generate_key is a more classical name. The longer name was only
introduced to avoid confusion with getting a key from a generator,
which is key derivation, but we no longer use the generator
terminology so this reason no longer applies.
perl -i -pe 's/psa_generate_random_key/psa_generate_key/g' $(git ls-files)
Generators are mostly about key derivation (currently: only about key
derivation). "Generator" is not a commonly used term in cryptography.
So favor "derivation" as terminology. Call a generator a key
derivation operation structure, since it behaves like other multipart
operation structures. Furthermore, the function names are not fully
consistent.
In this commit, I rename the functions to consistently have the prefix
"psa_key_derivation_". I used the following command:
perl -i -pe '%t = (
psa_crypto_generator_t => "psa_key_derivation_operation_t",
psa_crypto_generator_init => "psa_key_derivation_init",
psa_key_derivation_setup => "psa_key_derivation_setup",
psa_key_derivation_input_key => "psa_key_derivation_input_key",
psa_key_derivation_input_bytes => "psa_key_derivation_input_bytes",
psa_key_agreement => "psa_key_derivation_key_agreement",
psa_set_generator_capacity => "psa_key_derivation_set_capacity",
psa_get_generator_capacity => "psa_key_derivation_get_capacity",
psa_generator_read => "psa_key_derivation_output_bytes",
psa_generate_derived_key => "psa_key_derivation_output_key",
psa_generator_abort => "psa_key_derivation_abort",
PSA_CRYPTO_GENERATOR_INIT => "PSA_KEY_DERIVATION_OPERATION_INIT",
PSA_GENERATOR_UNBRIDLED_CAPACITY => "PSA_KEY_DERIVATION_UNLIMITED_CAPACITY",
); s/\b(@{[join("|", keys %t)]})\b/$t{$1}/ge' $(git ls-files)
Read extra data from the domain parameters in the attribute structure
instead of taking an argument on the function call.
Implement this for RSA key generation, where the public exponent can
be set as a domain parameter.
Add tests that generate RSA keys with various public exponents.
Switch to the terminology "key file identifier", as has been done in
the code.
The owner uid is now in the upper 32 bits of the key file identifier,
which facilitates namespacing.
Describe the storage format for keys and random seed in Mbed Crypto
0.1.0 released with Mbed OS 5.11, over C stdio and over ITS with
32-bit file identifiers.
Describe the proposed storage format for keys and random seed in the
future release of Mbed Crypto for Mbed OS 5.12, over C stdio and over
ITS with 64-bit file identifiers.
Add new initializers for key policies and use them in our docs, example
programs, tests, and library code. Prefer using the macro initializers
due to their straightforwardness.
