[PATCH 0/8] KEYS: keyctl operations for asymmetric keys [ver #2]

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here's a set of patches that provides keyctl access for asymmetric keys,
including a query function, and functions to do encryption, decryption,
signature creation and signature verification.

I've added a PKCS#8 asymmetric key parser so that you can load an RSA private
key into the kernel.  Currently only DER-encoded and unencrypted PKCS#8 is
supported.  Encryption and verification can use a public key from an X.509
cert, but signing and decryption require a private key, though encryption and
verification can use that too.

Example usage:

	j=`openssl pkcs8 -in private_key.pem -topk8 -nocrypt -outform DER | \
	    keyctl padd asymmetric foo @s`
	echo -n abcdefghijklmnopqrst >/tmp/data
	keyctl pkey_encrypt $j /tmp/data enc=pkcs1 >/tmp/enc
	keyctl pkey_decrypt $j /tmp/enc enc=pkcs1 >/tmp/dec
	cmp /tmp/data /tmp/dec
	keyctl pkey_sign $j /tmp/data enc=pkcs1 hash=sha1 >/tmp/sig
	keyctl pkey_verify $j /tmp/data /tmp/sig enc=pkcs1 hash=sha1

Changes:

 (*) I've taken out the password parameters for the moment as there isn't
     yet a subtype that uses them.  I have, however, left space in the
     keyctl UAPI to add them back later.
