SHA224Pack, SHA224Unpack

Packs/unpacks the IppsSHA224State context into/from a user-defined buffer.

Syntax

IppStatus ippsSHA224Pack (const IppsSHA224State* pCtx, Ipp8u* pBuffer);

IppStatus ippsSHA224Unpack (const Ipp8u* pBuffer, IppsSHA224State* pCtx);

Include Files

ippcp.h

Parameters

pCtx

Pointer to the IppsSHA224State context.

pBuffer

Pointer to the user-defined buffer.

Description

The SHA224Pack function transforms the *pCtx context to a position-independent form and stores it in the *pBuffer buffer. The SHA224Unpack function performs the inverse operation, that is, transforms the contents of the *pBuffer buffer into a normal IppsSHA224State context. The SHA224Pack and SHA224Unpack functions enable replacing the position-dependent IppsSHA224State context in the memory.

Call the SHA224GetSize function prior to SHA224Pack/SHA224Unpack to determine the size of the buffer.

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.
