  25         @header SecCodeHost
  26         This header provides the hosting API for Code Signing. These are calls
  27         that are (only) made by code that is hosting guests.
  28         In the context of Code Signing, a Host is code that creates and manages other
  29         codes from which it defends its own integrity. As part of that duty, it maintains
  30         state for each of its children, and answers questions about them.
  31
  32         A Host is externally represented by a SecCodeRef (it is a SecCode object).
  33         So is a Guest. There is no specific API object to represent Hosts or Guests.
  34         Within the Hosting API, guests are identified by simple numeric handles that
  35         are unique and valid only in the context of their specific host.
  36
  37         The functions in this API always apply to the Host making the API calls.
  38         They cannot be used to (directly) interrogate another host.

  50         @header SecCodeHost
  51         This header describes the Code Signing Hosting API. These are calls made
  52         by code that wishes to become a Host in the Code Signing Host/Guest infrastructure.
  53         Hosting allows the caller to establish separate, independent code identities
  54         (SecCodeRefs) for parts of itself, usually because it is loading and managing
  55         code in the form of scripts, plugins, etc.
  56
  57         The Hosting API does not directly connect to the Code Signing Client APIs.
  58         Certain calls in the client API will cause internal queries to hosts about their
  59         guests. The Host side of these queries is managed through this API. The results
  60         will eventually be delivered to client API callers in appropriate form.
  61
  62         If code never calls any of the Hosting API functions, it is deemed to not have
  63         guests and not act as a Host. This is the default and requires no action.
  64
  65         Hosting operates in one of two modes, dynamic or proxy. Whichever mode is first
  66         engaged prevails for the lifetime of the caller. There is no way to switch between
  67         the two, and calling an API belonging to the opposite mode will fail.
  68
  69         In dynamic hosting mode, the caller provides a Mach port that receives direct
  70         queries about its guests. Dynamic mode is engaged by calling SecHostSetHostingPort.
  71
  72         In proxy hosting mode, the caller provides information about its guests as
  73         guests are created, removed, or change status. The system caches this information
  74         and answers queries about guests from this pool of information. The caller is not
  75         directly involved in answering such queries, and has no way to intervene.

  79 /*!
  80         @function SecHostCreateGuest
  81         Create a new Guest and describe its initial properties.
  82
  83         This call activates Hosting Proxy Mode. From here on, the system will record
  84         guest information provided through SecHostCreateGuest, SecHostSetGuestStatus, and
  85         SecHostRemoveGuest, and report hosting status to callers directly. This mode
  86         is incompatible with dynamic host mode as established by a call to SecHostSetHostingPort.
  87
  88         @param host Pass kSecNoGuest to create a guest of the process itself.
  89         To create a guest of another guest (extending the hosting chain), pass the SecGuestRef
  90         of the guest to act as the new guest's host. If host has a dedicated guest,
  91         it will be deemed to be be the actual host, recursively.
  92         @param status The Code Signing status word for the new guest. These are combinations
  93         of the kSecCodeStatus* flags in <Security/CSCommon.h>. Note that the proxy will enforce
  94         the rules for the stickiness of these bits. In particular, if you don't pass the
  95         kSecCodeStatusValid bit during creation, your new guest will be born invalid and will
  96         never have a valid identity.
  97         @param path The canonical path to the guest's code on disk. This is the path you would
  98         pass to SecStaticCodeCreateWithPath to make a static code object reference. You must
  99         use an absolute path.
 100         @param attributes An optional CFDictionaryRef containing attributes that can be used
 101         to locate this particular guest among all of the caller's guests. The "canonical"
 102         attribute is automatically added for the value of guestRef. If you pass NULL,
 103         no other attributes are established for the guest.
 104         While any key can be used in the attributes dictionary, the kSecGuestAttribute* constants
 105         (in SecCode.h) are conventionally used here.
 106         @param flags Optional flags. Pass kSecCSDefaultFlags for standard behavior, or
 107         a combination of the flags defined below for special features.
 108         @result Upon success, noErr. Upon error, an OSStatus value documented in
 109         CSCommon.h or certain other Security framework headers.
 110         @param newGuest Upon successful creation of the new guest, the new SecGuestRef
 111         that should be used to identify the new guest from here on.
 112
 113         @constant kSecCSDedicatedHost Declares dedicated hosting for the given host.
 114         In dedicated hosting, the host has exactly one guest (the one this call is
 115         introducing), and the host will spend all of its time from here on running
 116         that guest (or on its behalf). This declaration is irreversable for the lifetime
 117         of the host. Note that this is a declaration about the given host, and is not
 118         binding upon other hosts on either side of the hosting chain, though they in turn
 119         may declare dedicated hosting if desired.
 120         It is invalid to declare dedicated hosting if other guests have already been
 121         introduced for this host, and it is invalid to introduce additional guests
 122         for this host after this call.
 123         @constant kSecCSGenerateGuestHash Ask the proxy to generate the binary identifier
 124         (hash of CodeDirectory) from the copy on disk at the path given. This is not optimal
 125         since an attacker with write access may be able to substitute a different copy just
 126         in time, but it is convenient. For optimal security, the host should calculate the
 127         hash from the loaded in-memory signature of its guest and pass the result as an
 128         attribute with key kSecGuestAttributeHash.
