P11-KIT(8) System Commands P11-KIT(8)
NAME
p11-kit - Tool for operating on configured PKCS#11 modules
SYNOPSIS
p11-kit list-modules
p11-kit extract ...
p11-kit server ...
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.
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.
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.
