Description: Classic McEliece microlibrary - development files
libmceliece is a Classic McEliece microlibrary.
libmceliece has a very simple stateless API based on the SUPERCOP API,
with wire-format inputs and outputs, providing functions that directly match
the KEM operations provided by Classic McEliece, such as functions
.
mceliece6960119_keypair
mceliece6960119_enc
mceliece6960119_dec
for the mceliece6960119 KEM.
.
Internally, libmceliece is based on the official Classic McEliece software,
specifically the vec implementation (designed to work portably across CPUs) and
he avx implementation (designed for higher performance on Intel/AMD CPUs with
AVX2 instructions). libmceliece includes automatic run-time selection
of implementations.
.
libmceliece is intended to be called by larger multi-function libraries
(such as traditional cryptographic libraries), including libraries in other
languages via FFI. The idea is that libmceliece takes responsibility for
the details of Classic McEliece computation, including optimization,
timing-attack protection, and (in ongoing work) verification,
freeing up the calling libraries to concentrate on application-specific
needs such as protocol integration. Applications can also call libmceliece
directly.
