review, proofing, and bug-fixing by Thomas Klausner (wiz): 1. add hifn(40 and ubsec(4) to share/man/man4/Makefile and the distrib set lists. 2. Restore commented-out cross-references to hifn(40 and ubsec(4) in crypto(4). No change made to hifn.4 or ubsec.4; commit forced for cross-reference and for pullup-request purposes.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver gives user-mode applications access to hardware-accelerated
|
|
cryptographic transforms, as implemented by the
|
|
.Xr opencrypto 9
|
|
in-kernel interface.
|
|
The
|
|
.Pa /dev/crypto
|
|
special device provides an
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
based interface.
|
|
User-mode applications should open the special device,
|
|
then issue
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
calls on the descriptor.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
device provides two distinct modes of operation: one mode for
|
|
symmetric-keyed cryptographic requests, and a second mode for
|
|
both asymmetric-key (public-key/private-key) requests, and for
|
|
modular exponentiation (for Diffie-Hellman key exchange).
|
|
The two modes are described separately below.
|
|
.Sh SYMMETRIC-KEY OPERATION
|
|
The symmetric-key operation mode provides a context-based API
|
|
to traditional symmetric-key encryption (or privacy) algorithms,
|
|
or to keyed and unkeyed one-way hash (HMAC and MAC) algorithms.
|
|
The symmetric-key mode also permits fused operation,
|
|
where the hardware performs both a privacy algorithm and an integrity-check
|
|
algorithm in a single pass over the data: either a fused
|
|
encrypt/HMAC-generate operation, or a fused HMAC-verify/decrypt operation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To use symmetric mode, you must first create a session specifying
|
|
the algorithm(s) and key(s) to use; then issue encrypt or decrypt
|
|
requests against the session.
|
|
.Ss Symmetric-key privacy algorithms
|
|
Contingent upon device drivers for installed cryptographic hardware
|
|
registering with
|
|
.Xr opencrypto 9 ,
|
|
as providers of a given algorithm, some or all of the following
|
|
symmetric-key privacy algorithms may be available:

.Ss Integrity-check operations
|
|
Contingent upon hardware support, some or all of the following
|
|
keyed one-way hash algorithms may be available:
|
|

|
|
The
|
|
.Em CRYPTO_MD5
|
|
and

|
.Em CRYPTO_SHA1
|
|
algorithms are actually unkeyed, but should be requested
|
|
as symmetric-key hash algorithms with a zero-length key.

.Ss IOCTL Request Descriptions
|
|
.\"
|
|
.Bl -tag -width CIOCFKEY
|
|
.\"
|
|
.It Dv CRIOCGET Fa int *fd
|
|
Clone the fd argument to
|
|
.Xr ioctl 4 ,
|
|
yielding a new file descriptor which can be used to create
|
|
crypto sessions and request crypto operations.
|
|
.\"
|
|
.It Dv CRIOCGSESSION Fa struct session_op *sessp
|
|
Persistently bind a file descriptor returned by a previous
|
|
.Dv CRIOCGET
|
|
to a session: that is, to the chosen privacy algorithm, integrity
|
|
algorithm, and keys specified in
|
|
.Fa sessp .
|
|
The special value 0 for either privacy or integrity
|
|
is reserved to indicate that the indicated operation (privacy or integrity)
|
|
is not desired for this session.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For non-zero symmetric-key privacy algorithms, the privacy algorithm
|
|
must be specified in
|
|
.Fa sess-\*[Gt]cipher ,
|
|
the key length in
|
|
.Fa sessp-\*[Gt]keylen ,
|
|
and the key value in the octets addressed by

|
.Fa sessp-\*[Gt]key .

.Pp
|
|
For keyed one-way hash algorithms, the one-way hash must be specified
|
|
in
|
|
.Fa sessp-\*[Gt]mac ,

|
the key length in
|
|
.Fa sessp-\*[Gt]mackey ,

.Fa sessp-\*[Gt]mackeylen .
|
|
.\"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Support for a specific combination of fused privacy and
|
|
integrity-check algorithms depends on whether the underlying
|
|
hardware supports that combination.
|
|
Not all combinations are supported
|
|
by all hardware, even if the hardware supports each operation as a
|
|
stand-alone non-fused operation.
|
|
.It Dv CIOCCRYPT Fa struct crpyto_op *cr_op
|
|
Request a symmetric-key (or unkeyed hash) operation.
|
|

|
must have been bound to a valid session.
|
|
To encrypt, set
|
|
.Fa cr_op-\*[Gt]op

|
|
To decrypt, set
|
|
.Fa cr_op-\*[Gt]op
|
|
to
|
|
.Dv COP_DECRYPT .
|
|
The field
|
|
.Fa cr_op-\*[Gt]len

|
|
(public-key/private-key; or key-exchange subroutine) operations may

|
also be available:

Returns a bitmask of supported asymmetric-key operations.
|
|
Each of the above-listed asymmetric operations is present
|

if and only if the bit position numbered by the code for that operation
|

is set.

For example,

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver is derived from a version which appeared in
|
|
.Fx 4.8 ,
|
|
which in turn is based on code which appeared in
|
|
.Ox 3.2 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
Error checking and reporting is weak.
|
|
The values specified for symmetric-key key sizes to
|
|
.Dv CRIOCGSESSION
|
|
must exactly match the values expected by
|
|
.XR opencrypto 9 .
|
|
The output buffer and MAC buffers supplied to
|
|
.Dv CRIOCRYPT
|
|
must follow whether privacy or integrity algorithms were specified for
|
|
session: if you request a
|
|
.No non- Ns Dv NULL
|
|
algorithm, you must supply a suitably-sized buffer.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The scheme for passing arguments for asymmetric requests is Baroque.
