| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | LibraryInitializer::initialize(), which will set it for us (or fail by throwing an exception, which will be propogated to the caller). So any instances of creating a LibraryInitializer where no option arguments are passed can be removed; instead that initialization will run when or if you execute an operation where Botan requires the services provided in the state. Because no options are passed, the library will be using the default (debug and not thread safe) mutex type: so hopefully you'll quickly get an exception when the debug mutex realizes it is being used in a threaded application, but there is risk of operations silently failing before that happens. You can call LibraryInitializer::deinitialize() at the end of your main function (or whenever you think you won't need Botan anymore), to free the global state; if not a number of cleanup destructors will not run (including the final scrub of memory). You can even shut down Botan speculatively; if it turns out you need it again, it just means you'll have to take the cost of another initialization. However in applications that use Botan only in small bursts, or in rarely taken codepaths, you can remove the state entirely and suffer zero memory overhead. This probably only makes sense in memory constrained systems, but it's reasonable to do now. Speculatively deallocating the state is probably not thread safe without extra work. One thread calling deinitialize() would invalidate pointers that would have been visible to other threads. One (untested) idea: have an atomic integer with the number of current threads using Botan. If any thread decrements and hits zero, it could deinitialize Botan safely. This might cause too many repeated startup/shutdowns, which would depend on the app use pattern. In addition, since you can't pass arguments to the new Library_State, you can't specify the use of real mutexes (or anything else): so for right now, this only works in applications that are fine with the standard options. I want to find a way to get that working, though, since it's very inelegant. Currently a Default_Mutex (not at all thread safe but somewhat error checking) will be used. And self test will always be run (more on that below). I wrote a program that just initializes and shuts down in a tight loop. Running on my Gentoo box (Core2 E6400, gcc 4.1.2): thread_safe? selftest? time (ms) ------------ --------- --------- no yes 6.1 no no 3.8 yes yes 6.7 yes no 3.8 If you're actually worried that the library might start up OK but then start failing basic self tests, what you actually want to do is have a thread that runs diagnostics on your entire process state (including calling Botan's self test code) every N seconds. The question is how to get arguments from the outside world to the constructor of the Library_State that is created inside of global_state(): avoiding many self tests to save a bit of time (many applications won't care about the extra cost but sometimes 2 or 3 ms is important), and thread safety (beacuse you can't specify to use a real mutex).

| | | | | | | The test vectors were generated by Crypto++ 5.5 on a Linux/x86-64 machine. Test vectors for CBC-MAC(DES) all pass, for inputs up to 63 bytes. For CBC-MAC(AES-128), all test vectors with inputs over 10 bytes fail to verify against what Crypto++ produces. Unknown at this time where the bug lies.

* If an algorithm cache lookup fails, index the newly created prototype objectlloyd2007-07-171-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | under the name that the algorithm was originally requested by. This enables proper caching for algorithm names which deref_alias fails to fully dereference such as "HMAC(SHA-1)". The previous code had two major problems with names of that type, firstly that the cache was effectively bypassed due to all prototype objects in Algorithm_Cache_Impl being indexed by their canonical names rather than the alias that they were requested under, and that there existed a race condition where a prototype object might be deleted while in use in multithreaded code. The downside of this change is that using multiple names to refer to a single algorithm causes multiple prototype objects to be created, one for each name that is in use. However the memory overhead of this should be fairly minimal and given the severity of the race condition this seems like a worthwhile tradeoff. A more complete fix would be to fix deref_alias to properly derference all alias names. That fix would be complimentary with this change in that if deref_alias handled all names properly there would be a single prototype object and there would then be no additional memory overhead to the cache.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | into account endian differences. The current code does not take advantage of the knowledge of which endianness we are running on; an optimization suggested by Yves Jerschow is to use (unsafe) casts to speed up the load/store operations. This turns out to provide large performance increases (30% or more) in some cases. Even without the unsafe casts, this version seems to average a few percent faster, probably because the longer loading loops have been partially or fully unrolled. This also makes the code implementing low-level algorithms like ciphers and hashes a bit more succint.
