EVP_sm4_cbc3ssl

Evp sm4 cipher

Usage

 #include <openssl/evp.h>
 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_sm4_cbc(void);
 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_sm4_ecb(void);
 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_sm4_cfb(void);
 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_sm4_cfb128(void);
 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_sm4_ofb(void);
 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_sm4_ctr(void);

Overview

The SM4 blockcipher (GB/T 32907-2016) for EVP.

All modes below use a key length of 128 bits and acts on blocks of 128 bits.

EVP_sm4_cbc(), EVP_sm4_ecb(), EVP_sm4_cfb(), EVP_sm4_cfb128(), EVP_sm4_ofb(), EVP_sm4_ctr()

The SM4 blockcipher with a 128-bit key in CBC, ECB, CFB, OFB and CTR modes respectively.

Notes

Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of calling these functions multiple times and should consider using EVP_CIPHER_fetch(3) with EVP_CIPHER-SM4(7) instead. See "Performance" in crypto(7) for further information.

Return values

These functions return a EVP_CIPHER structure that contains the implementation of the symmetric cipher. See EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for details of the EVP_CIPHER structure.
