This is a trivial implementation that just does a or[xor] loop.
However, this pattern is used by virtually all crypto libraries and
in practice, even without assembly barriers, LLVM never turns it into
code with conditional jumps, even if one of the parameters is constant.
This has been verified to still be the case with LLVM 11.0.0.
- use `PascalCase` for all types. So, AES256GCM is now Aes256Gcm.
- consistently use `_length` instead of mixing `_size` and `_length` for the
constants we expose
- Use `minimum_key_length` when it represents an actual minimum length.
Otherwise, use `key_length`.
- Require output buffers (for ciphertexts, macs, hashes) to be of the right
size, not at least of that size in some functions, and the exact size elsewhere.
- Use a `_bits` suffix instead of `_length` when a size is represented as a
number of bits to avoid confusion.
- Functions returning a constant-sized slice are now defined as a slice instead
of a pointer + a runtime assertion. This is the case for most hash functions.
- Use `camelCase` for all functions instead of `snake_case`.
No functional changes, but these are breaking API changes.
* Implements #3768. This is a sweeping breaking change that requires
many (trivial) edits to Zig source code. Array values no longer
coerced to slices; however one may use `&` to obtain a reference to
an array value, which may then be coerced to a slice.
* Adds `IrInstruction::dump`, for debugging purposes. It's useful to
call to inspect the instruction when debugging Zig IR.
* Fixes bugs with result location semantics. See the new behavior test
cases, and compile error test cases.
* Fixes bugs with `@typeInfo` not properly resolving const values.
* Behavior tests are passing but std lib tests are not yet. There
is more work to do before merging this branch.
