You can use PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH to build the algorithm value for a
hash-and-sign algorithm in a policy. Then the policy allows usage with
this hash-and-sign family with any hash.
Test that PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH-based policies allow a specific hash, but
not a different hash-and-sign family. Test that PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH is
not valid for operations, only in policies.
Test for a subclass of public-key algorithm: those that perform
full-domain hashing, i.e. algorithms that can be broken down as
sign(key, hash(message)).
Remove the type and bits arguments to psa_allocate_key() and
psa_create_key(). They can be useful if the implementation wants to
know exactly how much space to allocate for the slot, but many
implementations (including ours) don't care, and it's possible to work
around their lack by deferring size-dependent actions to the time when
the key material is created. They are a burden to applications and
make the API more complex, and the benefits aren't worth it.
Change the API and adapt the implementation, the units test and the
sample code accordingly.
Change the key derivation API to take inputs in multiple steps,
instead of a single one-site-fits-poorly function.
Conflicts:
* include/psa/crypto.h: merge independent changes in the documentation
of psa_key_agreement (public_key from the work on public key formats
vs general description and other parameters in the work on key derivation).
* tests/suites/test_suite_psa_crypto.data: update the key agreement
tests from the work on key derivation to the format from the work on
public key formats.

addition of unrelated ALG_IS_xxx macros
Get rid of "key selection" algorithms (of which there was only one:
raw key selection).
Encode key agreement by combining a raw key agreement with a KDF,
rather than passing the KDF as an argument of a key agreement macro.
The normal way is to pass the shared secret to a key derivation.
Having an ad hoc function will allow us to simplify the possible
behaviors of key agreement and get rid of "key selection" algorithms
which are a hard-to-understand invention of this API.
It isn't a good fit. It's overly complex for what the API can do now,
which is Diffie-Hellman. Consider it again later for more complex use
cases such as authenticated key exchanges.
Use separate step types for a KDF secret and for the private key in a
key agreement.
Determine which key type is allowed from the step type, independently
of the KDF.
Forbid raw inputs for certain steps. They definitely should be
forbidden for asymmetric keys, which are structured. Also forbid them
for KDF secrets: the secrets are supposed to be keys, even if they're
unstructured.
Add the ability to specify Diffie-Hellman key exchange keys. Specify the
import/export format as well, even though importing and exporting isn't
implemented yet.
Remove front matter and DSS parameters from our DSA key formats, both
keypair and public key, to make it just a representation of the integer
private key, `x`, or the public key, `y`, respectively.
DSA and static DH need extra domain parameters. Instead of passing these
in with the keys themselves, add get and set functions to set and
retrieve this information about keys.
Add a new function mbedtls_asn1_write_named_bitstring() that removes
trailing 0s at the end of DER encoded bitstrings. The function is
implemented according to Hanno Becker's suggestions.
This commit also changes the functions x509write_crt_set_ns_cert_type
and crt_set_key_usage to call the new function as the use named
bitstrings instead of the regular bitstrings.
Remove front matter from our EC key format, to make it just the contents
of an ECPoint as defined by SEC1 section 2.3.3.
As a consequence of the simplification, remove the restriction on not
being able to use an ECDH key with ECDSA. There is no longer any OID
specified when importing a key, so we can't reject importing of an ECDH
key for the purpose of ECDSA based on the OID.

Finish changing "start" to "set up".
Correct the way to set an IV for decryption: it's set_iv(), not
update().
When decrypting, the IV is given, not random.
Test for a subclass of public-key algorithm: those that perform
full-domain hashing, i.e. algorithms that can be broken down as
sign(key, hash(message)).
Remove pkcs-1 and rsaEncryption front matter from RSA public keys. Move
code that was shared between RSA and other key types (like EC keys) to
be used only with non-RSA keys.
Copy the nice and clear documentation from psa_export_key() as to what
implementations are allowed to do regarding key export formats, as the
same applies to public keys.
hash_setup and mac_setup used to be called hash_start and mac_start,
but we've now converged on _setup as names. Finish making the
terminology in the documentation consistent.
We've added documentation for how context objects for multi-part
operations must be initialized consistently for key policy, hash,
cipher, and MAC. Update the generator documentation to be consistent
with how we've documented the other operations.
Add new initializers for cipher operation objects and use them in our
tests and library code. Prefer using the macro initializers due to their
straightforwardness.
The struct psa_cipher_operation_s is built with a
mbedtls_cipher_context_t. The shape of mbedtls_cipher_context_t and an
initializer that works with Clang 5.0 and its
-Wmissing-field-initializers varies based on the configuration of the
library. Instead of making multiple initializers based on a maze of
ifdefs for all combinations of MBEDTLS_CIPHER_MODE_WITH_PADDING,
MBEDTLS_CMAC_C, and MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO, add a dummy variable to
psa_cipher_operation_s's union that encloses mbedtls_cipher_context_t.
This allows us to initialize the dummy with a Clang-approved initializer
and have it properly initialize the entire object.
Add new initializers for MAC operation objects and use them in our tests
and library code. Prefer using the macro initializers due to their
straightforwardness.
Add new initializers for hash operation objects and use them in our
tests and library code. Prefer using the macro initializers due to their
straightforwardness.
Add new initializers for key policies and use them in our docs, example
programs, tests, and library code. Prefer using the macro initializers
due to their straightforwardness.
As there are some definitions that are defined regardless of
whether MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE is defined or not, these definitions
need to be moved outside the MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT guards. This is a simple
move as MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT and MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE are mutually
exclusive options.
