23 * The key payload is four words. The asymmetric-type key uses them as
24 * follows:
26 enum asymmetric_payload_bits {
27 asym_crypto, /* The data representing the key */
28 asym_subtype, /* Pointer to an asymmetric_key_subtype struct */
29 asym_key_ids, /* Pointer to an asymmetric_key_ids struct */
30 asym_auth /* The key's authorisation (signature, parent key ID) */
34 * Identifiers for an asymmetric key ID. We have three ways of looking up a
35 * key derived from an X.509 certificate:
37 * (1) Serial Number & Issuer. Non-optional. This is the only valid way to
38 * map a PKCS#7 signature to an X.509 certificate.
40 * (2) Issuer & Subject Unique IDs. Optional. These were the original way to
41 * match X.509 certificates, but have fallen into disuse in favour of (3).
43 * (3) Auth & Subject Key Identifiers. Optional. SKIDs are only provided on
44 * CA keys that are intended to sign other keys, so don't appear in end
45 * user certificates unless forced.
47 * We could also support an PGP key identifier, which is just a SHA1 sum of the
48 * public key and certain parameters, but since we don't support PGP keys at
49 * the moment, we shall ignore those.
51 * What we actually do is provide a place where binary identifiers can be
52 * stashed and then compare against them when checking for an id match.
