Subject: [PATCH 1/1]: Add countersize to CTR
Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2007 15:26:29 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200710232026.l9NKQTkC000737@faith.austin.ibm.com> (raw)

This patch adds countersize to CTR mode. 
The template is now ctr(algo,noncesize,ivsize,countersize).

For example, ctr(aes,4,8,4) indicates the counterblock
will be composed of a salt/nonce that is 4 bytes, an iv
that is 8 bytes and the counter is 4 bytes.

When noncesize + ivsize + countersize == blocksize, 
CTR initializes the counter portion of the block and
begins encrypting with counter set to 1.  

If noncesize + ivsize == blocksize, then this indicates that
user is passing in entire counterblock. Thus countersize 
indicates the amount of bytes in counterblock to use as 
the counter for incrementing. CTR will increment counter 
portion by 1, and begin encryption with that value. 

Note that CTR assumes the counter portion of the block that
will be incremented is stored in big endian.

Please let me know if this looks ok.

Regards,
Joy
