| * Cipher_Mode API improvementsJack Lloyd2016-09-011-18/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Cipher_Mode::update API is more general than needed to just support ciphers (this is due to it previously being an API of Transform which before 8b85b780515 was Cipher_Mode's base class) Define a less general interface `process` which either processes the blocks in-place, producing exactly as much output as there was input, or (SIV/CCM case) saves the entire message for processing in `finish`. These two uses cover all current or anticipated cipher modes. Leaves `update` for compatability with existing callers; all that is needed is an inline function forwarding to `process`. Removes the return type from `start` - in all cipher implementations, this always returned an empty vector. Adds BOTAN_ARG_CHECK macro; right now BOTAN_ASSERT is being used for argument checking in some places, which is not right at all.

|/ | | | | For block ciphers, stream ciphers, hashes, MACs, and cipher modes. Cipher_Mode already had it, with a slightly different usage.
* Remove Transform base classJack Lloyd2016-04-211-3/+150
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With sufficient squinting, Transform provided an abstract base interface that covered both cipher modes and compression algorithms. However it mapped on neither of them particularly well. In addition this API had the same problem that has made me dislike the Pipe/Filter API: given a Transform&, what does it do when you put bits in? Maybe it encrypts. Maybe it compresses. It's a floor wax and a dessert topping! Currently the Cipher_Mode interface is left mostly unchanged, with the APIs previously on Transform just moved down the type hierarchy. I think there are some definite improvements possible here, wrt handling of in-place encryption, but left for a later commit. The compression API is split into two types, Compression_Algorithm and Decompression_Algorithm. Compression_Algorithm's start() call takes the compression level, allowing varying compressions with a single object. And flushing the compression state is moved to a bool param on `Compression_Algorithm::update`. All the nonsense WRT compression algorithms having zero length nonces, input granularity rules, etc as a result of using the Transform interface goes away.
* Add version_cstr (returns const char*) and move tag_size from AEAD tolloyd2015-02-111-0/+5

* Remove algo factory, engines, global RNG, global state, etc.lloyd2015-02-041-0/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert all uses of Algorithm_Factory and the engines to using Algo_Registry The shared pool of entropy sources remains but is moved to EntropySource. With that and few remaining initializations (default OIDs and aliases) moved elsewhere, the global state is empty and init and shutdown are no-ops. Remove almost all of the headers and code for handling the global state, except LibraryInitializer which remains as a compatability stub. Update seeding for blinding so only one hacky almost-global RNG instance needs to be setup instead of across all pubkey uses (it uses either the system RNG or an AutoSeeded_RNG if the system RNG is not available).
* Add a runtime map of string->func() which when called returnlloyd2015-01-281-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Transforms and BlockCiphers. Registration for all types is done at startup but is very cheap as just a std::function and a std::map entry are created, no actual objects are created until needed. This is a huge improvement over Algorithm_Factory which used T::clone() as the function and thus kept a prototype object of each type in memory. Replace existing lookup mechanisms for ciphers, AEADs, and compression to use the transform lookup. The existing Engine framework remains in place for BlockCipher, but the engines now just call to the registry instead of having hardcoded lookups. s/Transformation/Transform/ with typedefs for compatability. Remove lib/selftest code (for runtime selftesting): not the right approach.
* Ensure all files have copyright and license info.lloyd2015-01-101-1/+1
| | | | | Update license header line to specify the terms and refer to the file, neither of which it included before.
* Split off the keyed interfaces of transform to Keyed_Transformlloyd2014-01-181-1/+1
| | | | | Remove the unhelpful 'Algorithm' base class which had previously acted more or less as a global base.
* Move lib into srclloyd2014-01-101-0/+30
