Detailed Description

Galois/Counter Mode (GCM).

The GCM algorithm is specified in

Macro Definition Documentation

GCM_FL_ENCRYPT

#define GCM_FL_ENCRYPT   0x00ff

Perform encryption.

This value is chosen to allow for ANDing with a fragment length.

Definition at line 50 of file gcm.c.

Referenced by gcm_encrypt().

GCM_FL_IV

#define GCM_FL_IV   0x0100

Calculate hash over an initialisation vector value.

The hash calculation for a non 96-bit initialisation vector is identical to the calculation used for additional data, except that the non-additional data length counter is used.

Definition at line 59 of file gcm.c.

Referenced by gcm_process(), and gcm_setiv().

GCM_POLY

#define GCM_POLY   0xe1

GCM field polynomial.

GCM treats 128-bit blocks as polynomials in GF(2^128) with the field polynomial f(x) = 1 + x + x^2 + x^7 + x^128.

In a somewhat bloody-minded interpretation of "big-endian", the constant term (with degree zero) is arbitrarily placed in the leftmost bit of the big-endian binary representation (i.e. the most significant bit of byte 0), thereby failing to correspond to the bit ordering in any CPU architecture in existence. This necessitates some wholly gratuitous byte reversals when constructing the multiplication tables, since all CPUs will treat bit 0 as being the least significant bit within a byte.

The field polynomial maps to the 128-bit constant 0xe1000000000000000000000000000000 (with the x^128 term outside the 128-bit range), and can therefore be treated as a single-byte value.

gcm_cached_key

const union gcm_block* gcm_cached_key

static

Hash key for which multiplication tables are cached.

GCM operates much more efficiently with a cached multiplication table, which costs 4kB per hash key. Since this exceeds the available stack space, we place a single 4kB cache in .bss and recalculate the cached values as required. In the common case of a single HTTPS connection being used to download a (relatively) large file, the same key will be used repeatedly for almost all GCM operations, and so the overhead of recalculation is negligible.

gcm_cached_mult

union gcm_block gcm_cached_mult[256]

static

Cached multiplication table (M0) for Shoup's method.

Each entry within this table represents the result of multiplying the cached hash key by an arbitrary 8-bit polynomial.

gcm_cached_reduce

uint16_t gcm_cached_reduce[256]

static

Cached reduction table (R) for Shoup's method.

Each entry within this table represents the result of multiplying the fixed polynomial x^128 by an arbitrary 8-bit polynomial. Only the leftmost 16 bits are stored, since all other bits within the result will always be zero.
