=head1 DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This documentation is primarily aimed at provider authors. See L<provider(7)>
 | 
						|
for further information.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The key exchange (OSSL_OP_KEYEXCH) operation enables providers to implement key
 | 
						|
exchange algorithms and make them available to applications via
 | 
						|
L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)> and
 | 
						|
other related functions).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All "functions" mentioned here are passed as function pointers between
 | 
						|
F<libcrypto> and the provider in B<OSSL_DISPATCH> arrays via
 | 
						|
B<OSSL_ALGORITHM> arrays that are returned by the provider's
 | 
						|
provider_query_operation() function
 | 
						|
(see L<provider-base(7)/Provider Functions>).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All these "functions" have a corresponding function type definition
 | 
						|
named B<OSSL_FUNC_{name}_fn>, and a helper function to retrieve the
 | 
						|
function pointer from an B<OSSL_DISPATCH> element named
 | 
						|
B<OSSL_FUNC_{name}>.
 | 
						|
For example, the "function" OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_newctx() has these:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 typedef void *(OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_newctx_fn)(void *provctx);
 | 
						|
 static ossl_inline OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_newctx_fn
 | 
						|
     OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_newctx(const OSSL_DISPATCH *opf);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
B<OSSL_DISPATCH> arrays are indexed by numbers that are provided as
 | 
						|
macros in L<openssl-core_dispatch.h(7)>, as follows:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_newctx                OSSL_FUNC_KEYEXCH_NEWCTX
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
A key exchange algorithm implementation may not implement all of these functions.
 | 
						|
In order to be a consistent set of functions a provider must implement
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_newctx, OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_freectx, OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_init and OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_derive.
 | 
						|
All other functions are optional.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A key exchange algorithm must also implement some mechanism for generating,
 | 
						|
loading or importing keys via the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation.
 | 
						|
See L<provider-keymgmt(7)> for further details.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Context Management Functions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_newctx() should create and return a pointer to a provider side
 | 
						|
structure for holding context information during a key exchange operation.
 | 
						|
A pointer to this context will be passed back in a number of the other key
 | 
						|
exchange operation function calls.
 | 
						|
The parameter I<provctx> is the provider context generated during provider
 | 
						|
initialisation (see L<provider(7)>).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_freectx() is passed a pointer to the provider side key exchange
 | 
						|
context in the I<ctx> parameter.
 | 
						|
This function should free any resources associated with that context.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_dupctx() should duplicate the provider side key exchange context in
 | 
						|
the I<ctx> parameter and return the duplicate copy.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Shared Secret Derivation Functions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_init() initialises a key exchange operation given a provider side key
 | 
						|
exchange context in the I<ctx> parameter, and a pointer to a provider key object
 | 
						|
in the I<provkey> parameter.
 | 
						|
The I<params>, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
 | 
						|
using OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_set_params().
 | 
						|
The key object should have been previously
 | 
						|
generated, loaded or imported into the provider using the key management
 | 
						|
(OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see provider-keymgmt(7)>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_set_peer() is called to supply the peer's public key (in the
 | 
						|
I<provkey> parameter) to be used when deriving the shared secret.
 | 
						|
It is also passed a previously initialised key exchange context in the I<ctx>
 | 
						|
parameter.
 | 
						|
The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
 | 
						|
the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see
 | 
						|
provider-keymgmt(7)>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_derive() performs the actual key exchange itself by deriving a shared
 | 
						|
secret.
 | 
						|
A previously initialised key exchange context is passed in the I<ctx>
 | 
						|
parameter.
 | 
						|
The derived secret should be written to the location I<secret> which should not
 | 
						|
exceed I<outlen> bytes.
 | 
						|
The length of the shared secret should be written to I<*secretlen>.
 | 
						|
If I<secret> is NULL then the maximum length of the shared secret should be
 | 
						|
written to I<*secretlen>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Key Exchange Parameters Functions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_set_ctx_params() sets key exchange parameters associated with the
 | 
						|
given provider side key exchange context I<ctx> to I<params>,
 | 
						|
see L</Common Key Exchange parameters>.
 | 
						|
Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set.
 | 
						|
Passing NULL for I<params> should return true.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_get_ctx_params() gets key exchange parameters associated with the
 | 
						|
given provider side key exchange context I<ctx> into I<params>,
 | 
						|
see L</Common Key Exchange parameters>.
 | 
						|
Passing NULL for I<params> should return true.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_settable_ctx_params() yields a constant B<OSSL_PARAM> array that
 | 
						|
describes the settable parameters, i.e. parameters that can be used with
 | 
						|
OP_signature_set_ctx_params().
 | 
						|
If OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_settable_ctx_params() is present, OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_set_ctx_params() must
 | 
						|
also be present, and vice versa.
 | 
						|
Similarly, OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_gettable_ctx_params() yields a constant B<OSSL_PARAM>
 | 
						|
array that describes the gettable parameters, i.e. parameters that can be
 | 
						|
handled by OP_signature_get_ctx_params().
 | 
						|
If OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_gettable_ctx_params() is present, OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_get_ctx_params() must
 | 
						|
also be present, and vice versa.
 | 
						|
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> for the use of B<OSSL_PARAM> as parameter descriptor.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Notice that not all settable parameters are also gettable, and vice versa.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Common Key Exchange parameters
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> for further details on the parameters structure used by
 | 
						|
the OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_set_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_get_ctx_params() functions.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Common parameters currently recognised by built-in key exchange algorithms are
 | 
						|
as follows.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=over 4
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item "pad" (B<OSSL_EXCHANGE_PARAM_PAD>) <unsigned integer>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sets the padding mode for the associated key exchange ctx.
 | 
						|
Setting a value of 1 will turn padding on.
 | 
						|
Setting a value of 0 will turn padding off.
 | 
						|
If padding is off then the derived shared secret may be smaller than the largest
 | 
						|
possible secret size.
 | 
						|
If padding is on then the derived shared secret will have its first bytes filled
 | 
						|
with 0s where necessary to make the shared secret the same size as the largest
 | 
						|
possible secret size.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=back
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_newctx() and OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_dupctx() should return the newly created
 | 
						|
provider side key exchange context, or NULL on failure.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_init(), OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_set_peer(), OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_derive(),
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_set_params(), and OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_get_params() should return 1 for success
 | 
						|
or 0 on error.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_settable_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_keyexch_gettable_ctx_params() should
 | 
						|
always return a constant B<OSSL_PARAM> array.
