<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>
<p>This documentation is primarily aimed at provider authors. See <a href="../man7/provider.html">provider(7)</a> for further information.</p>
<p>The asymmetric kem (OSSL_OP_KEM) operation enables providers to implement asymmetric kem algorithms and make them available to applications via the API functions <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_encapsulate.html">EVP_PKEY_encapsulate(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_decapsulate.html">EVP_PKEY_decapsulate(3)</a> and other related functions.</p>
<p>All "functions" mentioned here are passed as function pointers between <i>libcrypto</i> and the provider in <b>OSSL_DISPATCH</b> arrays via <b>OSSL_ALGORITHM</b> arrays that are returned by the provider's provider_query_operation() function (see <a href="../man7/provider-base.html">"Provider Functions" in provider-base(7)</a>).</p>
<p>All these "functions" have a corresponding function type definition named <b>OSSL_FUNC_{name}_fn</b>, and a helper function to retrieve the function pointer from an <b>OSSL_DISPATCH</b> element named <b>OSSL_FUNC_{name}</b>. For example, the "function" OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx() has these:</p>
<pre><code> typedef void *(OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx_fn)(void *provctx);
static ossl_inline OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx_fn
OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx(const OSSL_DISPATCH *opf);</code></pre>
<p><b>OSSL_DISPATCH</b> arrays are indexed by numbers that are provided as macros in <a href="../man7/openssl-core_dispatch.h.html">openssl-core_dispatch.h(7)</a>, as follows:</p>
<pre><code> OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx OSSL_FUNC_KEM_NEWCTX
OSSL_FUNC_kem_freectx OSSL_FUNC_KEM_FREECTX
OSSL_FUNC_kem_dupctx OSSL_FUNC_KEM_DUPCTX
OSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate_init OSSL_FUNC_KEM_ENCAPSULATE_INIT
OSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate OSSL_FUNC_KEM_ENCAPSULATE
OSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate_init OSSL_FUNC_KEM_DECAPSULATE_INIT
OSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate OSSL_FUNC_KEM_DECAPSULATE
OSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params OSSL_FUNC_KEM_GET_CTX_PARAMS
OSSL_FUNC_kem_gettable_ctx_params OSSL_FUNC_KEM_GETTABLE_CTX_PARAMS
OSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params OSSL_FUNC_KEM_SET_CTX_PARAMS
OSSL_FUNC_kem_settable_ctx_params OSSL_FUNC_KEM_SETTABLE_CTX_PARAMS</code></pre>
<p>An asymmetric kem algorithm implementation may not implement all of these functions. In order to be a consistent set of functions a provider must implement OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx and OSSL_FUNC_kem_freectx. It must also implement both of OSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate_init and OSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate, or both of OSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate_init and OSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate. OSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params is optional but if it is present then so must OSSL_FUNC_kem_gettable_ctx_params. Similarly, OSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params is optional but if it is present then so must OSSL_FUNC_kem_settable_ctx_params.</p>
<p>An asymmetric kem algorithm must also implement some mechanism for generating, loading or importing keys via the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation. See <a href="../man7/provider-keymgmt.html">provider-keymgmt(7)</a> for further details.</p>
<h2 id="Context-Management-Functions">Context Management Functions</h2>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx() should create and return a pointer to a provider side structure for holding context information during an asymmetric kem operation. A pointer to this context will be passed back in a number of the other asymmetric kem operation function calls. The parameter <i>provctx</i> is the provider context generated during provider initialisation (see <a href="../man7/provider.html">provider(7)</a>).</p>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_freectx() is passed a pointer to the provider side asymmetric kem context in the <i>ctx</i> parameter. This function should free any resources associated with that context.</p>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_dupctx() should duplicate the provider side asymmetric kem context in the <i>ctx</i> parameter and return the duplicate copy.</p>
<h2 id="Asymmetric-Key-Encapsulation-Functions">Asymmetric Key Encapsulation Functions</h2>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate_init() initialises a context for an asymmetric encapsulation given a provider side asymmetric kem context in the <i>ctx</i> parameter, a pointer to a provider key object in the <i>provkey</i> parameter and the <i>name</i> of the algorithm. The <i>params</i>, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to using OSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params(). The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see provider-keymgmt(7)>.</p>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate() performs the actual encapsulation itself. A previously initialised asymmetric kem context is passed in the <i>ctx</i> parameter. Unless <i>out</i> is NULL, the data to be encapsulated is internally generated, and returned into the buffer pointed to by the <i>secret</i> parameter and the encapsulated data should also be written to the location pointed to by the <i>out</i> parameter. The length of the encapsulated data should be written to <i>*outlen</i> and the length of the generated secret should be written to <i>*secretlen</i>.</p>
<p>If <i>out</i> is NULL then the maximum length of the encapsulated data should be written to <i>*outlen</i>, and the maximum length of the generated secret should be written to <i>*secretlen</i>.</p>
<h2 id="Decapsulation-Functions">Decapsulation Functions</h2>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate_init() initialises a context for an asymmetric decapsulation given a provider side asymmetric kem context in the <i>ctx</i> parameter, a pointer to a provider key object in the <i>provkey</i> parameter, and a <i>name</i> of the algorithm. The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see provider-keymgmt(7)>.</p>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate() performs the actual decapsulation itself. A previously initialised asymmetric kem context is passed in the <i>ctx</i> parameter. The data to be decapsulated is pointed to by the <i>in</i> parameter which is <i>inlen</i> bytes long. Unless <i>out</i> is NULL, the decapsulated data should be written to the location pointed to by the <i>out</i> parameter. The length of the decapsulated data should be written to <i>*outlen</i>. If <i>out</i> is NULL then the maximum length of the decapsulated data should be written to <i>*outlen</i>.</p>
<h2 id="Asymmetric-Key-Encapsulation-Parameters">Asymmetric Key Encapsulation Parameters</h2>
<p>See <a href="../man3/OSSL_PARAM.html">OSSL_PARAM(3)</a> for further details on the parameters structure used by the OSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params() functions.</p>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params() gets asymmetric kem parameters associated with the given provider side asymmetric kem context <i>ctx</i> and stores them in <i>params</i>. Passing NULL for <i>params</i> should return true.</p>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params() sets the asymmetric kem parameters associated with the given provider side asymmetric kem context <i>ctx</i> to <i>params</i>. Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set. Passing NULL for <i>params</i> should return true.</p>
<p>No parameters are currently recognised by built-in asymmetric kem algorithms.</p>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_gettable_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_kem_settable_ctx_params() get a constant <b>OSSL_PARAM</b> array that describes the gettable and settable parameters, i.e. parameters that can be used with OSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params() respectively. See <a href="../man3/OSSL_PARAM.html">OSSL_PARAM(3)</a> for the use of <b>OSSL_PARAM</b> as parameter descriptor.</p>
<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>
<p>OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx() and OSSL_FUNC_kem_dupctx() should return the newly created provider side asymmetric kem context, or NULL on failure.</p>
<p>All other functions should return 1 for success or 0 on error.</p>
