[src]

method_name

const char * method_name

Printable string representing the name of the signature scheme.

[src]

alg_version

const char * alg_version

Printable string representing the version of the cryptographic algorithm.

Implementations with the same method_name and same alg_version will be interoperable. See README.md for information about algorithm compatibility.

[src]

claimed_nist_level

uint8_t claimed_nist_level

The NIST security level (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) claimed in this algorithm's original NIST submission.

[src]

euf_cma

bool euf_cma

Whether the signature offers EUF-CMA security (TRUE) or not (FALSE).

[src]

length_public_key

size_t length_public_key

The (maximum) length, in bytes, of public keys for this signature scheme.

[src]

length_secret_key

size_t length_secret_key

The (maximum) length, in bytes, of secret keys for this signature scheme.

[src]

length_signature

size_t length_signature

The (maximum) length, in bytes, of signatures for this signature scheme.

[src]

keypair

OQS_STATUS(* keypair)(uint8_t *public_key, uint8_t *secret_key)

Keypair generation algorithm.

Caller is responsible for allocating sufficient memory for public_key and secret_key, based on the length_* members in this object or the per-scheme compile-time macros OQS_SIG_*_length_*.

Parameters

	public_key	The public key represented as a byte string.
	secret_key	The secret key represented as a byte string.

Returns

OQS_SUCCESS or OQS_ERROR

[src]

sign

OQS_STATUS(* sign)(uint8_t *signature, size_t *signature_len, const uint8_t *message, size_t message_len, const uint8_t *secret_key)

Signature generation algorithm.

Caller is responsible for allocating sufficient memory for signature, based on the length_* members in this object or the per-scheme compile-time macros OQS_SIG_*_length_*.

Parameters

	signature	The signature on the message represented as a byte string.
	signature_len	The actual length of the signature. May be smaller than length_signature for some algorithms since some algorithms have variable length signatures.
	message	The message to sign represented as a byte string.
	message_len	The length of the message to sign.
	secret_key	The secret key represented as a byte string.

Returns

OQS_SUCCESS or OQS_ERROR

[src]

verify

OQS_STATUS(* verify)(const uint8_t *message, size_t message_len, const uint8_t *signature, size_t signature_len, const uint8_t *public_key)

Signature verification algorithm.

Parameters

	message	The message represented as a byte string.
	message_len	The length of the message.
	signature	The signature on the message represented as a byte string.
	signature_len	The length of the signature.
	public_key	The public key represented as a byte string.

Returns

OQS_SUCCESS or OQS_ERROR
