size_t *  olen,
const unsigned char *  tag,
size_t  tag_len 
)

The generic autenticated decryption (AEAD) function.

Parameters
ctxThe generic cipher context.
ivThe IV to use, or NONCE_COUNTER for CTR-mode ciphers.
iv_lenThe IV length for ciphers with variable-size IV. This parameter is discarded by ciphers with fixed-size IV.
adThe additional data to be authenticated.
ad_lenThe length of ad.
inputThe buffer holding the input data.
ilenThe length of the input data.
outputThe buffer for the output data. Must be able to hold at least ilen.
olenThe length of the output data, to be updated with the actual number of Bytes written.
tagThe buffer holding the authentication tag.
tag_lenThe length of the authentication tag.
Returns
0 on success, or MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_BAD_INPUT_DATA, or MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_AUTH_FAILED if data is not authentic, or a cipher-specific error code on failure for any other reason.
Note
If the data is not authentic, then the output buffer is zeroed out to prevent the unauthentic plaintext being used, making this interface safer.

tag_lenThe length of the tag to check.
Returns
0 on success, or a specific error code on failure.

The generic cipher update function. It encrypts or decrypts using the given cipher context. Writes as many block-sized blocks of data as possible to output. Any data that cannot be written immediately is either added to the next block, or flushed when mbedtls_cipher_finish() is called. Exception: For MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB, expects a single block in size. For example, 16 Bytes for AES.

Parameters
ctxThe generic cipher context.
inputThe buffer holding the input data.
ilenThe length of the input data.
outputThe buffer for the output data. Must be able to hold at least ilen + block_size. Must not be the same buffer as input.
olenThe length of the output data, to be updated with the actual number of Bytes written.
Returns
0 on success, MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_BAD_INPUT_DATA if parameter verification fails, MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE on an unsupported mode for a cipher, or a cipher-specific error code.
Note
If the underlying cipher is GCM, all calls to this function, except the last one before mbedtls_cipher_finish(). Must have ilen as a multiple of the block_size.
