FmCreateHashObject

Returns the address of a hash object for digest operations.

Synopsis

#include “fmciphobj.h”
HashObj * FmCreateHashObject(FMCO_HashObjIndex index);

Option

Description

index

The type of hash object requested. It can have the following values (defined in fmciphobj.h): >FMCO_IDX_MD2: Implementation of the MD-2 algorithm >FMCO_IDX_MD5: Implementation of the MD-5 algorithm >FMCO_IDX_RMD128: Implementation of the RIPEMD-128 algorithm >FMCO_IDX_RMD160: Implementation of the RIPEMD-160 algorithm >FMCO_IDX_SHA1: Implementation of the SHA-1 algorithm >FMCO_IDX_SHA256: Implementation of the SHA256 algorithm >FMCO_IDX_SHA384: Implementation of the SHA384 algorithm >FMCO_IDX_SHA512: Implementation of the SHA512 algorithm This list is correct at time of writing; the actual number of objects supported depends on the HSM firmware version.

Operations supported

>Init

>Update

>Final

Data Block Size

Any

Return Value

The address of the hash object is returned. If the system doesn’t have enough memory to complete operation, NULL is returned.

Comments

The returned hash object should be freed by calling its Free() function (See Free).

Example

{
char buf[100];
char hash[100];
int lenOut;
HashObj *o = FmCreateHashObject(FMCO_IDX_SHA1);
If ( o == NULL )
Return error;
o->Init(o);
o->Update(o, data, len);
o->Final(o, hash, sizeof(hash), &lenOut);
o->Free(o);
}
