Detailed Description

template<class BASE>
class CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >

Base class for feedback based stream ciphers with SymmetricCipher interface.

Template Parameters

BASE	AbstractPolicyHolder base class

Definition at line 563 of file strciphr.h.

Member Function Documentation

ProcessData()

template<class BASE >

void CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >::ProcessData	(	byte *	outString,
		const byte *	inString,
		size_t	length
	)

Apply keystream to data.

Parameters

outString	a buffer to write the transformed data
inString	a buffer to read the data
length	the size fo the buffers, in bytes This is the primary method to operate a stream cipher. For example: size_t size = 30; byte plain[size] = "Do or do not; there is no try"; byte cipher[size]; ... ChaCha20 chacha(key, keySize); chacha.ProcessData(cipher, plain, size);

Definition at line 179 of file strciphr.cpp.

Resynchronize()

template<class BASE >

void CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >::Resynchronize	(	const byte *	iv,
		int	length = -1
	)

Resynchronize the cipher.

Parameters

iv	a byte array used to resynchronize the cipher
length	the size of the IV array

Definition at line 171 of file strciphr.cpp.

OptimalBlockSize()

template<class BASE >

unsigned int CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >::OptimalBlockSize ( ) const

inline

Provides number of ideal bytes to process.

Returns

the ideal number of bytes to process Internally, the default implementation returns GetBytesPerIteration()

See also

GetBytesPerIteration() and GetOptimalNextBlockSize()

Definition at line 593 of file strciphr.h.

GetOptimalNextBlockSize()

template<class BASE >

unsigned int CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >::GetOptimalNextBlockSize ( ) const

inline

Provides number of ideal bytes to process.

Returns

the ideal number of bytes to process Internally, the default implementation returns remaining unprocessed bytes

See also

GetBytesPerIteration() and OptimalBlockSize()

Definition at line 599 of file strciphr.h.

OptimalDataAlignment()

template<class BASE >

unsigned int CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >::OptimalDataAlignment ( ) const

inline

Provides number of ideal data alignment.

Returns

the ideal data alignment, in bytes

See also

GetAlignment() and OptimalBlockSize()

Definition at line 604 of file strciphr.h.

IsRandomAccess()

template<class BASE >

bool CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >::IsRandomAccess ( ) const

inline

Flag indicating random access.

Returns

true if the cipher is seekable, false otherwise

See also

Seek()

Definition at line 609 of file strciphr.h.

IsSelfInverting()

template<class BASE >

bool CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >::IsSelfInverting ( ) const

inline

Determines if the cipher is self inverting.

Returns

true if the stream cipher is self inverting, false otherwise

Definition at line 613 of file strciphr.h.

AlgorithmProvider()

template<class BASE >

std::string CFB_CipherTemplate< BASE >::AlgorithmProvider ( ) const

inline

Retrieve the provider of this algorithm.

Returns

the algorithm provider The algorithm provider can be a name like "C++", "SSE", "NEON", "AESNI", "ARMv8" and "Power8". C++ is standard C++ code. Other labels, like SSE, usually indicate a specialized implementation using instructions from a higher instruction set architecture (ISA). Future labels may include external hardware like a hardware security module (HSM). Generally speaking Wei Dai's original IA-32 ASM code falls under "SSE2". Labels like "SSSE3" and "SSE4.1" follow after Wei's code and use intrinsics instead of ASM. Algorithms which combine different instructions or ISAs provide the dominant one. For example on x86 AES/GCM returns "AESNI" rather than "CLMUL" or "AES+SSE4.1" or "AES+CLMUL" or "AES+SSE4.1+CLMUL".

Note

Provider is not universally implemented yet.
