Secure element driver registration#

psa_register_se_driver#

psa_status_t psa_register_se_driver (psa_key_location_t location, const psa_drv_se_t *methods)

Register an external cryptoprocessor (secure element) driver.

This function is only intended to be used by driver code, not by application code. In implementations with separation between the PSA cryptography module and applications, this function should only be available to callers that run in the same memory space as the cryptography module, and should not be exposed to applications running in a different memory space.

This function may be called before psa_crypto_init(). It is implementation-defined whether this function may be called after psa_crypto_init().

Note

• Implementations store metadata about keys including the lifetime value, which contains the driver's location indicator. Therefore, from one instantiation of the PSA Cryptography library to the next one, if there is a key in storage with a certain lifetime value, you must always register the same driver (or an updated version that communicates with the same secure element) with the same location value.

Returns

• PSA_SUCCESS The driver was successfully registered. Applications can now use location to access keys through the methods passed to this function.

• PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE This function was called after the initialization of the cryptography module, and this implementation does not support driver registration at this stage.

• PSA_ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS There is already a registered driver for this value of location.

• PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENTlocation is a reserved value.

• PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTEDmethods->hal_version is not supported by this implementation.

• PSA_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY

• PSA_ERROR_NOT_PERMITTED

• PSA_ERROR_STORAGE_FAILURE

• PSA_ERROR_DATA_CORRUPT
