26 * This module implements the anti-forensic splitter that is specified
27 * as part of the LUKS format:
29 * http://clemens.endorphin.org/cryptography
30 * http://clemens.endorphin.org/TKS1-draft.pdf
32 * The core idea is to take a short piece of data (key material)
33 * and process it to expand it to a much larger piece of data.
34 * The expansion process is reversible, to obtain the original
35 * short data. The key property of the expansion is that if any
36 * byte in the larger data set is changed / missing, it should be
37 * impossible to recreate the original short data.
39 * <example>
40 * <title>Creating a large split key for storage</title>
41 * <programlisting>
42 * size_t nkey = 32;
43 * uint32_t stripes = 32768; // To produce a 1 MB split key
44 * uint8_t *masterkey = ....a 32-byte AES key...
45 * uint8_t *splitkey;
47 * splitkey = g_new0(uint8_t, nkey * stripes);
49 * if (qcrypto_afsplit_encode(QCRYPTO_HASH_ALG_SHA256,
50 * nkey, stripes,
51 * masterkey, splitkey, errp) < 0) {
52 * g_free(splitkey);
53 * g_free(masterkey);
54 * return -1;
55 * }
57 * ...store splitkey somewhere...
