[PATCH 6/8] X.509: Make the public_key asymmetric key type internal data private

From: David Howells
Date: Fri Feb 19 2016 - 12:19:40 EST


Make the public_key asymmetric key type internal data (struct public_key)
private by moving it to the asymmetric keys directory.

Whilst struct public_key_signature needs to be available, since that's part
of the asymmetric key API to verify a signature, anyone using asymmetric
keys should not be poking around inside the subtype internals, but should
rather use API functions, such as verify_signature(), in case the internals
turn out not to be of the subtype expected.

An exception is made for the X.509 and PKCS#7 parsers as they don't create
keys but rather use the public key routines directly.
