Noteworthy changes in version 1.5.0 (2011-06-29)
------------------------------------------------
* New function gcry_kdf_derive implementing OpenPGP S2K algorithms
and PBKDF2.
* Support for WindowsCE.
* Support for ECDH.
* Support for OAEP and PSS methods as described by RFC-3447.
* Fixed PKCS v1.5 code to always return the leading zero.
* New format specifiers "%M" and "%u" for gcry_sexp_build.
* Support opaque MPIs with "%m" and "%M" in gcry_sexp_build.

* Uses the Intel AES-NI instructions if available.
* The use of the deprecated Alternative Public Key Interface
(gcry_ac_*) will now print compile time warnings.
* The module register subsystem has been deprecated. This subsystem
is not flexible enough and would always require ABI changes to
extend the internal interfaces. It will eventually be removed.
Please contact us on the gcrypt-devel mailing list to discuss
whether you really need this feature or how it can be replaced by
an internal plugin mechanism.
* CTR mode may now be used with data chunks of arbitrary length.
* Changes also done in 1.4.6 (2010-07-13):

Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.4 (2009-01-22)
------------------------------------------------
* Publish GCRY_MODULE_ID_USER and GCRY_MODULE_ID_USER_LAST constants.
This functionality has been in Libgcrypt since 1.3.0.
* MD5 may now be used in non-enforced fips mode.
* Fixed HMAC for SHA-384 and SHA-512 with keys longer than 64 bytes.
* In fips mode, RSA keys are now generated using the X9.31 algorithm
and DSA keys using the FIPS 186-2 algorithm.
* The transient-key flag is now also supported for DSA key
generation. DSA domain parameters may be given as well.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.3 (2008-09-18)
------------------------------------------------
* Try to auto-initialize Libgcrypt to minimize the effect of
applications not doing that correctly. This is not a perfect
solution but given that many applicationion would totally fail
without such a hack, we try to help at least with the most common
cases. Folks, please read the manual to learn how to properly
initialize Libgcrypt!
* Auto-initialize the secure memory to 32k instead of aborting the
process.
* Log fatal errors via syslog.
* Changed the name and the semantics of the fips mode config file.
* Add convenience macro gcry_fips_mode_active.
* More self-tests.
* Documentation cleanups.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.2 (2008-09-08)
------------------------------------------------
* The long missing gcry_mpi_lshift function has been added.
* RSA key generation now supports a "transient-key" flag.
* The keygrip computation for ECDSA has been implemented thus ECDSA
is now fully supported.
* A few macros have been replaced by functions for better type
checking.
* The thread initialization structure now carries version
information.
* The manual describes more clearly how to initialize Libgcrypt.
* The library may now be switched into a FIPS mode.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.1 (2008-04-25)
------------------------------------------------
* Fixed a bug introduced by 1.3.1 which led to the comsumption of far
too much entropy for the intial seeding.
* Improved AES performance for CFB and CBC modes.
* Removed build problems for the Padlock support.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.0 (2007-12-10)
------------------------------------------------
* New configure option --disable-padlock-support which is mostly
useful in case of build problems.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.2 (2007-12-03)
------------------------------------------------
* The visibility attribute is now used if supported by the toolchain.
* The ACE engine of VIA processors is now used for AES-128.
* The ASN.1 DER template for SHA-224 has been fixed.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.1 (2007-10-26)
------------------------------------------------
* The entire library is now under the LGPL. The helper programs and
the manual are under the GPL. Kudos to Peter Gutmann for giving
permissions to relicense the rndw32 and rndunix modules.
* The Camellia cipher is now under the LGPL and included by default.
* Fixed a bug in the detection of symbol prefixes which inhibited the
build of optimzied assembler code on certain systems.
* Updated the entropy gatherer for W32.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.0 (2007-05-04)
------------------------------------------------
* Changed the way the RNG gets initialized. This allows to keep it
uninitialized as long as no random numbers are used. To override
this, the new macro gcry_fast_random_poll may be used. It is in
general a good idea to spread this macro into the application code
to make sure that these polls happen often enough.
* Made the RNG immune against fork without exec.
* Reading and writing the random seed file is now protected by a
fcntl style file lock on systems that provide this function.
* Support for SHA-224 and HMAC using SHA-384 and SHA-512.
* Support for the SEED cipher.
* Support for the Camellia cipher. Note that Camellia is disabled by
default, and that enabling it changes the license of libgcrypt from
LGPL to GPL.
* Support for OFB encryption mode.
* gcry_mpi_rshift does not anymore truncate the shift count.
* Reserved algorithm ranges for use by applications.
* Support for DSA2.
* The new function gcry_md_debug should be used instead of the
gcry_md_start_debug and gcry_md_stop_debug macros.
* New configure option --enable-random-daemon to support a system
wide random daemon. The daemon code is experimental and not yet
very well working. It will eventually allow to keep a global
random pool for the sake of short living processes.
* Non executable stack support is now used by default on systems
supporting it.
* Support for Microsoft Windows.
* Assembler support for the AMD64 architecture.
* New configure option --enable-mpi-path for optimized builds.
* Experimental support for ECDSA; should only be used for testing.
* New control code GCRYCTL_PRINT_CONFIG to print the build
configuration.
* Minor changes to some function declarations. Buffer arguments are
now typed as void pointer. This should not affect any compilation.
Fixed two bugs in return values and clarified documentation.

------------------------------------------------
* First stable release.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.94 (2004-03-29)
-------------------------------------------------
* The support for multi-threaded users goes into its third
incarnation. We removed compile time support for thread libraries.
To support the thread library of your choice, you have to set up
callback handlers at initialization time. New data structures, a
new control command, and default initializers are provided for this
purpose.

or libgcrypt-pthread is supported.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.92 (2004-02-20)
-------------------------------------------------
* Minor bug fixes.
* Included a limited implementation of RFC2268.
* Changed API of the gcry_ac_ functions. Only a very few programs
should be affected by this.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gcry_prime_generate NEW
gcry_prime_check NEW
Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.42 (2003-07-31)
-------------------------------------------------
* Major API cleanup. Applications need to be converted to the new
API. See README.apichanges for hints on how to do that. Backward
compatibility is provided where it was possible without too much
effort and did not collide with the overall sanitization effort.
However, this is only for ease of transition. NO DEPRECATED
FUNCTION OR DATA TYPE IS CONSIDERED A PART OF THE API OR ABI AND
WILL BE DROPPED IN THE FUTURE WITHOUT CHANGING THE SONAME OF THE
LIBRARY.
* If gcrypt.h is included in sources compiled by GCC 3.1 or later,
deprecated attributes will warn about use of obsolete functions and
type definitions. You can suppress these warnings by passing
-Wno-deprecated-declarations to the gcc command.
* gcry_check_version must be called from now on to initialize the
library, it is not longer optional.
* Removed `libgcrypt errno' concept.
* Libgcrypt depends on libgpg-error, a library that provides error
codes and according functions for all GnuPG components. Functions
that used to return error codes asa `int' have been changed to
return a code of type `gcry_error_t'. All GCRYERR_* error symbols
have been removed, since they are now contained in libgpg-error
(GPG_ERR_*). All functions and types in libgpg-error have also been
wrapped in Libgcrypt. The new types are gcry_err_code_t and
gcry_err_source_t. The new functions are gcry_err_code,
gcry_err_source, gcry_error, gcry_err_make, gcry_error_from_errno,
gcry_err_make_from_errno, gcry_err_code_from_errno,
gcry_err_code_to_errno, gcry_strsource.
* New function gcry_mpi_dump to help in debugging.
* Added alternative interface for asymmetric cryptography.
* CRC-32, CRC-32 a'la RFC 1510, CRC-24 a'la RFC 2440 are now
supported.
* SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512 are now supported.
* 128 bit Twofish is now supported.
* The random module won't print the "not enough random bytes
available" anymore. A new progress status is issued instead.
* CBC-MAC for block ciphers is now supported, by using a
GCRY_CIPHER_CBC_MAC cipher flag.
* CTR mode for block ciphers is now supported.
* The public RSA exponent can now be specified in key generation.
* RSA blinding is now supported and is used automatically for RSA
decryption. It can be explicitely disabled by using the
`no-blinding' symbol in the `flags' S-Expression or by using the
GCRY_AC_FLAG_DATA_NO_BLINDING flag when using the ac interface.
* gcry_sexp_canon_len does not use a `historically encoded' error
code anymore.
* Interface changes relative to the 1.1.12 release:

@section Getting Started
This manual documents the Libgcrypt library application programming
interface (API). All functions and data types provided by the library
are explained.
@noindent
The reader is assumed to possess basic knowledge about applied
cryptography.
This manual can be used in several ways. If read from the beginning
to the end, it gives a good introduction into the library and how it
can be used in an application. Forward references are included where
necessary. Later on, the manual can be used as a reference manual to
get just the information needed about any particular interface of the
library. Experienced programmers might want to start looking at the
examples at the end of the manual, and then only read up those parts
of the interface which are unclear.

@node Overview
@section Overview
@noindent
The Libgcrypt library is fully thread-safe, where it makes
sense to be thread-safe. Not thread-safe are some cryptographic
functions that modify a certain context stored in handles. If the
user really intents to use such functions from different threads on
the same handle, he has to take care of the serialization of such
functions himself. If not described otherwise, every function is
thread-safe.
Libgcrypt depends on the library `libgpg-error', which
contains common error handling related code for GnuPG components.

@chapter Preparation
To use Libgcrypt, you have to perform some changes to your
sources and the build system. The necessary changes are small and
explained in the following sections. At the end of this chapter, it
is described how the library is initialized, and how the requirements
of the library are verified.

@end menu
@node Header
@section Header
All interfaces (data types and functions) of the library are defined
in the header file @file{gcrypt.h}. You must include this in all source
files using the library, either directly or through some other header
file, like this:
@example
#include <gcrypt.h>
@end example
The name space of Libgcrypt is @code{gcry_*} for function
and type names and @code{GCRY*} for other symbols. In addition the
same name prefixes with one prepended underscore are reserved for
internal use and should never be used by an application. Note that
Libgcrypt uses libgpg-error, which uses @code{gpg_*} as
name space for function and type names and @code{GPG_*} for other
symbols, including all the error codes.
@noindent
Certain parts of gcrypt.h may be excluded by defining these macros:
@table @code
@item GCRYPT_NO_MPI_MACROS
Do not define the shorthand macros @code{mpi_*} for @code{gcry_mpi_*}.
@item GCRYPT_NO_DEPRECATED
Do not include definitions for deprecated features. This is useful to
make sure that no deprecated features are used.
@end table
@node Building sources
@section Building sources
If you want to compile a source file including the `gcrypt.h' header
file, you must make sure that the compiler can find it in the
directory hierarchy. This is accomplished by adding the path to the
directory in which the header file is located to the compilers include
file search path (via the @option{-I} option).
However, the path to the include file is determined at the time the
source is configured. To solve this problem, Libgcrypt ships with a small
helper program @command{libgcrypt-config} that knows the path to the
include file and other configuration options. The options that need
to be added to the compiler invocation at compile time are output by
the @option{--cflags} option to @command{libgcrypt-config}. The following
example shows how it can be used at the command line:
@example
gcc -c foo.c `libgcrypt-config --cflags`
@end example
Adding the output of @samp{libgcrypt-config --cflags} to the compilers
command line will ensure that the compiler can find the Libgcrypt header
file.
A similar problem occurs when linking the program with the library.
Again, the compiler has to find the library files. For this to work,
the path to the library files has to be added to the library search path
(via the @option{-L} option). For this, the option @option{--libs} to
@command{libgcrypt-config} can be used. For convenience, this option
also outputs all other options that are required to link the program
with the Libgcrypt libraries (in particular, the @samp{-lgcrypt}
option). The example shows how to link @file{foo.o} with the Libgcrypt
library to a program @command{foo}.
@example
gcc -o foo foo.o `libgcrypt-config --libs`
@end example
Of course you can also combine both examples to a single command by
specifying both options to @command{libgcrypt-config}:
@example
gcc -o foo foo.c `libgcrypt-config --cflags --libs`
@end example
@node Building sources using Automake
@section Building sources using Automake
It is much easier if you use GNU Automake instead of writing your own
Makefiles. If you do that, you do not have to worry about finding and
invoking the @command{libgcrypt-config} script at all.
Libgcrypt provides an extension to Automake that does all
the work for you.
@c A simple macro for optional variables.
@macro ovar{varname}
@r{[}@var{\varname\}@r{]}
@end macro
@defmac AM_PATH_LIBGCRYPT (@ovar{minimum-version}, @ovar{action-if-found}, @ovar{action-if-not-found})
Check whether Libgcrypt (at least version
@var{minimum-version}, if given) exists on the host system. If it is
found, execute @var{action-if-found}, otherwise do
@var{action-if-not-found}, if given.
Additionally, the function defines @code{LIBGCRYPT_CFLAGS} to the
flags needed for compilation of the program to find the
@file{gcrypt.h} header file, and @code{LIBGCRYPT_LIBS} to the linker
flags needed to link the program to the Libgcrypt library.
@end defmac
You can use the defined Autoconf variables like this in your
@file{Makefile.am}:
@example
AM_CPPFLAGS = $(LIBGCRYPT_CFLAGS)
LDADD = $(LIBGCRYPT_LIBS)
@end example
@node Initializing the library
@section Initializing the library
Before the library can be used, it must initialize itself. This is
achieved by invoking the function @code{gcry_check_version} described
below.
Also, it is often desirable to check that the version of
Libgcrypt used is indeed one which fits all requirements.
Even with binary compatibility, new features may have been introduced,
but due to problem with the dynamic linker an old version may actually
be used. So you may want to check that the version is okay right
after program startup.
@deftypefun {const char *} gcry_check_version (const char *@var{req_version})
The function @code{gcry_check_version} initializes some subsystems used
by Libgcrypt and must be invoked before any other function in the
library, with the exception of the @code{GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS} command
(called via the @code{gcry_control} function).
@xref{Multi-Threading}.
Furthermore, this function returns the version number of the library.
It can also verify that the version number is higher than a certain
required version number @var{req_version}, if this value is not a null
pointer.
@end deftypefun
Libgcrypt uses a concept known as secure memory, which is a region of
memory set aside for storing sensitive data. Because such memory is a
scarce resource, it needs to be setup in advanced to a fixed size.
Further, most operating systems have special requirements on how that
secure memory can be used. For example, it might be required to install
an application as ``setuid(root)'' to allow allocating such memory.
Libgcrypt requires a sequence of initialization steps to make sure that
this works correctly. The following examples show the necessary steps.
If you don't have a need for secure memory, for example if your
application does not use secret keys or other confidential data or it
runs in a controlled environment where key material floating around in
memory is not a problem, you should initialize Libgcrypt this way:
@example
/* Version check should be the very first call because it
makes sure that important subsystems are intialized. */
if (!gcry_check_version (GCRYPT_VERSION))
@{
fputs ("libgcrypt version mismatch\n", stderr);
exit (2);
@}
/* Disable secure memory. */
gcry_control (GCRYCTL_DISABLE_SECMEM, 0);
/* ... If required, other initialization goes here. */
/* Tell Libgcrypt that initialization has completed. */
gcry_control (GCRYCTL_INITIALIZATION_FINISHED, 0);
@end example
If you have to protect your keys or other information in memory against
being swapped out to disk and to enable an automatic overwrite of used
and freed memory, you need to initialize Libgcrypt this way:
@example
/* Version check should be the very first call because it
makes sure that important subsystems are intialized. */
if (!gcry_check_version (GCRYPT_VERSION))
@{
fputs ("libgcrypt version mismatch\n", stderr);
exit (2);
@}
@anchor{sample-use-suspend-secmem}
/* We don't want to see any warnings, e.g. because we have not yet
parsed program options which might be used to suppress such
warnings. */
gcry_control (GCRYCTL_SUSPEND_SECMEM_WARN);
/* ... If required, other initialization goes here. Note that the
process might still be running with increased privileges and that
the secure memory has not been intialized. */
/* Allocate a pool of 16k secure memory. This make the secure memory
available and also drops privileges where needed. */
gcry_control (GCRYCTL_INIT_SECMEM, 16384, 0);
@anchor{sample-use-resume-secmem}
/* It is now okay to let Libgcrypt complain when there was/is
a problem with the secure memory. */
gcry_control (GCRYCTL_RESUME_SECMEM_WARN);
/* ... If required, other initialization goes here. */
/* Tell Libgcrypt that initialization has completed. */
gcry_control (GCRYCTL_INITIALIZATION_FINISHED, 0);
@end example
It is important that these initialization steps are not done by a
library but by the actual application. A library using Libgcrypt might
want to check for finished initialization using:
@example
if (!gcry_control (GCRYCTL_INITIALIZATION_FINISHED_P))
@{
fputs ("libgcrypt has not been initialized\n", stderr);
abort ();
@}
@end example
Instead of terminating the process, the library may instead print a
warning and try to initialize Libgcrypt itself. See also the section on
multi-threading below for more pitfalls.
@node Multi-Threading
@section Multi-Threading
As mentioned earlier, the Libgcrypt library is
thread-safe if you adhere to the following requirements:
@itemize @bullet
@item
If your application is multi-threaded, you must set the thread support
callbacks with the @code{GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS} command
@strong{before} any other function in the library.
This is easy enough if you are indeed writing an application using
Libgcrypt. It is rather problematic if you are writing a library
instead. Here are some tips what to do if you are writing a library:
If your library requires a certain thread package, just initialize
Libgcrypt to use this thread package. If your library supports multiple
thread packages, but needs to be configured, you will have to
implement a way to determine which thread package the application
wants to use with your library anyway. Then configure Libgcrypt to use
this thread package.
If your library is fully reentrant without any special support by a
thread package, then you are lucky indeed. Unfortunately, this does
not relieve you from doing either of the two above, or use a third
option. The third option is to let the application initialize Libgcrypt
for you. Then you are not using Libgcrypt transparently, though.
As if this was not difficult enough, a conflict may arise if two
libraries try to initialize Libgcrypt independently of each others, and
both such libraries are then linked into the same application. To
make it a bit simpler for you, this will probably work, but only if
both libraries have the same requirement for the thread package. This
is currently only supported for the non-threaded case, GNU Pth and
pthread.
If you use pthread and your applications forks and does not directly
call exec (even calling stdio functions), all kind of problems may
occur. Future versions of Libgcrypt will try to cleanup using
pthread_atfork but even that may lead to problems. This is a common
problem with almost all applications using pthread and fork.
Note that future versions of Libgcrypt will drop this flexible thread
support and instead only support the platforms standard thread
implementation.
@item
The function @code{gcry_check_version} must be called before any other
function in the library, except the @code{GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS}
command (called via the @code{gcry_control} function), because it
initializes the thread support subsystem in Libgcrypt. To
achieve this in multi-threaded programs, you must synchronize the
memory with respect to other threads that also want to use
Libgcrypt. For this, it is sufficient to call
@code{gcry_check_version} before creating the other threads using
Libgcrypt@footnote{At least this is true for POSIX threads,
as @code{pthread_create} is a function that synchronizes memory with
respects to other threads. There are many functions which have this
property, a complete list can be found in POSIX, IEEE Std 1003.1-2003,
Base Definitions, Issue 6, in the definition of the term ``Memory
Synchronization''. For other thread packages, more relaxed or more
strict rules may apply.}.
@item
Just like the function @code{gpg_strerror}, the function
@code{gcry_strerror} is not thread safe. You have to use
@code{gpg_strerror_r} instead.
@end itemize
Libgcrypt contains convenient macros, which define the
necessary thread callbacks for PThread and for GNU Pth:
@table @code
@item GCRY_THREAD_OPTION_PTH_IMPL
This macro defines the following (static) symbols:
@code{gcry_pth_init}, @code{gcry_pth_mutex_init},
@code{gcry_pth_mutex_destroy}, @code{gcry_pth_mutex_lock},
@code{gcry_pth_mutex_unlock}, @code{gcry_pth_read},
@code{gcry_pth_write}, @code{gcry_pth_select},
@code{gcry_pth_waitpid}, @code{gcry_pth_accept},
@code{gcry_pth_connect}, @code{gcry_threads_pth}.
After including this macro, @code{gcry_control()} shall be used with a
command of @code{GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS} in order to register the
thread callback structure named ``gcry_threads_pth''. Example:
@smallexample
ret = gcry_control (GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS, &gcry_threads_pth);
@end smallexample
@item GCRY_THREAD_OPTION_PTHREAD_IMPL
This macro defines the following (static) symbols:
@code{gcry_pthread_mutex_init}, @code{gcry_pthread_mutex_destroy},
@code{gcry_pthread_mutex_lock}, @code{gcry_pthread_mutex_unlock},
@code{gcry_threads_pthread}.
After including this macro, @code{gcry_control()} shall be used with a
command of @code{GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS} in order to register the
thread callback structure named ``gcry_threads_pthread''. Example:
@smallexample
ret = gcry_control (GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS, &gcry_threads_pthread);
@end smallexample
@end table
Note that these macros need to be terminated with a semicolon. Keep
in mind that these are convenient macros for C programmers; C++
programmers might have to wrap these macros in an ``extern C'' body.
@node Enabling FIPS mode
@section How to enable the FIPS mode
@cindex FIPS mode
@cindex FIPS 140
Libgcrypt may be used in a FIPS 140-2 mode. Note, that this does not
necessary mean that Libcgrypt is an appoved FIPS 140-2 module. Check the
NIST database at @url{http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/} to see what
versions of Libgcrypt are approved.
Because FIPS 140 has certain restrictions on the use of cryptography
which are not always wanted, Libgcrypt needs to be put into FIPS mode
explicitly. Three alternative mechanisms are provided to switch
Libgcrypt into this mode:
@itemize
@item
If the file @file{/proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled} exists and contains a
numeric value other than @code{0}, Libgcrypt is put into FIPS mode at
initialization time. Obviously this works only on systems with a
@code{proc} file system (i.e. GNU/Linux).
@item
If the file @file{/etc/gcrypt/fips_enabled} exists, Libgcrypt is put
into FIPS mode at initialization time. Note that this filename is
hardwired and does not depend on any configuration options.
@item
If the application requests FIPS mode using the control command
@code{GCRYCTL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE}. This must be done prior to any
initialization (i.e. before @code{gcry_check_version}).
@end itemize
@cindex Enforced FIPS mode
In addition to the standard FIPS mode, Libgcrypt may also be put into
an Enforced FIPS mode by writing a non-zero value into the file
@file{/etc/gcrypt/fips_enabled} or by using the control command
@code{GCRYCTL_SET_ENFORCED_FIPS_FLAG} before any other calls to
libgcrypt. The Enforced FIPS mode helps to detect applications
which don't fulfill all requirements for using
Libgcrypt in FIPS mode (@pxref{FIPS Mode}).
Once Libgcrypt has been put into FIPS mode, it is not possible to
switch back to standard mode without terminating the process first.
If the logging verbosity level of Libgcrypt has been set to at least
2, the state transitions and the self-tests are logged.

@node Controlling the library
@section Controlling the library
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_control (enum gcry_ctl_cmds @var{cmd}, ...)
This function can be used to influence the general behavior of
Libgcrypt in several ways. Depending on @var{cmd}, more
arguments can or have to be provided.
@table @code
@item GCRYCTL_ENABLE_M_GUARD; Arguments: none
This command enables the built-in memory guard. It must not be used
to activate the memory guard after the memory management has already
been used; therefore it can ONLY be used before
@code{gcry_check_version}. Note that the memory guard is NOT used
when the user of the library has set his own memory management
callbacks.
@item GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM; Arguments: none
This command inhibits the use the very secure random quality level
(@code{GCRY_VERY_STRONG_RANDOM}) and degrades all request down to
@code{GCRY_STRONG_RANDOM}. In general this is not recommened. However,
for some applications the extra quality random Libgcrypt tries to create
is not justified and this option may help to get better performace.
Please check with a crypto expert whether this option can be used for
your application.
This option can only be used at initialization time.
@item GCRYCTL_DUMP_RANDOM_STATS; Arguments: none
This command dumps randum number generator related statistics to the
library's logging stream.
@item GCRYCTL_DUMP_MEMORY_STATS; Arguments: none
This command dumps memory managment related statistics to the library's
logging stream.
@item GCRYCTL_DUMP_SECMEM_STATS; Arguments: none
This command dumps secure memory manamgent related statistics to the
library's logging stream.
@item GCRYCTL_DROP_PRIVS; Arguments: none
This command disables the use of secure memory and drops the priviliges
of the current process. This command has not much use; the suggested way
to disable secure memory is to use @code{GCRYCTL_DISABLE_SECMEM} right
after initialization.
@item GCRYCTL_DISABLE_SECMEM; Arguments: none
This command disables the use of secure memory. If this command is
used in FIPS mode, FIPS mode will be disabled and the function
@code{gcry_fips_mode_active} returns false. However, in Enforced FIPS
mode this command has no effect at all.
Many applications do not require secure memory, so they should disable
it right away. This command should be executed right after
@code{gcry_check_version}.
@item GCRYCTL_INIT_SECMEM; Arguments: int nbytes
This command is used to allocate a pool of secure memory and thus
enabling the use of secure memory. It also drops all extra privileges
the process has (i.e. if it is run as setuid (root)). If the argument
@var{nbytes} is 0, secure memory will be disabled. The minimum amount
of secure memory allocated is currently 16384 bytes; you may thus use a
value of 1 to request that default size.
@item GCRYCTL_TERM_SECMEM; Arguments: none
This command zeroises the secure memory and destroys the handler. The
secure memory pool may not be used anymore after running this command.
If the secure memory pool as already been destroyed, this command has
no effect. Applications might want to run this command from their
exit handler to make sure that the secure memory gets properly
destroyed. This command is not necessarily thread-safe but that
should not be needed in cleanup code. It may be called from a signal
handler.
@item GCRYCTL_DISABLE_SECMEM_WARN; Arguments: none
Disable warning messages about problems with the secure memory
subsystem. This command should be run right after
@code{gcry_check_version}.
@item GCRYCTL_SUSPEND_SECMEM_WARN; Arguments: none
Postpone warning messages from the secure memory subsystem.
@xref{sample-use-suspend-secmem,,the initialization example}, on how to
use it.
@item GCRYCTL_RESUME_SECMEM_WARN; Arguments: none
Resume warning messages from the secure memory subsystem.
@xref{sample-use-resume-secmem,,the initialization example}, on how to
use it.
@item GCRYCTL_USE_SECURE_RNDPOOL; Arguments: none
This command tells the PRNG to store random numbers in secure memory.
This command should be run right after @code{gcry_check_version} and not
later than the command GCRYCTL_INIT_SECMEM. Note that in FIPS mode the
secure memory is always used.
@item GCRYCTL_SET_RANDOM_SEED_FILE; Arguments: const char *filename
This command specifies the file, which is to be used as seed file for
the PRNG. If the seed file is registered prior to initialization of the
PRNG, the seed file's content (if it exists and seems to be valid) is
fed into the PRNG pool. After the seed file has been registered, the
PRNG can be signalled to write out the PRNG pool's content into the seed
file with the following command.
@item GCRYCTL_UPDATE_RANDOM_SEED_FILE; Arguments: none
Write out the PRNG pool's content into the registered seed file.
Multiple instances of the applications sharing the same random seed file
can be started in parallel, in which case they will read out the same
pool and then race for updating it (the last update overwrites earlier
updates). They will differentiate only by the weak entropy that is
added in read_seed_file based on the PID and clock, and up to 16 bytes
of weak random non-blockingly. The consequence is that the output of
these different instances is correlated to some extent. In a perfect
attack scenario, the attacker can control (or at least guess) the PID
and clock of the application, and drain the system's entropy pool to
reduce the "up to 16 bytes" above to 0. Then the dependencies of the
inital states of the pools are completely known. Note that this is not
an issue if random of @code{GCRY_VERY_STRONG_RANDOM} quality is
requested as in this case enough extra entropy gets mixed. It is also
not an issue when using Linux (rndlinux driver), because this one
guarantees to read full 16 bytes from /dev/urandom and thus there is no
way for an attacker without kernel access to control these 16 bytes.
@item GCRYCTL_SET_VERBOSITY; Arguments: int level
This command sets the verbosity of the logging. A level of 0 disables
all extra logging whereas positive numbers enable more verbose logging.
The level may be changed at any time but be aware that no memory
synchronization is done so the effect of this command might not
immediately show up in other threads. This command may even be used
prior to @code{gcry_check_version}.
@item GCRYCTL_SET_DEBUG_FLAGS; Arguments: unsigned int flags
Set the debug flag bits as given by the argument. Be aware that that no
memory synchronization is done so the effect of this command might not
immediately show up in other threads. The debug flags are not
considered part of the API and thus may change without notice. As of
now bit 0 enables debugging of cipher functions and bit 1 debugging of
multi-precision-integers. This command may even be used prior to
@code{gcry_check_version}.
@item GCRYCTL_CLEAR_DEBUG_FLAGS; Arguments: unsigned int flags
Set the debug flag bits as given by the argument. Be aware that that no
memory synchronization is done so the effect of this command might not
immediately show up in other threads. This command may even be used
prior to @code{gcry_check_version}.
@item GCRYCTL_DISABLE_INTERNAL_LOCKING; Arguments: none
This command does nothing. It exists only for backward compatibility.
@item GCRYCTL_ANY_INITIALIZATION_P; Arguments: none
This command returns true if the library has been basically initialized.
Such a basic initialization happens implicitly with many commands to get
certain internal subsystems running. The common and suggested way to
do this basic intialization is by calling gcry_check_version.
@item GCRYCTL_INITIALIZATION_FINISHED; Arguments: none
This command tells the library that the application has finished the
intialization.
@item GCRYCTL_INITIALIZATION_FINISHED_P; Arguments: none
This command returns true if the command@*
GCRYCTL_INITIALIZATION_FINISHED has already been run.
@item GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS; Arguments: struct ath_ops *ath_ops
This command registers a thread-callback structure.
@xref{Multi-Threading}.
@item GCRYCTL_FAST_POLL; Arguments: none
Run a fast random poll.
@item GCRYCTL_SET_RNDEGD_SOCKET; Arguments: const char *filename
This command may be used to override the default name of the EGD socket
to connect to. It may be used only during initialization as it is not
thread safe. Changing the socket name again is not supported. The
function may return an error if the given filename is too long for a
local socket name.
EGD is an alternative random gatherer, used only on systems lacking a
proper random device.
@item GCRYCTL_PRINT_CONFIG; Arguments: FILE *stream
This command dumps information pertaining to the configuration of the
library to the given stream. If NULL is given for @var{stream}, the log
system is used. This command may be used before the intialization has
been finished but not before a @code{gcry_check_version}.
@item GCRYCTL_OPERATIONAL_P; Arguments: none
This command returns true if the library is in an operational state.
This information makes only sense in FIPS mode. In contrast to other
functions, this is a pure test function and won't put the library into
FIPS mode or change the internal state. This command may be used before
the intialization has been finished but not before a @code{gcry_check_version}.
@item GCRYCTL_FIPS_MODE_P; Arguments: none
This command returns true if the library is in FIPS mode. Note, that
this is no indication about the current state of the library. This
command may be used before the intialization has been finished but not
before a @code{gcry_check_version}. An application may use this command or
the convenience macro below to check whether FIPS mode is actually
active.
@deftypefun int gcry_fips_mode_active (void)
Returns true if the FIPS mode is active. Note that this is
implemented as a macro.
@end deftypefun
@item GCRYCTL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE; Arguments: none
Running this command puts the library into FIPS mode. If the library is
already in FIPS mode, a self-test is triggered and thus the library will
be put into operational state. This command may be used before a call
to @code{gcry_check_version} and that is actually the recommended way to let an
application switch the library into FIPS mode. Note that Libgcrypt will
reject an attempt to switch to fips mode during or after the intialization.
@item GCRYCTL_SET_ENFORCED_FIPS_FLAG; Arguments: none
Running this command sets the internal flag that puts the library into
the enforced FIPS mode during the FIPS mode initialization. This command
does not affect the library if the library is not put into the FIPS mode and
it must be used before any other libgcrypt library calls that initialize
the library such as @code{gcry_check_version}. Note that Libgcrypt will
reject an attempt to switch to the enforced fips mode during or after
the intialization.
+@item GCRYCTL_SET_PREFERRED_RNG_TYPE; Arguments: int
+These are advisory commands to select a certain random number
+generator. They are only advisory because libraries may not know what
+an application actually wants or vice versa. Thus Libgcrypt employs a
+priority check to select the actually used RNG. If an applications
+selects a lower priority RNG but a library requests a higher priority
+RNG Libgcrypt will switch to the higher priority RNG. Applications
+and libaries should use these control codes before
+@code{gcry_check_version}. The available generators are:
+@table @code
+@item GCRY_RNG_TYPE_STANDARD
+A conservative standard generator based on the ``Continuously Seeded
+Pseudo Random Number Generator'' designed by Peter Gutmann.
+@item GCRY_RNG_TYPE_FIPS
+A deterministic random number generator conforming to he document
+``NIST-Recommended Random Number Generator Based on ANSI X9.31
+Appendix A.2.4 Using the 3-Key Triple DES and AES Algorithms''
+(2005-01-31). This implementation uses the AES variant.
+@item GCRY_RNG_TYPE_SYSTEM
+A wrapper around the system's native RNG. On Unix system these are
+usually the /dev/random and /dev/urandom devices.
+@end table
+The default is @code{GCRY_RNG_TYPE_STANDARD} unless FIPS mode as been

@item GCRYCTL_SELFTEST; Arguments: none
This may be used at anytime to have the library run all implemented
self-tests. It works in standard and in FIPS mode. Returns 0 on
success or an error code on failure.
@item GCRYCTL_DISABLE_HWF; Arguments: const char *name
Libgcrypt detects certain features of the CPU at startup time. For
performace tests it is sometimes required not to use such a feature.
This option may be used to disabale a certain feature; i.e. Libgcrypt
behaves as if this feature has not been detected. Note that the
detection code might be run if the feature has been disabled. This
command must be used at initialization time; i.e. before calling
@code{gcry_check_version}.

@node Error Handling
@section Error Handling
Many functions in Libgcrypt can return an error if they
fail. For this reason, the application should always catch the error
condition and take appropriate measures, for example by releasing the
resources and passing the error up to the caller, or by displaying a
descriptive message to the user and cancelling the operation.
Some error values do not indicate a system error or an error in the
operation, but the result of an operation that failed properly. For
example, if you try to decrypt a tempered message, the decryption will
fail. Another error value actually means that the end of a data
buffer or list has been reached. The following descriptions explain
for many error codes what they mean usually. Some error values have
specific meanings if returned by a certain functions. Such cases are
described in the documentation of those functions.
Libgcrypt uses the @code{libgpg-error} library. This allows to share
the error codes with other components of the GnuPG system, and to pass
error values transparently from the crypto engine, or some helper
application of the crypto engine, to the user. This way no
information is lost. As a consequence, Libgcrypt does not use its own
identifiers for error codes, but uses those provided by
@code{libgpg-error}. They usually start with @code{GPG_ERR_}.
However, Libgcrypt does provide aliases for the functions
defined in libgpg-error, which might be preferred for name space
consistency.
Most functions in Libgcrypt return an error code in the case
of failure. For this reason, the application should always catch the
error condition and take appropriate measures, for example by
releasing the resources and passing the error up to the caller, or by
displaying a descriptive message to the user and canceling the
operation.
Some error values do not indicate a system error or an error in the
operation, but the result of an operation that failed properly.
GnuPG components, including Libgcrypt, use an extra library named
libgpg-error to provide a common error handling scheme. For more
information on libgpg-error, see the according manual.

@cindex error codes
@cindex error sources
@deftp {Data type} {gcry_err_code_t}
The @code{gcry_err_code_t} type is an alias for the
@code{libgpg-error} type @code{gpg_err_code_t}. The error code
indicates the type of an error, or the reason why an operation failed.
A list of important error codes can be found in the next section.
@end deftp
@deftp {Data type} {gcry_err_source_t}
The @code{gcry_err_source_t} type is an alias for the
@code{libgpg-error} type @code{gpg_err_source_t}. The error source
has not a precisely defined meaning. Sometimes it is the place where
the error happened, sometimes it is the place where an error was
encoded into an error value. Usually the error source will give an
indication to where to look for the problem. This is not always true,
but it is attempted to achieve this goal.
A list of important error sources can be found in the next section.
@end deftp
@deftp {Data type} {gcry_error_t}
The @code{gcry_error_t} type is an alias for the @code{libgpg-error}
type @code{gpg_error_t}. An error value like this has always two
components, an error code and an error source. Both together form the
error value.
Thus, the error value can not be directly compared against an error
code, but the accessor functions described below must be used.
However, it is guaranteed that only 0 is used to indicate success
(@code{GPG_ERR_NO_ERROR}), and that in this case all other parts of
the error value are set to 0, too.
Note that in Libgcrypt, the error source is used purely for
diagnostic purposes. Only the error code should be checked to test
for a certain outcome of a function. The manual only documents the
error code part of an error value. The error source is left
unspecified and might be anything.
@end deftp
@deftypefun {gcry_err_code_t} gcry_err_code (@w{gcry_error_t @var{err}})
The static inline function @code{gcry_err_code} returns the
@code{gcry_err_code_t} component of the error value @var{err}. This
function must be used to extract the error code from an error value in
order to compare it with the @code{GPG_ERR_*} error code macros.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {gcry_err_source_t} gcry_err_source (@w{gcry_error_t @var{err}})
The static inline function @code{gcry_err_source} returns the
@code{gcry_err_source_t} component of the error value @var{err}. This
function must be used to extract the error source from an error value in
order to compare it with the @code{GPG_ERR_SOURCE_*} error source macros.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {gcry_error_t} gcry_err_make (@w{gcry_err_source_t @var{source}}, @w{gcry_err_code_t @var{code}})
The static inline function @code{gcry_err_make} returns the error
value consisting of the error source @var{source} and the error code
@var{code}.
This function can be used in callback functions to construct an error
value to return it to the library.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {gcry_error_t} gcry_error (@w{gcry_err_code_t @var{code}})
The static inline function @code{gcry_error} returns the error value
consisting of the default error source and the error code @var{code}.
For @acronym{GCRY} applications, the default error source is
@code{GPG_ERR_SOURCE_USER_1}. You can define
@code{GCRY_ERR_SOURCE_DEFAULT} before including @file{gcrypt.h} to
change this default.
This function can be used in callback functions to construct an error
value to return it to the library.
@end deftypefun
The @code{libgpg-error} library provides error codes for all system
error numbers it knows about. If @var{err} is an unknown error
number, the error code @code{GPG_ERR_UNKNOWN_ERRNO} is used. The
following functions can be used to construct error values from system
errno numbers.
@deftypefun {gcry_error_t} gcry_err_make_from_errno (@w{gcry_err_source_t @var{source}}, @w{int @var{err}})
The function @code{gcry_err_make_from_errno} is like
@code{gcry_err_make}, but it takes a system error like @code{errno}
instead of a @code{gcry_err_code_t} error code.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {gcry_error_t} gcry_error_from_errno (@w{int @var{err}})
The function @code{gcry_error_from_errno} is like @code{gcry_error},
but it takes a system error like @code{errno} instead of a
@code{gcry_err_code_t} error code.
@end deftypefun
Sometimes you might want to map system error numbers to error codes
directly, or map an error code representing a system error back to the
system error number. The following functions can be used to do that.
@deftypefun {gcry_err_code_t} gcry_err_code_from_errno (@w{int @var{err}})
The function @code{gcry_err_code_from_errno} returns the error code
for the system error @var{err}. If @var{err} is not a known system
error, the function returns @code{GPG_ERR_UNKNOWN_ERRNO}.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {int} gcry_err_code_to_errno (@w{gcry_err_code_t @var{err}})
The function @code{gcry_err_code_to_errno} returns the system error
for the error code @var{err}. If @var{err} is not an error code
representing a system error, or if this system error is not defined on
this system, the function returns @code{0}.
@end deftypefun
@node Error Sources
@subsection Error Sources
@cindex error codes, list of
The library @code{libgpg-error} defines an error source for every
component of the GnuPG system. The error source part of an error
value is not well defined. As such it is mainly useful to improve the
diagnostic error message for the user.
If the error code part of an error value is @code{0}, the whole error
value will be @code{0}. In this case the error source part is of
course @code{GPG_ERR_SOURCE_UNKNOWN}.
The list of error sources that might occur in applications using
@acronym{Libgcrypt} is:
@table @code
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_UNKNOWN
The error source is not known. The value of this error source is
@code{0}.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_GPGME
The error source is @acronym{GPGME} itself.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_GPG
The error source is GnuPG, which is the crypto engine used for the
OpenPGP protocol.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_GPGSM
The error source is GPGSM, which is the crypto engine used for the
OpenPGP protocol.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_GCRYPT
The error source is @code{libgcrypt}, which is used by crypto engines
to perform cryptographic operations.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_GPGAGENT
The error source is @command{gpg-agent}, which is used by crypto
engines to perform operations with the secret key.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_PINENTRY
The error source is @command{pinentry}, which is used by
@command{gpg-agent} to query the passphrase to unlock a secret key.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_SCD
The error source is the SmartCard Daemon, which is used by
@command{gpg-agent} to delegate operations with the secret key to a
SmartCard.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_KEYBOX
The error source is @code{libkbx}, a library used by the crypto
engines to manage local keyrings.
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_USER_1
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_USER_2
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_USER_3
@item GPG_ERR_SOURCE_USER_4
These error sources are not used by any GnuPG component and can be
used by other software. For example, applications using
Libgcrypt can use them to mark error values coming from callback
handlers. Thus @code{GPG_ERR_SOURCE_USER_1} is the default for errors
created with @code{gcry_error} and @code{gcry_error_from_errno},
unless you define @code{GCRY_ERR_SOURCE_DEFAULT} before including
@file{gcrypt.h}.
@end table
@node Error Codes
@subsection Error Codes
@cindex error codes, list of
The library @code{libgpg-error} defines many error values. The
following list includes the most important error codes.
@table @code
@item GPG_ERR_EOF
This value indicates the end of a list, buffer or file.
@item GPG_ERR_NO_ERROR
This value indicates success. The value of this error code is
@code{0}. Also, it is guaranteed that an error value made from the
error code @code{0} will be @code{0} itself (as a whole). This means
that the error source information is lost for this error code,
however, as this error code indicates that no error occurred, this is
generally not a problem.
@item GPG_ERR_GENERAL
This value means that something went wrong, but either there is not
enough information about the problem to return a more useful error
value, or there is no separate error value for this type of problem.
@item GPG_ERR_ENOMEM
This value means that an out-of-memory condition occurred.
@item GPG_ERR_E...
System errors are mapped to GPG_ERR_EFOO where FOO is the symbol for
the system error.
@item GPG_ERR_INV_VALUE
This value means that some user provided data was out of range.
@item GPG_ERR_UNUSABLE_PUBKEY
This value means that some recipients for a message were invalid.
@item GPG_ERR_UNUSABLE_SECKEY
This value means that some signers were invalid.
@item GPG_ERR_NO_DATA
This value means that data was expected where no data was found.
@item GPG_ERR_CONFLICT
This value means that a conflict of some sort occurred.
@item GPG_ERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED
This value indicates that the specific function (or operation) is not
implemented. This error should never happen. It can only occur if
you use certain values or configuration options which do not work,
but for which we think that they should work at some later time.
@item GPG_ERR_DECRYPT_FAILED
This value indicates that a decryption operation was unsuccessful.
@item GPG_ERR_WRONG_KEY_USAGE
This value indicates that a key is not used appropriately.
@item GPG_ERR_NO_SECKEY
This value indicates that no secret key for the user ID is available.
@item GPG_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ALGORITHM
This value means a verification failed because the cryptographic
algorithm is not supported by the crypto backend.
@item GPG_ERR_BAD_SIGNATURE
This value means a verification failed because the signature is bad.
@item GPG_ERR_NO_PUBKEY
This value means a verification failed because the public key is not
available.
@item GPG_ERR_NOT_OPERATIONAL
This value means that the library is not yet in state which allows to
use this function. This error code is in particular returned if
Libgcrypt is operated in FIPS mode and the internal state of the
library does not yet or not anymore allow the use of a service.
This error code is only available with newer libgpg-error versions, thus
you might see ``invalid error code'' when passing this to
@code{gpg_strerror}. The numeric value of this error code is 176.
@item GPG_ERR_USER_1
@item GPG_ERR_USER_2
@item ...
@item GPG_ERR_USER_16
These error codes are not used by any GnuPG component and can be
freely used by other software. Applications using Libgcrypt
might use them to mark specific errors returned by callback handlers
if no suitable error codes (including the system errors) for these
errors exist already.

@section Progress handler
It is often useful to retrieve some feedback while long running

@deftp {Data type} gcry_handler_progress_t
Progress handler functions have to be of the type
@code{gcry_handler_progress_t}, which is defined as:
@code{void (*gcry_handler_progress_t) (void *, const char *, int, int, int)}
@end deftp
The following function may be used to register a handler function for
this purpose.
@deftypefun void gcry_set_progress_handler (gcry_handler_progress_t @var{cb}, void *@var{cb_data})
This function installs @var{cb} as the `Progress handler' function.
It may be used only during initialization. @var{cb} must be defined
as follows:
@example
void
my_progress_handler (void *@var{cb_data}, const char *@var{what},
int @var{printchar}, int @var{current}, int @var{total})
@{
/* Do something. */
@}
@end example
A description of the arguments of the progress handler function follows.
@table @var
@item cb_data

@node Allocation handler
@section Allocation handler
It is possible to make Libgcrypt use special memory
allocation functions instead of the built-in ones.
Memory allocation functions are of the following types:
@deftp {Data type} gcry_handler_alloc_t
This type is defined as: @code{void *(*gcry_handler_alloc_t) (size_t n)}.
@end deftp
@deftp {Data type} gcry_handler_secure_check_t
This type is defined as: @code{int *(*gcry_handler_secure_check_t) (const void *)}.
@end deftp
@deftp {Data type} gcry_handler_realloc_t
This type is defined as: @code{void *(*gcry_handler_realloc_t) (void *p, size_t n)}.
@end deftp
@deftp {Data type} gcry_handler_free_t
This type is defined as: @code{void *(*gcry_handler_free_t) (void *)}.
@end deftp
Special memory allocation functions can be installed with the
following function:
@deftypefun void gcry_set_allocation_handler (gcry_handler_alloc_t @var{func_alloc}, gcry_handler_alloc_t @var{func_alloc_secure}, gcry_handler_secure_check_t @var{func_secure_check}, gcry_handler_realloc_t @var{func_realloc}, gcry_handler_free_t @var{func_free})
Install the provided functions and use them instead of the built-in
functions for doing memory allocation. Using this function is in
general not recommended because the standard Libgcrypt allocation
functions are guaranteed to zeroize memory if needed.
This function may be used only during initialization and may not be
used in fips mode.
@end deftypefun
@node Error handler
@section Error handler
The following functions may be used to register handler functions that
are called by Libgcrypt in case certain error conditions occur. They
may and should be registered prior to calling @code{gcry_check_version}.
@deftp {Data type} gcry_handler_no_mem_t
This type is defined as: @code{int (*gcry_handler_no_mem_t) (void *, size_t, unsigned int)}
@end deftp
@deftypefun void gcry_set_outofcore_handler (gcry_handler_no_mem_t @var{func_no_mem}, void *@var{cb_data})
This function registers @var{func_no_mem} as `out-of-core handler',
which means that it will be called in the case of not having enough
memory available. The handler is called with 3 arguments: The first
one is the pointer @var{cb_data} as set with this function, the second
is the requested memory size and the last being a flag. If bit 0 of
the flag is set, secure memory has been requested. The handler should
either return true to indicate that Libgcrypt should try again
allocating memory or return false to let Libgcrypt use its default
fatal error handler.
@end deftypefun
@deftp {Data type} gcry_handler_error_t
This type is defined as: @code{void (*gcry_handler_error_t) (void *, int, const char *)}
@end deftp
@deftypefun void gcry_set_fatalerror_handler (gcry_handler_error_t @var{func_error}, void *@var{cb_data})
This function registers @var{func_error} as `error handler',
which means that it will be called in error conditions.
@end deftypefun
@node Logging handler

@deftp {Data type} gcry_handler_log_t
This type is defined as: @code{void (*gcry_handler_log_t) (void *, int, const char *, va_list)}
@end deftp
@deftypefun void gcry_set_log_handler (gcry_handler_log_t @var{func_log}, void *@var{cb_data})
This function registers @var{func_log} as `logging handler', which means

@item GCRY_CIPHER_MODE_AESWRAP
@cindex AES-Wrap mode
This mode is used to implement the AES-Wrap algorithm according to
RFC-3394. It may be used with any 128 bit block length algorithm,
however the specs require one of the 3 AES algorithms. These special
conditions apply: If @code{gcry_cipher_setiv} has not been used the
standard IV is used; if it has been used the lower 64 bit of the IV
are used as the Alternative Initial Value. On encryption the provided
output buffer must be 64 bit (8 byte) larger than the input buffer;
in-place encryption is still allowed. On decryption the output buffer
may be specified 64 bit (8 byte) shorter than then input buffer. As
per specs the input length must be at least 128 bits and the length
must be a multiple of 64 bits.

@node Working with cipher handles
@section Working with cipher handles
To use a cipher algorithm, you must first allocate an according
handle. This is to be done using the open function:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_open (gcry_cipher_hd_t *@var{hd}, int @var{algo}, int @var{mode}, unsigned int @var{flags})
This function creates the context handle required for most of the
other cipher functions and returns a handle to it in `hd'. In case of
an error, an according error code is returned.
The ID of algorithm to use must be specified via @var{algo}. See
@xref{Available ciphers}, for a list of supported ciphers and the
according constants.
Besides using the constants directly, the function
@code{gcry_cipher_map_name} may be used to convert the textual name of
an algorithm into the according numeric ID.
The cipher mode to use must be specified via @var{mode}. See
@xref{Available cipher modes}, for a list of supported cipher modes
and the according constants. Note that some modes are incompatible
with some algorithms - in particular, stream mode
(@code{GCRY_CIPHER_MODE_STREAM}) only works with stream ciphers. Any
block cipher mode (@code{GCRY_CIPHER_MODE_ECB},
@code{GCRY_CIPHER_MODE_CBC}, @code{GCRY_CIPHER_MODE_CFB},
@code{GCRY_CIPHER_MODE_OFB} or @code{GCRY_CIPHER_MODE_CTR}) will work
with any block cipher algorithm.
The third argument @var{flags} can either be passed as @code{0} or as
the bit-wise OR of the following constants.
@table @code
@item GCRY_CIPHER_SECURE
Make sure that all operations are allocated in secure memory. This is
useful when the key material is highly confidential.
@item GCRY_CIPHER_ENABLE_SYNC
@cindex sync mode (OpenPGP)
This flag enables the CFB sync mode, which is a special feature of
Libgcrypt's CFB mode implementation to allow for OpenPGP's CFB variant.
See @code{gcry_cipher_sync}.
@item GCRY_CIPHER_CBC_CTS
@cindex cipher text stealing
Enable cipher text stealing (CTS) for the CBC mode. Cannot be used
simultaneous as GCRY_CIPHER_CBC_MAC. CTS mode makes it possible to
transform data of almost arbitrary size (only limitation is that it
must be greater than the algorithm's block size).
@item GCRY_CIPHER_CBC_MAC
@cindex CBC-MAC
Compute CBC-MAC keyed checksums. This is the same as CBC mode, but
only output the last block. Cannot be used simultaneous as
GCRY_CIPHER_CBC_CTS.
@end table
@end deftypefun
Use the following function to release an existing handle:
@deftypefun void gcry_cipher_close (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h})
This function releases the context created by @code{gcry_cipher_open}.
It also zeroises all sensitive information associated with this cipher
handle.
@end deftypefun
In order to use a handle for performing cryptographic operations, a
`key' has to be set first:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_setkey (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h}, const void *@var{k}, size_t @var{l})
Set the key @var{k} used for encryption or decryption in the context
denoted by the handle @var{h}. The length @var{l} (in bytes) of the
key @var{k} must match the required length of the algorithm set for
this context or be in the allowed range for algorithms with variable
key size. The function checks this and returns an error if there is a
problem. A caller should always check for an error.
@end deftypefun
Most crypto modes requires an initialization vector (IV), which
usually is a non-secret random string acting as a kind of salt value.
The CTR mode requires a counter, which is also similar to a salt
value. To set the IV or CTR, use these functions:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_setiv (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h}, const void *@var{k}, size_t @var{l})
Set the initialization vector used for encryption or decryption. The
vector is passed as the buffer @var{K} of length @var{l} bytes and
copied to internal data structures. The function checks that the IV
matches the requirement of the selected algorithm and mode.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_setctr (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h}, const void *@var{c}, size_t @var{l})
Set the counter vector used for encryption or decryption. The counter
is passed as the buffer @var{c} of length @var{l} bytes and copied to
internal data structures. The function checks that the counter
matches the requirement of the selected algorithm (i.e., it must be
the same size as the block size).
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_reset (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h})
Set the given handle's context back to the state it had after the last
call to gcry_cipher_setkey and clear the initialization vector.
Note that gcry_cipher_reset is implemented as a macro.
@end deftypefun
The actual encryption and decryption is done by using one of the
following functions. They may be used as often as required to process
all the data.
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_encrypt (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h}, unsigned char *{out}, size_t @var{outsize}, const unsigned char *@var{in}, size_t @var{inlen})
@code{gcry_cipher_encrypt} is used to encrypt the data. This function
can either work in place or with two buffers. It uses the cipher
context already setup and described by the handle @var{h}. There are 2
ways to use the function: If @var{in} is passed as @code{NULL} and
@var{inlen} is @code{0}, in-place encryption of the data in @var{out} or
length @var{outsize} takes place. With @var{in} being not @code{NULL},
@var{inlen} bytes are encrypted to the buffer @var{out} which must have
at least a size of @var{inlen}. @var{outsize} must be set to the
allocated size of @var{out}, so that the function can check that there
is sufficient space. Note that overlapping buffers are not allowed.
Depending on the selected algorithms and encryption mode, the length of
the buffers must be a multiple of the block size.
The function returns @code{0} on success or an error code.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_decrypt (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h}, unsigned char *{out}, size_t @var{outsize}, const unsigned char *@var{in}, size_t @var{inlen})
@code{gcry_cipher_decrypt} is used to decrypt the data. This function
can either work in place or with two buffers. It uses the cipher
context already setup and described by the handle @var{h}. There are 2
ways to use the function: If @var{in} is passed as @code{NULL} and
@var{inlen} is @code{0}, in-place decryption of the data in @var{out} or
length @var{outsize} takes place. With @var{in} being not @code{NULL},
@var{inlen} bytes are decrypted to the buffer @var{out} which must have
at least a size of @var{inlen}. @var{outsize} must be set to the
allocated size of @var{out}, so that the function can check that there
is sufficient space. Note that overlapping buffers are not allowed.
Depending on the selected algorithms and encryption mode, the length of
the buffers must be a multiple of the block size.
The function returns @code{0} on success or an error code.
@end deftypefun
OpenPGP (as defined in RFC-2440) requires a special sync operation in
some places. The following function is used for this:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_sync (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h})
Perform the OpenPGP sync operation on context @var{h}. Note that this
is a no-op unless the context was created with the flag
@code{GCRY_CIPHER_ENABLE_SYNC}
@end deftypefun
Some of the described functions are implemented as macros utilizing a
catch-all control function. This control function is rarely used
directly but there is nothing which would inhibit it:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_ctl (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h}, int @var{cmd}, void *@var{buffer}, size_t @var{buflen})
@code{gcry_cipher_ctl} controls various aspects of the cipher module and
specific cipher contexts. Usually some more specialized functions or
macros are used for this purpose. The semantics of the function and its
parameters depends on the the command @var{cmd} and the passed context
handle @var{h}. Please see the comments in the source code
(@code{src/global.c}) for details.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_info (gcry_cipher_hd_t @var{h}, int @var{what}, void *@var{buffer}, size_t *@var{nbytes})
@code{gcry_cipher_info} is used to retrieve various
information about a cipher context or the cipher module in general.
Currently no information is available.
@end deftypefun
@node General cipher functions
@section General cipher functions
To work with the algorithms, several functions are available to map
algorithm names to the internal identifiers, as well as ways to
retrieve information about an algorithm or the current cipher context.
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_cipher_algo_info (int @var{algo}, int @var{what}, void *@var{buffer}, size_t *@var{nbytes})
This function is used to retrieve information on a specific algorithm.
You pass the cipher algorithm ID as @var{algo} and the type of
information requested as @var{what}. The result is either returned as
the return code of the function or copied to the provided @var{buffer}
whose allocated length must be available in an integer variable with the
address passed in @var{nbytes}. This variable will also receive the
actual used length of the buffer.
Here is a list of supported codes for @var{what}:
@c begin constants for gcry_cipher_algo_info
@table @code
@item GCRYCTL_GET_KEYLEN:
Return the length of the key. If the algorithm supports multiple key
lengths, the maximum supported value is returned. The length is
returned as number of octets (bytes) and not as number of bits in
@var{nbytes}; @var{buffer} must be zero. Note that it is usually
better to use the convenience function
@code{gcry_cipher_get_algo_keylen}.
@item GCRYCTL_GET_BLKLEN:
Return the block length of the algorithm. The length is returned as a
number of octets in @var{nbytes}; @var{buffer} must be zero. Note
that it is usually better to use the convenience function
@code{gcry_cipher_get_algo_blklen}.
@item GCRYCTL_TEST_ALGO:
Returns @code{0} when the specified algorithm is available for use.
@var{buffer} and @var{nbytes} must be zero.
@end table
@c end constants for gcry_cipher_algo_info
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_cipher_algo_info
@deftypefun size_t gcry_cipher_get_algo_keylen (@var{algo})
This function returns length of the key for algorithm @var{algo}. If
the algorithm supports multiple key lengths, the maximum supported key
length is returned. On error @code{0} is returned. The key length is
returned as number of octets.
This is a convenience functions which should be preferred over
@code{gcry_cipher_algo_info} because it allows for proper type
checking.
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_cipher_get_algo_keylen
@deftypefun size_t gcry_cipher_get_algo_blklen (int @var{algo})
This functions returns the blocklength of the algorithm @var{algo}
counted in octets. On error @code{0} is returned.
This is a convenience functions which should be preferred over
@code{gcry_cipher_algo_info} because it allows for proper type
checking.
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_cipher_get_algo_blklen
@deftypefun {const char *} gcry_cipher_algo_name (int @var{algo})
@code{gcry_cipher_algo_name} returns a string with the name of the
cipher algorithm @var{algo}. If the algorithm is not known or another
error occurred, the string @code{"?"} is returned. This function should
not be used to test for the availability of an algorithm.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun int gcry_cipher_map_name (const char *@var{name})
@code{gcry_cipher_map_name} returns the algorithm identifier for the
cipher algorithm described by the string @var{name}. If this algorithm
is not available @code{0} is returned.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun int gcry_cipher_mode_from_oid (const char *@var{string})
Return the cipher mode associated with an @acronym{ASN.1} object
identifier. The object identifier is expected to be in the
@acronym{IETF}-style dotted decimal notation. The function returns
@code{0} for an unknown object identifier or when no mode is associated
with it.

@chapter Public Key cryptography
Public key cryptography, also known as asymmetric cryptography, is an
easy way for key management and to provide digital signatures.
Libgcrypt provides two completely different interfaces to
public key cryptography, this chapter explains the one based on
S-expressions.

@node Available algorithms
@section Available algorithms
Libgcrypt supports the RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) algorithms as well
as DSA (Digital Signature Algorithm) and Elgamal. The versatile
interface allows to add more algorithms in the future.
@node Used S-expressions
@section Used S-expressions
Libgcrypt's API for asymmetric cryptography is based on data structures
called S-expressions (see
@uref{http://people.csail.mit.edu/@/rivest/@/sexp.html}) and does not work
with contexts as most of the other building blocks of Libgcrypt do.
@noindent
The following information are stored in S-expressions:
@itemize @asis
@item keys
@item plain text data
@item encrypted data
@item signatures
@end itemize
@noindent
To describe how Libgcrypt expect keys, we use examples. Note that
words in
@ifnottex
uppercase
@end ifnottex
@iftex
italics
@end iftex
indicate parameters whereas lowercase words are literals.
Note that all MPI (multi-precision-integers) values are expected to be in
@code{GCRYMPI_FMT_USG} format. An easy way to create S-expressions is
by using @code{gcry_sexp_build} which allows to pass a string with
printf-like escapes to insert MPI values.
@menu
* RSA key parameters:: Parameters used with an RSA key.
* DSA key parameters:: Parameters used with a DSA key.

@end menu
@node RSA key parameters
@subsection RSA key parameters
@noindent
An RSA private key is described by this S-expression:
@example
(private-key
(rsa
(n @var{n-mpi})
(e @var{e-mpi})
(d @var{d-mpi})
(p @var{p-mpi})
(q @var{q-mpi})
(u @var{u-mpi})))
@end example
@noindent
An RSA public key is described by this S-expression:
@example
(public-key
(rsa
(n @var{n-mpi})
(e @var{e-mpi})))
@end example
@table @var
@item n-mpi
RSA public modulus @math{n}.
@item e-mpi
RSA public exponent @math{e}.
@item d-mpi
RSA secret exponent @math{d = e^{-1} \bmod (p-1)(q-1)}.
@item p-mpi
RSA secret prime @math{p}.
@item q-mpi
RSA secret prime @math{q} with @math{p < q}.
@item u-mpi
Multiplicative inverse @math{u = p^{-1} \bmod q}.
@end table
For signing and decryption the parameters @math{(p, q, u)} are optional
but greatly improve the performance. Either all of these optional
parameters must be given or none of them. They are mandatory for
gcry_pk_testkey.
Note that OpenSSL uses slighly different parameters: @math{q < p} and
@math{u = q^{-1} \bmod p}. To use these parameters you will need to
swap the values and recompute @math{u}. Here is example code to do this:
@example
if (gcry_mpi_cmp (p, q) > 0)
@{
gcry_mpi_swap (p, q);
gcry_mpi_invm (u, p, q);
@}
@end example
@node DSA key parameters
@subsection DSA key parameters
@noindent
A DSA private key is described by this S-expression:
@example
(private-key
(dsa
(p @var{p-mpi})
(q @var{q-mpi})
(g @var{g-mpi})
(y @var{y-mpi})
(x @var{x-mpi})))
@end example
@table @var
@item p-mpi
DSA prime @math{p}.
@item q-mpi
DSA group order @math{q} (which is a prime divisor of @math{p-1}).
@item g-mpi
DSA group generator @math{g}.
@item y-mpi
DSA public key value @math{y = g^x \bmod p}.
@item x-mpi
DSA secret exponent x.
@end table
The public key is similar with "private-key" replaced by "public-key"
and no @var{x-mpi}.
@node ECC key parameters
@subsection ECC key parameters
@noindent
An ECC private key is described by this S-expression:
@example
(private-key
(ecc
(p @var{p-mpi})
(a @var{a-mpi})
(b @var{b-mpi})
(g @var{g-point})
(n @var{n-mpi})
(q @var{q-point})
(d @var{d-mpi})))
@end example
@table @var
@item p-mpi
Prime specifying the field @math{GF(p)}.
@item a-mpi
@itemx b-mpi
The two coefficients of the Weierstrass equation @math{y^2 = x^3 + ax + b}
@item g-point
Base point @math{g}.
@item n-mpi
Order of @math{g}
@item q-point
The point representing the public key @math{Q = dP}.
@item d-mpi
The private key @math{d}
@end table
All point values are encoded in standard format; Libgcrypt does
currently only support uncompressed points, thus the first byte needs to
be @code{0x04}.
The public key is similar with "private-key" replaced by "public-key"
and no @var{d-mpi}.
If the domain parameters are well-known, the name of this curve may be
used. For example
@example
(private-key
(ecc
(curve "NIST P-192")
(q @var{q-point})
(d @var{d-mpi})))
@end example
The @code{curve} parameter may be given in any case and is used to replace
missing parameters.
@noindent
Currently implemented curves are:
@table @code
@item NIST P-192
@itemx 1.2.840.10045.3.1.1
@itemx prime192v1
@itemx secp192r1

@item NIST P-224
@itemx secp224r1

@end table
As usual the OIDs may optionally be prefixed with the string @code{OID.}
or @code{oid.}.
@node Cryptographic Functions
@section Cryptographic Functions
@noindent
Note that we will in future allow to use keys without p,q and u
specified and may also support other parameters for performance
reasons.
@noindent
Some functions operating on S-expressions support `flags', that
influence the operation. These flags have to be listed in a
sub-S-expression named `flags'; the following flags are known:
@table @code
@item pkcs1
Use PKCS#1 block type 2 padding for encryption, block type 1 padding
for signing.
@item oaep
Use RSA-OAEP padding for encryption.
@item pss
Use RSA-PSS padding for signing.
@item no-blinding
Do not use a technique called `blinding', which is used by default in
order to prevent leaking of secret information. Blinding is only
implemented by RSA, but it might be implemented by other algorithms in
the future as well, when necessary.
@end table
@noindent
Now that we know the key basics, we can carry on and explain how to
encrypt and decrypt data. In almost all cases the data is a random
session key which is in turn used for the actual encryption of the real
data. There are 2 functions to do this:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_pk_encrypt (@w{gcry_sexp_t *@var{r_ciph},} @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{data},} @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{pkey}})
Obviously a public key must be provided for encryption. It is
expected as an appropriate S-expression (see above) in @var{pkey}.
The data to be encrypted can either be in the simple old format, which
is a very simple S-expression consisting only of one MPI, or it may be
a more complex S-expression which also allows to specify flags for
operation, like e.g. padding rules.
@noindent
If you don't want to let Libgcrypt handle the padding, you must pass an
appropriate MPI using this expression for @var{data}:
@example
(data
(flags raw)
(value @var{mpi}))
@end example
@noindent
This has the same semantics as the old style MPI only way. @var{MPI}
is the actual data, already padded appropriate for your protocol.
Most RSA based systems however use PKCS#1 padding and so you can use
this S-expression for @var{data}:
@example
(data
(flags pkcs1)
(value @var{block}))
@end example
@noindent
Here, the "flags" list has the "pkcs1" flag which let the function know
that it should provide PKCS#1 block type 2 padding. The actual data to
be encrypted is passed as a string of octets in @var{block}. The
function checks that this data actually can be used with the given key,
does the padding and encrypts it.
If the function could successfully perform the encryption, the return
value will be 0 and a new S-expression with the encrypted result is
allocated and assigned to the variable at the address of @var{r_ciph}.
The caller is responsible to release this value using
@code{gcry_sexp_release}. In case of an error, an error code is
returned and @var{r_ciph} will be set to @code{NULL}.
@noindent
The returned S-expression has this format when used with RSA:
@example
(enc-val
(rsa
(a @var{a-mpi})))
@end example
@noindent
Where @var{a-mpi} is an MPI with the result of the RSA operation. When
using the Elgamal algorithm, the return value will have this format:
@example
(enc-val
(elg
(a @var{a-mpi})
(b @var{b-mpi})))
@end example
@noindent
Where @var{a-mpi} and @var{b-mpi} are MPIs with the result of the
Elgamal encryption operation.
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_pk_encrypt
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_pk_decrypt (@w{gcry_sexp_t *@var{r_plain},} @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{data},} @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{skey}})
Obviously a private key must be provided for decryption. It is expected
as an appropriate S-expression (see above) in @var{skey}. The data to
be decrypted must match the format of the result as returned by
@code{gcry_pk_encrypt}, but should be enlarged with a @code{flags}
element:
@example
(enc-val
(flags)
(elg
(a @var{a-mpi})
(b @var{b-mpi})))
@end example
@noindent
This function does not remove padding from the data by default. To
let Libgcrypt remove padding, give a hint in `flags' telling which
padding method was used when encrypting:
@example
(flags @var{padding-method})
@end example
@noindent
Currently @var{padding-method} is either @code{pkcs1} for PKCS#1 block
type 2 padding, or @code{oaep} for RSA-OAEP padding.
@noindent
The function returns 0 on success or an error code. The variable at the
address of @var{r_plain} will be set to NULL on error or receive the
decrypted value on success. The format of @var{r_plain} is a
simple S-expression part (i.e. not a valid one) with just one MPI if
there was no @code{flags} element in @var{data}; if at least an empty
@code{flags} is passed in @var{data}, the format is:
@example
(value @var{plaintext})
@end example
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_pk_decrypt
Another operation commonly performed using public key cryptography is
signing data. In some sense this is even more important than
encryption because digital signatures are an important instrument for
key management. Libgcrypt supports digital signatures using
2 functions, similar to the encryption functions:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_pk_sign (@w{gcry_sexp_t *@var{r_sig},} @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{data},} @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{skey}})
This function creates a digital signature for @var{data} using the
private key @var{skey} and place it into the variable at the address of
@var{r_sig}. @var{data} may either be the simple old style S-expression
with just one MPI or a modern and more versatile S-expression which
allows to let Libgcrypt handle padding:
@example
(data
(flags pkcs1)
(hash @var{hash-algo} @var{block}))
@end example
@noindent
This example requests to sign the data in @var{block} after applying
PKCS#1 block type 1 style padding. @var{hash-algo} is a string with the
hash algorithm to be encoded into the signature, this may be any hash
algorithm name as supported by Libgcrypt. Most likely, this will be
"sha256" or "sha1". It is obvious that the length of @var{block} must
match the size of that message digests; the function checks that this
and other constraints are valid.
@noindent
If PKCS#1 padding is not required (because the caller does already
provide a padded value), either the old format or better the following
format should be used:
@example
(data
(flags raw)
(value @var{mpi}))
@end example
@noindent
Here, the data to be signed is directly given as an @var{MPI}.
@noindent
The signature is returned as a newly allocated S-expression in
@var{r_sig} using this format for RSA:
@example
(sig-val
(rsa
(s @var{s-mpi})))
@end example
Where @var{s-mpi} is the result of the RSA sign operation. For DSA the
S-expression returned is:
@example
(sig-val
(dsa
(r @var{r-mpi})
(s @var{s-mpi})))
@end example
Where @var{r-mpi} and @var{s-mpi} are the result of the DSA sign
operation. For Elgamal signing (which is slow, yields large numbers
and probably is not as secure as the other algorithms), the same format is
used with "elg" replacing "dsa".
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_pk_sign
@noindent
The operation most commonly used is definitely the verification of a
signature. Libgcrypt provides this function:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_pk_verify (@w{gcry_sexp_t @var{sig}}, @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{data}}, @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{pkey}})
This is used to check whether the signature @var{sig} matches the
@var{data}. The public key @var{pkey} must be provided to perform this
verification. This function is similar in its parameters to
@code{gcry_pk_sign} with the exceptions that the public key is used
instead of the private key and that no signature is created but a
signature, in a format as created by @code{gcry_pk_sign}, is passed to
the function in @var{sig}.
@noindent
The result is 0 for success (i.e. the data matches the signature), or an
error code where the most relevant code is @code{GCRY_ERR_BAD_SIGNATURE}
to indicate that the signature does not match the provided data.
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_pk_verify

@section General public-key related Functions
@noindent
A couple of utility functions are available to retrieve the length of
the key, map algorithm identifiers and perform sanity checks:
@deftypefun {const char *} gcry_pk_algo_name (int @var{algo})
Map the public key algorithm id @var{algo} to a string representation of
the algorithm name. For unknown algorithms this functions returns the
string @code{"?"}. This function should not be used to test for the
availability of an algorithm.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun int gcry_pk_map_name (const char *@var{name})
Map the algorithm @var{name} to a public key algorithm Id. Returns 0 if
the algorithm name is not known.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun int gcry_pk_test_algo (int @var{algo})
Return 0 if the public key algorithm @var{algo} is available for use.
Note that this is implemented as a macro.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {unsigned int} gcry_pk_get_nbits (gcry_sexp_t @var{key})
Return what is commonly referred as the key length for the given
public or private in @var{key}.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {unsigned char *} gcry_pk_get_keygrip (@w{gcry_sexp_t @var{key}}, @w{unsigned char *@var{array}})
Return the so called "keygrip" which is the SHA-1 hash of the public key
parameters expressed in a way depended on the algorithm. @var{array}
must either provide space for 20 bytes or be @code{NULL}. In the latter
case a newly allocated array of that size is returned. On success a
pointer to the newly allocated space or to @var{array} is returned.
@code{NULL} is returned to indicate an error which is most likely an
unknown algorithm or one where a "keygrip" has not yet been defined.
The function accepts public or secret keys in @var{key}.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_pk_testkey (gcry_sexp_t @var{key})
Return zero if the private key @var{key} is `sane', an error code otherwise.
Note that it is not possible to check the `saneness' of a public key.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_pk_algo_info (@w{int @var{algo}}, @w{int @var{what}}, @w{void *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t *@var{nbytes}})
Depending on the value of @var{what} return various information about
the public key algorithm with the id @var{algo}. Note that the
function returns @code{-1} on error and the actual error code must be
retrieved using the function @code{gcry_errno}. The currently defined
values for @var{what} are:
@table @code
@item GCRYCTL_TEST_ALGO:
Return 0 if the specified algorithm is available for use.
@var{buffer} must be @code{NULL}, @var{nbytes} may be passed as
@code{NULL} or point to a variable with the required usage of the
algorithm. This may be 0 for "don't care" or the bit-wise OR of these
flags:
@table @code
@item GCRY_PK_USAGE_SIGN
Algorithm is usable for signing.
@item GCRY_PK_USAGE_ENCR
Algorithm is usable for encryption.
@end table
Unless you need to test for the allowed usage, it is in general better
to use the macro gcry_pk_test_algo instead.
@item GCRYCTL_GET_ALGO_USAGE:
Return the usage flags for the given algorithm. An invalid algorithm
return 0. Disabled algorithms are ignored here because we
want to know whether the algorithm is at all capable of a certain usage.
@item GCRYCTL_GET_ALGO_NPKEY
Return the number of elements the public key for algorithm @var{algo}
consist of. Return 0 for an unknown algorithm.
@item GCRYCTL_GET_ALGO_NSKEY
Return the number of elements the private key for algorithm @var{algo}
consist of. Note that this value is always larger than that of the
public key. Return 0 for an unknown algorithm.
@item GCRYCTL_GET_ALGO_NSIGN
Return the number of elements a signature created with the algorithm
@var{algo} consists of. Return 0 for an unknown algorithm or for an
algorithm not capable of creating signatures.
@item GCRYCTL_GET_ALGO_NENC
Return the number of elements a encrypted message created with the algorithm
@var{algo} consists of. Return 0 for an unknown algorithm or for an
algorithm not capable of encryption.
@end table
@noindent
Please note that parameters not required should be passed as @code{NULL}.
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_pk_algo_info
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_pk_ctl (@w{int @var{cmd}}, @w{void *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t @var{buflen}})
This is a general purpose function to perform certain control
operations. @var{cmd} controls what is to be done. The return value is
0 for success or an error code. Currently supported values for
@var{cmd} are:
@table @code
@item GCRYCTL_DISABLE_ALGO
Disable the algorithm given as an algorithm id in @var{buffer}.
@var{buffer} must point to an @code{int} variable with the algorithm id
and @var{buflen} must have the value @code{sizeof (int)}.
@end table
@end deftypefun
@c end gcry_pk_ctl
@noindent
Libgcrypt also provides a function to generate public key
pairs:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_pk_genkey (@w{gcry_sexp_t *@var{r_key}}, @w{gcry_sexp_t @var{parms}})
This function create a new public key pair using information given in
the S-expression @var{parms} and stores the private and the public key
in one new S-expression at the address given by @var{r_key}. In case of
an error, @var{r_key} is set to @code{NULL}. The return code is 0 for
success or an error code otherwise.
@noindent
Here is an example for @var{parms} to create an 2048 bit RSA key:
@example
(genkey
(rsa
(nbits 4:2048)))
@end example
@noindent
To create an Elgamal key, substitute "elg" for "rsa" and to create a DSA
key use "dsa". Valid ranges for the key length depend on the
algorithms; all commonly used key lengths are supported. Currently
supported parameters are:
@table @code
@item nbits
This is always required to specify the length of the key. The argument
is a string with a number in C-notation. The value should be a multiple
of 8.
@item curve @var{name}
For ECC a named curve may be used instead of giving the number of
requested bits. This allows to request a specific curve to override a
default selection Libgcrypt would have taken if @code{nbits} has been
given. The available names are listed with the description of the ECC
public key parameters.
@item rsa-use-e
This is only used with RSA to give a hint for the public exponent. The
value will be used as a base to test for a usable exponent. Some values
are special:
@table @samp
@item 0
Use a secure and fast value. This is currently the number 41.
@item 1
Use a value as required by some crypto policies. This is currently
the number 65537.
@item 2
Reserved
@item > 2
Use the given value.
@end table
@noindent
If this parameter is not used, Libgcrypt uses for historic reasons
65537.
@item qbits
This is only meanigful for DSA keys. If it is given the DSA key is
generated with a Q parameyer of this size. If it is not given or zero
Q is deduced from NBITS in this way:
@table @samp
@item 512 <= N <= 1024
Q = 160
@item N = 2048
Q = 224
@item N = 3072
Q = 256
@item N = 7680
Q = 384
@item N = 15360
Q = 512
@end table
Note that in this case only the values for N, as given in the table,
are allowed. When specifying Q all values of N in the range 512 to
15680 are valid as long as they are multiples of 8.
@item transient-key
This is only meaningful for RSA, DSA, ECDSA, and ECDH keys. This is a flag
with no value. If given the key is created using a faster and a
somewhat less secure random number generator. This flag may be used for
keys which are only used for a short time or per-message and do not require full
cryptographic strength.
@item domain
This is only meaningful for DLP algorithms. If specified keys are
generated with domain parameters taken from this list. The exact
format of this parameter depends on the actual algorithm. It is
currently only implemented for DSA using this format:
@example
(genkey
(dsa
(domain
(p @var{p-mpi})
(q @var{q-mpi})
(g @var{q-mpi}))))
@end example
@code{nbits} and @code{qbits} may not be specified because they are
derived from the domain parameters.
@item derive-parms
This is currently only implemented for RSA and DSA keys. It is not
allowed to use this together with a @code{domain} specification. If
given, it is used to derive the keys using the given parameters.
If given for an RSA key the X9.31 key generation algorithm is used
even if libgcrypt is not in FIPS mode. If given for a DSA key, the
FIPS 186 algorithm is used even if libgcrypt is not in FIPS mode.
@example
(genkey
(rsa
(nbits 4:1024)
(rsa-use-e 1:3)
(derive-parms
(Xp1 #1A1916DDB29B4EB7EB6732E128#)

@end example
@example
(genkey
(dsa
(nbits 4:1024)
(derive-parms
(seed @var{seed-mpi}))))
@end example
@item use-x931
@cindex X9.31
Force the use of the ANSI X9.31 key generation algorithm instead of
the default algorithm. This flag is only meaningful for RSA and
usually not required. Note that this algorithm is implicitly used if
either @code{derive-parms} is given or Libgcrypt is in FIPS mode.
@item use-fips186
@cindex FIPS 186
Force the use of the FIPS 186 key generation algorithm instead of the
default algorithm. This flag is only meaningful for DSA and usually
not required. Note that this algorithm is implicitly used if either
@code{derive-parms} is given or Libgcrypt is in FIPS mode. As of now
FIPS 186-2 is implemented; after the approval of FIPS 186-3 the code
will be changed to implement 186-3.
@item use-fips186-2
Force the use of the FIPS 186-2 key generation algorithm instead of
the default algorithm. This algorithm is slighlty different from
FIPS 186-3 and allows only 1024 bit keys. This flag is only meaningful
for DSA and only required for FIPS testing backward compatibility.
@end table
@c end table of parameters
@noindent
The key pair is returned in a format depending on the algorithm. Both
private and public keys are returned in one container and may be
accompanied by some miscellaneous information.
@noindent
As an example, here is what the Elgamal key generation returns:
@example
(key-data
(public-key
(elg
(p @var{p-mpi})
(g @var{g-mpi})
(y @var{y-mpi})))
(private-key
(elg
(p @var{p-mpi})
(g @var{g-mpi})
(y @var{y-mpi})
(x @var{x-mpi})))
(misc-key-info
(pm1-factors @var{n1 n2 ... nn}))
@end example
@noindent
As you can see, some of the information is duplicated, but this
provides an easy way to extract either the public or the private key.
Note that the order of the elements is not defined, e.g. the private
key may be stored before the public key. @var{n1 n2 ... nn} is a list
of prime numbers used to composite @var{p-mpi}; this is in general not
a very useful information and only available if the key generation
algorithm provides them.

@chapter Hashing
Libgcrypt provides an easy and consistent to use interface for hashing.
Hashing is buffered and several hash algorithms can be updated at once.
It is possible to compute a MAC using the same routines. The
programming model follows an open/process/close paradigm and is in that
similar to other building blocks provided by Libgcrypt.
For convenience reasons, a few cyclic redundancy check value operations
are also supported.

@item GCRY_MD_NONE
This is not a real algorithm but used by some functions as an error
return value. This constant is guaranteed to have the value @code{0}.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA1
This is the SHA-1 algorithm which yields a message digest of 20 bytes.
Note that SHA-1 begins to show some weaknesses and it is suggested to
fade out its use if strong cryptographic properties are required.
@item GCRY_MD_RMD160
This is the 160 bit version of the RIPE message digest (RIPE-MD-160).
Like SHA-1 it also yields a digest of 20 bytes. This algorithm share a
lot of design properties with SHA-1 and thus it is advisable not to use
it for new protocols.
@item GCRY_MD_MD5
This is the well known MD5 algorithm, which yields a message digest of
16 bytes. Note that the MD5 algorithm has severe weaknesses, for
example it is easy to compute two messages yielding the same hash
(collision attack). The use of this algorithm is only justified for
non-cryptographic application.
@item GCRY_MD_MD4
This is the MD4 algorithm, which yields a message digest of 16 bytes.
This algorithms ha severe weaknesses and should not be used.
@item GCRY_MD_MD2
This is an reserved identifier for MD-2; there is no implementation yet.
This algorithm has severe weaknesses and should not be used.
@item GCRY_MD_TIGER
This is the TIGER/192 algorithm which yields a message digest of 24
bytes. Actually this is a variant of TIGER with a different output
print order as used by GnuPG up to version 1.3.2.
@item GCRY_MD_TIGER1
This is the TIGER variant as used by the NESSIE project. It uses the
most commonly used output print order.
@item GCRY_MD_TIGER2
This is another variant of TIGER with a different padding scheme.
@item GCRY_MD_HAVAL
This is an reserved value for the HAVAL algorithm with 5 passes and 160
bit. It yields a message digest of 20 bytes. Note that there is no
implementation yet available.

This is the SHA-224 algorithm which yields a message digest of 28 bytes.
See Change Notice 1 for FIPS 180-2 for the specification.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA256
This is the SHA-256 algorithm which yields a message digest of 32 bytes.
See FIPS 180-2 for the specification.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA384
This is the SHA-384 algorithm which yields a message digest of 48 bytes.
See FIPS 180-2 for the specification.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA512
This is the SHA-384 algorithm which yields a message digest of 64 bytes.
See FIPS 180-2 for the specification.
@item GCRY_MD_CRC32
This is the ISO 3309 and ITU-T V.42 cyclic redundancy check. It yields
an output of 4 bytes. Note that this is not a hash algorithm in the
cryptographic sense.
@item GCRY_MD_CRC32_RFC1510
This is the above cyclic redundancy check function, as modified by RFC
1510. It yields an output of 4 bytes. Note that this is not a hash
algorithm in the cryptographic sense.
@item GCRY_MD_CRC24_RFC2440
This is the OpenPGP cyclic redundancy check function. It yields an
output of 3 bytes. Note that this is not a hash algorithm in the
cryptographic sense.
@item GCRY_MD_WHIRLPOOL
This is the Whirlpool algorithm which yields a message digest of 64
bytes.

@c end table of hash algorithms
@node Working with hash algorithms
@section Working with hash algorithms
To use most of these function it is necessary to create a context;
this is done using:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_md_open (gcry_md_hd_t *@var{hd}, int @var{algo}, unsigned int @var{flags})
Create a message digest object for algorithm @var{algo}. @var{flags}
may be given as an bitwise OR of constants described below. @var{algo}
may be given as @code{0} if the algorithms to use are later set using
@code{gcry_md_enable}. @var{hd} is guaranteed to either receive a valid
handle or NULL.
For a list of supported algorithms, see @xref{Available hash
algorithms}.
The flags allowed for @var{mode} are:
@c begin table of hash flags
@table @code
@item GCRY_MD_FLAG_SECURE
Allocate all buffers and the resulting digest in "secure memory". Use
this is the hashed data is highly confidential.
@item GCRY_MD_FLAG_HMAC
@cindex HMAC
Turn the algorithm into a HMAC message authentication algorithm. This
only works if just one algorithm is enabled for the handle. Note that
the function @code{gcry_md_setkey} must be used to set the MAC key.
The size of the MAC is equal to the message digest of the underlying
hash algorithm. If you want CBC message authentication codes based on
a cipher, see @xref{Working with cipher handles}.
@end table
@c begin table of hash flags
You may use the function @code{gcry_md_is_enabled} to later check
whether an algorithm has been enabled.
@end deftypefun
@c end function gcry_md_open
If you want to calculate several hash algorithms at the same time, you
have to use the following function right after the @code{gcry_md_open}:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_md_enable (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h}, int @var{algo})
Add the message digest algorithm @var{algo} to the digest object
described by handle @var{h}. Duplicated enabling of algorithms is
detected and ignored.
@end deftypefun
If the flag @code{GCRY_MD_FLAG_HMAC} was used, the key for the MAC must
be set using the function:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_md_setkey (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h}, const void *@var{key}, size_t @var{keylen})
For use with the HMAC feature, set the MAC key to the value of
@var{key} of length @var{keylen} bytes. There is no restriction on
the length of the key.
@end deftypefun
After you are done with the hash calculation, you should release the
resources by using:
@deftypefun void gcry_md_close (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h})
Release all resources of hash context @var{h}. @var{h} should not be
used after a call to this function. A @code{NULL} passed as @var{h} is
ignored. The function also zeroises all sensitive information
associated with this handle.
@end deftypefun
Often you have to do several hash operations using the same algorithm.
To avoid the overhead of creating and releasing context, a reset function
is provided:
@deftypefun void gcry_md_reset (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h})
Reset the current context to its initial state. This is effectively
identical to a close followed by an open and enabling all currently
active algorithms.
@end deftypefun
Often it is necessary to start hashing some data and then continue to
hash different data. To avoid hashing the same data several times (which
might not even be possible if the data is received from a pipe), a
snapshot of the current hash context can be taken and turned into a new
context:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_md_copy (gcry_md_hd_t *@var{handle_dst}, gcry_md_hd_t @var{handle_src})
Create a new digest object as an exact copy of the object described by
handle @var{handle_src} and store it in @var{handle_dst}. The context
is not reset and you can continue to hash data using this context and
independently using the original context.
@end deftypefun
Now that we have prepared everything to calculate hashes, it is time to
see how it is actually done. There are two ways for this, one to
update the hash with a block of memory and one macro to update the hash
by just one character. Both methods can be used on the same hash context.
@deftypefun void gcry_md_write (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h}, const void *@var{buffer}, size_t @var{length})
Pass @var{length} bytes of the data in @var{buffer} to the digest object
with handle @var{h} to update the digest values. This
function should be used for large blocks of data.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun void gcry_md_putc (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h}, int @var{c})
Pass the byte in @var{c} to the digest object with handle @var{h} to
update the digest value. This is an efficient function, implemented as
a macro to buffer the data before an actual update.
@end deftypefun
The semantics of the hash functions do not provide for reading out intermediate
message digests because the calculation must be finalized first. This
finalization may for example include the number of bytes hashed in the
message digest or some padding.
@deftypefun void gcry_md_final (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h})
Finalize the message digest calculation. This is not really needed
because @code{gcry_md_read} does this implicitly. After this has been
done no further updates (by means of @code{gcry_md_write} or
@code{gcry_md_putc} are allowed. Only the first call to this function
has an effect. It is implemented as a macro.
@end deftypefun
The way to read out the calculated message digest is by using the
function:
@deftypefun {unsigned char *} gcry_md_read (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h}, int @var{algo})
@code{gcry_md_read} returns the message digest after finalizing the
calculation. This function may be used as often as required but it will
always return the same value for one handle. The returned message digest
is allocated within the message context and therefore valid until the
handle is released or reseted (using @code{gcry_md_close} or
@code{gcry_md_reset}. @var{algo} may be given as 0 to return the only
enabled message digest or it may specify one of the enabled algorithms.
The function does return @code{NULL} if the requested algorithm has not
been enabled.
@end deftypefun
Because it is often necessary to get the message digest of one block of
memory, a fast convenience function is available for this task:
@deftypefun void gcry_md_hash_buffer (int @var{algo}, void *@var{digest}, const void *@var{buffer}, size_t @var{length});
@code{gcry_md_hash_buffer} is a shortcut function to calculate a message
digest of a buffer. This function does not require a context and
immediately returns the message digest of the @var{length} bytes at
@var{buffer}. @var{digest} must be allocated by the caller, large
enough to hold the message digest yielded by the the specified algorithm
@var{algo}. This required size may be obtained by using the function
@code{gcry_md_get_algo_dlen}.
Note that this function will abort the process if an unavailable
algorithm is used.
@end deftypefun
@c ***********************************
@c ***** MD info functions ***********
@c ***********************************
Hash algorithms are identified by internal algorithm numbers (see
@code{gcry_md_open} for a list). However, in most applications they are
used by names, so two functions are available to map between string
representations and hash algorithm identifiers.
@deftypefun {const char *} gcry_md_algo_name (int @var{algo})
Map the digest algorithm id @var{algo} to a string representation of the
algorithm name. For unknown algorithms this function returns the
string @code{"?"}. This function should not be used to test for the
availability of an algorithm.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun int gcry_md_map_name (const char *@var{name})
Map the algorithm with @var{name} to a digest algorithm identifier.
Returns 0 if the algorithm name is not known. Names representing
@acronym{ASN.1} object identifiers are recognized if the @acronym{IETF}
dotted format is used and the OID is prefixed with either "@code{oid.}"
or "@code{OID.}". For a list of supported OIDs, see the source code at
@file{cipher/md.c}. This function should not be used to test for the
availability of an algorithm.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_md_get_asnoid (int @var{algo}, void *@var{buffer}, size_t *@var{length})
Return an DER encoded ASN.1 OID for the algorithm @var{algo} in the
user allocated @var{buffer}. @var{length} must point to variable with
the available size of @var{buffer} and receives after return the
actual size of the returned OID. The returned error code may be
@code{GPG_ERR_TOO_SHORT} if the provided buffer is to short to receive
the OID; it is possible to call the function with @code{NULL} for
@var{buffer} to have it only return the required size. The function
returns 0 on success.
@end deftypefun
To test whether an algorithm is actually available for use, the
following macro should be used:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_md_test_algo (int @var{algo})
The macro returns 0 if the algorithm @var{algo} is available for use.
@end deftypefun
If the length of a message digest is not known, it can be retrieved
using the following function:
@deftypefun {unsigned int} gcry_md_get_algo_dlen (int @var{algo})
Retrieve the length in bytes of the digest yielded by algorithm
@var{algo}. This is often used prior to @code{gcry_md_read} to allocate
sufficient memory for the digest.
@end deftypefun
In some situations it might be hard to remember the algorithm used for
the ongoing hashing. The following function might be used to get that
information:
@deftypefun int gcry_md_get_algo (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h})
Retrieve the algorithm used with the handle @var{h}. Note that this
does not work reliable if more than one algorithm is enabled in @var{h}.
@end deftypefun
The following macro might also be useful:
@deftypefun int gcry_md_is_secure (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h})
This function returns true when the digest object @var{h} is allocated
in "secure memory"; i.e. @var{h} was created with the
@code{GCRY_MD_FLAG_SECURE}.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun int gcry_md_is_enabled (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h}, int @var{algo})
This function returns true when the algorithm @var{algo} has been
enabled for the digest object @var{h}.
@end deftypefun
Tracking bugs related to hashing is often a cumbersome task which
requires to add a lot of printf statements into the code.
Libgcrypt provides an easy way to avoid this. The actual data
hashed can be written to files on request.
@deftypefun void gcry_md_debug (gcry_md_hd_t @var{h}, const char *@var{suffix})
Enable debugging for the digest object with handle @var{h}. This
creates create files named @file{dbgmd-<n>.<string>} while doing the
actual hashing. @var{suffix} is the string part in the filename. The
number is a counter incremented for each new hashing. The data in the
file is the raw data as passed to @code{gcry_md_write} or
@code{gcry_md_putc}. If @code{NULL} is used for @var{suffix}, the
debugging is stopped and the file closed. This is only rarely required
because @code{gcry_md_close} implicitly stops debugging.

@node Key Derivation
@chapter Key Derivation
@acronym{Libgcypt} provides a general purpose function to derive keys
from strings.
@deftypefun gpg_error_t gcry_kdf_derive ( @
@w{const void *@var{passphrase}}, @w{size_t @var{passphraselen}}, @
@w{int @var{algo}}, @w{int @var{subalgo}}, @
@w{const void *@var{salt}}, @w{size_t @var{saltlen}}, @
@w{unsigned long @var{iterations}}, @
@w{size_t @var{keysize}}, @w{void *@var{keybuffer}} )
Derive a key from a passphrase. @var{keysize} gives the requested
size of the keys in octets. @var{keybuffer} is a caller provided
buffer filled on success with the derived key. The input passphrase
is taken from @var{passphrase} which is an arbitrary memory buffer of
@var{passphraselen} octets. @var{algo} specifies the KDF algorithm to
use; see below. @var{subalgo} specifies an algorithm used internally
by the KDF algorithms; this is usually a hash algorithm but certain
KDF algorithms may use it differently. @var{salt} is a salt of length
@var{saltlen} octets, as needed by most KDF algorithms.
@var{iterations} is a positive integer parameter to most KDFs.
@noindent
On success 0 is returned; on failure an error code.
@noindent
Currently supported KDFs (parameter @var{algo}):
@table @code
@item GCRY_KDF_SIMPLE_S2K
The OpenPGP simple S2K algorithm (cf. RFC4880). Its use is strongly
deprecated. @var{salt} and @var{iterations} are not needed and may be
passed as @code{NULL}/@code{0}.
@item GCRY_KDF_SALTED_S2K
The OpenPGP salted S2K algorithm (cf. RFC4880). Usually not used.
@var{iterations} is not needed and may be passed as @code{0}. @var{saltlen}
must be given as 8.
@item GCRY_KDF_ITERSALTED_S2K
The OpenPGP iterated+salted S2K algorithm (cf. RFC4880). This is the
default for most OpenPGP applications. @var{saltlen} must be given as
8. Note that OpenPGP defines a special encoding of the
@var{iterations}; however this function takes the plain decoded
iteration count.

@chapter S-expressions
S-expressions are used by the public key functions to pass complex data
structures around. These LISP like objects are used by some
cryptographic protocols (cf. RFC-2692) and Libgcrypt provides functions
to parse and construct them. For detailed information, see
@cite{Ron Rivest, code and description of S-expressions,

@section Data types for S-expressions
@deftp {Data type} gcry_sexp_t
The @code{gcry_sexp_t} type describes an object with the Libgcrypt internal
representation of an S-expression.
@end deftp
@node Working with S-expressions
@section Working with S-expressions
@noindent
There are several functions to create an Libgcrypt S-expression object
from its external representation or from a string template. There is
also a function to convert the internal representation back into one of
the external formats:
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_sexp_new (@w{gcry_sexp_t *@var{r_sexp}}, @w{const void *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t @var{length}}, @w{int @var{autodetect}})
This is the generic function to create an new S-expression object from
its external representation in @var{buffer} of @var{length} bytes. On
success the result is stored at the address given by @var{r_sexp}.
With @var{autodetect} set to 0, the data in @var{buffer} is expected to
be in canonized format, with @var{autodetect} set to 1 the parses any of
the defined external formats. If @var{buffer} does not hold a valid
S-expression an error code is returned and @var{r_sexp} set to
@code{NULL}.
Note that the caller is responsible for releasing the newly allocated
S-expression using @code{gcry_sexp_release}.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_sexp_create (@w{gcry_sexp_t *@var{r_sexp}}, @w{void *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t @var{length}}, @w{int @var{autodetect}}, @w{void (*@var{freefnc})(void*)})
This function is identical to @code{gcry_sexp_new} but has an extra
argument @var{freefnc}, which, when not set to @code{NULL}, is expected
to be a function to release the @var{buffer}; most likely the standard
@code{free} function is used for this argument. This has the effect of
transferring the ownership of @var{buffer} to the created object in
@var{r_sexp}. The advantage of using this function is that Libgcrypt
might decide to directly use the provided buffer and thus avoid extra
copying.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_sexp_sscan (@w{gcry_sexp_t *@var{r_sexp}}, @w{size_t *@var{erroff}}, @w{const char *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t @var{length}})
This is another variant of the above functions. It behaves nearly
identical but provides an @var{erroff} argument which will receive the
offset into the buffer where the parsing stopped on error.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_sexp_build (@w{gcry_sexp_t *@var{r_sexp}}, @w{size_t *@var{erroff}}, @w{const char *@var{format}, ...})
This function creates an internal S-expression from the string template
@var{format} and stores it at the address of @var{r_sexp}. If there is a
parsing error, the function returns an appropriate error code and stores
the offset into @var{format} where the parsing stopped in @var{erroff}.
The function supports a couple of printf-like formatting characters and
expects arguments for some of these escape sequences right after
@var{format}. The following format characters are defined:
@table @samp
@item %m
The next argument is expected to be of type @code{gcry_mpi_t} and a copy of
its value is inserted into the resulting S-expression. The MPI is
stored as a signed integer.
@item %M
The next argument is expected to be of type @code{gcry_mpi_t} and a copy of
its value is inserted into the resulting S-expression. The MPI is
stored as an unsigned integer.
@item %s
The next argument is expected to be of type @code{char *} and that
string is inserted into the resulting S-expression.
@item %d
The next argument is expected to be of type @code{int} and its value is
inserted into the resulting S-expression.
@item %u
The next argument is expected to be of type @code{unsigned int} and
its value is inserted into the resulting S-expression.
@item %b
The next argument is expected to be of type @code{int} directly
followed by an argument of type @code{char *}. This represents a
buffer of given length to be inserted into the resulting S-expression.
@item %S
The next argument is expected to be of type @code{gcry_sexp_t} and a
copy of that S-expression is embedded in the resulting S-expression.
The argument needs to be a regular S-expression, starting with a
parenthesis.
@end table
@noindent
No other format characters are defined and would return an error. Note
that the format character @samp{%%} does not exists, because a percent
sign is not a valid character in an S-expression.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun void gcry_sexp_release (@w{gcry_sexp_t @var{sexp}})
Release the S-expression object @var{sexp}. If the S-expression is
stored in secure memory it explicitly zeroises that memory; note that
this is done in addition to the zeroisation always done when freeing
secure memory.
@end deftypefun
@noindent
The next 2 functions are used to convert the internal representation
back into a regular external S-expression format and to show the
structure for debugging.
@deftypefun size_t gcry_sexp_sprint (@w{gcry_sexp_t @var{sexp}}, @w{int @var{mode}}, @w{char *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t @var{maxlength}})
Copies the S-expression object @var{sexp} into @var{buffer} using the
format specified in @var{mode}. @var{maxlength} must be set to the
allocated length of @var{buffer}. The function returns the actual
length of valid bytes put into @var{buffer} or 0 if the provided buffer
is too short. Passing @code{NULL} for @var{buffer} returns the required
length for @var{buffer}. For convenience reasons an extra byte with
value 0 is appended to the buffer.
@noindent
The following formats are supported:
@table @code
@item GCRYSEXP_FMT_DEFAULT
Returns a convenient external S-expression representation.
@item GCRYSEXP_FMT_CANON
Return the S-expression in canonical format.
@item GCRYSEXP_FMT_BASE64
Not currently supported.
@item GCRYSEXP_FMT_ADVANCED
Returns the S-expression in advanced format.
@end table
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun void gcry_sexp_dump (@w{gcry_sexp_t @var{sexp}})
Dumps @var{sexp} in a format suitable for debugging to Libgcrypt's
logging stream.
@end deftypefun
@noindent
Often canonical encoding is used in the external representation. The
following function can be used to check for valid encoding and to learn
the length of the S-expression"
@deftypefun size_t gcry_sexp_canon_len (@w{const unsigned char *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t @var{length}}, @w{size_t *@var{erroff}}, @w{int *@var{errcode}})
Scan the canonical encoded @var{buffer} with implicit length values and
return the actual length this S-expression uses. For a valid S-expression
it should never return 0. If @var{length} is not 0, the maximum
length to scan is given; this can be used for syntax checks of
data passed from outside. @var{errcode} and @var{erroff} may both be
passed as @code{NULL}.
@end deftypefun
@noindent
There are functions to parse S-expressions and retrieve elements:
@deftypefun gcry_sexp_t gcry_sexp_find_token (@w{const gcry_sexp_t @var{list}}, @w{const char *@var{token}}, @w{size_t @var{toklen}})
Scan the S-expression for a sublist with a type (the car of the list)
matching the string @var{token}. If @var{toklen} is not 0, the token is
assumed to be raw memory of this length. The function returns a newly
allocated S-expression consisting of the found sublist or @code{NULL}
when not found.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun int gcry_sexp_length (@w{const gcry_sexp_t @var{list}})
Return the length of the @var{list}. For a valid S-expression this
should be at least 1.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_sexp_t gcry_sexp_nth (@w{const gcry_sexp_t @var{list}}, @w{int @var{number}})
Create and return a new S-expression from the element with index @var{number} in
@var{list}. Note that the first element has the index 0. If there is
no such element, @code{NULL} is returned.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_sexp_t gcry_sexp_car (@w{const gcry_sexp_t @var{list}})
Create and return a new S-expression from the first element in
@var{list}; this called the "type" and should always exist and be a
string. @code{NULL} is returned in case of a problem.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_sexp_t gcry_sexp_cdr (@w{const gcry_sexp_t @var{list}})
Create and return a new list form all elements except for the first one.
Note that this function may return an invalid S-expression because it
is not guaranteed, that the type exists and is a string. However, for
parsing a complex S-expression it might be useful for intermediate
lists. Returns @code{NULL} on error.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {const char *} gcry_sexp_nth_data (@w{const gcry_sexp_t @var{list}}, @w{int @var{number}}, @w{size_t *@var{datalen}})
This function is used to get data from a @var{list}. A pointer to the
actual data with index @var{number} is returned and the length of this
data will be stored to @var{datalen}. If there is no data at the given
index or the index represents another list, @code{NULL} is returned.
@strong{Caution:} The returned pointer is valid as long as @var{list} is
not modified or released.
@noindent
Here is an example on how to extract and print the surname (Meier) from
the S-expression @samp{(Name Otto Meier (address Burgplatz 3))}:
@example
size_t len;
const char *name;
name = gcry_sexp_nth_data (list, 2, &len);
printf ("my name is %.*s\n", (int)len, name);
@end example
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {char *} gcry_sexp_nth_string (@w{gcry_sexp_t @var{list}}, @w{int @var{number}})
This function is used to get and convert data from a @var{list}. The
data is assumed to be a Nul terminated string. The caller must
release this returned value using @code{gcry_free}. If there is
no data at the given index, the index represents a list or the value
can't be converted to a string, @code{NULL} is returned.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_mpi_t gcry_sexp_nth_mpi (@w{gcry_sexp_t @var{list}}, @w{int @var{number}}, @w{int @var{mpifmt}})
This function is used to get and convert data from a @var{list}. This
data is assumed to be an MPI stored in the format described by
@var{mpifmt} and returned as a standard Libgcrypt MPI. The caller must
release this returned value using @code{gcry_mpi_release}. If there is
no data at the given index, the index represents a list or the value
can't be converted to an MPI, @code{NULL} is returned. If you use
this function to parse results of a public key function, you most
likely want to use @code{GCRYMPI_FMT_USG}.

Public key cryptography is based on mathematics with large numbers. To
implement the public key functions, a library for handling these large
numbers is required. Because of the general usefulness of such a
library, its interface is exposed by Libgcrypt.
In the context of Libgcrypt and in most other applications, these large
numbers are called MPIs (multi-precision-integers).
@node Data types
@section Data types
@deftp {Data type} {gcry_mpi_t}
This type represents an object to hold an MPI.
@end deftp
@node Basic functions
@section Basic functions
@noindent
To work with MPIs, storage must be allocated and released for the
numbers. This can be done with one of these functions:
@deftypefun gcry_mpi_t gcry_mpi_new (@w{unsigned int @var{nbits}})
Allocate a new MPI object, initialize it to 0 and initially allocate
enough memory for a number of at least @var{nbits}. This pre-allocation is
only a small performance issue and not actually necessary because
Libgcrypt automatically re-allocates the required memory.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_mpi_t gcry_mpi_snew (@w{unsigned int @var{nbits}})
This is identical to @code{gcry_mpi_new} but allocates the MPI in the so
called "secure memory" which in turn will take care that all derived
values will also be stored in this "secure memory". Use this for highly
confidential data like private key parameters.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_mpi_t gcry_mpi_copy (@w{const gcry_mpi_t @var{a}})
Create a new MPI as the exact copy of @var{a}.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun void gcry_mpi_release (@w{gcry_mpi_t @var{a}})
Release the MPI @var{a} and free all associated resources. Passing
@code{NULL} is allowed and ignored. When a MPI stored in the "secure
memory" is released, that memory gets wiped out immediately.
@end deftypefun
@noindent
The simplest operations are used to assign a new value to an MPI:
@deftypefun gcry_mpi_t gcry_mpi_set (@w{gcry_mpi_t @var{w}}, @w{const gcry_mpi_t @var{u}})
Assign the value of @var{u} to @var{w} and return @var{w}. If
@code{NULL} is passed for @var{w}, a new MPI is allocated, set to the
value of @var{u} and returned.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_mpi_t gcry_mpi_set_ui (@w{gcry_mpi_t @var{w}}, @w{unsigned long @var{u}})
Assign the value of @var{u} to @var{w} and return @var{w}. If
@code{NULL} is passed for @var{w}, a new MPI is allocated, set to the
value of @var{u} and returned. This function takes an @code{unsigned
int} as type for @var{u} and thus it is only possible to set @var{w} to
small values (usually up to the word size of the CPU).
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun void gcry_mpi_swap (@w{gcry_mpi_t @var{a}}, @w{gcry_mpi_t @var{b}})
Swap the values of @var{a} and @var{b}.
@end deftypefun
@node MPI formats
@section MPI formats
@noindent
The following functions are used to convert between an external
representation of an MPI and the internal one of Libgcrypt.
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_mpi_scan (@w{gcry_mpi_t *@var{r_mpi}}, @w{enum gcry_mpi_format @var{format}}, @w{const unsigned char *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t @var{buflen}}, @w{size_t *@var{nscanned}})
Convert the external representation of an integer stored in @var{buffer}
with a length of @var{buflen} into a newly created MPI returned which
will be stored at the address of @var{r_mpi}. For certain formats the
length argument is not required and should be passed as @code{0}. After a
successful operation the variable @var{nscanned} receives the number of
bytes actually scanned unless @var{nscanned} was given as
@code{NULL}. @var{format} describes the format of the MPI as stored in
@var{buffer}:
@table @code
@item GCRYMPI_FMT_STD
2-complement stored without a length header.
@item GCRYMPI_FMT_PGP
As used by OpenPGP (only defined as unsigned). This is basically
@code{GCRYMPI_FMT_STD} with a 2 byte big endian length header.
@item GCRYMPI_FMT_SSH
As used in the Secure Shell protocol. This is @code{GCRYMPI_FMT_STD}
with a 4 byte big endian header.
@item GCRYMPI_FMT_HEX
Stored as a C style string with each byte of the MPI encoded as 2 hex
digits. When using this format, @var{buflen} must be zero.
@item GCRYMPI_FMT_USG
Simple unsigned integer.
@end table
@noindent
Note that all of the above formats store the integer in big-endian
format (MSB first).
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_mpi_print (@w{enum gcry_mpi_format @var{format}}, @w{unsigned char *@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t @var{buflen}}, @w{size_t *@var{nwritten}}, @w{const gcry_mpi_t @var{a}})
Convert the MPI @var{a} into an external representation described by
@var{format} (see above) and store it in the provided @var{buffer}
which has a usable length of at least the @var{buflen} bytes. If
@var{nwritten} is not NULL, it will receive the number of bytes
actually stored in @var{buffer} after a successful operation.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun gcry_error_t gcry_mpi_aprint (@w{enum gcry_mpi_format @var{format}}, @w{unsigned char **@var{buffer}}, @w{size_t *@var{nbytes}}, @w{const gcry_mpi_t @var{a}})
Convert the MPI @var{a} into an external representation described by
@var{format} (see above) and store it in a newly allocated buffer which
address will be stored in the variable @var{buffer} points to. The
number of bytes stored in this buffer will be stored in the variable
@var{nbytes} points to, unless @var{nbytes} is @code{NULL}.
@end deftypefun
@deftypefun void gcry_mpi_dump (@w{const gcry_mpi_t @var{a}})
Dump the value of @var{a} in a format suitable for debugging to

space or linefeed will be printed. It is okay to pass @code{NULL} for
@var{a}.

@chapter Architecture
This chapter describes the internal architecture of Libgcrypt.
Libgcrypt is a function library written in ISO C-90. Any compliant
compiler should be able to build Libgcrypt as long as the target is
either a POSIX platform or compatible to the API used by Windows NT.
Provisions have been take so that the library can be directly used from
C++ applications; however building with a C++ compiler is not supported.
Building Libgcrypt is done by using the common @code{./configure && make}
approach. The configure command is included in the source distribution
and as a portable shell script it works on any Unix-alike system. The
result of running the configure script are a C header file
(@file{config.h}), customized Makefiles, the setup of symbolic links and
a few other things. After that the make tool builds and optionally
installs the library and the documentation. See the files
@file{INSTALL} and @file{README} in the source distribution on how to do
this.
Libgcrypt is developed using a Subversion@footnote{A version control
system available for many platforms} repository. Although all released
versions are tagged in this repository, they should not be used to build
production versions of Libgcrypt. Instead released tarballs should be
used. These tarballs are available from several places with the master
copy at @indicateurl{ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgcrypt/}.
Announcements of new releases are posted to the
@indicateurl{gnupg-announce@@gnupg.org} mailing list@footnote{See
@url{http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/mailing-lists.en.html} for
details.}.
@float Figure,fig:subsystems
@caption{Libgcrypt subsystems}
@center @image{libgcrypt-modules, 150mm,,Libgcrypt subsystems}
@end float
Libgcrypt consists of several subsystems (@pxref{fig:subsystems}) and
all these subsystems provide a public API; this includes the helper
subsystems like the one for S-expressions. The API style depends on the
subsystem; in general an open-use-close approach is implemented. The
open returns a handle to a context used for all further operations on
this handle, several functions may then be used on this handle and a
final close function releases all resources associated with the handle.

@end menu
@node Public-Key Subsystem Architecture
@section Public-Key Architecture
Because public key cryptography is almost always used to process small
amounts of data (hash values or session keys), the interface is not
implemented using the open-use-close paradigm, but with single
self-contained functions. Due to the wide variety of parameters
required by different algorithms S-expressions, as flexible way to
convey these parameters, are used. There is a set of helper functions
to work with these S-expressions.
@c see @xref{S-expression Subsystem Architecture}.
Aside of functions to register new algorithms, map algorithms names to
algorithms identifiers and to lookup properties of a key, the
following main functions are available:
@table @code
@item gcry_pk_encrypt
Encrypt data using a public key.
@item gcry_pk_decrypt
Decrypt data using a private key.
@item gcry_pk_sign
Sign data using a private key.
@item gcry_pk_verify
Verify that a signature matches the data.
@item gcry_pk_testkey
Perform a consistency over a public or private key.
@item gcry_pk_genkey
Create a new public/private key pair.
@end table
All these functions
lookup the module implementing the algorithm and pass the actual work
to that module. The parsing of the S-expression input and the
construction of S-expression for the return values is done by the high
level code (@file{cipher/pubkey.c}). Thus the internal interface
between the algorithm modules and the high level functions passes data
in a custom format.
By default Libgcrypt uses a blinding technique for RSA decryption to
mitigate real world timing attacks over a network: Instead of using
the RSA decryption directly, a blinded value @math{y = x r^{e} \bmod n}
is decrypted and the unblinded value @math{x' = y' r^{-1} \bmod n}
returned. The blinding value @math{r} is a random value with the size
of the modulus @math{n} and generated with @code{GCRY_WEAK_RANDOM}
random level.
@cindex X9.31
@cindex FIPS 186
The algorithm used for RSA and DSA key generation depends on whether
Libgcrypt is operated in standard or in FIPS mode. In standard mode
an algorithm based on the Lim-Lee prime number generator is used. In
FIPS mode RSA keys are generated as specified in ANSI X9.31 (1998) and
DSA keys as specified in FIPS 186-2.
@node Symmetric Encryption Subsystem Architecture
@section Symmetric Encryption Subsystem Architecture
The interface to work with symmetric encryption algorithms is made up
of functions from the @code{gcry_cipher_} name space. The
implementation follows the open-use-close paradigm and uses registered
algorithm modules for the actual work. Unless a module implements
optimized cipher mode implementations, the high level code
(@file{cipher/cipher.c}) implements the modes and calls the core
algorithm functions to process each block.
The most important functions are:
@table @code
@item gcry_cipher_open
Create a new instance to encrypt or decrypt using a specified
algorithm and mode.
@item gcry_cipher_close
Release an instance.
@item gcry_cipher_setkey
Set a key to be used for encryption or decryption.
@item gcry_cipher_setiv
Set an initialization vector to be used for encryption or decryption.
@item gcry_cipher_encrypt
@itemx gcry_cipher_decrypt
Encrypt or decrypt data. These functions may be called with arbitrary
amounts of data and as often as needed to encrypt or decrypt all data.
@end table
There are also functions to query properties of algorithms or context,
like block length, key length, map names or to enable features like
padding methods.
@node Hashing and MACing Subsystem Architecture
@section Hashing and MACing Subsystem Architecture
The interface to work with message digests and CRC algorithms is made
up of functions from the @code{gcry_md_} name space. The
implementation follows the open-use-close paradigm and uses registered
algorithm modules for the actual work. Although CRC algorithms are
not considered cryptographic hash algorithms, they share enough
properties so that it makes sense to handle them in the same way.
It is possible to use several algorithms at once with one context and
thus compute them all on the same data.
The most important functions are:
@table @code
@item gcry_md_open
Create a new message digest instance and optionally enable one
algorithm. A flag may be used to turn the message digest algorithm
into a HMAC algorithm.
@item gcry_md_enable
Enable an additional algorithm for the instance.
@item gcry_md_setkey
Set the key for the MAC.
@item gcry_md_write
Pass more data for computing the message digest to an instance.
@item gcry_md_putc
Buffered version of @code{gcry_md_write} implemented as a macro.
@item gcry_md_read
Finalize the computation of the message digest or HMAC and return the
result.
@item gcry_md_close
Release an instance
@item gcry_md_hash_buffer
Convenience function to directly compute a message digest over a
memory buffer without the need to create an instance first.
@end table
There are also functions to query properties of algorithms or the
instance, like enabled algorithms, digest length, map algorithm names.
it is also possible to reset an instance or to copy the current state
of an instance at any time. Debug functions to write the hashed data
to files are available as well.
@node Multi-Precision-Integer Subsystem Architecture
@section Multi-Precision-Integer Subsystem Architecture
The implementation of Libgcrypt's big integer computation code is
based on an old release of GNU Multi-Precision Library (GMP). The
decision not to use the GMP library directly was due to stalled
development at that time and due to security requirements which could
not be provided by the code in GMP. As GMP does, Libgcrypt provides
high performance assembler implementations of low level code for
several CPUS to gain much better performance than with a generic C
implementation.
@noindent
Major features of Libgcrypt's multi-precision-integer code compared to
GMP are:
@itemize
@item
Avoidance of stack based allocations to allow protection against
swapping out of sensitive data and for easy zeroing of sensitive
intermediate results.
@item
Optional use of secure memory and tracking of its use so that results
are also put into secure memory.
@item
MPIs are identified by a handle (implemented as a pointer) to give
better control over allocations and to augment them with extra
properties like opaque data.
@item
Removal of unnecessary code to reduce complexity.
@item
Functions specialized for public key cryptography.
@end itemize
@node Prime-Number-Generator Subsystem Architecture
@section Prime-Number-Generator Subsystem Architecture
Libgcrypt provides an interface to its prime number generator. These
functions make use of the internal prime number generator which is
required for the generation for public key key pairs. The plain prime
checking function is exported as well.
The generation of random prime numbers is based on the Lim and Lee
algorithm to create practically save primes.@footnote{Chae Hoon Lim
and Pil Joong Lee. A key recovery attack on discrete log-based shemes
using a prime order subgroup. In Burton S. Kaliski Jr., editor,
Advances in Cryptology: Crypto '97, pages 249­-263, Berlin /
Heidelberg / New York, 1997. Springer-Verlag. Described on page 260.}
This algorithm creates a pool of smaller primes, select a few of them
to create candidate primes of the form @math{2 * p_0 * p_1 * ... * p_n
+ 1}, tests the candidate for primality and permutates the pool until
a prime has been found. It is possible to clamp one of the small
primes to a certain size to help DSA style algorithms. Because most
of the small primes in the pool are not used for the resulting prime
number, they are saved for later use (see @code{save_pool_prime} and
@code{get_pool_prime} in @file{cipher/primegen.c}). The prime
generator optionally supports the finding of an appropriate generator.
@noindent
The primality test works in three steps:
@enumerate
@item
The standard sieve algorithm using the primes up to 4999 is used as a
quick first check.
@item
A Fermat test filters out almost all non-primes.
@item
A 5 round Rabin-Miller test is finally used. The first round uses a
witness of 2, whereas the next rounds use a random witness.
@end enumerate
To support the generation of RSA and DSA keys in FIPS mode according
to X9.31 and FIPS 186-2, Libgcrypt implements two additional prime
generation functions: @code{_gcry_derive_x931_prime} and
@code{_gcry_generate_fips186_2_prime}. These functions are internal
and not available through the public API.
@node Random-Number Subsystem Architecture
@section Random-Number Subsystem Architecture
Libgcrypt provides 3 levels or random quality: The level
@code{GCRY_VERY_STRONG_RANDOM} usually used for key generation, the
level @code{GCRY_STRONG_RANDOM} for all other strong random
requirements and the function @code{gcry_create_nonce} which is used
for weaker usages like nonces. There is also a level
@code{GCRY_WEAK_RANDOM} which in general maps to
@code{GCRY_STRONG_RANDOM} except when used with the function
@code{gcry_mpi_randomize}, where it randomizes an
multi-precision-integer using the @code{gcry_create_nonce} function.
@noindent
There are two distinct random generators available:
@itemize
@item
The Continuously Seeded Pseudo Random Number Generator (CSPRNG), which
is based on the classic GnuPG derived big pool implementation.
Implemented in @code{random/random-csprng.c} and used by default.
@item
A FIPS approved ANSI X9.31 PRNG using AES with a 128 bit key. Implemented in
@code{random/random-fips.c} and used if Libgcrypt is in FIPS mode.
@end itemize
@noindent
Both generators make use of so-called entropy gathering modules:
@table @asis
@item rndlinux
Uses the operating system provided
@file{/dev/random} and @file{/dev/urandom} devices.
@item rndunix
Runs several operating system commands to collect entropy from sources
like virtual machine and process statistics. It is a kind of
poor-man's @code{/dev/random} implementation. It is not available in
FIPS mode.
@item rndegd
Uses the operating system provided Entropy Gathering Daemon (EGD).
The EGD basically uses the same algorithms as rndunix does. However
as a system daemon it keeps on running and thus can serve several
processes requiring entropy input and does not waste collected entropy
if the application does not need all the collected entropy. It is not
available in FIPS mode.
@item rndw32
Targeted for the Microsoft Windows OS. It uses certain properties of
that system and is the only gathering module available for that OS.
@item rndhw
Extra module to collect additional entropy by utilizing a hardware
random number generator. As of now the only supported hardware RNG is
the Padlock engine of VIA (Centaur) CPUs. It is not available in FIPS
mode.

@node CSPRNG Description
@subsection Description of the CSPRNG
This random number generator is loosely modelled after the one
described in Peter Gutmann's paper: "Software Generation of
Practically Strong Random Numbers".@footnote{Also described in chapter
6 of his book "Cryptographic Security Architecture", New York, 2004,
ISBN 0-387-95387-6.}
A pool of 600 bytes is used and mixed using the core RIPE-MD160 hash
transform function. Several extra features are used to make the
robust against a wide variety of attacks and to protect against
failures of subsystems. The state of the generator may be saved to a
file and initially seed form a file.
Depending on how Libgcrypt was build the generator is able to select
the best working entropy gathering module. It makes use of the slow
and fast collection methods and requires the pool to initially seeded
form the slow gatherer or a seed file. An entropy estimation is used
to mix in enough data from the gather modules before returning the
actual random output. Process fork detection and protection is
implemented.
@c FIXME: The design and implementaion needs a more verbose description.
The implementation of the nonce generator (for
@code{gcry_create_nonce}) is a straightforward repeated hash design: A
28 byte buffer is initially seeded with the PID and the time in
seconds in the first 20 bytes and with 8 bytes of random taken from
the @code{GCRY_STRONG_RANDOM} generator. Random numbers are then
created by hashing all the 28 bytes with SHA-1 and saving that again
in the first 20 bytes. The hash is also returned as result.
@node FIPS PRNG Description
@subsection Description of the FIPS X9.31 PRNG
The core of this deterministic random number generator is implemented
according to the document ``NIST-Recommended Random Number Generator
Based on ANSI X9.31 Appendix A.2.4 Using the 3-Key Triple DES and AES
Algorithms'', dated 2005-01-31. This implementation uses the AES
variant.
The generator is based on contexts to utilize the same core functions
for all random levels as required by the high-level interface. All
random generators return their data in 128 bit blocks. If the caller
requests less bits, the extra bits are not used. The key for each
generator is only set once at the first time a generator context is
used. The seed value is set along with the key and again after 1000
output blocks.
On Unix like systems the @code{GCRY_VERY_STRONG_RANDOM} and
@code{GCRY_STRONG_RANDOM} generators are keyed and seeded using the
rndlinux module with the @file{/dev/radnom} device. Thus these
generators may block until the OS kernel has collected enough entropy.
When used with Microsoft Windows the rndw32 module is used instead.
The generator used for @code{gcry_create_nonce} is keyed and seeded
from the @code{GCRY_STRONG_RANDOM} generator. Thus is may also block
if the @code{GCRY_STRONG_RANDOM} generator has not yet been used
before and thus gets initialized on the first use by
@code{gcry_create_nonce}. This special treatment is justified by the
weaker requirements for a nonce generator and to save precious kernel
entropy for use by the ``real'' random generators.
A self-test facility uses a separate context to check the
functionality of the core X9.31 functions using a known answers test.
During runtime each output block is compared to the previous one to
detect a stucked generator.
The DT value for the generator is made up of the current time down to
microseconds (if available) and a free running 64 bit counter. When
used with the test context the DT value is taken from the context and
incremented on each use.

@c @subsection S-expression Subsystem Architecture
@c
@c Libgcrypt provides an interface to S-expression to create and parse
@c them. To use an S-expression with Libgcrypt it needs first be
@c converted into the internal representation used by Libgcrypt (the type
@c @code{gcry_sexp_t}). The conversion functions support a large subset
@c of the S-expression specification and further fature a printf like
@c function to convert a list of big integers or other binary data into
@c an S-expression.
@c
@c Libgcrypt currently implements S-expressions using a tagged linked
@c list. However this is not exposed to an application and may be
@c changed in future releases to reduce overhead when already working
@c with canonically encoded S-expressions. Secure memory is supported by

@node Self-Tests
@appendix Description of the Self-Tests
In addition to the build time regression test suite, Libgcrypt
implements self-tests to be performed at runtime. Which self-tests
are actually used depends on the mode Libgcrypt is used in. In
standard mode a limited set of self-tests is run at the time an
algorithm is first used. Note that not all algorithms feature a
self-test in standard mode. The @code{GCRYCTL_SELFTEST} control
command may be used to run all implemented self-tests at any time;
this will even run more tests than those run in FIPS mode.
If any of the self-tests fails, the library immediately returns an
error code to the caller. If Libgcrypt is in FIPS mode the self-tests
will be performed within the ``Self-Test'' state and any failure puts
the library into the ``Error'' state.
@c --------------------------------
@section Power-Up Tests
Power-up tests are only performed if Libgcrypt is in FIPS mode.
@subsection Symmetric Cipher Algorithm Power-Up Tests
The following symmetric encryption algorithm tests are run during
power-up:
@table @asis
@item 3DES
To test the 3DES 3-key EDE encryption in ECB mode these tests are
run:
@enumerate
@item
A known answer test is run on a 64 bit test vector processed by 64
rounds of Single-DES block encryption and decryption using a key
changed with each round.
@item
A known answer test is run on a 64 bit test vector processed by 16
rounds of 2-key and 3-key Triple-DES block encryption and decryptions
using a key changed with each round.
@item
10 known answer tests using 3-key Triple-DES EDE encryption, comparing
the ciphertext to the known value, then running a decryption and
comparing it to the initial plaintext.
@end enumerate
(@code{cipher/des.c:selftest})
@item AES-128
A known answer tests is run using one test vector and one test
key with AES in ECB mode. (@code{cipher/rijndael.c:selftest_basic_128})
@item AES-192
A known answer tests is run using one test vector and one test
key with AES in ECB mode. (@code{cipher/rijndael.c:selftest_basic_192})
@item AES-256
A known answer tests is run using one test vector and one test key
with AES in ECB mode. (@code{cipher/rijndael.c:selftest_basic_256})
@end table
@subsection Hash Algorithm Power-Up Tests
The following hash algorithm tests are run during power-up:
@table @asis
@item SHA-1
A known answer test using the string @code{"abc"} is run.
(@code{cipher/@/sha1.c:@/selftests_sha1})
@item SHA-224
A known answer test using the string @code{"abc"} is run.
(@code{cipher/@/sha256.c:@/selftests_sha224})
@item SHA-256
A known answer test using the string @code{"abc"} is run.
(@code{cipher/@/sha256.c:@/selftests_sha256})
@item SHA-384
A known answer test using the string @code{"abc"} is run.
(@code{cipher/@/sha512.c:@/selftests_sha384})
@item SHA-512
A known answer test using the string @code{"abc"} is run.
(@code{cipher/@/sha512.c:@/selftests_sha512})
@end table
@subsection MAC Algorithm Power-Up Tests
The following MAC algorithm tests are run during power-up:
@table @asis
@item HMAC SHA-1
A known answer test using 9 byte of data and a 64 byte key is run.
(@code{cipher/hmac-tests.c:selftests_sha1})
@item HMAC SHA-224
A known answer test using 28 byte of data and a 4 byte key is run.
(@code{cipher/hmac-tests.c:selftests_sha224})
@item HMAC SHA-256
A known answer test using 28 byte of data and a 4 byte key is run.
(@code{cipher/hmac-tests.c:selftests_sha256})
@item HMAC SHA-384
A known answer test using 28 byte of data and a 4 byte key is run.
(@code{cipher/hmac-tests.c:selftests_sha384})
@item HMAC SHA-512
A known answer test using 28 byte of data and a 4 byte key is run.
(@code{cipher/hmac-tests.c:selftests_sha512})
@end table
@subsection Random Number Power-Up Test
The DRNG is tested during power-up this way:
@enumerate
@item
Requesting one block of random using the public interface to check
general working and the duplicated block detection.
@item
3 know answer tests using pre-defined keys, seed and initial DT
values. For each test 3 blocks of 16 bytes are requested and compared
to the expected result. The DT value is incremented for each block.
@end enumerate
@subsection Public Key Algorithm Power-Up Tests
The public key algorithms are tested during power-up:
@table @asis
@item RSA
A pre-defined 1024 bit RSA key is used and these tests are run
in turn:
@enumerate
@item
Conversion of S-expression to internal format.
(@code{cipher/@/rsa.c:@/selftests_rsa})
@item
Private key consistency check.
(@code{cipher/@/rsa.c:@/selftests_rsa})
@item
A pre-defined 20 byte value is signed with PKCS#1 padding for SHA-1.
The result is verified using the public key against the original data
and against modified data. (@code{cipher/@/rsa.c:@/selftest_sign_1024})
@item
A 1000 bit random value is encrypted and checked that it does not
match the orginal random value. The encrtypted result is then
decrypted and checked that it macthes the original random value.
(@code{cipher/@/rsa.c:@/selftest_encr_1024})
@end enumerate
@item DSA
A pre-defined 1024 bit DSA key is used and these tests are run in turn:
@enumerate
@item
Conversion of S-expression to internal format.
(@code{cipher/@/dsa.c:@/selftests_dsa})
@item
Private key consistency check.
(@code{cipher/@/dsa.c:@/selftests_dsa})
@item
A pre-defined 20 byte value is signed with PKCS#1 padding for
SHA-1. The result is verified using the public key against the
original data and against modified data.
(@code{cipher/@/dsa.c:@/selftest_sign_1024})
@end enumerate
@end table
@subsection Integrity Power-Up Tests
The integrity of the Libgcrypt is tested during power-up but only if
checking has been enabled at build time. The check works by computing
a HMAC SHA-256 checksum over the file used to load Libgcrypt into
memory. That checksum is compared against a checksum stored in a file
of the same name but with a single dot as a prefix and a suffix of
@file{.hmac}.
@subsection Critical Functions Power-Up Tests
The 3DES weak key detection is tested during power-up by calling the
detection function with keys taken from a table listening all weak
keys. The table itself is protected using a SHA-1 hash.
(@code{cipher/@/des.c:@/selftest})
@c --------------------------------
@section Conditional Tests
The conditional tests are performed if a certain contidion is met.
This may occur at any time; the library does not necessary enter the
``Self-Test'' state to run these tests but will transit to the
``Error'' state if a test failed.
@subsection Key-Pair Generation Tests
After an asymmetric key-pair has been generated, Libgcrypt runs a
pair-wise consistency tests on the generated key. On failure the
generated key is not used, an error code is returned and, if in FIPS
mode, the library is put into the ``Error'' state.
@table @asis
@item RSA
The test uses a random number 64 bits less the size of the modulus as
plaintext and runs an encryption and decryption operation in turn. The
encrypted value is checked to not match the plaintext and the result
of the decryption is checked to match the plaintext.
A new random number of the same size is generated, signed and verified
to test the correctness of the signing operation. As a second signing
test, the signature is modified by incrementing its value and then
verified with the expected result that the verification fails.
(@code{cipher/@/rsa.c:@/test_keys})
@item DSA
The test uses a random number of the size of the Q parameter to create
a signature and then checks that the signature verifies. As a second
signing test, the data is modified by incrementing its value and then
verified against the signature with the expected result that the
verification fails. (@code{cipher/@/dsa.c:@/test_keys})
@end table
@subsection Software Load Tests
No code is loaded at runtime.
@subsection Manual Key Entry Tests
A manual key entry feature is not implemented in Libgcrypt.
@subsection Continuous RNG Tests
The continuous random number test is only used in FIPS mode. The RNG
generates blocks of 128 bit size; the first block generated per
context is saved in the context and another block is generated to be
returned to the caller. Each block is compared against the saved
block and then stored in the context. If a duplicated block is
detected an error is signaled and the library is put into the
``Fatal-Error'' state.
(@code{random/@/random-fips.c:@/x931_aes_driver})
@c --------------------------------
@section Application Requested Tests
The application may requests tests at any time by means of the
@code{GCRYCTL_SELFTEST} control command. Note that using these tests
is not FIPS conform: Although Libgcrypt rejects all application
requests for services while running self-tests, it does not ensure
that no other operations of Libgcrypt are still being executed. Thus,
in FIPS mode an application requesting self-tests needs to power-cycle
Libgcrypt instead.
When self-tests are requested, Libgcrypt runs all the tests it does
during power-up as well as a few extra checks as described below.
@subsection Symmetric Cipher Algorithm Tests
The following symmetric encryption algorithm tests are run in addition
to the power-up tests:
@table @asis
@item AES-128
A known answer tests with test vectors taken from NIST SP800-38a and
using the high level functions is run for block modes CFB and OFB.
@end table

power-up tests:

@node FIPS Mode
@appendix Description of the FIPS Mode
This appendix gives detailed information pertaining to the FIPS mode.
In particular, the changes to the standard mode and the finite state
machine are described. The self-tests required in this mode are
described in the appendix on self-tests.
@c -------------------------------
@section Restrictions in FIPS Mode
@noindent
If Libgcrypt is used in FIPS mode these restrictions are effective:
@itemize
@item
The cryptographic algorithms are restricted to this list:
@table @asis
@item GCRY_CIPHER_3DES
3 key EDE Triple-DES symmetric encryption.
@item GCRY_CIPHER_AES128
AES 128 bit symmetric encryption.
@item GCRY_CIPHER_AES192
AES 192 bit symmetric encryption.
@item GCRY_CIPHER_AES256
AES 256 bit symmetric encryption.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA1
SHA-1 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA224
SHA-224 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA256
SHA-256 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA384
SHA-384 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA512
SHA-512 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA1,GCRY_MD_FLAG_HMAC
HMAC using a SHA-1 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA224,GCRY_MD_FLAG_HMAC
HMAC using a SHA-224 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA256,GCRY_MD_FLAG_HMAC
HMAC using a SHA-256 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA384,GCRY_MD_FLAG_HMAC
HMAC using a SHA-384 message digest.
@item GCRY_MD_SHA512,GCRY_MD_FLAG_HMAC
HMAC using a SHA-512 message digest.
@item GCRY_PK_RSA
RSA encryption and signing.
@item GCRY_PK_DSA
DSA signing.
@end table
Note that the CRC algorithms are not considered cryptographic algorithms
and thus are in addition available.
@item
RSA key generation refuses to create a key with a keysize of
less than 1024 bits.
@item
DSA key generation refuses to create a key with a keysize other
than 1024 bits.
@item
The @code{transient-key} flag for RSA and DSA key generation is ignored.
@item
Support for the VIA Padlock engine is disabled.
@item
FIPS mode may only be used on systems with a /dev/random device.
Switching into FIPS mode on other systems will fail at runtime.
@item
Saving and loading a random seed file is ignored.
@item
An X9.31 style random number generator is used in place of the
large-pool-CSPRNG generator.
@item
The command @code{GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM} is ignored.
@item
Message digest debugging is disabled.
@item
All debug output related to cryptographic data is suppressed.
@item
On-the-fly self-tests are not performed, instead self-tests are run
before entering operational state.
@item
The function @code{gcry_set_allocation_handler} may not be used. If
it is used Libgcrypt disables FIPS mode unless Enforced FIPS mode is
enabled, in which case Libgcrypt will enter the error state.
@item
The digest algorithm MD5 may not be used. If it is used Libgcrypt
disables FIPS mode unless Enforced FIPS mode is enabled, in which case
Libgcrypt will enter the error state.
@item
In Enforced FIPS mode the command @code{GCRYCTL_DISABLE_SECMEM} is
ignored. In standard FIPS mode it disables FIPS mode.
@item
A handler set by @code{gcry_set_outofcore_handler} is ignored.
@item
A handler set by @code{gcry_set_fatalerror_handler} is ignored.
@end itemize
Note that when we speak about disabling FIPS mode, it merely means
that the function @code{gcry_fips_mode_active} returns false; it does
not mean that any non FIPS algorithms are allowed.
@c ********************************************
@section FIPS Finite State Machine
The FIPS mode of libgcrypt implements a finite state machine (FSM) using
8 states (@pxref{tbl:fips-states}) and checks at runtime that only valid
transitions (@pxref{tbl:fips-state-transitions}) may happen.
@float Figure,fig:fips-fsm
@caption{FIPS mode state diagram}
@center @image{fips-fsm,150mm,,FIPS FSM Diagram}
@end float
@float Table,tbl:fips-states
@caption{FIPS mode states}
@noindent
States used by the FIPS FSM:
@table @asis
@item Power-Off
Libgcrypt is not runtime linked to another application. This usually
means that the library is not loaded into main memory. This state is
documentation only.
@item Power-On
Libgcrypt is loaded into memory and API calls may be made. Compiler
introducted constructor functions may be run. Note that Libgcrypt does
not implement any arbitrary constructor functions to be called by the
operating system
@item Init
The Libgcrypt initialization functions are performed and the library has
not yet run any self-test.
@item Self-Test
Libgcrypt is performing self-tests.
@item Operational
Libgcrypt is in the operational state and all interfaces may be used.
@item Error
Libgrypt is in the error state. When calling any FIPS relevant
interfaces they either return an error (@code{GPG_ERR_NOT_OPERATIONAL})
or put Libgcrypt into the Fatal-Error state and won't return.
@item Fatal-Error
Libgcrypt is in a non-recoverable error state and
will automatically transit into the Shutdown state.
@item Shutdown
Libgcrypt is about to be terminated and removed from the memory. The
application may at this point still runing cleanup handlers.
@end table
@end float
@float Table,tbl:fips-state-transitions
@caption{FIPS mode state transitions}
@noindent
The valid state transitions (@pxref{fig:fips-fsm}) are:
@table @code
@item 1
Power-Off to Power-On is implicitly done by the OS loading Libgcrypt as
a shared library and having it linked to an application.
@item 2
Power-On to Init is triggered by the application calling the
Libgcrypt intialization function @code{gcry_check_version}.
@item 3
Init to Self-Test is either triggred by a dedicated API call or implicit
by invoking a libgrypt service conrolled by the FSM.
@item 4
Self-Test to Operational is triggered after all self-tests passed
successfully.
@item 5
Operational to Shutdown is an artifical state without any direct action
in Libgcrypt. When reaching the Shutdown state the library is
deinitialized and can't return to any other state again.
@item 6
Shutdown to Power-off is the process of removing Libgcrypt from the
computer's memory. For obvious reasons the Power-Off state can't be
represented within Libgcrypt and thus this transition is for
documentation only.
@item 7
Operational to Error is triggered if Libgcrypt detected an application
error which can't be returned to the caller but still allows Libgcrypt
to properly run. In the Error state all FIPS relevant interfaces return
an error code.
@item 8
Error to Shutdown is similar to the Operational to Shutdown transition
(5).
@item 9
Error to Fatal-Error is triggred if Libgrypt detects an fatal error
while already being in Error state.
@item 10
Fatal-Error to Shutdown is automatically entered by Libgcrypt
after having reported the error.
@item 11
Power-On to Shutdown is an artifical state to document that Libgcrypt
has not ye been initializaed but the process is about to terminate.
@item 12
Power-On to Fatal-Error will be triggerd if certain Libgcrypt functions
are used without having reached the Init state.
@item 13
Self-Test to Fatal-Error is triggred by severe errors in Libgcrypt while
running self-tests.
@item 14
Self-Test to Error is triggred by a failed self-test.
@item 15
Operational to Fatal-Error is triggered if Libcrypt encountered a
non-recoverable error.
@item 16
Operational to Self-Test is triggred if the application requested to run
the self-tests again.
@item 17
Error to Self-Test is triggered if the application has requested to run
self-tests to get to get back into operational state after an error.
@item 18
Init to Error is triggered by errors in the initialization code.
@item 19
Init to Fatal-Error is triggered by non-recoverable errors in the
initialization code.
@item 20
Error to Error is triggered by errors while already in the Error
state.
@end table
@end float
@c ********************************************
@section FIPS Miscellaneous Information
Libgcrypt does not do any key management on itself; the application
needs to care about it. Keys which are passed to Libgcrypt should be
allocated in secure memory as available with the functions
@code{gcry_malloc_secure} and @code{gcry_calloc_secure}. By calling
@code{gcry_free} on this memory, the memory and thus the keys are
overwritten with zero bytes before releasing the memory.
For use with the random number generator, Libgcrypt generates 3
internal keys which are stored in the encryption contexts used by the
RNG. These keys are stored in secure memory for the lifetime of the
process. Application are required to use @code{GCRYCTL_TERM_SECMEM}
before process termination. This will zero out the entire secure
memory and thus also the encryption contexts with these keys.

from a perfect solution and hides problems with an improper
initialization but at least in single-threaded mode it should work
reliable.
The reason we need this is that a lot of applications don't use
Libgcrypt properly by not running any initialization code at all.
They just call a Libgcrypt function and that is all what they want.
Now with the FIPS mode, that has the side effect of entering FIPS
mode (for security reasons, FIPS mode is the default if no
initialization has been done) and bailing out immediately because
the FSM is in the wrong state. If we always run the init code,
Libgcrypt can test for FIPS mode and at least if not in FIPS mode,
it will behave as before. Note that this on-the-fly initialization
is only done for the cryptographic functions subject to FIPS mode
and thus not all API calls will do such an initialization. */
