=head1 NAME
EVP_PKEY-FFC - EVP_PKEY DSA and DH shared FFC parameters.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Finite field cryptography (FFC) is a method of implementing discrete logarithm
cryptography using finite field mathematics. DSA is an example of FFC and
Diffie-Hellman key establishment algorithms specified in SP800-56A can also be
implemented as FFC.
The B<DSA> and B<DH> keytypes are implemented in OpenSSL's default and FIPS
providers.
The implementations support the basic DSA and DH keys, containing the public
and private keys I<pub> and I<priv> as well as the three main domain parameters
I<p>, I<q> and I<g>.
For B<DSA> (and B<DH> that is not a named group) the FIPS186-4 standard
specifies that the values used for FFC parameter generation are also required
for parameter validation.
This means that optional FFC domain parameter values for I<seed>, I<pcounter>
and I<gindex> may need to be stored for validation purposes.
For B<DH> the I<seed> and I<pcounter> can be stored in ASN1 data
(but the I<gindex> is not). For B<DSA> however, these fields are not stored in
the ASN1 data so they need to be stored externally if validation is required.
=head2 FFC parameters
In addition to the common parameters that all keytypes should support (see
L<provider-keymgmt(7)/Common parameters>), the B<DSA> and B<DH> keytype
implementations support the following.
=over 4
=item "pub" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_PUB_KEY>) <unsigned integer>
The public key value.
=item "priv" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_PRIV_KEY>) <unsigned integer>
The private key value.
=item "p" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_P>) <unsigned integer>
A DSA or Diffie-Hellman prime "p" value.
=item "q" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_Q>) <unsigned integer>
A DSA or Diffie-Hellman prime "q" value.
=item "g" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_G>) <unsigned integer>
A DSA or Diffie-Hellman generator "g" value.
=item "seed" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_SEED>) <octet string>
An optional domain parameter I<seed> value used during generation and validation
of I<p>, I<q> and canonical I<g>.
For validation this needs to set the I<seed> that was produced during generation.
=item "gindex" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_GINDEX>) <integer>
Sets the index to use for canonical generation and verification of the generator
I<g>.
Set this to a positive value from 0..FF to use this mode. This I<gindex> can
then be reused during key validation to verify the value of I<g>. If this value
is not set or is -1 then unverifiable generation of the generator I<g> will be
used.
=item "pcounter" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_PCOUNTER>) <integer>
An optional domain parameter I<counter> value that is output during generation
of I<p>. This value must be saved if domain parameter validation is required.
=item "hindex" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_H>) <integer>
For unverifiable generation of the generator I<g> this value is output during
generation of I<g>. Its value is the first integer larger than one that
satisfies g = h^j mod p (where g != 1 and "j" is the cofactor).
=item "j" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_COFACTOR>) <unsigned integer>
An optional informational cofactor parameter that should equal to (p - 1) / q.
=back
=head2 FFC key generation parameters
The following key generation types are available for DSA and DH algorithms:
=over 4
=item "type" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_TYPE>) <utf8_string>
Sets the type of parameter generation. The shared valid values are:
=over 4
=item "fips186_4"
The current standard. This is the default value.
=item "fips186_2"
The old standard that should only be used for legacy purposes.
=item "default"
This is an alias to use the latest implemented standard.
It is currently set to "fips186_4".
=back
=item "pbits" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_PBITS>) <unsigned integer>
Sets the size (in bits) of the prime 'p'.
=item "qbits" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_QBITS>) <unsigned integer>
Sets the size (in bits) of the prime 'q'.
For "fips186_4" this can be either 224 or 256.
For "fips186_2" this has a size of 160.
=item "digest" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_DIGEST>) <utf8_string>
Sets the Digest algorithm to be used as part of the Key Generation Function
associated with the given Key Generation I<ctx>.
This must also be set for key validation.
=item "properties" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_DIGEST_PROPS>) <utf8_string>
Sets properties to be used upon look up of the implementation for the selected
Digest algorithm for the Key Generation Function associated with the given key
generation I<ctx>. This may also be set for key validation.
=item "seed" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_SEED>) <octet string>
For "fips186_4" or "fips186_2" generation this sets the I<seed> data to use
instead of generating a random seed internally. This should be used for
testing purposes only. This will either produce fixed values for the generated
parameters OR it will fail if the seed did not generate valid primes.
=item "gindex" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_GINDEX>) <integer>
=item "pcounter" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_PCOUNTER>) <integer>
=item "hindex" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_H>) <integer>
These types are described above.
