A `no_std` compatible Rust implementation of the Gimli cryptographic permutation and its applications:
- AEAD (`aead/gimli24v1`): Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data
- Hash (`hash/gimli24v1`): Cryptographic hash function
Based on the [Gimli specification](https://gimli.cr.yp.to/) by Bernstein et al.
## Usage
### AEAD Encryption (In-Place)
```rust
use gimli_crypto::{encrypt_in_place, decrypt_in_place, KEY_SIZE, NONCE_SIZE};
let key = [0u8; KEY_SIZE];
let nonce = [1u8; NONCE_SIZE]; // MUST be unique per encryption!
let mut data = *b"Secret message!!";
let aad = b"public header";
// Encrypt in-place
let tag = encrypt_in_place(&key, &nonce, aad, &mut data);
// Decrypt in-place with authentication
decrypt_in_place(&key, &nonce, aad, &mut data, &tag)
.expect("authentication failed");
assert_eq!(&data, b"Secret message!!");
```
### AEAD Encryption (RustCrypto Trait)
```rust
use gimli_crypto::GimliAead;
use aead::{AeadInPlace, KeyInit};
use aead::generic_array::GenericArray;
let key = GenericArray::from([1u8; 32]);
let cipher = GimliAead::new(&key);
let nonce = GenericArray::from([2u8; 16]);
let plaintext = *b"Hello, RustCrypto AEAD!";
let aad = b"associated data";
let mut ciphertext = plaintext.clone();
let tag = cipher
.encrypt_in_place_detached(&nonce, aad, &mut ciphertext)
.expect("encryption failed");
cipher
.decrypt_in_place_detached(&nonce, aad, &mut ciphertext, &tag)
.expect("decryption failed");
assert_eq!(&ciphertext, b"Hello, RustCrypto AEAD!");
```
### Cryptographic Hash
```rust
use gimli_crypto::{hash, Hasher};
// One-shot hashing
let digest = hash(b"Hello, Gimli!");
assert_eq!(digest.len(), 32); // 256-bit output
// Incremental hashing
let mut hasher = Hasher::new();
hasher.update(b"Hello, ");
hasher.update(b"Gimli!");
let digest2 = hasher.finalize();
assert_eq!(digest, digest2);
```
### Hash (RustCrypto Digest Trait)
```rust
use gimli_crypto::GimliHash;
use digest::Digest;
let mut hasher = GimliHash::new();
hasher.update(b"Hello, ");
hasher.update(b"Gimli!");
let result = hasher.finalize();
```
