Some highlights from NEWS:

 ** bio: fix CTAP2 canonical CBOR encoding in fido_bio_dev_enroll_*();
    gh#480.
 ** New API calls:
  - fido_dev_info_set;
  - fido_dev_io_handle;
  - fido_dev_new_with_info;
  - fido_dev_open_with_info.
 ** Documentation and reliability fixes.
 ** Support for TPM 2.0 attestation of COSE_ES256 credentials.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
EDDSA is the name given in the CBOR Object Signing and Encryption
(COSE) RFC to EDDSA over Curve25519 with SHA-512.
The COSE EDDSA API of
.Em libfido2
is an auxiliary API with routines to convert between the different
EDDSA public key types used in
.Em libfido2
and
.Em OpenSSL .
.Pp
In
.Em libfido2 ,
EDDSA public keys are abstracted by the
.Vt eddsa_pk_t
type.
.Pp
The
.Fn eddsa_pk_new
function returns a pointer to a newly allocated, empty
.Vt eddsa_pk_t
type.
If memory cannot be allocated, NULL is returned.
.Pp
The
.Fn eddsa_pk_free
function releases the memory backing
.Fa *pkp ,
where
.Fa *pkp
must have been previously allocated by
.Fn eddsa_pk_new .
On return,
.Fa *pkp
is set to NULL.
Either
.Fa pkp
or
.Fa *pkp
may be NULL, in which case
.Fn eddsa_pk_free
is a NOP.
.Pp
The
.Fn eddsa_pk_from_EVP_PKEY
function fills
.Fa pk
with the contents of
.Fa pkey .
No references to
.Fa pkey
are kept.
.Pp
The
.Fn eddsa_pk_from_ptr
function fills
.Fa pk
with the contents of
.Fa ptr ,
where
.Fa ptr
points to
.Fa len
bytes.
No references to
.Fa ptr
are kept.
.Pp
The
.Fn eddsa_pk_to_EVP_PKEY
function converts
.Fa pk
to a newly allocated
.Fa EVP_PKEY
type with a reference count of 1.
No internal references to the returned pointer are kept.
If an error occurs,
.Fn eddsa_pk_to_EVP_PKEY
returns NULL.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn eddsa_pk_from_EVP_PKEY
and
.Fn eddsa_pk_from_ptr
functions return
.Dv FIDO_OK
on success.
On error, a different error code defined in
.In fido/err.h
is returned.
