NAME
mlx5dv_crypto_login_create - Creates a crypto login object
mlx5dv_crypto_login_query - Queries the given crypto login object
mlx5dv_crypto_login_destroy - Destroys the given crypto login object
SYNOPSIS
#include <infiniband/mlx5dv.h>
struct mlx5dv_crypto_login_obj *
mlx5dv_crypto_login_create(struct ibv_context *context,
struct mlx5dv_crypto_login_attr_ex *login_attr);
int mlx5dv_crypto_login_query(struct mlx5dv_crypto_login_obj *crypto_login,
struct mlx5dv_crypto_login_query_attr *query_attr);
int mlx5dv_crypto_login_destroy(struct mlx5dv_crypto_login_obj *crypto_login);
DESCRIPTION
When using a crypto engine that is in wrapped import method, a valid crypto login object must be provided
in order to create and query wrapped Data Encryption Keys (DEKs).
A valid crypto login object is necessary only to create and query wrapped DEKs. Existing DEKs that were
previously created don’t need a valid crypto login object in order to be used (in MKey or during
traffic).
mlx5dv_crypto_login_create() creates and returns a crypto login object with the credential given in
login_attr. Only one crypto login object can be created per device context. The created crypto login
object must be provided to mlx5dv_dek_create() in order to create wrapped DEKs.
mlx5dv_crypto_login_query() queries the crypto login object crypto_login and returns the queried
attributes in query_attr.
mlx5dv_crypto_login_destroy() destroys the given crypto login object.
ARGUMENTS
context
The device context that will be associated with the crypto login object.
login_attr
Crypto extended login attributes specify the credential to login with and the import KEK to be used for
secured communications done with the crypto login object.
struct mlx5dv_crypto_login_attr_ex {
uint32_t credential_id;
uint32_t import_kek_id;
const void *credential;
size_t credential_len;
uint64_t comp_mask;
};
credential_id
An ID of a credential, from the credentials stored on the device, that indicates the credential
that should be validated against the credential provided in credential.
import_kek_id
An ID of an import KEK, from the import KEKs stored on the device, that indicates the import KEK
that will be used for unwrapping the credential provided in credential and also for all other
secured communications done with the crypto login object.
credential
The credential to login with. Credential is a piece of data used to authenticate the user for
crypto login. The credential in credential is validated against the credential indicated by
credential_id, which is stored on the device. The credentials must match in order for the crypto
login to succeed. credential must be provided wrapped by the AES key wrap algorithm using the
import KEK indicated by import_kek_id. credential format is ENC(iv_64b + plaintext_credential)
where ENC() is AES key wrap algorithm and iv_64b is 0xA6A6A6A6A6A6A6A6 as per the NIST SP 800-38F
AES key wrap spec, and plaintext_credential is the credential value stored on the device.
credential_len
The length of the provided credential value in bytes.
comp_mask
Reserved for future extension, must be 0 now.
query_attr
Crypto login attributes to be populated when querying a crypto login
object.
struct mlx5dv_crypto_login_query_attr {
enum mlx5dv_crypto_login_state state;
uint64_t comp_mask;
};
state The state of the crypto login object, can be one of the following
MLX5DV_CRYPTO_LOGIN_STATE_VALID
The crypto login object is valid and can be used.
MLX5DV_CRYPTO_LOGIN_STATE_INVALID
The crypto login object is invalid and cannot be used. A valid crypto login object can
become invalid if the credential or the import KEK used in the crypto login object were
deleted while in use (for example by a crypto officer). In this case,
mlx5dv_crypto_login_destroy() should be called to destroy the invalid crypto login object
and if still necessary, mlx5dv_crypto_login_create() should be called to create a new
crypto login object with valid credential and import KEK.
comp_mask
Reserved for future extension, must be 0 now.
RETURN VALUE
mlx5dv_crypto_login_create() returns a pointer to a new valid struct mlx5dv_crypto_login_obj on success.
On error NULL is returned and errno is set.
mlx5dv_crypto_login_query() returns 0 on success and fills query_attr with the queried attributes. On
error, errno is returned.
mlx5dv_crypto_login_destroy() returns 0 on success and errno on error.
