As for CKR_COPY_PROHIBITED, I can't find any reference in your cited PKCS#11 spec above. Do you have other standard source for it?

Hi Valerie, yes 0xCE534351L and 0xCE534352L are vendor specific but I added them because we got those  (well the first one) in our jtreg test (please see JDK-8282538 for a detailled description,  we got the same on RHEL9 instead of CentOS). So they are rather common errors on Linux I think and it would be nice to have them.
The  CKR_COPY_PROHIBITED  seems to be deprecated, see this discussion  https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/pkcs11/201306/msg00073.html  ;  so maybe we do not need it any more these days.
The older documentation still mentions it http://docs.oasis-open.org/pkcs11/pkcs11-base/v2.40/cs01/pkcs11-base-v2.40-cs01.html  .
