Edited down.

With this new 2.40 version of the spec, the attribute CKA_PUBLIC_KEY_INFO was defined to provide this information in a non-key-type specific manner.  See section 4.9.  Any private key type should implement this as a way of providing the public key information.

Is that sufficient for your needs or is there something still missing?

Subject: [pkcs11-comment] Attributes of EC private key objects

 

Hello all,

 

I would like to discuss attributes of EC private key objects. I will first try to explain what I like about RSA private key objects:

 

 

So my final question is: Would it be possible to define CKA_EC_POINT attribute as a mandatory attribute also for EC private key objects?
