Both the C version and optimized assembler version of AES cipher used in loop-AES package are based on original Brian Gladman's code, not based on international crypto patch or cryptoapi. By the way, loop-AES's aes.[ch] sources are portable. They compile and run fine in kernel and user space as well in other operating systems. Assembler implementation is a little bit faster than original Brian Gladman's code on Duron 800 MHz: key length 128 bits, encrypt speed 354.3 Mbits/sec key length 128 bits, decrypt speed 359.3 Mbits/sec key length 192 bits, encrypt speed 298.8 Mbits/sec key length 192 bits, decrypt speed 297.7 Mbits/sec key length 256 bits, encrypt speed 258.8 Mbits/sec key length 256 bits, decrypt speed 260.6 Mbits/sec > The current code has the aes context structure as the last parameter on > all calls (as Brian's code).

It makes more sense that way. Regards, Jari Ruusu <jari.ruusu@pp.inet.fi> - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
