crypto: kpp - Key-agreement Protocol Primitives API (KPP) Add key-agreement protocol primitives (kpp) API which allows to implement primitives required by protocols such as DH and ECDH. The API is composed mainly by the following functions * set_secret() - It allows the user to set his secret, also referred to as his private key, along with the parameters known to both parties involved in the key-agreement session. * generate_public_key() - It generates the public key to be sent to the other counterpart involved in the key-agreement session. The function has to be called after set_params() and set_secret() * generate_secret() - It generates the shared secret for the session Other functions such as init() and exit() are provided for allowing cryptographic hardware to be inizialized properly before use Signed-off-by: Salvatore Benedetto <salvatore.benedetto@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> 2016-06-22 17:49:13 +01:00
