* In all cases where the block size of the cipher is fixed, the keylloyd2010-10-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Add a new subclass for BlockCipher BlockCipher_Fixed_Block_Size, whichlloyd2010-10-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the initial/default length of the array, update all users to instead pass the value to the constructor. 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 atlloyd2010-09-071-1/+1

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.

* Remove SecureBuffer, which is the fixed-size variant of SecureVector.lloyd2010-03-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a second template param to SecureVector which specifies the initial length. Change all callers to be SecureVector instead of SecureBuffer. This can go away in C++0x, once compilers implement N2712 ("Non-static data member initializers"), and we can just write code as SecureVector<byte> P{18}; instead

Doesn't offer much advantage as-is (though might help slightly, in terms of cache effects), but allows for SIMD implementations to process multiple blocks in parallel when possible. Particularly thinking here of Serpent; TEA/XTEA also seem promising in this sense, as is Threefish once that is implemented as a standalone block cipher.

One handy Perl script later and each file now has the line Distributed under the terms of the Botan license after the copyright notices. While I was in there modifying every file anyway, I also stripped out the remainder of the block comments (lots of astericks before and after the text); this is stylistic thing I picked up when I was first learning C++ but in retrospect it is not a good style as the structure makes it harder to modify comments (with the result that comments become fewer, shorter and are less likely to be updated, which are not good things).
