Parameters:

  • key pointer to the RsaKey structure to initialize
  • id identifier of key on device

function wc_RsaFlattenPublicKey

int wc_RsaFlattenPublicKey(
    RsaKey * key,
    byte * e,
    word32 * eSz,
    byte * n,
    word32 * nSz
)

Flattens the RsaKey structure into individual elements (e, n) used for the RSA algorithm.

Parameters:

  • key The key to use for verification.
  • e a buffer for the value of e. e is a large positive integer in the RSA modular arithmetic operation.
  • eSz the size of the e buffer.
  • n a buffer for the value of n. n is a large positive integer in the RSA modular arithmetic operation.
  • nSz the size of the n buffer.

See:

Return:

  • 0 Returned if the function executed normally, without error.
  • BAD_FUNC_ARG: Returned if any of the parameters are passed in with a null value.
  • RSA_BUFFER_E: Returned if the e or n buffers passed in are not the correct size.
  • MP_MEM: Returned if an internal function has memory errors.
  • MP_VAL: Returned if an internal function argument is not valid.

Rsa key; // A valid RSA key.
byte e[ buffer sz E.g. 256 ];
byte n[256];
int ret;
word32 eSz = sizeof(e);
word32 nSz = sizeof(n);

function wc_RsaKeyToPublicDer

int wc_RsaKeyToPublicDer(
    RsaKey * key,
    byte * output,
    word32 inLen
)

Convert Rsa Public key to DER format. Writes to output, and returns count of bytes written.

Parameters:

  • key The RSA key structure to convert.
  • output Output buffer to hold DER. (if NULL will return length only)
  • inLen Length of buffer.

See:

Return:

  • 0 Success, number of bytes written.

  • MEMORY_E Returned when an error allocating memory occurs.
  • <0 Error

Example

RsaKey key;

    // Handle Error
}

int wc_RsaKeyToPublicDer_ex(
    RsaKey * key,
    byte * output,
    word32 inLen,
    int with_header
)

Convert RSA Public key to DER format. Writes to output, and returns count of bytes written. If with_header is 0 then only the ( seq + n + e) is returned in ASN.1 DER format and will exclude the header.

Parameters:

  • key The RSA key structure to convert.
  • output Output buffer to hold DER. (if NULL will return length only)
  • inLen Length of buffer.

  • MEMORY_E Returned when an error allocating memory occurs.
  • <0 Error

Example

RsaKey key;

wc_InitRsaKey(&key, NULL);
// Use key

const int BUFFER_SIZE = 1024; // Some adequate size for the buffer
byte output[BUFFER_SIZE];
if (wc_RsaKeyToPublicDer_ex(&key, output, sizeof(output), 0) != 0) {
    // Handle Error
}

function wc_MakeRsaKey

int wc_MakeRsaKey(
    RsaKey * key,
    int size,
    long e,
    WC_RNG * rng
)

This function generates a RSA private key of length size (in bits) and given exponent (e). It then stores this key in the provided RsaKey structure, so that it may be used for encryption/decryption. A secure number to use for e is 65537. size is required to be greater than RSA_MIN_SIZE and less than RSA_MAX_SIZE. For this function to be available, the option WOLFSSL_KEY_GEN must be enabled at compile time. This can be accomplished with –enable-keygen if using ./configure.

Parameters:

  • key pointer to the RsaKey structure in which to store the generated private key
  • size desired key length, in bits. Required to be greater than RSA_MIN_SIZE and less than RSA_MAX_SIZE
  • e exponent parameter to use for generating the key. A secure choice is 65537
  • rng pointer to an RNG structure to use for random number generation while making the ke

See: none

Return:

  • 0 Returned upon successfully generating a RSA private key
  • BAD_FUNC_ARG Returned if any of the input arguments are NULL, the size parameter falls outside of the necessary bounds, or e is incorrectly chosen
  • RNG_FAILURE_E Returned if there is an error generating a random block using the provided RNG structure
  • MP_INIT_E
  • MP_READ_E May be May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_CMP_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_INVMOD_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_EXPTMOD_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_MOD_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_MUL_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_ADD_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_MULMOD_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_TO_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_MEM May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key
  • MP_ZERO_E May be returned if there is an error in the math library used while generating the RSA key

Example

RsaKey priv;
WC_RNG rng;
int ret = 0;
long e = 65537; // standard value to use for exponent

wc_InitRsaKey(&priv, NULL); // not using heap hint. No custom memory
wc_InitRng(&rng);
// generate 2048 bit long private key
ret = wc_MakeRsaKey(&priv, 2048, e, &rng);
if( ret != 0 ) {
    // error generating private key
}

function wc_RsaSetNonBlock

int wc_RsaSetNonBlock(
    RsaKey * key,
    RsaNb * nb
)

This function sets the non-blocking RSA context. When a RsaNb context is set it enables fast math based non-blocking exptmod, which splits the RSA function into many smaller operations. Enabled when WC_RSA_NONBLOCK is defined.

Parameters:

  • key The RSA key structure
  • nb The RSA non-blocking structure for this RSA key to use.

See: wc_RsaSetNonBlockTime

Return:

  • 0 Success
  • BAD_FUNC_ARG Returned if key or nb is null.

Example

int ret, count = 0;
RsaKey key;
RsaNb  nb;

wc_InitRsaKey(&key, NULL);

// Enable non-blocking RSA mode - provide context
ret = wc_RsaSetNonBlock(key, &nb);
if (ret != 0)
    return ret;

do {
    ret = wc_RsaSSL_Sign(in, inLen, out, outSz, key, rng);
    count++; // track number of would blocks
    if (ret == FP_WOULDBLOCK) {
        // do "other" work here
    }
} while (ret == FP_WOULDBLOCK);
if (ret < 0) {
    return ret;
}

printf("RSA non-block sign: size %d, %d times\n", ret, count);

function wc_RsaSetNonBlockTime

int wc_RsaSetNonBlockTime(
    RsaKey * key,
    word32 maxBlockUs,
    word32 cpuMHz
)

This function configures the maximum amount of blocking time in microseconds. It uses a pre-computed table (see tfm.c exptModNbInst) along with the CPU speed in megahertz to determine if the next operation can be completed within the maximum blocking time provided. Enabled when WC_RSA_NONBLOCK_TIME is defined.

Parameters:

  • key The RSA key structure.
  • maxBlockUs Maximum time to block microseconds.
  • cpuMHz CPU speed in megahertz.

See: wc_RsaSetNonBlock

Return:

  • 0 Success
  • BAD_FUNC_ARG Returned if key is null or wc_RsaSetNonBlock was not previously called and key->nb is null.

Example

RsaKey key;
RsaNb  nb;

wc_InitRsaKey(&key, NULL);
wc_RsaSetNonBlock(key, &nb);
wc_RsaSetNonBlockTime(&key, 4000, 160); // Block Max = 4 ms, CPU = 160MHz
