.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

Title "LIFE_CYCLE-CIPHER 7ossl" For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.
life_cycle-cipher - The cipher algorithm life-cycle Header "DESCRIPTION" All symmetric ciphers (CIPHERs) go through a number of stages in their life-cycle: Item "start" This state represents the \s-1CIPHER\s0 before it has been allocated. It is the starting state for any life-cycle transitions. Item "newed" This state represents the \s-1CIPHER\s0 after it has been allocated. Item "initialised" These states represent the \s-1CIPHER\s0 when it is set up and capable of processing input. There are three possible initialised states: Item "updated"

These states represent the \s-1CIPHER\s0 when it is set up and capable of processing additional input or generating output. The three possible states directly correspond to those for initialised above. The three different streams should not be mixed.

Item "finaled" This state represents the \s-1CIPHER\s0 when it has generated output. Item "freed" This state is entered when the \s-1CIPHER\s0 is freed. It is the terminal state for all life-cycle transitions. Subsection "State Transition Diagram" The usual life-cycle of a \s-1CIPHER\s0 is illustrated: +---------------------------+ | | | start | | | +---------------------------+ + - - - - - - - - - - - - - + | ' any of the initialised ' | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new ' updated or finaled states ' v ' ' +---------------------------+ + - - - - - - - - - - - - - + | | | | newed | | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_reset | | <----+ +---------------------------+ | | | +---------+ | +---------+ EVP_DecryptInit | | EVP_CipherInit | EVP_EncryptInit v v v +---------------------------+ +---------------------------+ +---------------------------+ | | | | | | | initialised | | initialised | | initialised | | for decryption | | | | for encryption | +---------------------------+ +---------------------------+ +---------------------------+ | | | | EVP_DecryptUpdate | EVP_CipherUpdate EVP_EncryptUpdate | | v | | +---------------------------+ | | | |--------------------+ | | | updated | EVP_CipherUpdate | | | | | <------------------+ | v +---------------------------+ v +---------------------------+ | +---------------------------+ | |---------------------+ | | | | updated | EVP_DecryptUpdate | | | updated |------+ | for decryption | <-------------------+ | | for encryption | | +---------------------------+ | +---------------------------+ | | EVP_CipherFinal | | ^ | +-------+ | +--------+ | | EVP_DecryptFinal | | | EVP_EncryptFinal +-------------------+ v v v EVP_EncryptUpdate +---------------------------+ | |-----------------------------+ | finaled | | | | <---------------------------+ +---------------------------+ EVP_CIPHER_CTX_get_params | (AEAD encryption) | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free v +---------------------------+ | | | freed | | | +---------------------------+ Subsection "Formal State Transitions" This section defines all of the legal state transitions.
