ecb_crypt() and
cbc_crypt() implement the
NBS
DES (Data Encryption Standard). These routines are faster and
more general purpose than
crypt(3). They also are able to utilize
DES hardware if it is available.
ecb_crypt() encrypts in
ECB (Electronic Code Book) mode, which encrypts blocks of data
independently.
cbc_crypt() encrypts in
CBC (Cipher Block
Chaining) mode, which chains together successive blocks.
CBC
mode protects against insertions, deletions and substitutions of blocks. Also,
regularities in the clear text will not appear in the cipher text.
Here is how to use these routines. The first parameter,
key, is the
8-byte encryption key with parity. To set the key's parity, which for
DES is in the low bit of each byte, use
des_setparity.
The second parameter,
data, contains the data to be encrypted or
decrypted. The third parameter,
datalen, is the length in bytes of
data, which must be a multiple of 8. The fourth parameter,
mode,
is formed by
OR'ing together some things. For the encryption
direction 'or' in either
DES_ENCRYPT or
DES_DECRYPT. For software versus hardware encryption, 'or' in
either
DES_HW or
DES_SW. If
DES_HW is specified, and there is no hardware, then the
encryption is performed in software and the routine returns
DESERR_NOHWDEVICE. For
cbc_crypt, the parameter
ivec is the the 8-byte initialization vector for the chaining. It is
updated to the next initialization vector upon return.
des(1),
crypt(3) and
xcrypt(3)
- DESERR_NONE
- No error.
- DESERR_NOHWDEVICE
- Encryption succeeded, but done in software instead of the
requested hardware.
- DESERR_HWERROR
- An error occurred in the hardware or driver.
- DESERR_BADPARAM
- Bad parameter to routine.
Given a result status
stat, the macro
DES_FAILED(stat) is false only for the first two
statuses.
These routines are present in libc 4.6.27 and later, and in glibc 2.1 and
later.
