cipher.rs

1//! SM4 block cipher (GB/T 32907-2016).
2//!
3//! 128-bit block, 128-bit key, 32 Feistel-like rounds.
4//!
5//! # Constant-time stance
6//!
7//! v0.2 W1 ships SM4 with a [`subtle`]-style linear-scan S-box —
8//! [`subtle::ConditionallySelectable::conditional_assign`] over all 256
9//! possible byte inputs per S-box invocation. This costs ~256× per
10//! lookup vs. an LUT-only implementation but keeps the cryptographic
11//! side-channel posture consistent with the rest of the crate. A
12//! bitsliced fast-path is deferred to v0.4 alongside the C-ABI / wasm
13//! work.
14//!
15//! Throughput on the linear-scan S-box is ~1-2M blocks/sec
16//! single-threaded on modern x86 (vs. ~150M for an LUT impl). Document
17//! this on every callsite that cares about throughput.
18//!
19//! # Single-shot API
20//!
21//! v0.2 ships single-shot block-level `encrypt_block` / `decrypt_block`
22//! only. Streaming `BlockCipher`-trait wiring lands in v0.3 alongside
23//! the broader trait generalization.
24//!
25//! # KAT sources
26//!
27//! GB/T 32907-2016 Appendix A.1, two KATs under
28//! key = plaintext = `01 23 45 67 89 ab cd ef fe dc ba 98 76 54 32 10`:
29//!
30//! - Single-block ciphertext:
31//!   `68 1e df 34 d2 06 96 5e 86 b3 e9 4f 53 6e 42 46`.
32//! - 1,000,000-round ciphertext (encrypt 1M times under the same key):
33//!   `59 52 98 c7 c6 fd 27 1f 04 02 f8 04 c3 3d 3f 66`.
34//!
35//! The 1M-round test is `#[ignore]`d by default — at debug-build
36//! linear-scan-S-box speeds it takes minutes. Run with
37//! `cargo test --release -- --ignored` before any release.
