53 Each of these requires linking with \fI\-lcrypt\fP.
54 .SH DESCRIPTION
55 These functions encrypt and decrypt 64-bit messages.
56 The
57 .BR setkey ()
58 function sets the key used by
59 .BR encrypt ().
60 The
61 .I key
62 argument used here is an array of 64 bytes, each of which has
63 numerical value 1 or 0.
64 The bytes key[n] where n=8*i-1 are ignored,
65 so that the effective key length is 56 bits.
66 .PP
67 The
68 .BR encrypt ()
69 function modifies the passed buffer, encoding if
70 .I edflag
71 is 0, and decoding if 1 is being passed.
72 Like the
73 .I key
74 argument, also
75 .I block
76 is a bit vector representation of the actual value that is encoded.
77 The result is returned in that same vector.
78 .PP
79 These two functions are not reentrant, that is, the key data is
80 kept in static storage.
81 The functions
82 .BR setkey_r ()
83 and
84 .BR encrypt_r ()
85 are the reentrant versions.
86 They use the following
87 structure to hold the key data:
88 .PP
89 .in +4n
90 .EX
91 struct crypt_data {
92 char keysched[16 * 8];
93 char sb0[32768];
94 char sb1[32768];
95 char sb2[32768];
96 char sb3[32768];
97 char crypt_3_buf[14];
98 char current_salt[2];
99 long int current_saltbits;
100 int direction;
101 int initialized;
102 };
103 .EE
104 .in
105 .PP
106 Before calling
107 .BR setkey_r ()
108 set
109 .I data\->initialized
110 to zero.
111 .SH RETURN VALUE
112 These functions do not return any value.
113 .SH ERRORS
114 Set
115 .I errno
116 to zero before calling the above functions.
117 On success, it is unchanged.
118 .TP
119 .B ENOSYS
120 The function is not provided.
