item "OSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_KEYPAIR" Indicating that both the whole key pair in a key object should be considered, i.e. the combination of public and private key. .Sp This is a combination of \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_PRIVATE_KEY\fR and \&\fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_PUBLIC_KEY\fR. .IP \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_ALL\fR 4 .IX Item "OSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_ALL" Indicating that everything in a key object should be considered. .PP The exact interpretation of those bits or how they combine is left to each function where you can specify a selector. .PP It's left to the provider implementation to decide what is reasonable to do with regards to received selector bits and how to do it. Among others, an implementation of \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_match()\fR might opt to not compare the private half if it has compared the public half, since a match of one half implies a match of the other half. .SS "Constructing and Destructing Functions" .IX Subsection "Constructing and Destructing Functions" \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_new()\fR should create a provider side key object. The provider context \fIprovctx\fR is passed and may be incorporated in the key object, but that is not mandatory. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_free()\fR should free the passed \fIkeydata\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_init()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_set_template()\fR, \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_get_params()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_gettable_params()\fR, \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_set_params()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_settable_params()\fR, \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_cleanup()\fR work together as a more elaborate context based key object constructor. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_init()\fR should create the key object generation context and initialize it with \fIselections\fR, which will determine what kind of contents the key object to be generated should get. The \fIparams\fR, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to using \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_set_params()\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_set_template()\fR should add \fItemplate\fR to the context \&\fIgenctx\fR. The \fItemplate\fR is assumed to be a key object constructed with the same KEYMGMT, and from which content that the implementation chooses can be used as a template for the key object to be generated. Typically, the generation of a DSA or DH key would get the domain parameters from this \fItemplate\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_get_params()\fR should retrieve parameters into \&\fIparams\fR in the key object generation context \fIgenctx\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_gettable_params()\fR should return a constant array of descriptor \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3), for parameters that \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_get_params()\fR can handle. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_set_params()\fR should set additional parameters from \&\fIparams\fR in the key object generation context \fIgenctx\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_settable_params()\fR should return a constant array of descriptor \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3), for parameters that \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_set_params()\fR can handle. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen()\fR should perform the key object generation itself, and return the result. The callback \fIcb\fR should be called at regular intervals with indications on how the key object generation progresses. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_cleanup()\fR should clean up and free the key object generation context \fIgenctx\fR .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_load()\fR creates a provider side key object based on a \&\fIreference\fR object with a size of \fIreference_sz\fR bytes, that only the provider knows how to interpret, but that may come from other operations. Outside the provider, this reference is simply an array of bytes. .PP At least one of \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_new()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen()\fR and \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_load()\fR are mandatory, as well as \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_free()\fR and \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_has()\fR. Additionally, if \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen()\fR is present, \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_init()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gen_cleanup()\fR must be present as well. .SS "Key Object Information Functions" .IX Subsection "Key Object Information Functions" \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_get_params()\fR should extract information data associated with the given \fIkeydata\fR, see "Common Information Parameters". .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gettable_params()\fR should return a constant array of descriptor \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3), for parameters that \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_get_params()\fR can handle. .PP If \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_gettable_params()\fR is present, \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_get_params()\fR must also be present, and vice versa. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_set_params()\fR should update information data associated with the given \fIkeydata\fR, see "Common Information Parameters". .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_settable_params()\fR should return a constant array of descriptor \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3), for parameters that \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_set_params()\fR can handle. .PP If \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_settable_params()\fR is present, \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_set_params()\fR must also be present, and vice versa. .SS "Key Object Checking Functions" .IX Subsection "Key Object Checking Functions" \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_query_operation_name()\fR should return the name of the supported algorithm for the operation \fIoperation_id\fR. This is similar to \fBprovider_query_operation()\fR (see \fBprovider\-base\fR\|(7)), but only works as an advisory. If this function is not present, or returns NULL, the caller is free to assume that there's an algorithm from the same provider, of the same name as the one used to fetch the keymgmt and try to use that. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_has()\fR should check whether the given \fIkeydata\fR contains the subsets of data indicated by the \fIselector\fR. A combination of several selector bits must consider all those subsets, not just one. An implementation is, however, free to consider an empty subset of data to still be a valid subset. For algorithms where some selection is not meaningful such as \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS\fR for RSA keys the function should just return 1 as the selected subset is not really missing in the key. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_validate()\fR should check if the \fIkeydata\fR contains valid data subsets indicated by \fIselection\fR. Some combined selections of data subsets may cause validation of the combined data. For example, the combination of \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_PRIVATE_KEY\fR and \&\fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_PUBLIC_KEY\fR (or \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_KEYPAIR\fR for short) is expected to check that the pairwise consistency of \&\fIkeydata\fR is valid. The \fIchecktype\fR parameter controls what type of check is performed on the subset of data. Two types of check are defined: \&\fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_VALIDATE_FULL_CHECK\fR and \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_VALIDATE_QUICK_CHECK\fR. The interpretation of how much checking is performed in a full check versus a quick check is key type specific. Some providers may have no distinction between a full check and a quick check. For algorithms where some selection is not meaningful such as \fBOSSL_KEYMGMT_SELECT_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS\fR for RSA keys the function should just return 1 as there is nothing to validate for that selection. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_match()\fR should check if the data subset indicated by \&\fIselection\fR in \fIkeydata1\fR and \fIkeydata2\fR match. It is assumed that the caller has ensured that \fIkeydata1\fR and \fIkeydata2\fR are both owned by the implementation of this function. .SS "Key Object Import, Export and Duplication Functions" .IX Subsection "Key Object Import, Export and Duplication Functions" \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import()\fR should import data indicated by \fIselection\fR into \&\fIkeydata\fR with values taken from the \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array \fIparams\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export()\fR should extract values indicated by \fIselection\fR from \fIkeydata\fR, create an \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array with them and call \&\fIparam_cb\fR with that array as well as the given \fIcbarg\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types_ex()\fR should return a constant array of descriptor \&\fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) for data indicated by \fIselection\fR, for parameters that \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import()\fR can handle. Either \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types()\fR or \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types_ex()\fR, must be implemented, if \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types_ex()\fR is implemented, then it is preferred over \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types()\fR. Providers that are supposed to be backward compatible with OpenSSL 3.0 or 3.1 must continue to implement \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_import_types()\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types_ex()\fR should return a constant array of descriptor \&\fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) for data indicated by \fIselection\fR, that the \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export()\fR callback can expect to receive. Either \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types()\fR or \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types_ex()\fR, must be implemented, if \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types_ex()\fR is implemented, then it is preferred over \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types()\fR. Providers that are supposed to be backward compatible with OpenSSL 3.0 or 3.1 must continue to implement \fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_export_types()\fR. .PP \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_dup()\fR should duplicate data subsets indicated by \&\fIselection\fR or the whole key data \fIkeydata_from\fR and create a new provider side key object with the data. .SS "Common Information Parameters" .IX Subsection "Common Information Parameters" See \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) for further details on the parameters structure. .PP Common information parameters currently recognised by all built-in keymgmt algorithms are as follows: .IP """bits"" (\fBOSSL_PKEY_PARAM_BITS\fR) " 4 .IX Item """bits"" (OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_BITS) " The value should be the cryptographic length of the cryptosystem to which the key belongs, in bits.
