The emulated smart +cards can be representations of real smart cards, where the necessary functions +such as signing, card removal/insertion, etc. are mapped to real, physical +cards which are shared with the client machine the emulator is running on, or +the cards could be pure software constructs. + +The emulator is structured to allow multiple replacable or additional pieces, +so it can be easily modified for future requirements. The primary envisioned +modifications are: + +1) The socket connection to the virtual card reader (presumably a CCID reader, +but other ISO-7816 compatible readers could be used). The code that handles +this is in vscclient.c. + +2) The virtual card low level emulation. This is currently supplied by using +NSS. This emulation could be replaced by implementations based on other +security libraries, including but not limitted to openssl+pkcs#11 library, +raw pkcs#11, Microsoft CAPI, direct opensc calls, etc. The code that handles +this is in vcard_emul_nss.c. + +3) Emulation for new types of cards. The current implementation emulates the +original DoD CAC standard with separate pki containers. This emulator lives in +cac.c. More than one card type emulator could be included. Other cards could +be emulated as well, including PIV, newer versions of CAC, PKCS #15, etc. + +-------------------- +Replacing the Socket Based Virtual Reader Interface. + +The current implementation contains a replacable module vscclient.c. The +current vscclient.c implements a sockets interface to the virtual ccid reader +on the guest. CCID commands that are pertinent to emulation are passed +across the socket, and their responses are passed back along that same socket. +The protocol that vscclient uses is defined in vscard_common.h and connects +to a qemu ccid usb device. Since this socket runs as a client, vscclient.c +implements a program with a main entry. It also handles argument parsing for +the emulator. + +An application that wants to use the virtual reader can replace vscclient.c +with it's own implementation that connects to it's own CCID reader. The calls +that the CCID reader can call are: + + VReaderList * vreader_get_reader_list(); + + This function returns a list of virtual readers. These readers may map to + physical devices, or simulated devices depending on vcard the back end. Each + reader in the list should represent a reader to the virtual machine. Virtual + USB address mapping is left to the CCID reader front end. This call can be + made any time to get an updated list. The returned list is a copy of the + internal list that can be referenced by the caller without locking. This copy + must be freed by the caller with vreader_list_delete when it is no longer + needed. + + VReaderListEntry *vreader_list_get_first(VReaderList *); + + This function gets the first entry on the reader list. Along with + vreader_list_get_next(), vreader_list_get_first() can be used to walk the + reader list returned from vreader_get_reader_list(). VReaderListEntries are + part of the list themselves and do not need to be freed separately from the + list. If there are no entries on the list, it will return NULL. + + VReaderListEntry *vreader_list_get_next(VReaderListEntry *); + + This function gets the next entry in the list. If there are no more entries + it will return NULL. + + VReader * vreader_list_get_reader(VReaderListEntry *) + + This function returns the reader stored in the reader List entry. Caller gets + a new reference to a reader. The caller must free it's reference when it is + finished with vreader_free(). + + void vreader_free(VReader *reader); + + This function frees a reference to a reader. Reader's are reference counted + and are automatically deleted when the last reference is freed. + + void vreader_list_delete(VReaderList *list); + + This function frees the list, all the elements on the list, and all the + reader references held by the list. + + VReaderStatus vreader_power_on(VReader *reader, char *atr, int *len); + + This functions simulates a card power on. Virtual cards do not care about + the actual voltage and other physical parameters, but it does care that the + card is actually on or off. Cycling the card causes the card to reset. If + the caller provides enough space, vreader_power_on will return the ATR of + the virtual card. The amount of space provided in atr should be indicated + in *len. The function modifies *len to be the actual length of of the + returned ATR. + + VReaderStatus vreader_power_off(VReader *reader); + + This function simulates a power off of a virtual card. + + VReaderStatus vreader_xfer_bytes(VReader *reader, unsigne char *send_buf, + int send_buf_len, + unsigned char *receive_buf, + int receive_buf_len); + + This functions send a raw apdu to a card and returns the card's response. + The CCID front end should return the response back. Most of the emulation + is driven from these APDUs. + + VReaderStatus vreader_card_is_present(VReader *reader); + + This function returns whether or not the reader has a card inserted. The + vreader_power_on, vreader_power_off, and vreader_xfer_bytes will return + VREADER_NO_CARD. + + const char *vreader_get_name(VReader *reader); + + This function returns the name of the reader. The name comes from the card + emulator level and is usually related to the name of the physical reader. + + VReaderID vreader_get_id(VReader *reader); + + This function returns the id of a reader. All readers start out with an id + of -1. The application can set the id with vreader_set_id. + + VReaderStatus vreader_get_id(VReader *reader, VReaderID id); + + This function sets the reader id. The application is responsible for making + sure that the id is unique for all readers it is actively using. + + VReader *vreader_find_reader_by_id(VReaderID id); + + This function returns the reader which matches the id. If two readers match, + only one is returned. The function returns NULL if the id is -1. + + Event *vevent_wait_next_vevent(); + + This function blocks waiting for reader and card insertion events. There + will be one event for each card insertion, each card removal, each reader + insertion and each reader removal. At start up, events are created for all + the initial readers found, as well as all the cards that are inserted. + + Event *vevent_get_next_vevent(); + + This function returns a pending event if it exists, otherwise it returns + NULL. It does not block. + +---------------- +Card Type Emulator: Adding a New Virtual Card Type + +The ISO 7816 card spec describes 2 types of cards: + 1) File system cards, where the smartcard is managed by reading and writing +data to files in a file system. There is currently only boiler plate +implemented for file system cards. + 2) VM cards, where the card has loadable applets which perform the card +functions. The current implementation supports VM cards. + +In the case of VM cards, the difference between various types of cards is +really what applets have been installed in that card. This structure is +mirrored in card type emulators. The 7816 emulator already handles the basic +ISO 7186 commands. Card type emulators simply need to add the virtual applets +which emulate the real card applets. Card type emulators have exactly one +public entry point: + + VCARDStatus xxx_card_init(VCard *card, const char *flags, + const unsigned char *cert[], + int cert_len[], + VCardKey *key[], + int cert_count); + + The parameters for this are: + card - the virtual card structure which will prepresent this card. + flags - option flags that may be specific to this card type. + cert - array of binary certificates. + cert_len - array of lengths of each of the certificates specified in cert. + key - array of opaque key structures representing the private keys on + the card. + cert_count - number of entries in cert, cert_len, and key arrays. + + Any cert, cert_len, or key with the same index are matching sets. That is + cert[0] is cert_len[0] long and has the corresponsing private key of key[0]. + +The card type emulator is expected to own the VCardKeys, but it should copy +any raw cert data it wants to save. It can create new applets and add them to +the card using the following functions: + + VCardApplet *vcard_new_applet(VCardProcessAPDU apdu_func, + VCardResetApplet reset_func, + const unsigned char *aid, + int aid_len); + + This function creates a new applet. Applet structures store the following + information: + 1) the AID of the applet (set by aid and aid_len). + 2) a function to handle APDUs for this applet. (set by apdu_func, more on + this below). + 3) a function to reset the applet state when the applet is selected. + (set by reset_func, more on this below). + 3) applet private data, a data pointer used by the card type emulator to + store any data or state it needs to complete requests. (set by a + separate call). + 4) applet private data free, a function used to free the applet private + data when the applet itself is destroyed. + The created applet can be added to the card with vcard_add_applet below. + + void vcard_set_applet_private(VCardApplet *applet, + VCardAppletPrivate *private, + VCardAppletPrivateFree private_free); + This function sets the private data and the corresponding free function. + VCardAppletPrivate is an opaque data structure to the rest of the emulator. + The card type emulator can define it any way it wants by defining + struct VCardAppletPrivateStruct {};. If there is already a private data + structure on the applet, the old one is freed before the new one is set up. + passing two NULL clear any existing private data. + + VCardStatus vcard_add_applet(VCard *card, VCardApplet *applet); + + Add an applet onto the list of applets attached to the card. Once an applet + has been added, it can be selected by it's aid, and then commands will be + routed to it VCardProcessAPDU function. This function adopts the applet the + passed int applet. Note: 2 applets with the same AID should not be added to + the same card. It's permissible to add more than one applet. Multiple applets + may have the same VCardPRocessAPDU entry point. + +The certs and keys should be attached to private data associated with one or +more appropriate applets for that card. Control will come to the card type +emulators once one of its applets are selected through the VCardProcessAPDU +function it specified when it created the applet. + +The signature of VCardResetApplet is: + VCardStatus (*VCardResetApplet) (VCard *card, int channel); + This function will reset the any internal applet state that needs to be + cleared after a select applet call. It should return VCARD_DONE; + +The signature of VCardProcessAPDU is: + VCardStatus (*VCardProcessAPDU)(VCard *card, VCardAPDU *apdu, + VCardResponse **response); + This function examines the APDU and determines whether it should process + the apdu directly, reject the apdu as invalid, or pass the apdu on to + the basic 7816 emulator for processing. + If the 7816 emulator should process the apdu, then the VCardProcessAPDU + should return VCARD_NEXT. + If there is an error, then VCardProcessAPDU should return an error + response using vcard_make_response and the appropriate 7816 error code + (see card_7816t.h) or vcard_make_response with a card type specific error + code. It should then return VCARD_DONE. + If the apdu can be processed correctly, VCardProcessAPDU should do so, + set the response value appropriately for that APDU, and return VCARD_DONE. + VCardProcessAPDU should always set the response if it returns VCARD_DONE. + It should always either return VCARD_DONE or VCARD_NEXT. + +Parsing the APDU -- + +Prior to processing calling the card type emulator's VCardProcessAPDU function, the emulator has already decoded the APDU header and set several fields: + + apdu->a_data - The raw apdu data bytes. + apdu->a_len - The len of the raw apdu data. + apdu->a_body - The start of any post header parameter data. + apdu->a_Lc - The parameter length value. + apdu->a_Le - The expected length of any returned data. + apdu->a_cla - The raw apdu class. + apdu->a_channel - The channel (decoded from the class). + apdu->a_secure_messaging_type - The decoded secure messagin type + (from class). + apdu->a_type - The decode class type. + apdu->a_gen_type - the generic class type (7816, PROPRIETARY, RFU, PTS). + apdu->a_ins - The instruction byte. + apdu->a_p1 - Parameter 1. + apdu->a_p2 - Parameter 2. + +Creating a Response -- + +The expected result of any APDU call is a response. The card type emulator must +set *response with an appropriate VCardResponse value if it returns VCARD_DONE. +Reponses could be as simple as returning a 2 byte status word response, to as +complex as returning a block of data along with a 2 byte response. Which is +returned will depend on the semantics of the APDU. The following functions will +create card responses. + + VCardResponse *vcard_make_response(VCard7816Status status); + + This is the most basic function to get a response. This function will + return a response the consists soley one 2 byte status code. If that status + code is defined in card_7816t.h, then this function is guarrenteed to + return a response with that status. If a cart type specific status code + is passed and vcard_make_response fails to allocate the appropriate memory + for that response, then vcard_make_response will return a VCardResponse + of VCARD7816_STATUS_EXC_ERROR_MEMORY. In any case, this function is + guarrenteed to return a valid VCardResponse. + + VCardResponse *vcard_response_new(unsigned char *buf, int len, + VCard7816Status status); + + This function is similar to vcard_make_response except it includes some + returned data with the response. It could also fail to allocate enough + memory, in which case it will return NULL. + + VCardResponse *vcard_response_new_status_bytes(unsigned char sw1, + unsigned char sw2); + + Sometimes in 7816 the response bytes are treated as two separate bytes with + split meanings. This function allows you to create a response based on + two separate bytes. This function could fail, in which case it will return + NULL. + + VCardResponse *vcard_response_new_bytes(unsigned char *buf, int len, + unsigned char sw1, + unsigned char sw2); + + This function is the same as vcard_response_new except you may specify + the status as two separate bytes like vcard_response_new_status_bytes. + + +Implementing functionality --- + +The following helper functions access information about the current card +and applet. + + VCARDAppletPrivate *vcard_get_current_applet_private(VCard *card, + int channel); + + This function returns any private data set by the card type emulator on + the currently selected applet. The card type emulator keeps track of the + current applet state in this data structure. Any certs and keys associated + with a particular applet is also stored here. + + int vcard_emul_get_login_count(VCard *card); + + This function returns the the number of remaing login attempts for this + card. If the card emulator does not know, or the card does not have a + way of giving this information, this function returns -1. + + + VCard7816Status vcard_emul_login(VCard *card, unsigned char *pin, + int pin_len); + + This function logins into the card and return the standard 7816 status + word depending on the success or failure of the call. + + void vcard_emul_delete_key(VCardKey *key); + + This function frees the VCardKey passed in to xxxx_card_init. The card + type emulator is responsible for freeing this key when it no longer needs + it. + + VCard7816Status vcard_emul_rsa_op(VCard *card, VCardKey *key, + unsigned char *buffer, + int buffer_size); + + This function does a raw rsa op on the buffer with the given key. + +The sample card type emulator is found in cac.c. It implements the cac specific +applets. Only those applets needed by the coolkey pkcs#11 driver on the guest +have been implemented. To support the full range CAC middleware, a complete CAC +card according to the CAC specs should be implemented here. + +------------------------------ +Virtual Card Emulator + +This code accesses both real smart cards and simulated smart cards through +services provided on the client. The current implementation uses NSS, which +already knows how to talk to various PKCS #11 modules on the client, and is +portable to most operating systems. A particular emulator can have only one +virtual card implementation at a time. + +The virtual card emulator consists of a series of virtual card services. In +addition to the services describe above (services starting with +vcard_emul_xxxx), the virtual card emulator also provides the following +functions: + + VCardEmulError vcard_emul_init(cont VCardEmulOptions *options); + + The options structure is built by another function in the virtual card + interface where a string of virtual card emulator specific strings are + mapped to the options. The actual structure is defined by the virutal card + emulator and is used to determine the configuration of soft cards, or to + determine which physical cards to present to the guest. + + The vcard_emul_init function will build up sets of readers, create any + threads that are needed to watch for changes in the reader state. If readers + have cards present in them, they are also initialized. + + Readers are created with the function. + + VReader *vreader_new(VReaderEmul *reader_emul, + VReaderEmulFree reader_emul_free); + + The freeFunc is used to free the VReaderEmul * when the reader is + destroyed. The VReaderEmul structure is an opaque structure to the + rest of the code, but defined by the virtual card emulator, which can + use it to store any reader specific state. + + Once the reader has been created, it can be added to the front end with the + call: + + VReaderStatus vreader_add_reader(VReader *reader); + + This function will automatically generate the appropriate new reader + events and add the reader to the list. + + To create a new card, the virtual card emulator will call a similiar + function. + + VCard *vcard_new(VCardEmul *card_emul, + VCardEmulFree card_emul_free); + + Like vreader_new, this function takes a virtual card emulator specific + structure which it uses to keep track of the card state. + + Once the card is created, it is attached to a card type emulator with the + following function: + + VCardStatus vcard_init(VCard *vcard, VCardEmulType type, + const char *flags, + unsigned char *const *certs, + int *cert_len, + VCardKey *key[], + int cert_count); + + The vcard is the value returned from vcard_new. The type is the + card type emulator that this card should presented to the guest as. + The flags are card type emulator specific options. The certs, + cert_len, and keys are all arrays of length cert_count. These are the + the same of the parameters xxxx_card_init() accepts. + + Finally the card is associated with it's reader by the call: + + VReaderStatus vreader_insert_card(VReader *vreader, VCard *vcard); + + This function, like vreader_add_reader, will take care of any event + notification for the card insert. + + + VCardEmulError vcard_emul_force_card_remove(VReader *vreader); + + Force a card that is present to appear to be removed to the guest, even if + that card is a physical card and is present. + + + VCardEmulError vcard_emul_force_card_insert(VReader *reader); + + Force a card that has been removed by vcard_emul_force_card_remove to be + reinserted from the point of view of the guest. This will only work if the + card is physically present (which is always true fro a soft card). + + void vcard_emul_get_atr(Vcard *card, unsigned char *atr, int *atr_len); + + Return the virtual ATR for the card. By convention this should be the value + VCARD_ATR_PREFIX(size) followed by several ascii bytes related to this + particular emulator. For instance the NSS emulator returns + {VCARD_ATR_PREFIX(3), 'N', 'S', 'S' }. Do ot return more data then *atr_len; + + void vcard_emul_reset(VCard *card, VCardPower power) + + Set the state of 'card' to the current power level and reset its internal + state (logout, etc). + +------------------------------------------------------- +List of files and their function: +README - This file +card_7816.c - emulate basic 7816 functionality.
