- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
- All of the functions described on this page are deprecated. Applications should
- instead use \fBEVP_EncryptInit_ex\fR\|(3), \fBEVP_EncryptUpdate\fR\|(3) and
- \&\fBEVP_EncryptFinal_ex\fR\|(3) or the equivalently named decrypt functions.
- .PP
- This library implements the Blowfish cipher, which was invented and described
- by Counterpane (see http://www.counterpane.com/blowfish.html ).
- .PP
- Blowfish is a block cipher that operates on 64 bit (8 byte) blocks of data.
- It uses a variable size key, but typically, 128 bit (16 byte) keys are
- considered good for strong encryption. Blowfish can be used in the same
- modes as DES (see \fBdes_modes\fR\|(7)). Blowfish is currently one
- of the faster block ciphers. It is quite a bit faster than DES, and much
- faster than IDEA or RC2.
- .PP
- Blowfish consists of a key setup phase and the actual encryption or decryption
- phase.
- .PP
- \&\fBBF_set_key()\fR sets up the \fBBF_KEY\fR \fBkey\fR using the \fBlen\fR bytes long key
- at \fBdata\fR.
- .PP
- \&\fBBF_ecb_encrypt()\fR is the basic Blowfish encryption and decryption function.
- It encrypts or decrypts the first 64 bits of \fBin\fR using the key \fBkey\fR,
- putting the result in \fBout\fR. \fBenc\fR decides if encryption (\fBBF_ENCRYPT\fR)
- or decryption (\fBBF_DECRYPT\fR) shall be performed. The vector pointed at by
- \&\fBin\fR and \fBout\fR must be 64 bits in length, no less. If they are larger,
- everything after the first 64 bits is ignored.
- .PP
- The mode functions \fBBF_cbc_encrypt()\fR, \fBBF_cfb64_encrypt()\fR and \fBBF_ofb64_encrypt()\fR
- all operate on variable length data. They all take an initialization vector
- \&\fBivec\fR which needs to be passed along into the next call of the same function
- for the same message. \fBivec\fR may be initialized with anything, but the
- recipient needs to know what it was initialized with, or it won't be able
- to decrypt. Some programs and protocols simplify this, like SSH, where
- \&\fBivec\fR is simply initialized to zero.
- \&\fBBF_cbc_encrypt()\fR operates on data that is a multiple of 8 bytes long, while
- \&\fBBF_cfb64_encrypt()\fR and \fBBF_ofb64_encrypt()\fR are used to encrypt a variable
- number of bytes (the amount does not have to be an exact multiple of 8). The
- purpose of the latter two is to simulate stream ciphers, and therefore, they
- need the parameter \fBnum\fR, which is a pointer to an integer where the current
- offset in \fBivec\fR is stored between calls. This integer must be initialized
- to zero when \fBivec\fR is initialized.
- .PP
- \&\fBBF_cbc_encrypt()\fR is the Cipher Block Chaining function for Blowfish. It
- encrypts or decrypts the 64 bits chunks of \fBin\fR using the key \fBschedule\fR,
- putting the result in \fBout\fR. \fBenc\fR decides if encryption (BF_ENCRYPT) or
- decryption (BF_DECRYPT) shall be performed. \fBivec\fR must point at an 8 byte
- long initialization vector.
- .PP
- \&\fBBF_cfb64_encrypt()\fR is the CFB mode for Blowfish with 64 bit feedback.
- It encrypts or decrypts the bytes in \fBin\fR using the key \fBschedule\fR,
- putting the result in \fBout\fR. \fBenc\fR decides if encryption (\fBBF_ENCRYPT\fR)
- or decryption (\fBBF_DECRYPT\fR) shall be performed. \fBivec\fR must point at an
- 8 byte long initialization vector. \fBnum\fR must point at an integer which must
- be initially zero.
- .PP
- \&\fBBF_ofb64_encrypt()\fR is the OFB mode for Blowfish with 64 bit feedback.
- It uses the same parameters as \fBBF_cfb64_encrypt()\fR, which must be initialized
- the same way.
- .PP
- \&\fBBF_encrypt()\fR and \fBBF_decrypt()\fR are the lowest level functions for Blowfish
- encryption. They encrypt/decrypt the first 64 bits of the vector pointed by
- \&\fBdata\fR, using the key \fBkey\fR. These functions should not be used unless you
- implement 'modes' of Blowfish. The alternative is to use \fBBF_ecb_encrypt()\fR.
- If you still want to use these functions, you should be aware that they take
- each 32\-bit chunk in host-byte order, which is little-endian on little-endian
- platforms and big-endian on big-endian ones.
- .SH "RETURN VALUES"
- .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
- None of the functions presented here return any value.
