FFI (C Binding)
========================================
.. versionadded:: 2.0.0
Botan's ffi module provides a C89 binding intended to be easily usable with other
language's foreign function interface (FFI) libraries. For instance the included
Python wrapper uses Python's ``ctypes`` module and the C89 API. This API is of
course also useful for programs written directly in C.
Code examples can be found in `the tests
<https://github.com/randombit/botan/blob/master/src/tests/test_ffi.cpp>`_ as
well as the implementations of the various `language bindings
<https://github.com/randombit/botan/wiki/Language-Bindings>`_. At the time of
this writing, the Python and Rust bindings are probably the most comprehensive.
Rules of Engagement
---------------------
Writing language bindings for C or C++ libraries is typically a tedious and
bug-prone experience. This FFI layer was designed to make the experience, if not
pleasant, at least straighforward.
* All objects manipulated by the API are opaque structs. Each struct is tagged
with a 32-bit magic number which is unique to its type; accidentally passing
the wrong object type to a function will result in a
:cpp:enumerator:`BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INVALID_OBJECT` error, instead of a crash or
memory corruption.
* (Almost) all functions return an integer error code indicating success or
failure. The exception is a small handful of version query functions, which
are guaranteed to never fail. All functions returning errors use the same
set of error codes.
* The set of types used is small and commonly supported: ``uint8_t`` arrays for
binary data, ``size_t`` for lengths, and NULL-terminated UTF-8 encoded
strings.
* No ownership of pointers crosses the boundary. If the library is producing
output, it does so by either writing to a buffer that was provided by the
application, or calling a view callback.
In the first case, the application typically passes both an output buffer and
a pointer to a length field. On entry, the length field should be set to the
number of bytes available in the output buffer. If there is sufficient room,
the output is written to the buffer, the actual number of bytes written is
returned in the length field, and the function returns 0 (success). Otherwise,
the number of bytes required is placed in the length parameter, and then
:cpp:enumerator:`BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER_SPACE` is returned.
In most cases, for this style of function, there is also a function which
allows querying the actual (or possibly upper bound) number of bytes in the
function's output. For example calling :cpp:func:`botan_hash_output_length`
allows the application to determine in advance the number of bytes that
:cpp:func:`botan_hash_final` will want to write.
In some situations, it is not possible to determine exactly what the output
size of the function will be in advance. Here the FFI layer uses what it terms
:ref:`view_functions`; callbacks that are allowed to view the entire output of
the function, but once the callback returns, no further access is allowed.
View functions are called with an opaque pointer provided by the application,
which allows passing arbitrary context information.
Return Codes
---------------
Almost all functions in the Botan C interface return an ``int`` error code. The
only exceptions are a handful of functions (like
:cpp:func:`botan_ffi_api_version`) which cannot fail in any circumstances.
The FFI functions return a non-negative integer (usually 0) to indicate success,
or a negative integer to represent an error. A few functions (like
:cpp:func:`botan_block_cipher_block_size`) return positive integers instead of
zero on success.
The error codes returned in certain error situations may change over time. This
especially applies to very generic errors like
:cpp:enumerator:`BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_EXCEPTION_THROWN` and
:cpp:enumerator:`BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ERROR`. For instance, before 2.8, setting
an invalid key length resulted in :cpp:enumerator:`BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_EXCEPTION_THROWN`
but now this is specially handled and returns
:cpp:enumerator:`BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH` instead.
The following enum values are defined in the FFI header:
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_SUCCESS = 0
Generally returned to indicate success
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_INVALID_VERIFIER = 1
Note this value is positive, but still represents an error condition. In
indicates that the function completed successfully, but the value provided
was not correct. For example :cpp:func:`botan_bcrypt_is_valid` returns this
value if the password did not match the hash.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INVALID_INPUT = -1
The input was invalid. (Currently this error return is not used.)
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_BAD_MAC = -2
While decrypting in an AEAD mode, the tag failed to verify.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER_SPACE = -10
Functions which write a variable amount of space return this if the indicated
buffer length was insufficient to write the data. In that case, the output
length parameter is set to the size that is required.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_STRING_CONVERSION_ERROR = -11
A string view function which attempts to convert a string to a specified
charset, and fails, can use this function to indicate the error.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_EXCEPTION_THROWN = -20
An exception was thrown while processing this request, but no further
details are available.
.. note::
If the environment variable ``BOTAN_FFI_PRINT_EXCEPTIONS`` is set to any
non-empty value, then any exception which is caught by the FFI layer will
first print the exception message to stderr before returning an
error. This is sometimes useful for debugging.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY = -21
Memory allocation failed
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_SYSTEM_ERROR = -22
A system call failed
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INTERNAL_ERROR = -23
An internal bug was encountered (please open a ticket on github)
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_BAD_FLAG = -30
A value provided in a `flag` variable was unknown.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_NULL_POINTER = -31
A null pointer was provided as an argument where that is not allowed.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_BAD_PARAMETER = -32
An argument did not match the function.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_KEY_NOT_SET = -33
An object that requires a key normally must be keyed before use (eg before
encrypting or MACing data). If this is not done, the operation will fail and
return this error code.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH = -34
An invalid key length was provided with a call to ``foo_set_key``.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INVALID_OBJECT_STATE = -35
An operation was invoked that makes sense for the object, but it is in the
wrong state to perform it.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED = -40
This is returned if the functionality is not available for some reason. For
example if you call :cpp:func:`botan_hash_init` with a named hash function
which is not enabled, this error is returned.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_INVALID_OBJECT = -50
This is used if an object provided did not match the function. For example
calling :cpp:func:`botan_hash_destroy` on a ``botan_rng_t`` object will cause
this error.
.. cpp:enumerator:: BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ERROR = -100
Something bad happened, but we are not sure why or how.
Error values below -10000 are reserved for the application (these can be returned
from view functions).
Further information about the error that occured is available via
.. cpp:function:: const char* botan_error_last_exception_message()
.. versionadded:: 3.0.0
Returns a static string stored in a thread local variable which contains
the last exception message thrown.
.. warning::
This string buffer is overwritten on the next call to the FFI layer
Versioning
----------------------------------------
.. cpp:function:: uint32_t botan_ffi_api_version()
Returns the version of the currently supported FFI API. This is
expressed in the form YYYYMMDD of the release date of this version
of the API.
.. cpp:function:: int botan_ffi_supports_api(uint32_t version)
Returns 0 iff the FFI version specified is supported by this
library. Otherwise returns -1. The expression
botan_ffi_supports_api(botan_ffi_api_version()) will always
evaluate to 0. A particular version of the library may also support
other (older) versions of the FFI API.
.. cpp:function:: const char* botan_version_string()
Returns a free-form string describing the version. The return
value is a statically allocated string.
.. cpp:function:: uint32_t botan_version_major()
Returns the major version of the library
.. cpp:function:: uint32_t botan_version_minor()
Returns the minor version of the library
.. cpp:function:: uint32_t botan_version_patch()
Returns the patch version of the library
.. cpp:function:: uint32_t botan_version_datestamp()
Returns the date this version was released as an integer YYYYMMDD,
or 0 if an unreleased version

.. _view_functions:
View Functions
----------------------------------------
.. versionadded:: 3.0.0
Starting in Botan 3.0, certain functions were added which produce a "view".
That is instead of copying data to a user provided buffer, they instead invoke a
callback, passing the data that was requested. This avoids an issue where in
some cases it is not possible for the caller to know what the output length of
the FFI function will be. In these cases, the best they can do is set a large
length, invoke the function, and then accept that they may need to retry the
(potentially expensive) operation.
View functions avoid this by always providing the full data, and allowing
the caller to allocate memory as necessary to copy out the result, without
having to guess the length in advance.
In all cases the pointer passed to the view function is deallocated after
the view function returns, and should not be retained.
The view functions return an integer value; if they return non-zero, then the
overall FFI function will also return this integer. To avoid confusion when
mapping the errors, any error returns should either match Botan's FFI error
codes, or else use an integer value in the application reserved range.
.. cpp:type:: void* botan_view_ctx
The application context, which is passed back to the view function.
.. cpp:type:: int (*botan_view_bin_fn)(botan_view_ctx view_ctx, const uint8_t* data, size_t len)
A viewer of arbitrary binary data.
.. cpp:type:: int (*botan_view_str_fn)(botan_view_ctx view_ctx, const char* str, size_t len)
A viewer of a null terminated C-style string. The length *includes* the null terminator byte.
The string should be UTF-8 encoded, but in certain circumstances may not be.
(Typically this would be due to a bug or oversight; please report the issue.)
:cpp:enumerator:`BOTAN_FFI_ERROR_STRING_CONVERSION_ERROR` is reserved to allow the FFI
call to indicate the problem, should it be unable to convert the data.
Utility Functions
----------------------------------------
.. const char* botan_error_description(int err)
Return a string representation of the provided error code. If the error code
is unknown, returns the string "Unknown error". The return values are static
constant strings and should not be freed.
.. cpp:function:: int botan_constant_time_compare(const uint8_t* x, const uint8_t* y, size_t len)

Return the ideal update granularity, ie the size of a buffer that must be
passed to :cpp:func:`botan_cipher_update` that maximizes performance.

Using larger buffers than the value returned here is unlikely to hurt
(within reason). Typically the returned value is a small multiple of the
minimum granularity, with the multiplier depending on the algorithm and
hardware support.

const botan_x509_cert_t* trusted, \
size_t trusted_len, \
const char* trusted_path, \
size_t required_strength, \
const char* hostname, \
uint64_t reference_time)
Verify a certificate. Returns 0 if validation was successful, 1 if
unsuccessful, or negative on error.
Sets ``validation_result`` to a code that provides more information.
If not needed, set ``intermediates`` to NULL and ``intermediates_len`` to
zero.
If not needed, set ``trusted`` to NULL and ``trusted_len`` to zero.
The ``trusted_path`` refers to a directory where one or more trusted CA
certificates are stored. It may be NULL if not needed.
Set ``required_strength`` to indicate the minimum key and hash strength
that is allowed. For instance setting to 80 allows 1024-bit RSA and SHA-1.
Setting to 110 requires 2048-bit RSA and SHA-256 or higher. Set to zero
to accept a default.
Set ``reference_time`` to be the time which the certificate chain is
validated against. Use zero to use the current system clock.

Certificate path validation supporting Certificate Revocation Lists.
Works the same as ``botan_x509_cert_cerify``.
``crls`` is an array of ``botan_x509_crl_t`` objects, ``crls_len`` is its length.
.. cpp:function:: const char* botan_x509_cert_validation_status(int code)
Return a (statically allocated) string associated with the verification
result, or NULL if the code is not known.
X.509 Certificate Revocation Lists
----------------------------------------
.. cpp:type:: opaque* botan_x509_crl_t
An opaque data type for an X.509 CRL.
.. cpp:function:: int botan_x509_crl_load(botan_x509_crl_t* crl_obj, \
const uint8_t crl[], size_t crl_len)
Load a CRL from the DER or PEM representation.
.. cpp:function:: int botan_x509_crl_load_file(botan_x509_crl_t* crl_obj, const char* filename)
Load a CRL from a file.
.. cpp:function:: int botan_x509_crl_destroy(botan_x509_crl_t crl)
Destroy the CRL object.
.. cpp:function:: int botan_x509_is_revoked(botan_x509_crl_t crl, botan_x509_cert_t cert)
Check whether a given ``crl`` contains a given ``cert``.
Return ``0`` when the certificate is revoked, ``-1`` otherwise.
ZFEC (Forward Error Correction)
----------------------------------------
.. versionadded:: 3.0.0
.. cpp:function:: int botan_zfec_encode(size_t K, size_t N, \
const uint8_t *input, size_t size, uint8_t **outputs)
Perform forward error correction encoding. The input length must be a multiple
of `K` bytes. The `outputs` parameter must point to `N` output buffers,
each of length `size / K`.
Any `K` of the `N` output shares is sufficient to recover the original input.
.. cpp:function:: int botan_zfec_decode(size_t K, size_t N, const size_t *indexes, \
uint8_t *const*const inputs, size_t shareSize, uint8_t **outputs)
Decode some FEC shares. The indexes and inputs must be exactly K in length.
The `indexes` array specifies which shares are presented in `inputs`.
Each input must be of length `shareSize`. The output is written to the
`K` buffers in `outputs`, each buffer must be `shareSize` long.
