Renamed some values in core_names i.e Some DH specific names were changed to use DH instead of FFC. Added some strings values related to RSA keys. Moved set_params related docs out of EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl.pod into its own file. Updated Keyexchange and signature code and docs. Moved some common DSA/DH docs into a shared EVP_PKEY-FFC.pod. Moved Ed25519.pod into EVP_SIGNATURE-ED25519.pod and reworked it. Added some usage examples. As a result of the usage examples the following change was also made: ec allows OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_USE_COFACTOR_ECDH as a settable gen parameter.

|

EVP_SIGNATURE-ED25519,
|

EVP_SIGNATURE-ED448,
|
|
Ed25519,
|
|
Ed448
|
|
- EVP_PKEY Ed25519 and Ed448 support
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<Ed25519> and B<Ed448> EVP_PKEY implementation supports key generation,
|
|
one-shot digest sign and digest verify using PureEdDSA and B<Ed25519> or B<Ed448>
|
|
(see RFC8032). It has associated private and public key formats compatible with
|
|
RFC 8410.
|
|
|
|
No additional parameters can be set during one-shot signing or verification.
|
|
In particular, because PureEdDSA is used, a digest must B<NOT> be specified when
|
|
signing or verifying.
|
|
See L<EVP_PKEY-X25519(7)> for information related to B<X25519> and B<X448> keys.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
The PureEdDSA algorithm does not support the streaming mechanism
|
|
of other signature algorithms using, for example, EVP_DigestUpdate().
|
|
The message to sign or verify must be passed using the one-shot
|
|
EVP_DigestSign() and EVP_DigestVerify() functions.
|
|
|
|
When calling EVP_DigestSignInit() or EVP_DigestVerifyInit(), the
|
|
digest I<type> parameter B<MUST> be set to NULL.
|
|
|
|
Applications wishing to sign certificates (or other structures such as
|
|
CRLs or certificate requests) using Ed25519 or Ed448 can either use X509_sign()
|
|
or X509_sign_ctx() in the usual way.
|
|
|
|
Ed25519 or Ed448 private keys can be set directly using
|
|
L<EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key(3)> or loaded from a PKCS#8 private key file
|
|
using L<PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey(3)> (or similar function). Completely new keys
|
|
can also be generated (see the example below). Setting a private key also sets
|
|
the associated public key.
|
|
|
|
Ed25519 or Ed448 public keys can be set directly using
|
|
L<EVP_PKEY_new_raw_public_key(3)> or loaded from a SubjectPublicKeyInfo
|
|
structure in a PEM file using L<PEM_read_bio_PUBKEY(3)> (or similar function).
|
|
|
|
Ed25519 and Ed448 can be tested with the L<openssl-speed(1)> application
|
|
since version 1.1.1.
|
|
Valid algorithm names are B<ed25519>, B<ed448> and B<eddsa>. If B<eddsa> is
|
|
specified, then both Ed25519 and Ed448 are benchmarked.
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
To sign a message using a ED25519 or ED448 key:
|
|
|
|
void do_sign(EVP_PKEY *ed_key, unsigned char *msg, size_t msg_len)
|
|
{
|
|
size_t sig_len;
|
|
unsigned char *sig = NULL;
|
|
EVP_MD_CTX *md_ctx = EVP_MD_CTX_new();
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestSignInit(md_ctx, NULL, NULL, NULL, ed_key);
|
|
/* Calculate the requires size for the signature by passing a NULL buffer */
|
|
EVP_DigestSign(md_ctx, NULL, &sig_len, msg, msg_len);
|
|
sig = OPENSSL_zalloc(sig_len);
|
|
|
|
EVP_DigestSign(md_ctx, sig, &sig_len, msg, msg_len);
|
|
...
|
|
OPENSSL_free(sig);
|
|
EVP_MD_CTX_free(md_ctx);
|
|
}
