Detailed Description

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>
class AdditiveCipherTemplate< BASE >

Base class for additive stream ciphers with SymmetricCipher interface.

Template Parameters

BASE	AbstractPolicyHolder base class

Member Function Documentation

◆ GenerateBlock()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

void AdditiveCipherTemplate< BASE >::GenerateBlock	(	byte *	output,
		size_t	size
	)

virtual

Generate random array of bytes.

Parameters

output	the byte buffer
size	the length of the buffer, in bytes

All generated values are uniformly distributed over the range specified within the constraints of a particular generator.

Reimplemented from RandomNumberGenerator.

◆ ProcessData()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

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

virtual

Apply keystream to data.

Parameters

outString	a buffer to write the transformed data
inString	a buffer to read the data
length	the size of 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);

You should use distinct buffers for inString and outString. If the buffers are the same, then the data will be copied to an internal buffer to avoid GCC alias violations. The internal copy will impact performance.

Implements StreamTransformation.

◆ Resynchronize()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

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

virtual

Resynchronize the cipher.

Parameters

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

Reimplemented from SimpleKeyingInterface.

◆ OptimalBlockSize()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

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

inlinevirtual

Provides number of ideal bytes to process.

Returns: the ideal number of bytes to process

◆ GetOptimalNextBlockSize()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

unsigned int AdditiveCipherTemplate< 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 346 of file strciphr.h.

◆ OptimalDataAlignment()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

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

inlinevirtual

Provides number of ideal data alignment.

Returns: the ideal data alignment, in bytes

Definition at line 351 of file strciphr.h.

◆ IsSelfInverting()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

bool AdditiveCipherTemplate< BASE >::IsSelfInverting ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Determines if the cipher is self inverting.

Returns: true if the stream cipher is self inverting, false otherwise

Implements StreamTransformation.

Definition at line 355 of file strciphr.h.

◆ IsForwardTransformation()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

bool AdditiveCipherTemplate< BASE >::IsForwardTransformation ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Determines if the cipher is a forward transformation.

Returns: true if the stream cipher is a forward transformation, false otherwise

Implements StreamTransformation.

Definition at line 359 of file strciphr.h.

◆ IsRandomAccess()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

bool AdditiveCipherTemplate< BASE >::IsRandomAccess ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Flag indicating random access.

Returns: true if the cipher is seekable, false otherwise

See also: Seek()

Implements StreamTransformation.

Definition at line 364 of file strciphr.h.

◆ Seek()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

void AdditiveCipherTemplate< BASE >::Seek ( lword position )

virtual

Seeks to a random position in the stream.

Parameters

position the absolute position in the stream

See also: IsRandomAccess()

Reimplemented from StreamTransformation.

◆ AlgorithmProvider()

template<class BASE = AbstractPolicyHolder<AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy, SymmetricCipher>>

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

inlinevirtual

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.

Reimplemented from Algorithm.
