| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | parameters are as well. So make them template paramters. The sole exception was AES, because you could either initialize AES with a fixed key length, in which case it would only be that specific key length, or not, in which case it would support any valid AES key size. This is removed in this checkin; you have to specifically ask for AES-128, AES-192, or AES-256, depending on which one you want. This is probably actually a good thing, because every implementation other than the base one (SSSE3, AES-NI, OpenSSL) did not support "AES", only the versions with specific fixed key sizes. So forcing the user to ask for the one they want ensures they get the ones that are faster and/or safer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | sets the block size statically and also creates an enum with the size. Use the enum instead of calling block_size() where possible, since that uses two virtual function calls per block which is quite unfortunate. The real advantages here as compared to the previous version which kept the block size as a per-object u32bit: - The compiler can inline the constant as an immediate operand (previously it would load the value via an indirection on this) - Removes 32 bits per object overhead (except in cases with actually variable block sizes, which are very few and rarely used)

This is a old vestigal thing from a class (SecureBuffer) that used this compile-time constant in order to store the values in an array. However this was changed way back in 2002 to use the same allocator hooks as the rest of the containers, so the only advantage to using the length field was that the initial length was set and didn't have to be set in the constructor which was midly convenient. However this directly conflicts with the desire to be able to (eventually) use std::vector with a custom allocator, since of course vector doesn't support this. Fortunately almost all of the uses are in classes which have only a single constructor, so there is little to no duplication by instead initializing the size in the constructor.
* Big, invasive but mostly automated change, with a further attempt atlloyd2010-09-071-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | harmonising MemoryRegion with std::vector: The MemoryRegion::clear() function would zeroise the buffer, but keep the memory allocated and the size unchanged. This is very different from STL's clear(), which is basically the equivalent to what is called destroy() in MemoryRegion. So to be able to replace MemoryRegion with a std::vector, we have to rename destroy() to clear() and we have to expose the current functionality of clear() in some other way, since vector doesn't support this operation. Do so by adding a global function named zeroise() which takes a MemoryRegion which is zeroed. Remove clear() to ensure all callers are updated.

And Visual C++ doesn't know about _mm_set_epi64x() in 32-bit mode for similarly dumb reasons - it works fine compiling for 64 bit but for whatever reason they don't offer this function when compiling as 32 bit. Unfortunately there isn't a good way to specify it's OK with a particular compiler with one arch but not another, so just disable it globally for the time being. The workaround for VC++ is probably to use _mm_set_epi32 and break up the input values into 32 bit chunks. ICC is a lost cause I fear.
* Add an implementation of AES-128 using SSSE3 instructions. It runs inlloyd2010-08-093-0/+454
constant time and on a Nehalem is significantly faster than the table based version. This implementation technique was invented by Mike Hamburg and described in a paper in CHES 2009 "Accelerating AES with Vector Permute Instructions". This code is basically a translation of his public domain x86-64 assembly code into intrinsics. Todo: Adding support for AES-192 and AES-256; this just requires implementing the key schedules. Currently only tested on an i7 with GCC (32 and 64 bit code); testing/optimization on 32-bit processors with SSSE3 like the Atom, and with Visual C++ and other compilers, are also todos.
