Member Function Documentation

◆ OptimalBlockSize()

template<class T , class BASE >
unsigned int IteratedHashBase< T, BASE >::OptimalBlockSize ( ) const
inline

Provides the input block size most efficient for this cipher.

Returns
The input block size that is most efficient for the cipher

The base class implementation returns MandatoryBlockSize().

Note
Optimal input length is n * OptimalBlockSize() - GetOptimalBlockSizeUsed() for any n > 0.

Definition at line 53 of file iterhash.h.

◆ OptimalDataAlignment()

template<class T , class BASE >
unsigned int IteratedHashBase< T, BASE >::OptimalDataAlignment ( ) const
inline

Provides input and output data alignment for optimal performance.

Returns
the input data alignment that provides optimal performance

OptimalDataAlignment returns the natural alignment of the hash word.

Definition at line 58 of file iterhash.h.

◆ Update()

template<class T , class BASE >
void IteratedHashBase< T, BASE >::Update ( const byte input,
size_t  length 
)

Updates a hash with additional input.

Parameters
inputthe additional input as a buffer
lengththe size of the buffer, in bytes

Definition at line 13 of file iterhash.cpp.

◆ CreateUpdateSpace()

template<class T , class BASE >
byte * IteratedHashBase< T, BASE >::CreateUpdateSpace ( size_t &  size)

Requests space which can be written into by the caller.

Parameters
sizethe requested size of the buffer

The purpose of this method is to help avoid extra memory allocations.

size is an IN and OUT parameter and used as a hint. When the call is made, size is the requested size of the buffer. When the call returns, size is the size of the array returned to the caller.

The base class implementation sets size to 0 and returns NULL.

Note
Some objects, like ArraySink, cannot create a space because its fixed.

Definition at line 85 of file iterhash.cpp.

◆ Restart()

template<class T , class BASE >
void IteratedHashBase< T, BASE >::Restart

Restart the hash.

Discards the current state, and restart for a new message

Definition at line 159 of file iterhash.cpp.

◆ TruncatedFinal()

template<class T , class BASE >
void IteratedHashBase< T, BASE >::TruncatedFinal ( byte digest,
size_t  digestSize 
)

Computes the hash of the current message.

Parameters
digesta pointer to the buffer to receive the hash
digestSizethe size of the truncated digest, in bytes

TruncatedFinal() calls Final() and then copies digestSize bytes to digest. The hash is restarted the hash for the next message.

Reimplemented in Weak::PanamaHash< LittleEndian >.

Definition at line 165 of file iterhash.cpp.

◆ AlgorithmProvider()

template<class T , class BASE >
virtual std::string IteratedHashBase< T, BASE >::AlgorithmProvider ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Retrieve the provider of this algorithm.

Returns
the algorithm provider

The algorithm provider can be a name like "C++", "SSE", "NEON", "AESNI", "ARMv8" and "Power8". C++ is standard C++ code. Other labels, like SSE, usually indicate a specialized implementation using instructions from a higher instruction set architecture (ISA). Future labels may include external hardware like a hardware security module (HSM).

Note
Provider is not universally implemented yet.

Reimplemented in Weak::PanamaHash< B >, Weak::PanamaHash< LittleEndian >, SHA1, SHA256, SHA224, SHA512, SHA384, Tiger, VMAC_Base, and Whirlpool.
