GFpSqrt
Computes the square root of an element of the finite field.
Syntax
IppStatus ippsGFpSqrt(const IppsGFpElement* pA, IppsGFpElement* pR, IppsGFpState* pGFp);
Include Files
ippcp.h
Parameters
pA |
Pointer to the context of the finite field element. |
pR |
Pointer to the context of the resulting element of the finite field. |
pGFp |
Pointer to the context of the finite field. |
Description
This function computes the square root of a given element of the GF(p) field. The following pseudocode represents this operation: R ⋅ R = A. The finite field is specified by the pGFp context.
Return Values
ippStsNoErr |
Indicates no error. Any other value indicates an error or warning. |
ippStsNullPtrErr |
Indicates an error condition if any of the specified pointers is NULL. |
ippStsContextMatchErr |
Indicates an error condition if any of the IppsGFpState and IppsGFpElement context parameters does not match the operation. |
ippStsOutOfRangeErr |
Indicates an error condition if pA does not belong to the finite field specified by the context pGFp. |
ippStsBadArgErr |
Indicates an error condition the finite field specified by the context pGFp is not prime. |
ippStsQuadraticNonResidueErr |
Indicates an error condition if pA is a square non-residue element. |
