NAME
Tspi_Context_GetKeyByUUID - get a handle to a key registered in persistent storage.
SYNOPSIS
#include <tss/platform.h>
#include <tss/tcpa_defines.h>
#include <tss/tcpa_typedef.h>
#include <tss/tcpa_struct.h>
#include <tss/tss_typedef.h>
#include <tss/tss_structs.h>
#include <tss/tspi.h>
TSS_RESULT Tspi_Context_GetKeyByUUID(TSS_HCONTEXT hContext, TSS_FLAG persistentStorageType,
TSS_UUID uuidData, TSS_HKEY* phKey);
DESCRIPTION
Tspi_Context_GetKeyByUUID searches the Persistent Storage database for a registered key using the given UUID. It then creates a key object
initialized to the found data and returns a handle to the key object.
PARAMETERS
hContext
The hContext parameter is the handle of the context object.
persistentStorageType
The persistentStorageType parameter indicates the persistent storage the key is registered in.
uuidData
The uuidData parameter is the UUID by which the key is registered in persistent storage.
phKey
The phKey parameter receives the handle of the key object representing the key.
RETURN CODES
Tspi_Context_GetKeyByUUID returns TSS_SUCCESS on success, otherwise one of the following values is returned:
TSS_E_INVALID_HANDLE
hContext is an invalid handle.
TSS_E_PS_KEY_NOTFOUND
The key cannot be found in the persistent storage database.
TSS_E_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal SW error has been detected.
TSS_E_BAD_PARAMETER
One or more parameters is bad.
CONFORMING TO
Tspi_Context_GetKeyByUUID conforms to the Trusted Computing Group Software Specification version 1.1 Golden

NAME
Tspi_Context_RegisterKey - register a key in the TSS Persistent Storage database
SYNOPSIS
#include <tss/platform.h>
#include <tss/tcpa_defines.h>
#include <tss/tcpa_typedef.h>
#include <tss/tcpa_struct.h>
#include <tss/tss_typedef.h>

TSS_RESULT Tspi_Context_RegisterKey(TSS_HCONTEXT hContext, TSS_HKEY hKey,
TSS_FLAG persistentStorageType, TSS_UUID uuidKey,
TSS_FLAG persistentStorageTypeParent, TSS_UUID uuidParentKey);
DESCRIPTION
Tspi_Context_RegisterKey is the API that registers a key with the TSS Persistent Storage database so that it can be loaded as necessary. It
also includes all information required for loading the key, as well as information about its parent key.
PARAMETERS
hContext
The hContext parameter is the handle of the context object.
hKey
The hKey parameter is the handle of the key object addressing the key to be registered.
persistentStorageType
The persistentStorageType parameter indicates the persistent storage the key is registered in.
uuidKey
The uuidKey parameter is the UUID by which the key is registered in persistent storage.
persistentStorageTypeParent
The persistentStorageTypeParent parameter indicates the persistent storage that the parent key is registered in.
uuidParentKey
The uuidParentKey parameter is the UUID by which the parent key is registered in persistent storage.
RETURN CODES
Tspi_Context_RegisterKey returns TSS_SUCCESS on success, otherwise one of the following values is returned:
TSS_E_INVALID_HANDLE
hContext is not a valid handle.
TSS_E_PS_KEY_NOTFOUND
The key cannot be found in the persistent storage database.
TSS_E_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal SW error has been detected.
TSS_E_BAD_PARAMETER
One or more parameters is bad.
EXAMPLE
#include <trousers/tss.h>
int
main(void)
{
TSS_FLAGS initFlags = ...;
TSS_HKEY hKey, hSRK;
TSS_UUID keyUUID = {...};
// Create a TSP handle

if (result != TSS_SUCCESS)
Error_Path();
// Connect to the TCSD
result = Tspi_Context_Connect(hContext, GLOBALSERVER);
if (result != TSS_SUCCESS)
Error_Path();
// Create the Key Object
result = Tspi_Context_CreateObject(hContext,
TSS_OBJECT_TYPE_RSAKEY,
initFlags, &hKey);
if (result != TSS_SUCCESS)
Error_Path();
// Load parent Key by UUID
result = Tspi_Context_LoadKeyByUUID(hContext, TSS_PS_TYPE_SYSTEM,
SRK_UUID, &hSRK);
if (result != TSS_SUCCESS)
Error_Path();
// Do policy/secret handling here
result = Tspi_Key_CreateKey(hKey, hSRK, 0);
if (result != TSS_SUCCESS)
Error_Path();
// Register the Key in System PS (on the TCSD's platform)
result = Tspi_Context_RegisterKey(hContext, hKey, TSS_PS_TYPE_SYSTEM,
keyUUID, TSS_PS_TYPE_SYSTEM,
SRK_UUID);
if (result != TSS_SUCCESS)
Error_Path();
/* ...
*
* Use the key as needed, exiting the program if necessary, reloading
* the key using Tspi_Context_LoadKeyByUUID() after each restart. Once
* the key is no longer useful, unregister it from system PS as part
* of clean up.
*/
// Unregister the Key
result = Tspi_Context_UnregisterKey(hContext, TSS_PS_TYPE_SYSTEM,
migratableSignUUID, &hKey);
if (result != TSS_SUCCESS)
Error_Path();
// exit, discarding hKey
