Struct Info

pub struct Info<B: Backend> {
    pub backend: B::Info,
    pub revision: u32,
    pub cipher: Cipher,
    pub kdf: Kdf,
    pub bsize_gross: u32,
    pub bsize_net: u32,
}

Information from the container.

Fields

backend: B::Info

Information from the lower backend.

revision: u32

The revision of the header.

cipher: Cipher

The cipher used for encryption.

kdf: Kdf

The key derivation function.

bsize_gross: u32

The gross block size is the block size specified by the backend.

This is the actual size of a block in the backend. Note that the number of userdata bytes per block can be smaller! This is the net block size (Info::bsize_net).

bsize_net: u32

The (net) block size of the container.

The net block size is the number of bytes you can store in a block. It can be less than the gross block size (Info::bsize_gross).

Depending on the selected cipher, you need to store additional data in a block. I.e. an AE-cipher results into a tag, which needs to be stored additionally. Such data must be substracted from the gross block size and results into the net block size.

Trait Implementations

impl<B: Debug + Backend> Debug for Info<B>

where B::Info: Debug,

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<B: PartialEq + Backend> PartialEq for Info<B>

where B::Info: PartialEq,

fn eq(&self, other: &Info<B>) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
