psa_status_t psa_asymmetric_decrypt ( mbedtls_svc_key_id_t  key,
psa_algorithm_t  alg,
const uint8_t *  input,
size_t  input_length,
const uint8_t *  salt,
size_t  salt_length,
uint8_t *  output,
size_t  output_size,
size_t *  output_length 
)

Decrypt a short message with a private key.

Parameters
keyIdentifier of the key to use for the operation. It must be an asymmetric key pair. It must allow the usage PSA_KEY_USAGE_DECRYPT.
algAn asymmetric encryption algorithm that is compatible with the type of key.
[in]inputThe message to decrypt.
input_lengthSize of the input buffer in bytes.
[in]saltA salt or label, if supported by the encryption algorithm. If the algorithm does not support a salt, pass NULL. If the algorithm supports an optional salt and you do not want to pass a salt, pass NULL.

)

Encrypt a short message with a public key.

Parameters
keyIdentifer of the key to use for the operation. It must be a public key or an asymmetric key pair. It must allow the usage PSA_KEY_USAGE_ENCRYPT.
algAn asymmetric encryption algorithm that is compatible with the type of key.
[in]inputThe message to encrypt.
input_lengthSize of the input buffer in bytes.
[in]saltA salt or label, if supported by the encryption algorithm. If the algorithm does not support a salt, pass NULL. If the algorithm supports an optional salt and you do not want to pass a salt, pass NULL.

size_t  hash_length,
uint8_t *  signature,
size_t  signature_size,
size_t *  signature_length 
)

Sign a hash or short message with a private key.

Note that to perform a hash-and-sign signature algorithm, you must first calculate the hash by calling psa_hash_setup(), psa_hash_update() and psa_hash_finish(). Then pass the resulting hash as the hash parameter to this function. You can use PSA_ALG_SIGN_GET_HASH(alg) to determine the hash algorithm to use.

Parameters
keyIdentifier of the key to use for the operation. It must be an asymmetric key pair. The key must allow the usage PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_HASH.
algA signature algorithm that is compatible with the type of key.
[in]hashThe hash or message to sign.
hash_lengthSize of the hash buffer in bytes.
[out]signatureBuffer where the signature is to be written.
signature_sizeSize of the signature buffer in bytes.
[out]signature_lengthOn success, the number of bytes that make up the returned signature value.
Return values
PSA_SUCCESS
PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE
PSA_ERROR_NOT_PERMITTED
PSA_ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALLThe size of the signature buffer is too small. You can determine a sufficient buffer size by calling #PSA_SIGN_OUTPUT_SIZE(key_type, key_bits, alg) where key_type and key_bits are the type and bit-size respectively of key.
PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED
PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT
PSA_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY
PSA_ERROR_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE
PSA_ERROR_HARDWARE_FAILURE
PSA_ERROR_CORRUPTION_DETECTED
PSA_ERROR_STORAGE_FAILURE
PSA_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_ENTROPY
PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATEThe library has not been previously initialized by psa_crypto_init(). It is implementation-dependent whether a failure to initialize results in this error code.

Note that to perform a hash-and-sign signature algorithm, you must first calculate the hash by calling psa_hash_setup(), psa_hash_update() and psa_hash_finish(). Then pass the resulting hash as the hash parameter to this function. You can use PSA_ALG_SIGN_GET_HASH(alg) to determine the hash algorithm to use.

Parameters
handleHandle to the key to use for the operation. It must be an asymmetric key pair.

Verify the signature a hash or short message using a public key.
