[openssl-dev] Integrate EVP Cipher into OpenSSL cli Speed Test

Thanks! The moment after I sent that original email I realized in my infinite wisdom that I originally hard coded the NID value in my EVP implementation to get some testing to work. I then never went back and changed it to the define value...

Regardless, thank you for the help.

Look at some of the changes to pull in Poly1305 and SipHash in to EVP:

Hello,

I successfully managed to integrate an encryption cipher into the EVP and has been

tested to work and now I'd like to get some speed tests of the cipher using openssl's

integrated speed test via the command line with the "-evp" flag.

What I've done so far to try and integrate it into openssl's speed test....

1) Confirmed EVP_mycipher() works

2) Noticed ./apps/speed.c was calling:

         case OPT_EVP:

                         evp_cipher = EVP_get_cipherbyname(opt_arg());

3) Then modified ./crypto/objects/objects.txt to include the necessary defines

         # Mycipher
                       : MYCIPHER             : mycipher

4) Edited crypto/evp/c_allc.c to include my cipher in the loading of all ciphers

EVP_add_cipher(EVP_mycipher());
EVP_add_cipher_alias(SN_mycipher, "mycipher");

5) Ran a make update then make and saw all necessary defines were generated

However, the speed test cannot find my cipher because EVP_get_cipherbyname()
returns NULL.

Am I missing a step here or did I mis-configure something?

It seems as if there's something to edit to tie the NID/SN/LN_mycipher to the algorithm.

Any help is much appreciated!
