  85. \&=head1 DESCRIPTION
  86. .Ve
  87. .PP
  88. \&\fBPKCS12_create()\fR creates a PKCS#12 structure.
  89. .PP
  90. \&\fIpass\fR is the passphrase to use. \fIname\fR is the \fBfriendlyName\fR to use for
  91. the supplied certificate and key. \fIpkey\fR is the private key to include in
  92. the structure and \fIcert\fR its corresponding certificates. \fIca\fR, if not \fBNULL\fR
  93. is an optional set of certificates to also include in the structure.
  94. .PP
  95. \&\fInid_key\fR and \fInid_cert\fR are the encryption algorithms that should be used
  96. for the key and certificate respectively. The modes
  97. GCM, CCM, XTS, and OCB are unsupported. \fIiter\fR is the encryption algorithm
  98. iteration count to use and \fImac_iter\fR is the MAC iteration count to use.
  99. \&\fIkeytype\fR is the type of key.
  100. .PP
  101. \&\fBPKCS12_create_ex()\fR is identical to \fBPKCS12_create()\fR but allows for a library context
  102. \&\fIctx\fR and property query \fIpropq\fR to be used to select algorithm implementations.
  103. .PP
  104. \&\fBPKCS12_create_ex2()\fR is identical to \fBPKCS12_create_ex()\fR but allows for a user defined
  105. callback \fIcb\fR of type \fBPKCS12_create_cb\fR to be specified and also allows for an
  106. optional argument \fIcbarg\fR to be passed back to the callback.
  107. .PP
  108. The \fIcb\fR if specified will be called for every safebag added to the
  109. PKCS12 structure and allows for optional application processing on the associated
  110. safebag. For example one such use could be to add attributes to the safebag.
  111. .SH NOTES
  112. .IX Header "NOTES"
  113. The parameters \fInid_key\fR, \fInid_cert\fR, \fIiter\fR, \fImac_iter\fR and \fIkeytype\fR
  114. can all be set to zero and sensible defaults will be used.
  115. .PP
  116. These defaults are: AES password based encryption (PBES2 with PBKDF2 and
  117. AES\-256\-CBC) for private keys and certificates, the PBKDF2 and MAC key
  118. derivation iteration count of \fBPKCS12_DEFAULT_ITER\fR (currently 2048), and
  119. MAC algorithm HMAC with SHA2\-256. The MAC key derivation algorithm used
  120. for the outer PKCS#12 structure is PKCS12KDF.
  121. .PP
  122. The default MAC iteration count is 1 in order to retain compatibility with
  123. old software which did not interpret MAC iteration counts. If such compatibility
  124. is not required then \fImac_iter\fR should be set to PKCS12_DEFAULT_ITER.
  125. .PP
  126. \&\fIkeytype\fR adds a flag to the store private key. This is a non standard extension
  127. that is only currently interpreted by MSIE. If set to zero the flag is omitted,
  128. if set to \fBKEY_SIG\fR the key can be used for signing only, if set to \fBKEY_EX\fR
  129. it can be used for signing and encryption. This option was useful for old
  130. export grade software which could use signing only keys of arbitrary size but
  131. had restrictions on the permissible sizes of keys which could be used for
  132. encryption.
  133. .PP
  134. If \fIname\fR is \fBNULL\fR and \fIcert\fR contains an \fIalias\fR then this will be
  135. used for the corresponding \fBfriendlyName\fR in the PKCS12 structure instead.
  136. Similarly, if \fIpkey\fR is NULL and \fIcert\fR contains a \fIkeyid\fR then this will be
  137. used for the corresponding \fBlocalKeyID\fR in the PKCS12 structure instead of the
  138. id calculated from the \fIpkey\fR.
  139. .PP
  140. For all certificates in \fIca\fR then if a certificate contains an \fIalias\fR or
  141. \&\fIkeyid\fR then this will be used for the corresponding \fBfriendlyName\fR or
  142. \&\fBlocalKeyID\fR in the PKCS12 structure.
  143. .PP
  144. Either \fIpkey\fR, \fIcert\fR or both can be \fBNULL\fR to indicate that no key or
  145. certificate is required. In previous versions both had to be present or
  146. a fatal error is returned.
  147. .PP
  148. \&\fInid_key\fR or \fInid_cert\fR can be set to \-1 indicating that no encryption
  149. should be used.
  150. .PP
  151. \&\fImac_iter\fR can be set to \-1 and the MAC will then be omitted entirely.
  152. This can be useful when running with the FIPS provider as the PKCS12KDF
  153. is not a FIPS approvable algorithm.
  154. .PP
  155. \&\fBPKCS12_create()\fR makes assumptions regarding the encoding of the given pass
  156. phrase.
  157. See \fBpassphrase\-encoding\fR\|(7) for more information.
  158. .PP
  159. If \fIcb\fR is specified, then it should return 1 for success and \-1 for a fatal error.
  160. A return of 0 is intended to mean to not add the bag after all.
