Member Function Documentation

◆ GetAlignment()

template<typename WT, unsigned int W, unsigned int X = 1, class BASE = AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy>
unsigned int AdditiveCipherConcretePolicy< WT, W, X, BASE >::GetAlignment ( ) const
inline

Provides data alignment requirements.

Returns
data alignment requirements, in bytes

Internally, the default implementation returns 1. If the stream cipher is implemented using an SSE2 ASM or intrinsics, then the value returned is usually 16.

Definition at line 221 of file strciphr.h.

◆ GetBytesPerIteration()

template<typename WT, unsigned int W, unsigned int X = 1, class BASE = AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy>
unsigned int AdditiveCipherConcretePolicy< WT, W, X, BASE >::GetBytesPerIteration ( ) const
inline

Provides number of bytes operated upon during an iteration.

Returns
bytes operated upon during an iteration, in bytes
See also
GetOptimalBlockSize()

Definition at line 227 of file strciphr.h.

◆ GetIterationsToBuffer()

template<typename WT, unsigned int W, unsigned int X = 1, class BASE = AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy>
unsigned int AdditiveCipherConcretePolicy< WT, W, X, BASE >::GetIterationsToBuffer ( ) const
inline

Provides buffer size based on iterations.

Returns
the buffer size based on iterations, in bytes

Definition at line 231 of file strciphr.h.

◆ CanOperateKeystream()

template<typename WT, unsigned int W, unsigned int X = 1, class BASE = AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy>
bool AdditiveCipherConcretePolicy< WT, W, X, BASE >::CanOperateKeystream ( ) const
inline

Flag indicating.

Returns
true if the stream can be generated independent of the transformation input, false otherwise

CanOperateKeystream(), OperateKeystream(), WriteKeystream()

Definition at line 237 of file strciphr.h.

◆ OperateKeystream()

template<typename WT, unsigned int W, unsigned int X = 1, class BASE = AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy>
virtual void AdditiveCipherConcretePolicy< WT, W, X, BASE >::OperateKeystream ( KeystreamOperation  operation,
byte *  output,
const byte *  input,
size_t  iterationCount 
)
pure virtual

Operates the keystream.

Parameters
operationthe operation with additional flags
outputthe output buffer
inputthe input buffer
iterationCountthe number of iterations to perform on the input

OperateKeystream() will attempt to operate upon GetOptimalBlockSize() buffer, which will be derived from GetBytesPerIteration().

◆ BYTES_PER_ITERATION

template<typename WT, unsigned int W, unsigned int X = 1, class BASE = AdditiveCipherAbstractPolicy>
const int AdditiveCipherConcretePolicy< WT, W, X, BASE >::BYTES_PER_ITERATION = sizeof(WordType) * W
static

Number of bytes for an iteration.

BYTES_PER_ITERATION is the product sizeof(WordType) * W. For example, ChaCha uses 16 each word32, and the value of BYTES_PER_ITERATION is 64. Each invocation of the ChaCha block function produces 64 bytes of keystream.
