ENCRYPT(3) Linux Programmer's Manual ENCRYPT(3)
NAME
encrypt, setkey, encrypt_r, setkey_r - encrypt 64-bit messages
SYNOPSIS
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <unistd.h>
void encrypt(char block[64], int edflag);
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <stdlib.h>
void setkey(const char *key);
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <crypt.h>
void setkey_r(const char *key, struct crypt_data *data);
void encrypt_r(char *block, int edflag, struct crypt_data *data);
Each of these requires linking with -lcrypt.
DESCRIPTION
These functions encrypt and decrypt 64-bit messages. The setkey() function sets the key
used by encrypt(). The key argument used here is an array of 64 bytes, each of which has
numerical value 1 or 0. The bytes key[n] where n=8*i-1 are ignored, so that the effective
key length is 56 bits.
The encrypt() function modifies the passed buffer, encoding if edflag is 0, and decoding
if 1 is being passed. Like the key argument, also block is a bit vector representation of
the actual value that is encoded. The result is returned in that same vector.
These two functions are not reentrant, that is, the key data is kept in static storage.
The functions setkey_r() and encrypt_r() are the reentrant versions. They use the follow‐
ing structure to hold the key data:
struct crypt_data {
char keysched[16 * 8];
char sb0[32768];
char sb1[32768];
char sb2[32768];
char sb3[32768];
char crypt_3_buf[14];
char current_salt[2];
long int current_saltbits;
int direction;
int initialized;
};
Before calling setkey_r() set data->initialized to zero.
RETURN VALUE
These functions do not return any value.
ERRORS
Set errno to zero before calling the above functions. On success, it is unchanged.
ENOSYS The function is not provided. (For example because of former USA export restric‐
tions.)
ATTRIBUTES
Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
The encrypt() and setkey() functions are not thread-safe.
The encrypt_r() and setkey_r() functions are thread-safe.
CONFORMING TO
The functions encrypt() and setkey() conform to SVr4, SUSv2, and POSIX.1-2001. The func‐
tions encrypt_r() and setkey_r() are GNU extensions.
NOTES
In glibc 2.2, these functions use the DES algorithm.
EXAMPLE
You need to link with libcrypt to compile this example with glibc. To do useful work, the
key[] and txt[] arrays must be filled with a useful bit pattern.
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int
main(void)
{
char key[64]; /* bit pattern for key */
char txt[64]; /* bit pattern for messages */
setkey(key);
encrypt(txt, 0); /* encode */
encrypt(txt, 1); /* decode */
}
