DESCRIPTION p11-kit is a command line tool that can be used to perform operations on PKCS#11 modules configured on the system. See the various sub commands below. The following global options can be used: -v, --verbose Run in verbose mode with debug output. -q, --quiet Run in quiet mode without warning or failure messages. LIST MODULES List system configured PKCS#11 modules. $ p11-kit list-modules The modules, information about them and the tokens present in the PKCS#11 modules will be displayed. LIST TOKENS List all tokens available in system configured PKCS#11 modules. $ p11-kit list-tokens pkcs11:token This retrieves all tokens and displays some of their common attributes. This subcommand takes the following options: --only-uris Print only the matching token URIs. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 LIST OBJECTS List objects matching given PKCS#11 URI. $ p11-kit list-objects pkcs11:object_on_token This retrieves all objects that match given PKCS#11 URI and displays some of their common attributes. Storage objects also have their PKCS#11 URI displayed. This subcommand takes the following options: --login Authenticate to the token before enumerating objects. The PIN value is read from either the pin-value attribute in the URI or from the termi- nal. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 IMPORT OBJECT Import object into PKCS#11 token. $ p11-kit import-object --file=file.pem [--label=label] [--id=object_id] pkcs11:token Takes either an X.509 certificate or a public key in the form of a PEM file and imports it into the first token matched by given PKCS#11 URI. The following options are required: --file=<file.pem> File containing either an X.509 certificate or a public key in PEM for- mat. This subcommand also accepts the following options: --label=<label> Assigns label to the imported object. --id=<object_id> Assigns ID to the imported object. The ID should be specified in hexa- decimal format without '0x' prefix. --login Authenticate to the token before enumerating objects. The PIN value is read from either the pin-value attribute in the URI or from the termi- nal. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 EXPORT OBJECT Export object matching PKCS#11 URI. $ p11-kit export-object pkcs11:object_on_token Displays PEM formatted contents of the first object matched by given PKCS#11 URI. The matched object has to either be an X.509 certificate or a public key. This subcommand takes the following options: --login Authenticate to the token before enumerating objects. The PIN value is read from either the pin-value attribute in the URI or from the termi- nal. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 DELETE OBJECT Delete object matching PKCS#11 URI. $ p11-kit delete-object pkcs11:object_on_token Destroys the first object matched by given PKCS#11 URI. This subcommand takes the following options: --login Authenticate to the token before enumerating objects. The PIN value is read from either the pin-value attribute in the URI or from the termi- nal. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 GENERATE KEY-PAIR Generate key-pair on a PKCS#11 token. $ p11-kit generate-keypair --type=algorithm {--bits=n|--curve=name} [--label=label] [--id=object_id] pkcs11:token Generate private-public key-pair of given type on the first token matched by given PKCS#11 URI. This command should be used together with --type op- tion and one of --bits or --curve options. The following options are required: --type=<algorithm> Specify the type of keys to generate. Supported values are rsa, ecdsa and eddsa. --bits=<n> Specify the number of bits for the key-pair generation. Cannot be used together with --curve option. --curve=<name> Specify an elliptic curve for the key-pair generation. Supported values are secp256r1, secp384r1, secp521r1, ed25519 and ed448. Cannot be used together with --bits option. This subcommand also accepts the following options: --label=<label> Assigns label to the generated key-pair objects. --id=<object_id> Assigns ID to the generated key-pair objects. The ID should be speci- fied in hexadecimal format without '0x' prefix. --login Authenticate to the token before enumerating objects. The PIN value is read from either the pin-value attribute in the URI or from the termi- nal. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 LIST PROFILES List PKCS#11 profiles supported by the token. $ p11-kit list-profiles pkcs11:token Displays profile IDs of the first token matched by given PKCS#11 URI in hu- man-readable form. This subcommand takes the following options: --login Authenticate to the token before enumerating objects. The PIN value is read from either the pin-value attribute in the URI or from the termi- nal. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 ADD PROFILE Add PKCS#11 profile to a token. $ p11-kit add-profile --profile=profile pkcs11:token Creates new profile object with given profile ID on the first token matched by given PKCS#11 URI. This command fails if the profile ID already exists on the token. The following options are required: --profile=<profile> Profile ID to add. Value can either be numerical or textual. This subcommand also accepts the following options: --login Authenticate to the token before enumerating objects. The PIN value is read from either the pin-value attribute in the URI or from the termi- nal. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 DELETE PROFILE Delete PKCS#11 profile from a token. $ p11-kit delete-profile --profile=profile pkcs11:token Destroys all profile objects with given profile ID from the first token matched by given PKCS#11 URI. The following options are required: --profile=<profile> Profile ID to delete. Value can either be numerical or textual. This subcommand also accepts the following options: --login Authenticate to the token before enumerating objects. The PIN value is read from either the pin-value attribute in the URI or from the termi- nal. --provider=<module_path> Load only the given PKCS#11 module instead of enumerating modules in- stalled on the system. If module_path is a relative path, the module is loaded from the default module path. This path can be determined by running: $ pkg-config p11-kit-1 --variable p11_module_path /usr/lib64/pkcs11 LIST MECHANISMS List PKCS#11 mechanisms supported by the token. $ p11-kit list-mechanisms pkcs11:token This lists all available mechanimsms for a PKCS#11 token PRINT CONFIG Print merged configuration. $ p11-kit print-config P11-kit provides 3 levels of configuration: system wide, per-module, and per-user. At run-time all 3 levels are merged into a single configuration. This command displays the merged configuration. EXTRACT Extract certificates from configured PKCS#11 modules. This operation has been moved to a separate command trust extract. See trust(1) for more information SERVER Run a server process that exposes PKCS#11 module remotely. $ p11-kit server pkcs11:token1 pkcs11:token2 ... $ p11-kit server --provider /path/to/pkcs11-module.so pkcs11:token1 pkcs11:token2 ... This launches a server that exposes the given PKCS#11 tokens on a local socket. The tokens must belong to the same module. To access the socket, use p11-kit-client.so module. The server address and PID are printed as a shell-script snippet which sets the appropriate environment variable: P11_KIT_SERVER_ADDRESS and P11_KIT_SERVER_PID. EXTRACT TRUST Extract standard trust information files. This operation has been moved to a separate command trust extract-compat. See trust(1) for more information REMOTE Run a PKCS#11 module remotely. $ p11-kit remote /path/to/pkcs11-module.so $ p11-kit remote pkcs11:token1 pkcs11:token2 ... This is not meant to be run directly from a terminal. But rather in a re- mote option in a pkcs11.conf(5) file. This exposes the given PKCS#11 module or tokens over standard input and output. Those two forms, whether to expose a module or tokens, are mutually exclusive and if the second form is used, the tokens must belong to the same module.
