Yes, there's some kind of "memory magic" going on here: The task got terminated due to "Load from invalid memory" and I see: |Instruction at 0x6310604d is trying to load data at 0x4, which is an invalid memory area.

Re: [mbed-tls] mbedtls_ssl_set_bio hangs

Hi Ron, This behavior can't be explained by the library code and the code you posted alone. There has to be something wrong elsewhere. Check that you aren't exceeding a limitation such as the stack size or the size of executable and data sections. If it can be an issue on your platform, check that load addresses are correct and sections don't overlap. Make sure there's no overlap with any device memory mapping either. Make sure that the whole binary is compiled with consistent settings. The layout of mbedtls_ssl_context can be influenced by the Mbed TLS configuration, so make sure that there's a single copy of mbedtls/config.h and both Mbed TLS itself and your application were built against that copy. The layout of mbedtls_ssl_context can also be influenced by compiler settings on some platforms (e.g. structure packing options), so make sure those are consistent across your build. That's all I can think of for now. It may help to add a lot of printf debugging with %p on various addresses, and compare these addresses with what you know about memory mappings on that platform.

I've inserted print statements after each of the setup functions and can see that it never gets past mbedtls_ssl_set_bio. The messages that have been exchanged, include the complete bring up and login of the control channel, on the data channel, I call mbedtls_x509_crt_init mbedtls_pk_init mbedtls_entropy_init mbedtls_ctr_drbg_init mbedtls_ssl_init mbedtls_ssl_config_init followed by the certificate and key file got parsing, seeding of the RNG and that's where the previously mentioned procedure with mbedtls_ssl_config_defaults() starts. I unfortunately do not have a debugger available on that platform and hence getting a stack trace won't be so straight forward. Do you have any pointers as to what could be the issue potentially?

Re: [mbed-tls] mbedtls_ssl_set_bio hangs

Hi Ron, The code you've shown so far only consists of setup functions that populate fields in the configuration structure, then in the context structure. Communication has not started yet. mbedtls_ssl_set_bio in particular is a very simple setter function. Where does the code actually hang? Have some messages already been exchanged on the network at that point? Can you get a stack trace?

mbedtls_ssl_set_bio hangs

by Ron Eggler

Hi, i'm in the process of wrioting an FTPS client for a system running on uCOS. I've been able to setup the control channel fine and working on setting up the data channel for a simple list command execution. It seems like I seem able to setup everything fine but the call to mbedtls_ssl_set_bio() hangs even though I set it to execute the timeout function like: mbedtls_ssl_set_bio( &ssl_d, &data_fd, mbedtls_tls_send, NULL, mbedtls_tls_recv_timeout); Where the mbed_tls_recv_timeout looks like: https://pastebin.com/Jw3iLc0x The current connection uses ipv4, i.e. the select () branch is active. I never see the timed out message. Any idea what may be going on here? Thank you, Ron

Re: [mbed-tls] Signing without explicit private key

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Stefano, The pk module has limited support for opaque RSA keys, by using the RSA_ALT functionality (https://tls.mbed.org/kb/cryptography/use-external-rsa-private-key <https://tls.mbed.org/kb/cryptography/use-external-rsa-private-key>). There's no support for opaque EC keys. For a TLS server, you can use the asynchronous callback feature to use an opaque key. See https://tls.mbed.org/kb/how-to/ssl_async <https://tls.mbed.org/kb/how-to/ssl_async> The PSA crypto API supports opaque keys. On the application side, you need to use functions like psa_asymmetric_sign instead of mbedtls_pk_sign. On the hardware side, you need to implement a secure element driver for your crypto chip. Driver support is work in progress, and documentation and tooling are still sparse. The driver specifications are in https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/tree/development/docs/proposed <https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/tree/development/docs/proposed> . To add driver support, you currently need to edit library/psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.c and replace calls to the test driver by calls to your real driver.

Re: [mbed-tls] Request for Support [Issue : Webserver handshake failing with self-signed certificate]

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Selin, Another thing to check is that the stack is large enough. Stack overflows can sometimes cause weird behavior. Other than that, I'm afraid I can't think of a reason why there would be an infinite loop involving mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi. To go further, I think you need to trace the program in a debugger, figure out what arguments are being passed to the functions, and where the infinite loop is.
