This commit re-implements the previously introduced internal
verification chain API in the case where verification callbacks
are disabled. In this situation, it is not necessary to maintain
the list of individual certificates and flags comprising the
verification chain - instead, it suffices to just keep track
of the length and the total (=merged) flags.
When verifying an X.509 certificate, the current verification logic
maintains an instance of the internal mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_chain
structure representing the state of the verification process. This
instance references the list of certificates that comprise the chain
built so far together with their verification flags. This information
must be stored during verification because it's being passed to the
verification callback at the end of verification - if the user has
specified those.
If the user hasn't specified a verification callback, it is not
necessary to maintain the list of CRTs, and it is also not necessary
to maintain verification flags for each CRT individually, as they're
merged at the end of the verification process.
To allow a readable simplification of the code in case no verification
callbacks are used, this commit introduces a zero-cost abstraction layer
for the functionality that's required from the verification chain structure:
- init/reset
- add a new CRT to the chain
- get pointer to current CRT flags
- add flags to EE certificate
- get current chain length
- trigger callbacks and get final (merged) flags
This gives flexibility for re-implementing the verification chain
structure, e.g. in the case where no verification callbacks are
provided, and there's hence no need to store CRTs and flags
individually. This will be done in a later commit.
When MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH is set, the underlying digest's
context is embedded into mbedtls_md_context_t, which is
zeroized before the underlying digest's init() function
is called. For those digests where initialization is
zeroization, the init() call can therefore be omitted.
Similarly, when free()-ing an mbedtls_md_context_t, the
entire context is zeroized in the end, hence if the
underlying digest's free() function is zeroization,
it can be omitted.
Recall that in the default configuration, Mbed TLS provides access
digest implementations through two layers of indirection:
1) Call of MD API (e.g. mbedtls_md_update())
2) Call of function pointer from MD info structure
3) Actual digest implementation (e.g. mbedtls_sha256_update()).
Ideally, if only a single digest is enabled - say SHA-256 - then calling
mbedtls_md_update() should _directly_ jump to mbedtls_sha256_update(),
with both layers of indirection removed. So far, however, setting
MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH will only remove the second - function pointer -
layer of indirection, while keeping the non-inlined stub implementations
of e.g. mbedtls_md_update() around.
This commit is a step towards allowing to define implementations of
the MD API as `static inline` in case we know that they are so small
that they should be defined in md.h and not in md.c.
In a nutshell, the approach is as follows: For an MD API function
mbedtls_md_xxx() that should be inlin-able, introduce its implementation
as a `static inline` wrapper `mbedtls_md_xxx_internal()` in md.h,
and then define mbedtls_md_xxx() either in md.h or in md.c, by just
calling mbedtls_md_xxx_internal().
Moving the implementations of those MD API functions that should be
inlinable to md.h requires the presence of both the MD info struct
and all specific digest wrapper functions in md.h, and this is what
this commit ensures, by moving them from md.c into a new internal
header file md_internal.h. Implementing the aforementioned wrappers for
those MD API that should be inlinable is left for subsequent commits.
This commit modifies check_config.h to check that precisely one
hash is enabled if MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH is set.
This is not only a reasonable expectation, it is also necessary,
because test suites assume that if a digest is enabled, it is also
accessible through the MD abstraction layer.
This commit introduces the configuration option
MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH
which can be used to hardcode support for a single digest algorithm
at compile-time, at the benefit of reduced code-size.
To use, it needs to be defined to evaluate to a macro of the form
MBEDTLS_MD_INFO_{DIGEST}, and macros MBEDTLS_MD_INFO_{DIGEST}_FIELD
must be defined, giving rise to the various aspects (name, type,
size, ...) of the chosen digest algorithm. MBEDTLS_MD_INFO_SHA256
provides an example, but other algorithms can be added if needed.
At the moment, the effect of using MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH is that
the implementation of the MD API (e.g. mbedtls_md_update()) need no
longer to through the abstraction of the mbedtls_md_info structures
by calling their corresponding function pointers fields (akin to
virtual functions in C++), but the directly call the corresponding
core digest function (such as mbedtls_sha256_update()).
Therefore, MBEDTLS_MD_SINGLE_HASH so far removes the second layer
of indirection in the chain
User calls MD API -> MD API calls underlying digest impl'n
-> Core digest impl'n does the actual work,
but the first indirection remains, as the MD API remains untouched
and cannot yet be inlined. Studying to what extend inlining the
shortened MD API implementations would lead to further code-savings
is left for a later commit.
In builds enabling only a single MD digest, we want to be able to
implement the MD info getter functions by returning compile-time
constants matching the fields of the MD info structures used so far.
To avoid information duplication hardening maintainability, this
commit introduces the possibility of providing the various aspects
of a particular digest implementation by defining macros
MBEDTLS_MD_INFO_DIGEST_FIELD (e.g. MBEDTLS_MD_INFO_SHA256_SIZE)
and to generate the corresponding mbedtls_md_info instance from
this set of macros, via the new macro MBEDTLS_MD_INFO().
This way, we'll be able to switch between MD info based builds
and single-digest builds without information duplication.
This commit continues the introduction of the MD digest implementation
abstraction layer given by `mbedtls_md_handle_t` by adding getter
functions returning the various properties of an implementation
(e.g. name, digest type, digest size). For the existing implementation,
these are just structure field accesses; however, in configurations
hardcoding the choice of a fixed digest algorithm, we'll be able to
implement them as inline functions returning compile-time constants.
As has been previously done for ciphersuites, this commit introduces
a zero-cost abstraction layer around the type
mbedtls_md_info const *
whose valid values represent implementations of message digest algorithms.
Access to a particular digest implementation can be requested by name or
digest ID through the API mbedtls_md_info_from_xxx(), which either returns
a valid implementation or NULL, representing failure.
This commit replaces such uses of `mbedtls_md_info const *` by an abstract
type `mbedtls_md_handle_t` whose valid values represent digest implementations,
and which has a designated invalid value MBEDTLS_MD_INVALID_HANDLE.
The purpose of this abstraction layer is to pave the way for builds which
support precisely one digest algorithm. In this case, mbedtls_md_handle_t
can be implemented as a two-valued type, with one value representing the
invalid handle, and the unique valid value representing the unique enabled
digest.
This commit changes the internal identifiers
MBEDTLS_SSL_MINOR_VERSION_XXX
in DTLS-only builds to match the version encoding used by the
DTLS standard, encoding DTLS 1.0 as 255 and DTLS 1.2 as DTLS 1.0.
Accordingly, the version comparison functions introduced in the
previous commit must be re-implemented, as older version have
_larger_ identifiers now.
Further, since we identify DTLS 1.0 as MBEDTLS_SSL_MINOR_VERSION_2
and DTLS 1.2 as MBEDTLS_SSL_MINOR_VERSION_3, what remains is to
define MBEDTLS_SSL_MINOR_VERSION_{0|1}. While these don't have any
meaning meaning in DTLS, they still need to be set and obey the
ordering in the sense that the version comparison functions '<='
should attest that
MBEDTLS_SSL_MINOR_VERSION_i '<=' MBEDTLS_SSL_MINOR_VERSION_j
for i <= j. Since '<=' is actually >= and the wire format value
for DTLS 1.0 == MBEDTLS_SSL_MINOR_VERSION_2 is the 255, this
forces us to use values beyond 255, and hence to extend the
storage type for minor versions from uint8_t to uint16_t.
Moved some functions under defined to get rid of compiler warnings.
Functions moved under defines:
- mbedtls_x509_get_alg
- mbedtls_x509_get_alg_null
- mbedtls_x509_get_time
- mbedtls_x509_get_ext
- mbedtls_x509_sig_alg_gets
- mbedtls_x509_key_size_helper
Left one function (mbedtls_x509_write_names) as non static as it increased code size.
Previously, this wasn't necessary because ecdh.h was included
through ssl.h, but now that this is no longer the case (because
ssl.h doesn't use ECDH), we have to include it explicitly.
Previously, ecp.h was included only if MBEDTLS_ECDH_C was set,
which broke the build in configurations using ECDSA, but not ECDH.
An example of such a config is configs/config-thread.h, which
uses ECJPAKE exclusively.
Moreover, the inclusion of ecdh.h isn't needed, because the header
only uses constants defined in the ECP module.
There is no apparent direct dependency, and the indirect dependency
through the RSA and legacy ECP modules is already encoded in the
chain
MBEDTLS_X509_USE_C
-> MBEDTLS_PK_PARSE_C
-> MBEDTLS_PK_C
-> MBEDTLS_RSA_C || MBEDTLS_ECP_C
-> MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C
which will be modified to
MBEDTLS_X509_USE_C
-> MBEDTLS_PK_PARSE_C
-> MBEDTLS_PK_C
-> MBEDTLS_RSA_C || MBEDTLS_ECP_C || MBEDTLS_USE_TINYCRYPT
in which case MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C is not needed for MBEDTLS_X509_USE_C
if only MBEDTLS_USE_TINYCRYPT is set, but not MBEDTLS_RSA_C or
MBEDTLS_ECP_C.
asn1.h uses uint8_t which is defined in stdint.h.
This wasn't caught earlier by the luck that whenever asn1.h
was included, another header was included earlier that did in
turn include stdint.h.
Remark: Including ecp.h is actually redundant because it's
also included from ecdh.h. However, it's good practice to
explicitly include header files that are being used directly,
and ssl.h does use MBEDTLS_ECP_MAX_BYTES which is defined in ecp.h.
ssl.h contains a dummy union of fields each large enough to
hold the PMS for a particular ciphersuite. In particular, for
pure-ECDH ciphersuites, it contains a field large enough to
hold the ECDH shared secret in any of the enabled curves.
So far, this upper bound was unconditionally chosen to be
MBEDTLS_ECP_MAX_BYTES from the ECP module.
With the introduction of TinyCrypt as an alternative implementation
for ECDH, we need to
- guard the use of MBEDTLS_ECP_MAX_BYTES because MBEDTLS_ECP_C
is no longer implied by the surrounding MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_XXX
guards
- add another field which contains the maximum length of shared
ECDH secrets for curves supported by TinyCrypt.
mbedtls/ecp.h defines constants
MBEDTLS_ECP_PF_UNCOMPRESSED
MBEDTLS_ECP_PF_COMPRESSED
MBEDTLS_ECP_TLS_NAMED_CURVE
which regard the encoding of elliptic curves and curve point formats in TLS.
As such, they should be defined in the SSL namespace. Asides, this will help
replacing the legacy ECC crypto by alternative ECC implementations.
The PK-type MBEDTLS_PK_ECDSA isn't really used by the library.
Especially, when parsing a generic EC key, a PK context of type
MBEDTLS_PK_ECKEY will be requested. Hence, to drop in TinyCrypt
for the legacy-ECC implementation, the PK type that TinyCrypt
implements must be MBEDTLS_PK_ECKEY.
TinyCrypt should be used as a replacement of legacy ECC. In particular,
there shouldn't be any use of identifiers from the legacy ECC module.
So far, there's the configuration option
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_EC_GRP_ID
that's relevant if MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_CURVE is set, and which in
this case must resolve to an identifier of type mbedtls_ecp_group_id
indicating which single curve to enable.
With the introduction of TinyCrypt, we must either change the type
of this option to mbedtls_uecc_group_id, or introduce a separate
compilation option.
In order to avoid type confusion, this commit follows tha latter
approach, introducing the configuration option
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_UECC_GRP_ID
that indicatesthe TinyCrypt group identifier of the single curve
to use (must be Secp256r1) if MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_CURVE
and MBEDTLS_USE_TINYCRYPT are set.

Usually, compilers are clever enough to pick the best inlining
strategy, but in this instance, it appears that compiling on ARMC6,
the compilers inlines xxx_prf_yyy() and xxx_calc_finished_yyy()
even though it really shouldn't. Forbid inlining through the use
of __attribute__((noinline)).
This saves a few bytes in configurations where only one hash
is enabled, and configurations allowing multiple hashes probably
don't care about code-size anyway.
Now function mbedtls_ssl_set_hostname is compile-time configurable
in config.h with define MBEDTLS_X509_REMOVE_HOSTNAME_VERIFICATION.
This affects to many x509 API's. See config.h for details.
tinyCrypt uses a global RNG without context parameter while Mbed TLS in its
default configuration uses RNG+CTX bound to the SSL configuration.
This commit restricts the use of tinyCrypt to configurations that use a
global RNG function with NULL context by setting MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_RNG in
the configuration. This allows to define a wrapper RNG to be used by
tinyCrypt which maps to this global hardcoded RNG.
Previously, ssl_ecrs_ske_start_processing was used to indicate that
the ServerKeyExchange has been fetched from the record layer, but
that parsing its ECDHE parameter component has been preempted by the
restartable ECP feature. On re-entry of ssl_parse_server_key_exchange()
in this state, the code would directly jump into the parsing routine.
However, the only non-reentrant code that's jumped over this way is
the record fetching routine mbedtls_ssl_parse_record(), which is now
made re-entrant by setting `ssl->keep_current_message = 1` in case of
pre-emption due to restartable ECC.
The ssl_ecrs_ske_start_processing state is therefore redundant and
can be removed, which is what this commit does.
The postprocessing code for the server-side incoming client key
exchange and the client-side outgoing client key exchange both
contain the same code-paths for building the premaster secret
depending on the chosen ciphersuite (e.g., for ECDHE-PSK,
concatenating the ECDHE secret with the chosen PSK).
This commit moves this common code to ssl_tls.c, allowing
client- and server-side to share it.
After and performing key generation operations,
the client-side outgoing ClientKeyExchange handling includes
code-paths to assembly the PreMasterSecret (PMS) from the
available keying material, the exact assembly procedure
depending on which ciphersuite is in use. E.g., in an
(EC)DHE-PSK ciphersuite, the (EC)DHE secret would be concatenated
with the PSK to form the PMS.
This assembly of the PMS logically can be done after the ClientKeyExchange
has been written and the respective keying material has been generated,
and this commit moves it to the new postprocessing function
ssl_client_key_exchange_postprocess().
Ideally, the PMS assembly could be done prior to writing the
ClientKeyExchange message, but the (EC)DHE API does currently
not allow splitting secret-generation and secret-export; as
long as that's the case, we to generation and exporting in the
message writing function, forcing PMS assembly to be done in
the postprocessing.
This commit adds declarations and dummy implementations for
the restructured outgoing client key exchange handling that
will replace the previous ssl_write_client_key_exchange().
The entry point for the CliKeyExchange handling that is called
from the handshake state machine is
`ssl_process_client_key_exchange()`,
splitting the processing into the following steps:
- Preparation
Compute the keying material to be sent.
* For (EC)DH: Pick parameters and compute PMS.
* For ECJPAKE: Run round 2
* For RSA: Encrypt PMS
- Writing: Prepare the writing of a new messae.
- Postprocessing: Update handstate state machine.
The subsequent commits will scatter the code from the previous
monolithic function ssl_write_client_key_exchange() among those
dedicated functions, commenting out each part of
ssl_write_client_key_exchange() that has already been dealt with.
This gradual progression is meant to ease reviewing. Once all
code has been moved and all changes explained,
ssl_write_client_key_exchange() will be removed.
Commit 16b1bd8932 "bn_mul.h: add ARM DSP optimized MULADDC code"
added some ARM DSP instructions that was assumed to always be available
when __ARM_FEATURE_DSP is defined to 1. Unfortunately it appears that
the ARMv5TE architecture (GCC flag -march=armv5te) supports the DSP
instructions, but only in Thumb mode and not in ARM mode, despite
defining __ARM_FEATURE_DSP in both cases.
This patch fixes the build issue by requiring at least ARMv6 in addition
to the DSP feature.
After the rewrite of incoming record processing to use the internal
SSL record structure mbedtls_record (which contains the data_offset
field to indicate where the IV resides), this field is no longer
necessary.
Note: This is an API break.
The function mbedtls_ssl_in_hdr_len() is supposed to return the length
of the record header of the current incoming record. With the advent
of the DTLS Connection ID, this length is only known at runtime and
hence so far needed to be derived from the internal in_iv pointer
pointing to the beginning of the payload of the current incooing
record.
By now, however, those uses of mbedtls_ssl_in_hdr_len() where the
presence of a CID would need to be detected have been removed
(specifically, ssl_parse_record_header() doesn't use it anymore
when checking that the current datagram is large enough to hold
the record header, including the CID), and it's sufficient to
statically return the default record header sizes of 5 / 13 Bytes
for TLS / DTLS.
This function is often called when there's already an error code to handle,
and one of the reasons to introduce the pending of alerts was to _not_ have
another potential error code to take care of. Reflect this by making `void`
the return type of `mbedtls_ssl_pend_fatal_alert()`.
The code wants timer callbacks to be set (checked in fetch_input()), and can't
easily check whether we're using nbio, so it seems easier to require the
callbacks to be always set rather than only with nbio as was previously done.
The number of meaning of the flags will be determined later, when handling the
relevant struct members. For now three bytes are reserved as an example, but
this number may change later.
Enforce restrictions indicated in the documentation.
This allows to make some simplifying assumptions (no need to worry about
saving IVs for CBC in TLS < 1.1, nor about saving handshake data) and
guarantees that all values marked as "forced" in the design document have the
intended values and can be skipped when serialising.
Some of the "forced" values are not checked because their value is a
consequence of other checks (for example, session_negotiated == NULL outside
handshakes). We do however check that session and transform are not NULL (even
if that's also a consequence of the initial handshake being over) as we're
going to dereference them and static analyzers may appreciate the info.
This commit introduces the option MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_HASH
which can be used to register a single supported signature hash
algorithm at compile time. It replaces the runtime configuration
API mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_hashes() which allows to register a _list_
of supported signature hash algorithms.
In contrast to other options used to hardcode configuration options,
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_HASH isn't a numeric option, but instead it's
only relevant if it's defined or not. To actually set the single
supported hash algorithm that should be supported, numeric options
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_HASH_TLS_ID
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_HASH_MD_ID
must both be defined and provide the TLS ID and the Mbed TLS internal
ID and the chosen hash algorithm, respectively.
This commit introduces the option MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_EC
which can be used to register a single supported elliptic curve
at compile time. It replaces the runtime configuration API
mbedtls_ssl_conf_curves() which allows to register a _list_
of supported elliptic curves.
In contrast to other options used to hardcode configuration options,
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_EC isn't a numeric option, but instead it's
only relevant if it's defined or not. To actually set the single
elliptic curve that should be supported, numeric options
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_EC_TLS_ID
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_EC_GRP_ID
must both be defined and provide the TLS ID and the Mbed TLS internal
ID and the chosen curve, respectively.
The fields
- mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params::max_major_ver,
- mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params::max_minor_ver
are used only for server-side RSA-based key exchanges
can be removed otherwise.
Reasons:
- If the transport type is fixed at compile-time,
mbedtls_ssl_read_version() and mbedtls_ssl_write_version()
are called with a compile-time determined `transport`
parameter, so the transport-type branch in their body
can be eliminated at compile-time.
- mbedtls_ssl_read_version() is called with addresses of
local variables, which so far need to be put on the stack
to be addressable. Inlining the call allows to read directly
into the registers holding these local variables.
This saves 60 bytes w.r.t. the measurement performed by
> ./scripts/baremetal.sh --rom --gcc
If the minor/major version is enforced at compile-time, the `major_ver`
and `minor_ver` fields in `mbedtls_ssl_context` are redundant and can
be removed.
This commit introduces the numeric compile-time constants
- MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_MIN_MINOR_VER
- MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_MAX_MINOR_VER
- MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_MIN_MAJOR_VER
- MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_MAX_MAJOR_VER
which, when defined, overwrite the runtime configurable fields
mbedtls_ssl_config::min_major_ver etc. in the SSL configuration.
As for the preceding case of the ExtendedMasterSecret configuration,
it also introduces and puts to use getter functions for these variables
which evaluate to either a field access or the macro value, maintaining
readability of the code.
The runtime configuration API mbedtls_ssl_conf_{min|max}_version()
is kept for now but has no effect if MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_XXX are set.
This is likely to be changed in a later commit but deliberately omitted
for now, in order to be able to study code-size benefits earlier in the
process.
This commit restructures ssl_ciphersuites.h and ssl_ciphersuites.c to
define all ciphersuite helper functions static inline in ssl_ciphersuites.h
if MBEDTLS_SSL_CONF_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is set, and to otherwise put their
definitions in ssl_ciphersuites.c.
If MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is enabled, the type
mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_handle_t
is logically a boolean (concretely realized as `unsigned char`),
containing the invalid handle and the unique valid handle, which
represents the single enabled ciphersuite.
The SSL session structure mbedtls_ssl_session contains an instance
of mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_handle_t which is guaranteed to be valid,
and which is hence redundant in any two-valued implementation of
mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_handle_t.
This commit replaces read-uses of
mbedtls_ssl_session::ciphersuite_info
by a getter functions which, and defines this getter function
either by just reading the field from the session structure
(in case MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is disabled), or by
returning the single valid ciphersuite handle (in case
MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is enabled) and removing the
field from mbedtls_ssl_session in this case.
If MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is enabled, it overwrites
the runtime configuration of supported ciphersuites, which
includes both the configuration API and the fields which are
used to store the configuration. Both are therefore no longer
needed and should be removed for the benefit of code-size,
memory usage, and API clarity (no accidental hiccup of runtime
vs. compile-time configuration possible).
The configuration API mbedtls_ssl_conf_ciphersuites() has
already been removed in case MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE,
and this commit removes the field
mbedtls_ssl_config::ciphersuite_list
which it updates.
If MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is enabled, the type
mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_handle_t
is logically a boolean (concretely realized as `unsigned char`),
containing the invalid handle and the unique valid handle, which
represents the single enabled ciphersuite.
The SSL handshake structure mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params contains
an instance of mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_handle_t which is guaranteed
to be valid, and which is hence redundant in any two-valued
implementation of mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_handle_t.
This commit replaces read-uses of
mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params::ciphersuite_info
by a getter functions which, and defines this getter function
either by just reading the field from the handshake structure
(in case MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is disabled), or by
returning the single valid ciphersuite handle (in case
MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is enabled) and removing the
field from mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params in this case.
This commit modifies the ClientHello writing routine ssl_write_client_hello
in ssl_cli.c to switch between
(a) listing all runtime configured ciphersuites
(in case MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is not defined)
(b) listing just the single hardcoded ciphersuite
(in case MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is defined)
The approach taken is to introduce a pair of helper macros
MBEDTLS_SSL_BEGIN_FOR_EACH_CIPHERSUITE( ssl, ver, info )
MBEDTLS_SSL_END_FOR_EACH_CIPHERSUITE
which when delimiting a block of code lead to that block of
code being run once for each ciphersuite that's enabled in the
context `ssl` and version `ver`, referenced through the (fresh)
`info` variable. Internally, this is implemented either through
a plain `for` loop traversing the runtime configured ciphersuite
list (if MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is disabled) or by just
hardcoding `info` to the single enabled ciphersuite (if
MBEDTLS_SSL_SINGLE_CIPHERSUITE is enabled).
These helper macros will prove useful whereever previous code
traversed the runtime configured ciphersuite list, but adaptations
of those occasions outside ClientHello writing are left for later
commits.
This commit is a step towards the goal of allowing to hardcode the choice
of a single ciphersuite at compile-time. The hoped for benefit of this is
that whereever a ciphersuite attribute is queried and checked against a
compile-time constant, the check can be recognized as either true or false
at compile-time, hence leading to a code-size reduction.
For this to work, the ciphersuite attribute getter functions
mbedtls_ssl_suite_get_xxx() will be modified to return something
the compiler can recognize as a compile-time constant. In particular,
in order to avoid relying on constant propagation abilities of the
compiler, these functions should ideally return constant symbols
(instead of, say, fields in a globally const structure instance).
This puts us in the following situation: On the one hand, there's the
array of ciphersuite information structures defining the attribute of
those ciphersuites the stack knows about. On the other hand, we need
direct access to those fields through constant symbols in the getter
functions.
In order to avoid any duplication of information, this commit exemplifies
how ciphersuites can be conveniently defined on the basis of macro
definitions, and how the corresponding instances of the ciphersuite
information structure can be auto-generated from this.
In the approach, to add support for a ciphersuite with official name
NAME (such as TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CCM_8), the following macro
constants need to be defined in ssl_ciphersuites.h:
MBEDTLS_SUITE__ NAME __ID
MBEDTLS_SUITE__ NAME __NAME
MBEDTLS_SUITE__ NAME __CIPHER
MBEDTLS_SUITE__ NAME __MAC
...
To make check-names.sh happy, one also needs a dummy macro
MBEDTLS_SUITE__ NAME()
These ciphersuite attribute values can then be queried via
MBEDTLS_SSL_SUITE_ID( NAME_MACRO )
...
where NAME_MACRO can be any macro expanding to a defined NAME.
Further, a convenience macro
MBEDTLS_SSL_SUITE_INFO( NAME_MACRO )
is provided that again takes a macro NAME_MACRO expanding to a
defined NAME, and itself expands to an instance of
mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_info_t using the macro attributes
defined for NAME. This macro is then used in ssl_ciphersuites.c
when defining the array of known ciphersuite information structures,
(a) without duplicating the information, and (b) with increased
readability, because there's only one line for each ciphersuite.
This commit introduces an internal zero-cost abstraction layer for
SSL ciphersuites: Instead of addressing ciphersuites via pointers
to instances of mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_t and accessing their fields
directly, this commit introduces an opaque type
mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_handle_t,
and getter functions
mbedtls_ssl_suite_get_xxx()
operating on ciphersuite handles.
The role of NULL is played by a new macro constant
MBEDTLS_SSL_CIPHERSUITE_INVALID_HANDLE
which results of functions returning handles can be checked against.
(For example, when doing a lookup of a ciphersuite from a peer-provided
ciphersuite ID in the per's Hello message).
The getter functions have the validity of the handle as a precondition
and are undefined if the handle is invalid.
So far, there's only one implementation of this abstraction layer, namely
mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_handle_t being mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_t const *
and
getter functions being field accesses.
In subsequent commits, however, the abstraction layer will be useful
to save code in the situation where only a single ciphersuite is enabled.
Previously, ssl.h included ssl_ciphersuites.h to have access to the
helper macros MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_XXX_ENABLED, and for no other
reason. This commit moves the definitions of these macros to ssl.h,
thereby removing the dependency of ssl.h on ssl_ciphersuites.h.
