See +the compiler's README files for more information on ASN.1 +Information Object System support. +.Pp +Extensions specific to Heimdal are generally not syntactic in +nature but rather command-line options to this program. +For example, one can use command-line options to: +.Bl -bullet -compact -width Ds -offset indent +.It +enable decoding of BER-encoded values; +.It +enable RFC1510-style handling of +.Sq BIT STRING +types; +.It +enable saving of as-received encodings of specific types for the +purpose of signature validation; +.It +generate add/remove utility functions for array types; +.It +decorate generated +.Sq struct +types with fields that are neither encoded nor decoded; +.El +etc. +.Pp +ASN.1 x.680 features supported: +.Bl -bullet -compact -width Ds -offset indent +.It +most primitive types (except BMPString and REAL); +.It +all constructed types, including SET and SET OF; +.It +explicit and implicit tagging. +.El +.Pp +Size and range constraints on the +.Sq INTEGER +type cause the compiler to generate appropriate C types such as +.Sq int , +.Sq unsigned int , +.Sq int64_t , +.Sq uint64_t . +Unconstrained +.Sq INTEGER +is treated as +.Sq heim_integer , +which represents an integer of arbitrary size. +.Pp +Caveats and ASN.1 x.680 features not supported: +.Bl -bullet -compact -width Ds -offset indent +.It +JSON encoding support is not quite X.697 (JER) compatible. +Its JSON schema is subject to change without notice. +.It +Control over C types generated is very limited, mainly only for +integer types. +.It +When using the template backend, `SET { .. }` types are currently +not sorted by tag as they should be, but if the module author +sorts them by hand then correct DER will be produced. +.It +.Sq AUTOMATIC TAGS +is not supported. +.It +The +.Va REAL +type is not supported. +.It +The +.Va EmbeddedPDV +type is not supported. +.It +The +.Va BMPString +type is not supported. +.It +The +.Va IA5String +is not properly supported, as it's essentially treated as a +.Va UTF8String +with a different tag. +.It +All supported non-octet strings are treated as like the +.Va UTF8String +type. +.It +Only types can be imported into ASN.1 modules at this time. +.It +Only simple value syntax is supported. +Constructed value syntax (i.e., values of SET, SEQUENCE, SET OF, +and SEQUENCE OF types), is not supported. +Values of `CHOICE` types are also not supported. +.El +.Pp +Options supported: +.Bl -tag -width Ds +.It Fl Fl template +Use the +.Dq template +backend instead of the +.Dq codegen +backend (which is the default backend). +.Pp +The template backend generates +.Dq templates +which are akin to bytecode, and which are interpreted at +run-time. +.Pp +The codegen backend generates C code for all functions directly, +with no template interpretation. +.Pp +The template backend scales better than the codegen backend +because as we add support for more encoding rules and more +operations (we may add value comparators) the templates stay +mostly the same, thus scaling linearly with size of module. +Whereas the codegen backend scales linear with the product of +module size and number of encoding rules supported. +.It Fl Fl prefix-enum +This option should be removed because ENUMERATED types should +always have their labels prefixed. +.It Fl Fl enum-prefix=PREFIX +This option should be removed because ENUMERATED types should +always have their labels prefixed. +.It Fl Fl encode-rfc1510-bit-string +Use RFC1510, non-standard handling of +.Dq BIT STRING +types. +.It Fl Fl decode-dce-ber +.It Fl Fl support-ber +.It Fl Fl preserve-binary=TYPE +Generate a field named +.Sq _save +in the C struct generated for the named +.Ar TYPE . +This field is used to preserve the original encoding of the value +of the +.Ar TYPE . +.Pp +This is useful for cryptographic applications so that they can +check signatures of encoded values as-received without having to +re-encode those values. +.Pp +For example, the TBSCertificate type should have values preserved +so that Certificate validation can check the signatureValue over +the tbsCertificate's value as-received. +.Pp +The alternative of encoding a value to check a signature of it is +brittle. +For types where non-canonical encodings (such as BER) are +allowed, this alternative is bound to fail. +Thus the point of this option. +.It Fl Fl sequence=TYPE +Generate add/remove functions for the named ASN.1 +.Ar TYPE +which must be a +.Sq SET OF +or +.Sq SEQUENCE OF +type. +.It Fl Fl decorate=ASN1-TYPE:FIELD-ASN1-TYPE:fname[?] +Add to the C struct generated for the given ASN.1 SET, SEQUENCE, or +CHOICE type named +.Ar ASN1-TYPE +a +.Dq hidden +field named +.Ar fname +of the given ASN.1 type +.Ar FIELD-ASN1-TYPE , +but do not encode or decode it. +If the +.Ar fname +ends in a question mark, then treat the field as OPTIONAL. +.Pp +This is useful for adding fields to existing types that can be +used for internal bookkeeping but which do not affect +interoperability because they are neither encoded nor decoded. +For example, one might decorate a request type with state needed +during processing of the request. +.It Fl Fl decorate=ASN1-TYPE:void*:fname +Add to the C struct generated for the given ASN.1 SET, SEQUENCE, or +CHOICE type named +.Ar ASN1-TYPE +a +.Dq hidden +field named +.Ar fname +of type +.Sq void * +(but do not encode or decode it. +.Pp +The destructor and copy constructor functions generated by this +compiler for +.Ar ASN1-TYPE +will set this field to the +.Sq NULL +pointer. +.It Fl Fl decorate=ASN1-TYPE:FIELD-C-TYPE:fname[?]:[copyfn]:[freefn]:header +Add to the C struct generated for the given ASN.1 SET, SEQUENCE, or +CHOICE type named +.Ar ASN1-TYPE +a +.Dq hidden +field named +.Ar fname +of the given external C type +.Ar FIELD-C-TYPE , +declared in the given +.Ar header +but do not encode or decode this field. +If the +.Ar fname +ends in a question mark, then treat the field as OPTIONAL. +.Pp +The +.Ar header +must include double quotes or angle brackets. +The +.Ar copyfn +must be the name of a copy constructor function that takes a +pointer to a source value of the type, and a pointer to a +destination value of the type, in that order, and which returns +zero on success or else a system error code on failure. +The +.Ar freefn +must be the name of a destructor function that takes a pointer to +a value of the type and which releases resources referenced by +that value, but does not free the value itself (the run-time +allocates this value as needed from the C heap). +The +.Ar freefn +should also reset the value to a pristine state (such as all +zeros). +.Pp +If the +.Ar copyfn +and +.Ar freefn +are empty strings, then the decoration field will neither be +copied nor freed by the functions generated for the +.Ar TYPE . +.It Fl Fl one-code-file +Generate a single source code file. +Otherwise a separate code file will be generated for every type. +.It Fl Fl gen-name=NAME +Use +.Ar NAME +to form the names of the files generated. +.It Fl Fl option-file=FILE +Take additional command-line options from +.Ar FILE . +The options file must have one command-line option per-line, but +leading whitespace is ignored, and lines that start with a hash +symbol +.Sq ( # ) +are comments and are ignored. +.It Fl Fl original-order +Attempt to preserve the original order of type definition in the +ASN.1 module. +By default the compiler generates types in a topological sort +order. +.It Fl Fl no-parse-units +Do not generate to-int / from-int functions for enumeration +types. +.It Fl Fl type-file=C-HEADER-FILE +Generate an include of the named header file that might be needed +for common type defintions. +.It Fl Fl version +.It Fl Fl help +.El +.Sh NOTES +Currently only the template backend supports automatic encoding +and decoding of open types via the ASN.1 Information Object +System and X.681/X.682/X.683 annotations. |
