/** \defgroup attributes Key attributes

/** The type of a structure containing key attributes.
*
* This is an opaque structure that can represent the metadata of a key
* object. Metadata that can be stored in attributes includes:
* - The location of the key in storage, indicated by its key identifier
* and its lifetime.
* - The key's policy, comprising usage flags and a specification of
* the permitted algorithm(s).
* - Information about the key itself: the key type and its size.
* - Implementations may define additional attributes.
*
* The actual key material is not considered an attribute of a key.
* Key attributes do not contain information that is generally considered
* highly confidential.
*
* An attribute structure can be a simple data structure where each function
* `psa_set_key_xxx` sets a field and the corresponding function
* `psa_get_key_xxx` retrieves the value of the corresponding field.
* However, implementations may report values that are equivalent to the
* original one, but have a different encoding. For example, an
* implementation may use a more compact representation for types where
* many bit-patterns are invalid or not supported, and store all values
* that it does not support as a special marker value. In such an
* implementation, after setting an invalid value, the corresponding
* get function returns an invalid value which may not be the one that
* was originally stored.
*
* An attribute structure may contain references to auxiliary resources,
* for example pointers to allocated memory or indirect references to
* pre-calculated values. In order to free such resources, the application
* must call psa_reset_key_attributes(). As an exception, calling
* psa_reset_key_attributes() on an attribute structure is optional if
* the structure has only been modified by the following functions
* since it was initialized or last reset with psa_reset_key_attributes():
* - psa_set_key_id()
* - psa_set_key_lifetime()
* - psa_set_key_type()
* - psa_set_key_bits()
* - psa_set_key_usage_flags()
* - psa_set_key_algorithm()
*
* Before calling any function on a key attribute structure, the application
* must initialize it by any of the following means:
* - Set the structure to all-bits-zero, for example:
* \code
* psa_key_attributes_t attributes;
* memset(&attributes, 0, sizeof(attributes));
* \endcode
* - Initialize the structure to logical zero values, for example:
* \code
* psa_key_attributes_t attributes = {0};
* \endcode
* - Initialize the structure to the initializer #PSA_KEY_ATTRIBUTES_INIT,
* for example:
* \code
* psa_key_attributes_t attributes = PSA_KEY_ATTRIBUTES_INIT;
* \endcode
* - Assign the result of the function psa_key_attributes_init()
* to the structure, for example:
* \code
* psa_key_attributes_t attributes;
* attributes = psa_key_attributes_init();
* \endcode
*
* A freshly initialized attribute structure contains the following
* values:
*
* - lifetime: #PSA_KEY_LIFETIME_VOLATILE.
* - key identifier: 0 (which is not a valid key identifier).
* - type: \c 0 (meaning that the type is unspecified).
* - key size: \c 0 (meaning that the size is unspecified).
* - usage flags: \c 0 (which allows no usage except exporting a public key).
* - algorithm: \c 0 (which allows no cryptographic usage, but allows
* exporting).
*
* A typical sequence to create a key is as follows:
* -# Create and initialize an attribute structure.
* -# If the key is persistent, call psa_set_key_id().
* Also call psa_set_key_lifetime() to place the key in a non-default
* location.
* -# Set the key policy with psa_set_key_usage_flags() and
* psa_set_key_algorithm().
* -# Set the key type with psa_set_key_type().
* Skip this step if copying an existing key with psa_copy_key().
* -# When generating a random key with psa_generate_key() or deriving a key
* with psa_key_derivation_output_key(), set the desired key size with
* psa_set_key_bits().
* -# Call a key creation function: psa_import_key(), psa_generate_key(),
* psa_key_derivation_output_key() or psa_copy_key(). This function reads
* the attribute structure, creates a key with these attributes, and
* outputs a handle to the newly created key.
* -# The attribute structure is now no longer necessary.
* You may call psa_reset_key_attributes(), although this is optional
* with the workflow presented here because the attributes currently
* defined in this specification do not require any additional resources
* beyond the structure itself.
*
* A typical sequence to query a key's attributes is as follows:
* -# Call psa_get_key_attributes().
* -# Call `psa_get_key_xxx` functions to retrieve the attribute(s) that
* you are interested in.
* -# Call psa_reset_key_attributes() to free any resources that may be
* used by the attribute structure.
*
* Once a key has been created, it is impossible to change its attributes.
