Member Function Documentation

◆ hasKey()

bool ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::hasKey ( const Name keyName) const

Check if the key with name keyName exists in the TPM.

Returns
True if the key exists, false otherwise.

Definition at line 39 of file back-end.cpp.

Referenced by createKey(), exportKey(), and importKey().

◆ getKeyHandle()

unique_ptr< KeyHandle > ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::getKeyHandle ( const Name keyName) const

Get the handle of the key with name keyName.

Calling this function multiple times with the same keyName will return different KeyHandle objects that all refer to the same key.

Returns
The handle of the key, or nullptr if the key does not exist.

Definition at line 45 of file back-end.cpp.

◆ createKey()

unique_ptr< KeyHandle > ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::createKey ( const Name identityName,
const KeyParams params 
)

Create a key for identityName according to params.

Returns
The handle of the created key.
Exceptions
Tpm::Errorparams are invalid.
ErrorThe key could not be created.

Definition at line 51 of file back-end.cpp.

◆ deleteKey()

void ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::deleteKey ( const Name keyName)

Delete the key with name keyName.

Warning
Continuing to use existing KeyHandle objects for a deleted key results in undefined behavior.
Exceptions
ErrorThe key could not be deleted.

Definition at line 86 of file back-end.cpp.

◆ exportKey()

ConstBufferPtr ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::exportKey ( const Name keyName,
const char *  pw,
size_t  pwLen 
)

Get the private key with name keyName in encrypted PKCS #8 format.

Parameters
keyNameThe name of the key.
pwThe password to encrypt the private key.
pwLenThe length of the password.
Returns
The encoded private key.
Exceptions
ErrorThe key does not exist or cannot be exported.

Definition at line 92 of file back-end.cpp.

◆ importKey()

void ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::importKey ( const Name keyName,
const uint8_t *  pkcs8,
size_t  pkcs8Len,
const char *  pw,
size_t  pwLen 
)

Import a private key in encrypted PKCS #8 format.

Parameters
keyNameThe name of the key to use in the TPM.
pkcs8Pointer to the key in encrypted PKCS #8 format.
pkcs8LenThe size of the key in encrypted PKCS #8 format.
pwThe password to decrypt the private key.
pwLenThe length of the password.
Exceptions
ErrorThe key could not be imported.

Definition at line 101 of file back-end.cpp.

◆ isTerminalMode()

bool ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::isTerminalMode ( ) const
virtual

Check if the TPM is in terminal mode.

The default implementation always returns true.

Returns
True if in terminal mode, false otherwise.

Reimplemented in ndn::security::DummyTpm, and ndn::security::tpm::BackEndOsx.

Definition at line 142 of file back-end.cpp.

◆ setTerminalMode()

void ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::setTerminalMode ( bool  isTerminal) const
virtual

Set the terminal mode of the TPM.

In terminal mode, the TPM will not ask for a password from the GUI. The default implementation does nothing.

Reimplemented in ndn::security::DummyTpm, and ndn::security::tpm::BackEndOsx.

Definition at line 148 of file back-end.cpp.

◆ isTpmLocked()

bool ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::isTpmLocked ( ) const
virtual

Check if the TPM is locked.

The default implementation always returns false.

Returns
True if locked, false otherwise.

Reimplemented in ndn::security::DummyTpm, and ndn::security::tpm::BackEndOsx.

Definition at line 153 of file back-end.cpp.

Referenced by unlockTpm().

◆ unlockTpm()

bool ndn::security::tpm::BackEnd::unlockTpm ( const char *  pw,
size_t  pwLen 
) const
virtual

Unlock the TPM.

The default implementation does nothing and returns !isTpmLocked().

Parameters
pwThe password to unlock the TPM.
pwLenThe length of the password.
Returns
True if the TPM was unlocked.

Reimplemented in ndn::security::tpm::BackEndOsx.

Definition at line 159 of file back-end.cpp.
