# libzuptsdk Public C ABI for the [ZUPT](https://github.com/cristiancmoises/zupt) backup compression library. Provides post-quantum encrypted compression as a stable, embeddable shared library, independent of the `zupt` CLI and of any external compression library — everything is built from ZUPT's own implementations. - **Version:** 1.0.0 - **License of the built library:** AGPL-3.0-or-later AND GPL-3.0-or-later AND BSD-2-Clause AND BSD-3-Clause AND CC0-1.0 - **ABI:** Stable across 1.x via versioned symbols (`ZUPTSDK_1.0`) - **C standard:** Public header is C99; C11 implementation; works in C++17 This in-tree compatibility SDK is named **libzuptsdk**. It is not the separately packaged **libvuptsdk** dependency used by the CLI's optional `WITH_SDK=1` integration. Running `make sdk` builds `libzuptsdk` from this repository; it does not enable `--pq-sdk` or the libvuptsdk-backed Argon2id path in `zupt`. ## Features - **Hybrid post-quantum encryption** — ML-KEM-768 + X25519 KEM - **Authenticated encryption** — AES-256-CTR + HMAC-SHA256, PBKDF2-SHA256 KDF - **Hardware-adaptive compression** — VaptVupt on AVX2/NEON, LZHP elsewhere - **Streaming I/O** — read/write callbacks for sockets, pipes, encrypted volumes - **Secure memory** — mlock-backed buffers for passwords and keys, zeroed on destroy - **Optional assembly path** — textual Jasmin sources on supported x86_64 builds - **Per-context state** — no globals; safe to use from any thread on distinct contexts - **Custom allocator hooks** — supply your own malloc/free ## Quick start (C) ```c #include zuptsdk_ctx_t *ctx; zuptsdk_ctx_create(&ctx); zuptsdk_secure_buf_t *pw; zuptsdk_secure_buf_from_data((const uint8_t *)"mypassword", 10, &pw); uint8_t *archive; size_t archive_sz; zuptsdk_compress_buffer(ctx, NULL, "data.bin", my_data, my_data_size, pw, NULL, &archive, &archive_sz); /* ... store archive somewhere ... */ uint8_t *out; size_t out_sz; zuptsdk_extract_buffer(ctx, archive, archive_sz, pw, NULL, &out, &out_sz); zuptsdk_free(archive); zuptsdk_free(out); zuptsdk_secure_buf_destroy(pw); zuptsdk_ctx_destroy(ctx); ``` Build with `pkg-config`: ```sh gcc myapp.c $(pkg-config --cflags --libs zuptsdk) -o myapp ``` ## Quick start (Python) ```python import zuptsdk with zuptsdk.Context() as ctx: archive = ctx.compress_buffer(b"hello world", name="hello.txt", password=b"secret") data = ctx.extract_buffer(archive, password=b"secret") assert data == b"hello world" ``` Post-quantum mode: ```python with zuptsdk.Context() as ctx: kp = ctx.generate_keypair() kp.save("/tmp/mykey") # writes mykey.key (priv, 0600) + mykey.pub (pub, 0644) archive = ctx.compress_buffer(b"secret data", name="s.txt", public_key=kp.public) data = ctx.extract_buffer(archive, private_key=kp.private) ``` ## Build & install ```sh git clone https://github.com/cristiancmoises/zupt cd zupt make # builds the portable CLI (WITH_JASMIN=0 by default) make sdk # builds libzuptsdk.so.1.0.0 + libzuptsdk.a + zuptsdk.pc make sdk-test # runs C roundtrip suite (15 tests) sudo make sdk-install PREFIX=/usr/local ``` This SDK is built from source via `make sdk`; the previously vendored prebuilt `vendor/zuptsdk/libzuptsdk.so` has been removed from the tree. Build output is written below the ignored `sdk/build/` directory and is never part of Git or an upstream source archive. The wrapper and application portions are AGPL-3.0-or-later. The library also incorporates the bundled VaptVupt codec sources identified as GPL-3.0-or-later, plus the BSD-2-Clause xxHash-derived routines and CC0-1.0 pq-crystals/kyber-derived ML-KEM portions, together with BSD-3-Clause curve25519-donna-derived X25519 portions. Redistribution of the resulting shared or static library must preserve all five scopes, `LICENSE-AGPL-3.0`, `LICENSE-GPL-3.0`, `LICENSE-BSD-2-Clause`, `LICENSE-BSD-3-Clause`, `LICENSE-CC0-1.0`, `NOTICE`, and `THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.md`; see `sdk/LICENSE` for the concise scope notice. This installs: - `/usr/local/include/zuptsdk.h` - `/usr/local/lib/libzuptsdk.so.1.0.0` (with versioned `.so.1` and `.so` symlinks) - `/usr/local/lib/libzuptsdk.a` - `/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/zuptsdk.pc` - `/usr/local/share/licenses/libzuptsdk/` (all applicable texts and notices) ## Symbol visibility The shared library exports **only** the 55 documented public symbols, all prefixed with `zuptsdk_`. Internal `zupt_*` and `vv_*` symbols are hidden via a linker version script. Verify yourself: ```sh make sdk-verify-symbols # [sdk-verify] checking exported symbols in sdk/build/libzuptsdk.so.1.0.0 # 55 exported / 55 declared in version script # PASS: no symbol leakage, all declared symbols exported ``` ## ABI stability policy Every symbol declared in `zuptsdk.h` is part of the stable v1.0 ABI and is gated under the linker tag `ZUPTSDK_1.0`. - **New symbols** in v1.x get added under new tags (`ZUPTSDK_1.1`, ...) - **Existing symbols** never change signature within v1.x - **Breaking changes** require a major bump (`libzuptsdk.so.2`) Do not link against internal `zupt_*` symbols even if you find them in the static archive — they will disappear without notice. ## Thread safety - Concurrent calls on **distinct contexts** are safe (MT-Safe). - Concurrent calls on the **same context** are not safe. For parallel work, create one context per worker thread. ## Memory ownership Every output pointer documents its destroyer. Always use the documented function (`zuptsdk_free`, `zuptsdk_*_destroy`) to release memory — never bare `free()` — because the library may have been built with a custom allocator. Function parameter conventions: - `[in]` — caller owns, library reads only - `[out]` — caller owns, library writes - `[in,out]` — caller owns, library reads and writes - `[transfers]` — ownership moves caller ↔ library - `[borrowed]` — pointer valid only for the duration of the call ## Error handling Functions return `int` where 0 = success, negative = `zuptsdk_error_t` code. ```c int rc = zuptsdk_compress_buffer(...); if (rc != ZUPTSDK_OK) { fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", zuptsdk_strerror(rc)); fprintf(stderr, " detail: %s\n", zuptsdk_last_error_detail()); return rc; } ``` `zuptsdk_last_error_detail()` returns a thread-local string with file:line context. ## Components ``` sdk/ ├── include/zuptsdk.h # Public C99 header (55 functions, 7 opaque types) ├── src/zuptsdk.c # Implementation (wraps zupt internals) ├── zuptsdk.map # Linker version script (gates exports) ├── Makefile.sdk # Build integration ├── bindings/python/zuptsdk.py # Python cffi reference bindings ├── tests/test_sdk_roundtrip.c # C roundtrip suite └── tests/test_python.py # Python test suite ``` ## License The built libzuptsdk contains AGPL-3.0-or-later wrapper/application code and GPL-3.0-or-later bundled codec code; its complete SPDX expression is **AGPL-3.0-or-later AND GPL-3.0-or-later AND BSD-2-Clause AND BSD-3-Clause AND CC0-1.0** (see `sdk/LICENSE`).
