DESCRIPTION
RS256 is the name given in the CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE)
RFC to PKCS#1.5 2048-bit RSA with SHA-256. The COSE RS256 API of
libfido2 is an auxiliary API with routines to convert between the differ-
ent RSA public key types used in libfido2 and OpenSSL.
In libfido2, RS256 public keys are abstracted by the rs256_pk_t type.
The rs256_pk_new() function returns a pointer to a newly allocated, empty
rs256_pk_t type. If memory cannot be allocated, NULL is returned.
The rs256_pk_free() function releases the memory backing *pkp, where *pkp
must have been previously allocated by rs256_pk_new(). On return, *pkp
is set to NULL. Either pkp or *pkp may be NULL, in which case
rs256_pk_free() is a NOP.
The rs256_pk_from_EVP_PKEY() function fills pk with the contents of pkey.
No references to pkey are kept.
The rs256_pk_from_RSA() function fills pk with the contents of rsa. No
references to rsa are kept.
The rs256_pk_from_ptr() function fills pk with the contents of ptr, where
ptr points to len bytes. No references to ptr are kept.
The rs256_pk_to_EVP_PKEY() function converts pk to a newly allocated
EVP_PKEY type with a reference count of 1. No internal references to the
returned pointer are kept. If an error occurs, rs256_pk_to_EVP_PKEY()
returns NULL.
RETURN VALUES
The rs256_pk_from_EVP_PKEY(), rs256_pk_from_RSA(), and
rs256_pk_from_ptr() functions return FIDO_OK on success. On error, a
different error code defined in <fido/err.h> is returned.
