This field determines whether a cipher context should
use an external implementation of the PSA Crypto API for
cryptographic operations, or Mbed TLS' own crypto library.
The commit also adds dummy implementations for the cipher API.
In case of AEAD ciphers, the cipher mode (and not even the entire content
of mbedtls_cipher_info_t) doesn't uniquely determine a psa_algorithm_t
because it doesn't specify the AEAD tag length, which however is included
in psa_algorithm_t identifiers.
This commit adds a tag length value to mbedtls_psa_translate_cipher_mode()
to account for that ambiguity.
This commit adds the header file mbedtls/psa_util.h which contains
static utility functions `mbedtls_psa_xxx()` used in the integration
of PSA Crypto into Mbed TLS.
Warning: These functions are internal only and may change at any time.
Deprecate the module-specific XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED and
XXX_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE errors, as alternative implementations should now
return `MBEDTLS_ERR_PLATFORM_HW_FAILED` and
`MBEDTLS_ERR_PLATFORM_FEATURE_UNSUPPORTED`.
Context:
The macro `MBEDTLS_ECP_BUDGET()` is called before performing a
number of potentially time-consuming ECC operations. If restartable
ECC is enabled, it wraps a call to `mbedtls_ecp_check_budget()`
which in turn checks if the requested number of operations can be
performed without exceeding the maximum number of consecutive ECC
operations.
Issue:
The function `mbedtls_ecp_check_budget()` expects a the number
of requested operations to be given as a value of type `unsigned`,
while some calls of the wrapper macro `MBEDTLS_ECP_BUDGET()` use
expressions of type `size_t`.
This rightfully leads to warnings about implicit truncation
from `size_t` to `unsigned` on some compilers.
Fix:
This commit makes the truncation explicit by adding an explicit cast
to `unsigned` in the expansion of the `MBEDTLS_ECP_BUDGET()` macro.
Justification:
Functionally, the new version is equivalent to the previous code.
The warning about truncation can be discarded because, as can be
inferred from `ecp.h`, the number of requested operations is never
larger than 1000.
Rename the PLATFORM HW error, to avoid ABI breakage with Mbed OS.
The value changed as well, as previous value was not in the range of
Mbed TLS low level error codes.
The previous comment in ecp.h that only functions that take a "restart
context" argument can restart was wrong due to ECDH and SSL functions.
Changing that criterion to "document says if can return IN PROGRESS".
This requires updating the documentation of the SSL functions to mention this
explicitly, but it's something we really ought to do anyway, a bit
embarrassing that this wasn't done already - callers need to know what
`MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_xxx` error codes to special-case. Note that the documentation
of the relevant functions was in a suboptimal state, so it was improved in the
process - it could use some more improvement, but only the changes that helped
cleanly insert the info about the IN_PROGRESS part were done here.
Also, while updating the ecp.h comment, I noticed several functions in the
ECDH module were wrongfully documented as restartable, which is probably a
left-over from the days before `mbedtls_ecdh_enable_restart()` was introduced.
Fixing that as well, to make the criterion used in ecp.h correct.
