The function `mbedtls_mpi_write_binary()` writes big endian byte order,
but we need to be able to write little endian in some caseses. (For
example when handling keys corresponding to Montgomery curves.)
Used `echo xx | tac -rs ..` to transform the test data to little endian.
The private keys used in ECDH differ in the case of Weierstrass and
Montgomery curves. They have different constraints, the former is based
on big endian, the latter little endian byte order. The fundamental
approach is different too:
- Weierstrass keys have to be in the right interval, otherwise they are
rejected.
- Any byte array of the right size is a valid Montgomery key and it
needs to be masked before interpreting it as a number.
Historically it was sufficient to use mbedtls_mpi_read_binary() to read
private keys, but as a preparation to improve support for Montgomery
curves we add mbedtls_ecp_read_key() to enable uniform treatment of EC
keys.
For the masking the `mbedtls_mpi_set_bit()` function is used. This is
suboptimal but seems to provide the best trade-off at this time.
Alternatives considered:
- Making a copy of the input buffer (less efficient)
- removing the `const` constraint from the input buffer (breaks the api
and makes it less user friendly)
- applying the mask directly to the limbs (violates the api between the
modules and creates and unwanted dependency)
The function `mbedtls_mpi_read_binary()` expects big endian byte order,
but we need to be able to read from little endian in some caseses. (For
example when handling keys corresponding to Montgomery curves.)
Used `echo xx | tac -rs .. | tr [a-z] [A-Z]` to transform the test data
to little endian and `echo "ibase=16;xx" | bc` to convert to decimal.
Define MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT in config.h instead of hard-coding
this in ecdh.h so that its absence can be tested. Document it as
experimental so that we reserve the right to change it in the future.
When building for the PSA crypto service (defined(PSA_CRYPTO_SECURE)),
define psa_key_owner_id_t as int32_t, which is how a PSA platform
encodes partition identity. Note that this only takes effect when the
build option MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER is active.
Support this configuration in the ITS backend.
Declare the owner as psa_key_owner_id_t, of which an implementation
must be provided separately.
Make this a configuration option
MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER, to make the conditional
compilation flow easier to follow. Declare it in config.h to
pacify check_names.sh.
Support for a specific implementation of psa_key_owner_id_t in storage
backends will come in a subsequent commit.
Differentiate between _key identifiers_, which are always `uint32_t`,
and _key file identifiers_, which are platform-dependent. Normally,
the two are the same.
In `psa/crypto_platform.h`, define `psa_app_key_id_t` (which is always
32 bits, the standard key identifier type) and
`psa_key_file_id_t` (which will be different in some service builds).
A subsequent commit will introduce a platform where the two are different.
It would make sense for the function declarations in `psa/crypto.h` to
use `psa_key_file_id_t`. However this file is currently part of the
PSA Crypto API specification, so it must stick to the standard type
`psa_key_id_t`. Hence, as long as the specification and Mbed Crypto
are not separate, use the implementation-specific file
`psa/crypto_platform.h` to define `psa_key_id_t` as `psa_key_file_id_t`.
In the library, systematically use `psa_key_file_id_t`.

This commit improves hygiene and formatting of macro definitions
throughout the library. Specifically:
- It adds brackets around parameters to avoid unintended
interpretation of arguments, e.g. due to operator precedence.
- It adds uses of the `do { ... } while( 0 )` idiom for macros that
can be used as commands.
This is the first in a series of commits adding client-side
support for PSA-based ECDHE.
Previously, the state of an ECDHE key agreement was maintained
in the field mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params::ecdh_ctx, of type
::mbedtls_ecdh_context and manipulated through the ECDH API.
The ECDH API will be superseeded by the PSA Crypto API for key
agreement, which needs the following data:
(a) A raw buffer holding the public part of the key agreement
received from our peer.
(b) A key slot holding the private part of the key agreement.
(c) The algorithm to use.
The commit adds fields to ::mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params
representing these three inputs to PSA-based key agreement.
Specifically, it adds a field for the key slot holding the
ECDH private key, a field for the EC curve identifier, and
a buffer holding the peer's public key.
Note: Storing the peer's public key buffer is slightly
inefficient, as one could perform the ECDH computation
as soon as the peer sends its public key, either working
with in-place or using a stack-buffer to reformat the
public key before passing it to PSA. This optimization
is left for a later commit.
PSA spec now defines more generic PSA storage types instead of the ITS
specific ones. This is necessary in order to integrate with
the newer implementation of PSA ITS landing in Mbed OS soon.
Changes include the following:
- psa_status_t replaces psa_its_status_t
- psa_storage_info_t replaces psa_its_info_t
- psa_storage_uid_t replaces psa_its_uid_t

Context:
The existing API `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()` for parsing DER
encoded X.509 CRTs unconditionally makes creates a copy of the
input buffer in RAM. While this comes at the benefit of easy use,
-- specifically: allowing the user to free or re-use the input
buffer right after the call -- it creates a significant memory
overhead, as the CRT is duplicated in memory (at least temporarily).
This might not be tolerable a resource constrained device.
As a remedy, this commit adds a new X.509 API call
`mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der_nocopy()`
which has the same signature as `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()`
and almost the same semantics, with one difference: The input
buffer must persist and be unmodified for the lifetime of the
established instance of `mbedtls_x509_crt`, that is, until
`mbedtls_x509_crt_free()` is called.
Resolve incompatibilties in the RSA module where changes made for
parameter validation prevent Mbed Crypto from working. Mbed Crypto
depends on being able to pass zero-length buffers that are NULL to RSA
encryption functions.
This reverts commit 2f660d047dd60ac68ebe6c8d4da0d141403b6d71.
