Notational Conventions
The code and syntax used in this document for function and variable declarations are written in the ANSI C style. However, versions of Intel® Cryptography Primitives Library for different processors or operating systems may, of necessity, vary slightly.
Product and Performance Information
Performance varies by use, configuration and other factors. Learn more at https://edc.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/performance/benchmarks/overview/. Notice revision #20201201In this document, notational conventions include:
Fonts used for distinction between the text and the code
Naming conventions for different items.
Font Conventions
The following font conventions are used throughout this document:
This type style |
Mixed with the uppercase in function names, code examples, and call statements, for example, ippsAdd_BNU. |
This type style |
Parameters in function prototype parameters and parameters description, for example, pCtx, pSrcMesg. |
Naming Conventions
The naming conventions for different items are the same as used by the Intel® Cryptography Primitives Library software.
All names of the functions used for cryptographic operations have the ipps prefix. In code examples, you can distinguish the Intel® Cryptography Primitives Library interface functions from the application functions by this prefix.
NOTE:In this document, each function is introduced by its short name (without the ipps prefix and descriptors) and a brief description of its purpose.The ipps prefix in function names is always used in code examples and function prototypes. In the text, this prefix is omitted when referring to the function group.
Each new part of a function name starts with an uppercase character, without underscore, for example, ippsDESInit.
