Parent topic:MPLAB® Harmony Crypto Library

C

int CRYPT_AES_GCM_Decrypt(
    CRYPT_AES_CTX* aes, 
    unsigned char* out, 
    const unsigned char* in, 
    unsigned int sz, 
    const unsigned char* iv, 
    unsigned int ivSz, 
    const unsigned char* authTag, 
    unsigned int authTagSz, 
    const unsigned char* authIn, 
    unsigned int authInSz
);

Description

This function decrypts a block of data using the AES algorithm in Galois/Counter Mode (GCM).

Preconditions

Key must be set earlier with a call to CRYPT_AES_GCM_SetKey.

Parameters

Parameters	Description
aes	Pointer to context which saves state between calls.
out	Pointer to buffer to store the results of the decryption pass.
in	Pointer to buffer holding the data to be decrypted.
sz	Size of the input data, in bytes.
iv	Pointer to the initialization vector.
ivSz	Size of the initialization vector.
authTag	Pointer to the buffer to store the authentication tag.
authTagSz	Size of the authentication tag.
authIn	Pointer to the additional authentication data.
authInSz	Size of the additional authentication data.

Returns

• BAD_FUNC_ARG - An invalid pointer was passed to the function. -AES_GCM_AUTH_E - The authTag is incorrect.

• 0 - An invalid pointer was not passed to the function.

Remarks

The output buffer must be equal in size to the input buffer.
