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 The .Fn fido_cred_prot function returns the protection of .Fa cred . See .Xr fido_cred_set_prot 3 for the values understood by .Em libfido2 . .Pp The .Fn fido_cred_fmt function returns a pointer to a NUL-terminated string containing the format 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_clientdata_hash_ptr , .Fn fido_cred_id_ptr , .Fn fido_cred_aaguid_ptr , .Fn fido_cred_pubkey_ptr , .Fn fido_cred_sig_ptr , .Fn fido_cred_user_id_ptr , and .Fn fido_cred_x5c_ptr functions return pointers to the authenticator data, client data hash, ID, authenticator attestation GUID, public key, signature, user ID, and x509 certificate 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_clientdata_hash_len , .Fn fido_cred_id_len , .Fn fido_cred_aaguid_len , .Fn fido_cred_pubkey_len , .Fn fido_cred_sig_len , .Fn fido_cred_user_id_len , and .Fn fido_cred_x5c_len . .Pp The authenticator data, x509 certificate, and signature parts of a credential are typically passed to a FIDO 2 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 . .Sh RETURN VALUES The authenticator data returned by .Fn fido_cred_authdata_ptr is a CBOR-encoded byte string, as obtained from the authenticator. .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_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. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr fido_cred_exclude 3 , .Xr fido_cred_set_authdata 3 , .Xr fido_cred_verify 3 , .Xr fido_credman_metadata_new 3 , .Xr fido_dev_make_cred 3
