kcapi_kpp_ssgen_aio — generate a shared secret (asynchronous one shot)
int32_t kcapi_kpp_ssgen_aio ( | struct kcapi_handle * handle, |
| struct iovec * iniov, | |
| struct iovec * outiov, | |
| uint32_t iovlen, | |
int access); |
handle[in] cipher handle
iniov[in] head of scatter-gather list of the source buffers with the public keys of the peer
outiov[out] head of scatter-gather list of the destination buffers filled with the generated shared secret
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
