GFpMul

Multiplies two elements of the finite field.

Syntax

IppStatus ippsGFpMul(const IppsGFpElement* pA, const IppsGFpElement* pB, IppsGFpElement* pR, IppsGFpState* pGFp);

ippcp.h

Parameters

pA

Pointer to the context of the first multiplicand element of the finite field.

pB

Pointer to the context of the second multiplicand element of the finite field.

pR

Pointer to the context of the resulting element of the finite field.

pGFp

Pointer to the context of the finite field.

Description

This function computes the product of two elements of the finite field. The following pseudocode represents this operation: R = A B. The finite field is specified by the context pGFp.

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.

ippStsContextMatchErr

Indicates an error condition if either IppsGFpState or IppsGFpElement context parameters do not match the operation.

ippStsOutOfRangeErr

Indicates an error condition if pA or pB does not belong to the finite field specified by the context pGFp.
