Members

structure_id

Structure ID: This field shall be set to 5h (i.e., Security; #NBFT_DESC_SECURITY).

index

Security Profile Descriptor Index: This field indicates the number of this Security Profile Descriptor in the Security Profile Descriptor List.

flags

Security Profile Descriptor Flags, see enum nbft_security_flags.

secret_type

Secret Type, see enum nbft_security_secret_type.

reserved1

Reserved.

sec_chan_alg_obj

Secure Channel Algorithm Heap Object Reference: If the Security Policy List field is set to 1h, then this field indicates the location and size of a heap object containing a list of secure channel algorithms. The list is an array of bytes and the values are defined in the Security Type (SECTYPE) field in the Transport Specific Address Subtype Definition in the NVMe TCP Transport Specification. If the Security Policy List field is cleared to 0h, then this field is reserved.

auth_proto_obj

Authentication Protocols Heap Object Reference: If the Authentication Policy List field is set to 1h, then this field indicates the location and size of a heap object containing a list of authentication protocol identifiers. If the Authentication Policy List field is cleared to 0h, then this field is reserved.

cipher_suite_obj

Cipher Suite Offset Heap Object Reference: If the Cipher Suites Restricted by Policy bit is set to 1h, then this field indicates the location and size of a heap object containing a list of cipher suite identifiers. The list, if any, is an array of bytes and the values are defined in the IANA TLS Parameters Registry. If the Cipher Suites Restricted by Policy bit is cleared to 0h, then this field is reserved.

dh_grp_obj

DH Groups Heap Object Reference: If the Authentication DH Groups Restricted by Policy List bit is set to 1h, then this field indicates the location and size of a heap object containing a list of DH-HMAC-CHAP Diffie-Hellman (DH) group identifiers. If the Authentication DH Groups Restricted by Policy List bit is cleared to 0h, then this field is reserved.

sec_hash_func_obj

Secure Hash Functions Offset Heap Object Reference: If the Secure Hash Functions Policy List bit is set to 1h, then this field indicates the offset in bytes of a heap object containing a list of DH-HMAC-CHAP hash function identifiers. The list is an array of bytes and the values are defined in the NVM Express Base Specification. If the Secure Hash Functions Policy List bit is cleared to 0h, then this field is reserved.

sec_keypath_obj

Secret Keypath Offset Heap Object Reference: if this field is set to a non-zero value, then this field indicates the location and size of a heap object containing a URI. The type of the URI is specified in the Secret Type field. If this field is cleared to 0h, then this field is reserved.

reserved2

Reserved.
