<p>Hello,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I successfully managed to integrate an encryption cipher into the EVP and has been
<br>
</p>
<p>tested to work and now I'd like to get some speed tests of the cipher using openssl's
<br>
</p>
<p>integrated speed test via the command line with the "-evp" flag.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>What I've done so far to try and integrate it into openssl's speed test....</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>1) Confirmed EVP_mycipher() works</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>2) Noticed ./apps/speed.c was calling:</p>
<p> <span class="pl-k">case</span> OPT_EVP: <br>
</p>
<div> evp_cipher = <span class="pl-c1">EVP_get_cipherbyname</span>(<span class="pl-c1">opt_arg</span>());<br>
<br>
3) Then modified ./crypto/objects/objects.txt to include the necessary defines<br>
<div> # Mycipher<br>
!Alias myc 1<br>
!Cname myc<br>
myc 1 : MYCIPHER : mycipher<br>
<br>
4) Ran a make update then make and saw all necessary defines were generated<br>
<br>
However, the speed test cannot find my cipher because <span class="pl-c1">EVP_get_cipherbyname</span>()<br>
returns NULL. But... in a separate test.c file when I use<span class="pl-c1"> EVP_get_cipherbynid</span>()
<br>
using mycipher's NID value it finds it.<br>
<br>
Any idea why the EVP is able to find my cipher via NID but not by name?<br>
<br>
Any help is much appreciated!<br>
