Parameters

febitSize

Size, in bytes, of the odd prime number q (modulus of GF(q)).

pSize

Pointer to the buffer size, in bytes, needed for the IppsGFpState context.

Description

This function returns the size of the buffer associated with the IppsGFpState context, which you can use to store data of the finite field GF(q) determined by the odd prime number q of size not greater than febitSize bit.

Return Values

ippStsNoErr

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

ippStsNullPtrErr

Indicates an error condition if any of the specified pointers is NULL.

ippStsSizeErr

Indicates an error condition if febitSize is less than 2 or greater than 1024.
