psa_hash_operation_s struct

Set up a multipart hash operation. The sequence of operations to calculate a hash (message digest) is as follows: -# Allocate an operation object which will be passed to all the functions listed here. -# Initialize the operation object with one of the methods described in the documentation for #psa_hash_operation_t, e.g. #PSA_HASH_OPERATION_INIT. -# Call psa_hash_setup() to specify the algorithm. -# Call psa_hash_update() zero, one or more times, passing a fragment of the message each time. The hash that is calculated is the hash of the concatenation of these messages in order. -# To calculate the hash, call psa_hash_finish(). To compare the hash with an expected value, call psa_hash_verify(). If an error occurs at any step after a call to psa_hash_setup(), the operation will need to be reset by a call to psa_hash_abort(). The application may call psa_hash_abort() at any time after the operation has been initialized. After a successful call to psa_hash_setup(), the application must eventually terminate the operation. The following events terminate an operation: - A successful call to psa_hash_finish() or psa_hash_verify(). - A call to psa_hash_abort().

Add a message fragment to a multipart hash operation. The application must call psa_hash_setup() before calling this function. If this function returns an error status, the operation enters an error state and must be aborted by calling psa_hash_abort().

Finish the calculation of the hash of a message. The application must call psa_hash_setup() before calling this function. This function calculates the hash of the message formed by concatenating the inputs passed to preceding calls to psa_hash_update(). When this function returns successfully, the operation becomes inactive. If this function returns an error status, the operation enters an error state and must be aborted by calling psa_hash_abort(). \warning Applications should not call this function if they expect a specific value for the hash. Call psa_hash_verify() instead. Beware that comparing integrity or authenticity data such as hash values with a function such as \c memcmp is risky because the time taken by the comparison may leak information about the hashed data which could allow an attacker to guess a valid hash and thereby bypass security controls.

Finish the calculation of the hash of a message and compare it with an expected value. The application must call psa_hash_setup() before calling this function. This function calculates the hash of the message formed by concatenating the inputs passed to preceding calls to psa_hash_update(). It then compares the calculated hash with the expected hash passed as a parameter to this function. When this function returns successfully, the operation becomes inactive. If this function returns an error status, the operation enters an error state and must be aborted by calling psa_hash_abort().

Abort a hash operation. Aborting an operation frees all associated resources except for the \p operation structure itself. Once aborted, the operation object can be reused for another operation by calling psa_hash_setup() again. You may call this function any time after the operation object has been initialized by one of the methods described in #psa_hash_operation_t. In particular, calling psa_hash_abort() after the operation has been terminated by a call to psa_hash_abort(), psa_hash_finish() or psa_hash_verify() is safe and has no effect.

Clone a hash operation. This function copies the state of an ongoing hash operation to a new operation object. In other words, this function is equivalent to calling psa_hash_setup() on \p target_operation with the same algorithm that \p source_operation was set up for, then psa_hash_update() on \p target_operation with the same input that that was passed to \p source_operation. After this function returns, the two objects are independent, i.e. subsequent calls involving one of the objects do not affect the other object.
