; DateKeys Protocol Specification v0.11 (working draft) - CBOR schemas (RFC ; 8610 CDDL). ; ; Normative companion of spec/DateKeys_Protocol_Specification_v0.11.md. The ; reference implementation g.activething.com/go/DateKeys still implements ; v0.9, whose schemas are in tag spec-v0.9. These schemas include the three ; control versions: 1, of capsule format 1 (v0.8.2), 2, of format 2 (v0.9), ; and 3, of format 3, and the security and head objects of format 3. ; ; Encoding rules that CDDL cannot express (spec section 58, 58.1): ; - Every structure uses the CBOR profile of the protocol (spec section 58): ; Deterministic CBOR (RFC 8949 section 4.2.1) restricted to major types 0, ; 2, 3, 4 and 5, with unsigned integer map keys in strictly ascending ; order, shortest-form integers and lengths, definite lengths only and ; valid UTF-8 text. Negative integers, tags, floats, simple values ; (including null) and indefinite lengths are rejected. ; - A decoder re-encodes what it decoded and rejects any byte difference ; (ERR_NON_CANONICAL_CBOR). ; - A semantically absent optional field is omitted. Empty arrays, empty ; maps, null, "" and h'' never stand for absence; the .size and non-empty ; constraints below make those forms invalid. ; - Maps are closed: keys not listed here are rejected. New semantics go in ; extensions (spec section 54). ; - The elements of each extension array are in strictly ascending order of ; the UTF-8 bytes of extension_id (spec section 54): bytes compared as ; unsigned integers, the first differing byte decides and a proper prefix ; sorts first; never UTF-16 code units, case folding, Unicode ; normalization or a locale collation. U+FF61 (ef bd a1) sorts before ; U+10000 (f0 90 80 80). The strict order also forbids a repeated ; extension_id within an array, and no extension_id appears in both ; arrays of one object, so an extension_id appears at most once per ; object. ; - A violation of a normative rule of this schema, including .size, ; integer ranges and the 64-extension maximum, is ERR_NON_CANONICAL_CBOR ; unless spec section 57 names a more specific error (schema version, ; compact_datekey, access_type and access_material, Provider Profile ; names and public key). Those rules are checked with the fields, after ; the rest of this schema; here a field needs only the CBOR type of its ; rule, and another type is ERR_NON_CANONICAL_CBOR. The implementation ; limits marked below are not normative; spec section 74 lists them, ; with the limits of the reference outside this schema, and an ; implementation that applies them uses the same mapping. ; - The schema version of a control (key 1) is the one spec section 22 ; assigns to the format of its capsule, the VERSION of the PRELUDE: ; control-v1 only in format 1, control-v2 only in format 2 and ; control-v3 only in format 3. A decoder ; picks the rule by the format, and another version is ; ERR_UNSUPPORTED_VERSION, read before the rest of the schema (spec ; section 69.1, layer 2). CDDL cannot express that link. ; - payload-length holds L as an unsigned 64-bit big-endian integer in ; exactly 8 bytes, whatever its value, and a decoder reads all 8 bytes; ; the value is at most max-payload-length (spec section 29.1, 31). A ; larger value is ERR_NON_CANONICAL_CBOR, like any rule of this schema. ; - When bytes break several rules, the code is the one of the first ; failing layer (spec section 69.1): frame, then type tag and schema ; version (keys 0 and 1; for a control, the version of its capsule ; format), then this schema, then the fields with codes of their own in ; ascending key order. ; - In format 3, security and head sit inside BODY, the plaintext of ; PAYLOAD_AGE (spec section 29.2), whose 12-byte frame (AREA_LEN, ; SECURITY_LEN, HEAD_LEN) CDDL cannot express. A failure of security ; never has an error code: it only changes the verdicts (spec section ; 29.3, 29.7). In head, path lengths (R1) and the path order (R8) are ; rules of this schema (ERR_NON_CANONICAL_CBOR); the other path rules ; and the text rules are checked with the fields (ERR_HEAD_INVALID, ; spec section 29.4 to 29.6), and the paths sort by their UTF-8 bytes, ; like extension_id. ; Spec section 11 and 12. Spec section 12.1 adds the rules a profile must ; follow to be pinned (ERR_UNKNOWN_PROFILE), among them period at most 2^32-1 ; and a public key that is the canonical encoding (spec section 12.2) of a ; point of the key group of the scheme, 48 or 96 bytes, other than the point ; at infinity, and the chain-hash self-check, SHA-256(uint32_be(period) || ; int64_be(genesis_time) || public_key || genesis_seed || network), network ; left out when it is "default" (ERR_PROFILE_MISMATCH). provider-profile = { 0 => "datekeys-provider-profile", 1 => 1, 2 => profile-id, 3 => name, ; provider, "drand" 4 => name, ; provider network identifier, "quicknet" 5 => bstr .size 32, ; chain_hash 6 => public-key, ; group public key 7 => period, ; seconds; spec section 11: 1..max-safe-uint 8 => 0..max-safe-uint, ; genesis_time, Unix seconds 9 => name, ; scheme, "bls-unchained-g1-rfc9380" 10 => bstr .size 32, ; genesis_seed } ; Spec section 24.
