wolfSSL support for the ATECC608 Crypto Coprocessor

wolfSSL embedded SSL/TLS support the latest Microchip ATECC508 and ATECC608 I2C cryptographic coprocessors.

Prerequisites:

Requires the Microchip CryptoAuthLib (https://github.com/MicrochipTech/cryptoauthlib.git)

Examples:

wolfSSL uses PK (Public Key) callbacks for the TLS crypto operations wolfCrypt uses the WOLFSSL_ATECC508A or WOLFSSL_ATECC608A macros to enable native wc_ecc_* API support The README.md and reference PK callbacks can be found here: https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssl/tree/master/wolfcrypt/src/port/atmel Additional demos for wolfSSL TLS Client/Server and wolfCrypt test/benchmarks can be found: https://github.com/wolfSSL/microchip-atecc-demos

Preprocessor Macros:

WOLFSSL_ATECC508A WOLFSSL_ATECC608A WOLFSSL_ATECC_PKCB WOLFSSL_ATMEL WOLFSSL_ATECC_DEBUG WOLFSSL_ATECC_TNGTLS

PK Callbacks:

wolfSSL’s TLS layer PK callbacks expose API’s to set ECC callbacks. These are enabled with:

#define HAVE_PK_CALLBACKS or ./configure --enable-pkcallbacks.

Reference API’s:

atcatls_create_key_cb atcatls_verify_signature_cb atcatls_sign_certificate_cb Atcatls_create_pms_cb

We plan on adding support for the new 608A PRF and HKDF for TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 speed improvements.
