RE: [pkcs11] PKCS #11 v3.1 Reviews

[Dieter Bong <Dieter.Bong@utimaco.com>]

Hi Bob,

Thank you for your review.

I'm a bit struggling with your comment about "table 1". Both in the Word and PDF documents, I can only see a single table 1; and sections 6.2.18 to 6.2.21 show tables 57 to 60. Also inserting a table of tables into the Word document (just for testing purposes) lists tables 1 to 266 with monotonic increasing table number without any gaps. Did you do your review on the Word document, and Word did possibly not correctly show tables numbers?

Best regards,
Dieter

Section 9: The only change was to explicitly say the CKA_EC_POINT is Der encoded for Edwards curve. I believe that is the conclusion we came to based on memory and minutes.

Section 11: Simple bits->bytes change in the DSA table. Change was made correctly, but I identified an issue with some of the table index of other tables in WD05, which marked in the wiki table. Notably tables in secections 6.2.18- 6.2.21, all the tables are 'table 1' rather than 'table 57-60'

Section 15: Changes to the AES_KEY_WRAP family of mechanism. These changes look correct* to me (based on our previous discussions). If you are a vendor implementing any of these changes, be sure to review these now. NSS will very likely be expecting the given semantics in the future.


(*correct = what I recall we finally agreed on, not what I would have preferred;).
