DESCRIPTION
Symmetric cryptographic requests use data buffers to describe the data to
be modified. Requests can either specify a single data buffer whose
input and output and false if crp uses a single buffer.
crypto_buffer_len() returns the length of data buffer cb in bytes.
crypto_apply_buf() invokes a caller-supplied function to a region of the
data buffer cb. The function f is called one or more times. For each
invocation, the first argument to f is the value of arg passed to
crypto_apply_buf(). The second and third arguments to f are a pointer
and length to a segment of the buffer mapped into the kernel. The
function is called enough times to cover the len bytes of the data buffer
which starts at an offset off. If any invocation of f returns a non-zero
value, crypto_apply_buf() immediately returns that value without invoking
f on any remaining segments of the region, otherwise crypto_apply_buf()
returns the value from the final call to f. crypto_apply() invokes the
callback f on a region of the input data buffer for crp.
crypto_buffer_contiguous_subsegment() attempts to locate a single,
virtually-contiguous segment of the data buffer cb. The segment must be
len bytes long and start at an offset of skip bytes. If a segment is
found, a pointer to the start of the segment is returned. Otherwise,
NULL is returned. crypto_contiguous_subsegment() attempts to locate a
single, virtually-contiguous segment in the input data buffer for crp.
Data Buffers
Data buffers are described by an instance of struct crypto buffer. The
cb_type member contains the type of the data buffer. The following types
are supported:
CRYPTO_BUF_NONE An invalid buffer. Used to mark the output buffer
when a crypto request uses a single data buffer.
CRYPTO_BUF_CONTIG An array of bytes mapped into the kernel's address
space.
CRYPTO_BUF_UIO A scatter/gather list of kernel buffers as described
in uio(9).
CRYPTO_BUF_MBUF A chain of network memory buffers as described in
mbuf(9).
CRYPTO_BUF_SINGLE_MBUF
A single network memory buffer as described in
mbuf(9).
CRYPTO_BUF_VMPAGE A scatter/gather list of vm_page_t structures
describing pages in the kernel's address space.
This buffer type is only available if
CRYPTO_HAS_VMPAGE is true.
The structure also contains the following type-specific fields:
cb_buf A pointer to the start of a CRYPTO_BUF_CONTIG data
buffer.
cb_buf_len The length of a CRYPTO_BUF_CONTIG data buffer
cb_mbuf A pointer to a struct mbuf for CRYPTO_BUF_MBUF and
CRYPTO_BUF_SINGLE_MBUF.
cb_vm_page_offset Offset in bytes in the first page of cb_vm_page
where valid data begins.
Cursors
Cursors provide a mechanism for iterating over a data buffer. They are
primarily intended for use in software drivers which access data buffers
via virtual addresses.
crypto_cursor_init() initializes the cursor cc to reference the start of
the data buffer cb.
crypto_cursor_advance() advances the cursor amount bytes forward in the
data buffer.
crypto_cursor_copyback() copies size bytes from the local buffer pointed
to by src into the data buffer associated with cc. The bytes are written
to the current position of cc, and the cursor is then advanced by size
bytes.
crypto_cursor_copydata() copies size bytes out of the data buffer
associated with cc into a local buffer pointed to by dst. The bytes are
read from the current position of cc, and the cursor is then advanced by
size bytes.
crypto_cursor_copydata_noadv() is similar to crypto_cursor_copydata()
except that it does not change the current position of cc.
crypto_cursor_segment() returns the start of the virtually-contiguous
segment at the current position of cc. The length of the segment is
stored in len.
RETURN VALUES
crypto_apply() and crypto_apply_buf() return the return value from the
caller-supplied callback function.
crypto_buffer_contiguous_subsegment(), crypto_contiguous_subsegment(),
and crypto_cursor_segment() return a pointer to a contiguous segment or
NULL.
crypto_buffer_len() returns the length of a buffer in bytes.
crypto_cursor_seglen() returns the length in bytes of a contiguous
segment.
crypto_cursor_copy() makes a deep copy of the cursor fromc. The two
copies do not share any state and can thus be used independently.
CRYPTO_HAS_OUTPUT_BUFFER() returns true if the request uses a separate
output buffer.
