101.Fn CRYPTO_HAS_OUTPUT_BUFFER "struct cryptop *crp"
102.Sh DESCRIPTION
103Symmetric cryptographic requests use data buffers to describe the data to
104be modified.
105Requests can either specify a single data buffer whose contents are modified
106in place,
107or requests may specify separate data buffers for input and output.
108.Vt struct crypto_buffer
109provides an abstraction that permits cryptographic requests to operate on
110different types of buffers.
111.Vt struct crypto_cursor
112allows cryptographic drivers to iterate over a data buffer.
113.Pp
114.Fn CRYPTO_HAS_OUTPUT_BUFFER
115returns true if
116.Fa crp
117uses separate buffers for input and output and false if
118.Fa crp
119uses a single buffer.
120.Pp
121.Fn crypto_buffer_len
122returns the length of data buffer
123.Fa cb
124in bytes.
125.Pp
126.Fn crypto_apply_buf
127invokes a caller-supplied function
128to a region of the data buffer
129.Fa cb .
130The function
131.Fa f
132is called one or more times.
133For each invocation,
134the first argument to
135.Fa f
136is the value of
137.Fa arg
138passed to
139.Fn crypto_apply_buf .
140The second and third arguments to
141.Fa f
142are a pointer and length to a segment of the buffer mapped into the kernel.
143The function is called enough times to cover the
144.Fa len
145bytes of the data buffer which starts at an offset
146.Fa off .
147If any invocation of
148.Fa f
149returns a non-zero value,
150.Fn crypto_apply_buf
151immediately returns that value without invoking
152.Fa f
153on any remaining segments of the region,
154otherwise
155.Fn crypto_apply_buf
156returns the value from the final call to
157.Fa f .
158.Fn crypto_apply
159invokes the callback
160.Fa f
161on a region of the input data buffer for
162.Fa crp .
163.Pp
164.Fn crypto_buffer_contiguous_subsegment
165attempts to locate a single, virtually-contiguous segment of the data buffer
166.Fa cb .
167The segment must be
168.Fa len
169bytes long and start at an offset of
170.Fa skip
171bytes.
172If a segment is found,
173a pointer to the start of the segment is returned.
174Otherwise,
175.Dv NULL
176is returned.
177.Fn crypto_contiguous_subsegment
178attempts to locate a single, virtually-contiguous segment in the input data
179buffer for
180.Fa crp .
181.Ss Data Buffers
182Data buffers are described by an instance of
183.Vt struct crypto buffer .
184The
185.Fa cb_type
186member contains the type of the data buffer.
187The following types are supported:
188.Bl -tag -width "  CRYPTO_BUF_CONTIG"
189.It Dv CRYPTO_BUF_NONE
190An invalid buffer.
191Used to mark the output buffer when a crypto request uses a single data buffer.
192.It Dv CRYPTO_BUF_CONTIG
193An array of bytes mapped into the kernel's address space.
194.It Dv CRYPTO_BUF_UIO
195A scatter/gather list of kernel buffers as described in
196.Xr uio 9 .
197.It Dv CRYPTO_BUF_MBUF
198A network memory buffer as described in
199.Xr mbuf 9 .
200.El
201.Pp
202The structure also contains the following type-specific fields:
203.Bl -tag -width "  cb_buf_len"
204.It Fa cb_buf
205A pointer to the start of a
206.Dv CRYPTO_BUF_CONTIG
207data buffer.
208.It Fa cb_buf_len
209The length of a
210.Dv CRYPTO_BUF_CONTIG
211data buffer
212.It Fa cb_mbuf
213A pointer to a
214.Vt struct mbuf
215for
216.Dv CRYPTO_BUF_MBUF .
217.It Fa cb_uio
218A pointer to a
219.Vt struct uio
220for
221.Dv CRYPTO_BUF_UIO .
222.El
223.Ss Cursors
224Cursors provide a mechanism for iterating over a data buffer.
225They are primarily intended for use in software drivers which access data
226buffers via virtual addresses.
227.Pp
228.Fn crypto_cursor_init
229initializes the cursor
230.Fa cc
231to reference the start of the data buffer
232.Fa cb .
233.Pp
234.Fn crypto_cursor_advance
235advances the cursor
236.Fa amount
237bytes forward in the data buffer.
238.Pp
239.Fn crypto_cursor_copyback
240copies
241.Fa size
242bytes from the local buffer pointed to by
243.Fa src
244into the data buffer associated with
245.Fa cc .
246The bytes are written to the current position of
247.Fa cc ,
248and the cursor is then advanced by
249.Fa size
250bytes.
251.Pp
252.Fn crypto_cursor_copydata
253copies
254.Fa size
255bytes out of the data buffer associated with
256.Fa cc
257into a local buffer pointed to by
258.Fa dst .
259The bytes are read from the current position of
260.Fa cc ,
261and the cursor is then advanced by
262.Fa size
263bytes.
264.Pp
265.Fn crypto_cursor_copydata_noadv
266is similar to
267.Fn crypto_cursor_copydata
268except that it does not change the current position of
269.Fa cc .
270.Pp
271.Fn crypto_cursor_segbase
272and
273.Fn crypto_cursor_seglen
274return the start and length, respectively,
275of the virtually-contiguous segment at the current position of
276.Fa cc .
277.Sh RETURN VALUES
278.Fn crypto_apply
279and
280.Fn crypto_apply_buf
281return the return value from the caller-supplied callback function.
282.Pp
283.Fn crypto_buffer_contiguous_subsegment ,
284.Fn crypto_contiguous_subsegment ,
285and
286.Fn crypto_cursor_segbase ,
287return a pointer to a contiguous segment or
288.Dv NULL .
289.Pp
290.Fn crypto_buffer_len
291returns the length of a buffer in bytes.
292.Pp
293.Fn crypto_cursor_seglen
294returns the length in bytes of a contiguous segment.
295.Pp
296.Fn CRYPTO_HAS_OUTPUT_BUFFER
297returns true if the request uses a separate output buffer.
