Add OCB cipher mode
* cipher/cipher-ocb.c: New. * cipher/Makefile.am (libcipher_la_SOURCES): Add cipher-ocb.c * cipher/cipher-internal.h (OCB_BLOCK_LEN, OCB_L_TABLE_SIZE): New. (gcry_cipher_handle): Add fields marks.finalize and u_mode.ocb. * cipher/cipher.c (_gcry_cipher_open_internal): Add OCB mode. (_gcry_cipher_open_internal): Setup default taglen of OCB. (cipher_reset): Clear OCB specific data. (cipher_encrypt, cipher_decrypt, _gcry_cipher_authenticate) (_gcry_cipher_gettag, _gcry_cipher_checktag): Call OCB functions. (_gcry_cipher_setiv): Add OCB specific nonce setting. (_gcry_cipher_ctl): Add GCRYCTL_FINALIZE and GCRYCTL_SET_TAGLEN * src/gcrypt.h.in (GCRYCTL_SET_TAGLEN): New. (gcry_cipher_final): New. * cipher/bufhelp.h (buf_xor_1): New. * tests/basic.c (hex2buffer): New. (check_ocb_cipher): New. (main): Call it here. Add option --cipher-modes. * tests/bench-slope.c (bench_aead_encrypt_do_bench): Call gcry_cipher_final. (bench_aead_decrypt_do_bench): Ditto. (bench_aead_authenticate_do_bench): Ditto. Check error code. (bench_ocb_encrypt_do_bench): New. (bench_ocb_decrypt_do_bench): New. (bench_ocb_authenticate_do_bench): New. (ocb_encrypt_ops): New. (ocb_decrypt_ops): New. (ocb_authenticate_ops): New. (cipher_modes): Add them. (cipher_bench_one): Skip wrong block length for OCB. * tests/benchmark.c (cipher_bench): Add field noncelen to MODES. Add OCB support. -- See the comments on top of cipher/cipher-ocb.c for the patent status of the OCB mode. The implementation has not yet been optimized and as such is not faster that the other AEAD modes. A first candidate for optimization is the double_block function. Large improvements can be expected by writing an AES ECB function to work on multiple blocks. Signed-off-by: Werner Koch <wk@gnupg.org>
