Hi Robert,
My comments are inline.
Regards,
Indra
Indra, All,
For clarity, instead of overloading the Key Value Type
field, what about introducing a distinct "Key Compression Type" field with its
own enumeration, both in the Get request and Key Block object? Also, we should
consider renaming "Key Value Type" to "Key Format Type", to be more
precise.
[IF] I assume you are suggesting for us to avoid allowing
multiple Key Value Types to be specified. I would be ok with that. I am also ok
with changing the name to Key Format Type or Key Material
Format.
Moreover, if we allow clients to specify under which format they wish to
obtain a key (raw, transparent, etc), then should the spec state the following
too ?
- if a client registers a key
in a given format/compression, the server must be able to provide it (as a
response to Get requests) in at least that same format/compression (that would
forbid, for instance, server implementations that take as input a transparent
key and only store the flattened raw byte format).
- any conversion from the original provided
format/compression (that came through a Register operation from the client, or
from a out-of-band admin operation) to any other format/compression is optional
for the server to support.
[IF] Yes, we could include this.
Note however that it is up to the vendor how the object will be
stored. Regards, -Robert
