=pod =head1 NAME EVP_PKEY-SM2, EVP_KEYMGMT-SM2, SM2 - EVP_PKEY keytype support for the Chinese SM2 signature and encryption algorithms =head1 DESCRIPTION The B<SM2> algorithm was first defined by the Chinese national standard GM/T 0003-2012 and was later standardized by ISO as ISO/IEC 14888. B<SM2> is actually an elliptic curve based algorithm. The current implementation in OpenSSL supports both signature and encryption schemes via the EVP interface. When doing the B<SM2> signature algorithm, it requires a distinguishing identifier to form the message prefix which is hashed before the real message is hashed. =head2 Common SM2 parameters SM2 uses the parameters defined in L<EVP_PKEY-EC(7)/Common EC parameters>. The following parameters are different: =over 4 =item "cofactor" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_EC_COFACTOR>) <unsigned integer> This parameter is ignored for B<SM2>. =item (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_DEFAULT_DIGEST>) <UTF8 string> Getter that returns the default digest name. (Currently returns "SM3" as of OpenSSL 3.0). =back =head1 NOTES B<SM2> signatures can be generated by using the 'DigestSign' series of APIs, for instance, EVP_DigestSignInit(), EVP_DigestSignUpdate() and EVP_DigestSignFinal(). Ditto for the verification process by calling the 'DigestVerify' series of APIs. Before computing an B<SM2> signature, an B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> needs to be created, and an B<SM2> ID must be set for it, like this: EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id(pctx, id, id_len); Before calling the EVP_DigestSignInit() or EVP_DigestVerifyInit() functions, that B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> should be assigned to the B<EVP_MD_CTX>, like this: EVP_MD_CTX_set_pkey_ctx(mctx, pctx); There is normally no need to pass a B<pctx> parameter to EVP_DigestSignInit() or EVP_DigestVerifyInit() in such a scenario. SM2 can be tested with the L<openssl-speed(1)> application since version 3.0. Currently, the only valid algorithm name is B<sm2>. Since version 3.0, SM2 keys can be generated and loaded only when the domain parameters specify the SM2 elliptic curve. =head1 EXAMPLES This example demonstrates the calling sequence for using an B<EVP_PKEY> to verify a message with the SM2 signature algorithm and the SM3 hash algorithm: #include <openssl/evp.h> /* obtain an EVP_PKEY using whatever methods... */ mctx = EVP_MD_CTX_new(); pctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(pkey, NULL); EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id(pctx, id, id_len); EVP_MD_CTX_set_pkey_ctx(mctx, pctx); EVP_DigestVerifyInit(mctx, NULL, EVP_sm3(), NULL, pkey); EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate(mctx, msg, msg_len); EVP_DigestVerifyFinal(mctx, sig, sig_len) =head1 SEE ALSO L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(3)>, L<EVP_DigestSignInit(3)>, L<EVP_DigestVerifyInit(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id(3)>, L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_pkey_ctx(3)> =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright 2018-2021 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
