bupstash-keyfiles

SYNOPSIS

Overview of the bupstash key format.

DESCRIPTION

Bupstash key files are PEM encoded with one of the following tags:

  • BUPSTASH KEY
  • BUPSTASH SUB KEY

The binary data after decoding the PEM data consists of bare key structures, described below.

Binary encoding of keys:


type PrimaryKey {
    id: Data<16>,
    rollsum_key: Data<32>,
    data_hash_key_part_1: Data<32>,
    data_hash_key_part_2: Data<32>,
    data_pk: Data<32>,
    data_sk: Data<32>,
    data_psk: Data<32>,
    idx_hash_key_part_1: Data<32>,
    idx_hash_key_part_2: Data<32>,
    idx_pk: Data<32>,
    idx_sk: Data<32>,
    idx_psk: Data<32>,
    metadata_pk: Data<32>,
    metadata_sk: Data<32>,
    metadata_psk: Data<32>,
}

type SubKey {
    id: Data<16>,
    primary_key_id: Data<16>,
    rollsum_key: Option<Data<32>>,
    data_hash_key_part_1: Option<Data<32>>,
    data_hash_key_part_2: Option<Data<32>>,
    data_pk: Option<Data<32>>,
    data_sk: Option<Data<32>>,
    data_psk: Option<Data<32>>,
    idx_hash_key_part_1: Option<Data<32>>,
    idx_hash_key_part_2: Option<Data<32>>,
    idx_pk: Option<Data<32>>,
    idx_sk: Option<Data<32>>,
    idx_psk: Option<Data<32>>,
    metadata_pk: Option<Data<32>>,
    metadata_sk: Option<Data<32>>,
    metadata_psk: Option<Data<32>>,
}
