AES_CCMInit

Initializes user-supplied memory as the IppsAES_CCMState context for future use.

Syntax

IppStatus ippsAES_CCMInit(const Ipp8u* pKey, int keyLen, IppsAES_CCMState* pState, int ctxSize);

Include Files

ippcp.h

Parameters

pKey

Pointer to the secret key.

keyLen

Length of the secret key.

pState

Pointer to the buffer being initialized as IppsAES_CCMState context.

ctxSize

Size of the buffer being initialized.

Description

The function initializes the memory pointed by pState as the IppsAES_CCMState context. In addition, the function uses the initialization variable and additional authenticated data to provide all necessary key material for both encryption and decryption.

Note

If the pKey pointer is NULL, the function initializes the context with the zero key, which can help you to clean up the actual secret before releasing the context.

Return Values

ippStsNoErr

Indicates no error. Any other value indicates an error or warning.

ippStsNullPtrErr

Indicates an error condition if the pState pointer is NULL.

ippStsLengthErr

Indicates an error condition an error condition if keyLen is not equal to 16, 24, or 32.

ippStsMemAllocErr

Indicates an error condition if the allocated memory is insufficient for the operation.
