kcapi_kpp_keygen_aio — generate a public key (asynchronous one shot)
int32_t kcapi_kpp_keygen_aio ( | struct kcapi_handle * handle, |
struct iovec * outiov, | |
uint32_t iovlen, | |
int access) ; |
handle
[in] cipher handle
outiov
[out] head of scatter-gather list of the destination buffers filled with the generated public key
iovlen
[in] number of scatter-gather list entries
access
[in] kernel access type (KCAPI_ACCESS_HEURISTIC - use internal heuristic for fastest kernel access; KCAPI_ACCESS_VMSPLICE - use vmsplice access; KCAPI_ACCESS_SENDMSG - sendmsg access)
The individual scatter-gather list entries are processed with separate invocations of the the given cipher.
The memory should be aligned at the page boundary using posix_memalign(sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE)), If it is not aligned at the page boundary, the vmsplice call may not send all data to the kernel.
return
number of bytes verify upon success;
a negative errno-style error code if an error occurred
