.Sh DESCRIPTION
FIDO2 credentials are abstracted in
.Em libfido2
by the
.Vt fido_cred_t
type.
The functions described in this page allow a
.Vt fido_cred_t
type to be allocated, deallocated, and inspected.
For other operations on
.Vt fido_cred_t ,
please refer to
.Xr fido_cred_set_authdata 3 ,
.Xr fido_cred_exclude 3 ,
.Xr fido_cred_verify 3 ,
and
.Xr fido_dev_make_cred 3 .
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_cred_new
function returns a pointer to a newly allocated, empty
.Vt fido_cred_t
type.
If memory cannot be allocated, NULL is returned.
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_cred_free
function releases the memory backing
.Fa *cred_p ,
where
.Fa *cred_p
must have been previously allocated by
.Fn fido_cred_new .
On return,
.Fa *cred_p
is set to NULL.
Either
.Fa cred_p
or
.Fa *cred_p
may be NULL, in which case
.Fn fido_cred_free
is a NOP.
.Pp
If the CTAP 2.1
.Dv FIDO_EXT_MINPINLEN
extension is enabled on
.Fa cred ,
then the
.Fn fido_cred_pin_minlen
function returns the minimum PIN length of
.Fa cred .
Otherwise,
.Fn fido_cred_pin_minlen
returns zero.
See
.Xr fido_cred_set_pin_minlen 3
on how to enable this extension.
.Pp
If the CTAP 2.1
.Dv FIDO_EXT_CRED_PROTECT
extension is enabled on
.Fa cred ,
then the
.Fn fido_cred_prot
function returns the protection of
.Fa cred .
Otherwise,
.Fn fido_cred_prot
returns zero.
See
.Xr fido_cred_set_prot 3
for the protection policies understood by
.Em libfido2 .
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_cred_fmt
function returns a pointer to a NUL-terminated string containing
the attestation statement format identifier of
.Fa cred ,
or NULL if
.Fa cred
does not have a format set.
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_cred_rp_id ,
.Fn fido_cred_rp_name ,
.Fn fido_cred_user_name ,
and
.Fn fido_cred_display_name
functions return pointers to NUL-terminated strings holding the
relying party ID, relying party name, user name, and user display
name attributes of
.Fa cred ,
or NULL if the respective entry is not set.
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_cred_authdata_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_authdata_raw_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_clientdata_hash_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_id_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_aaguid_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_largeblob_key_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_pubkey_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_sig_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_user_id_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_x5c_ptr ,
and
.Fn fido_cred_attstmt_ptr
functions return pointers to the CBOR-encoded and raw authenticator
data, client data hash, ID, authenticator attestation GUID,
.Dq largeBlobKey ,
public key, signature, user ID, x509 certificate, and attestation
statement parts of
.Fa cred ,
or NULL if the respective entry is not set.
.Pp
The corresponding length can be obtained by
.Fn fido_cred_authdata_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_authdata_raw_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_clientdata_hash_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_id_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_aaguid_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_largeblob_key_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_pubkey_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_sig_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_user_id_len ,
.Fn fido_cred_x5c_len ,
and
.Fn fido_cred_attstmt_len .
.Pp
The authenticator data, x509 certificate, and signature parts of a
credential are typically passed to a FIDO2 server for verification.
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_cred_type
function returns the COSE algorithm of
.Fa cred .
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_cred_flags
function returns the authenticator data flags of
.Fa cred .
.Pp
The
.Fn fido_cred_sigcount
function returns the authenticator data signature counter of
.Fa cred .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The authenticator data returned by
.Fn fido_cred_authdata_ptr
is a CBOR-encoded byte string, as obtained from the authenticator.
To obtain the decoded byte string, use
.Fn fido_cred_authdata_raw_ptr .
.Pp
If not NULL, pointers returned by
.Fn fido_cred_fmt ,
.Fn fido_cred_authdata_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_clientdata_hash_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_id_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_aaguid_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_largeblob_key_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_pubkey_ptr ,
.Fn fido_cred_sig_ptr ,
and
.Fn fido_cred_x5c_ptr
are guaranteed to exist until any API function that takes
.Fa cred
without the
.Em const
qualifier is invoked.
