Dependencies
This library is a standalone C-language code.
Dependencies:
- The Google Test C++ library to perform unit tests.
- A C++ compiler is needed to compile the test program.
- The OpenSSL library for compiling the performance benchmark comparison.
Compilation
After cloning this project into your computer youcan perform either method to obtain the libraries and binaries.
$ git clone https://github.com/armfazh/flo-shani-aesni
Method 1:
This method uses CMake tool for compilation.
$ cd flo-shani-aesni
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
- Then, configure the compilation:
$ CC=gcc CXX=g++ cmake ..
- You are free to choose your favorite compiler. After that, you must compile using:
$ make
- If everthing goes well, your will have a folder called
bin with the following files:
$ ls bin
bench_aegis
bench_aes
bench_sha256
Method 2:
This method uses classic Make tool for compilation:
$ cd flo-shani-aesni
$ make
- If everthing goes well, your will have a folder called
bin with the following files:
$ ls bin
bench_aegis
bench_aes
bench_sha256
Running benchmark programs
- To run the benchmark of the SHA256 hashing function, execute:
$ bin/bench_sha256
Then, program will show you a table comparing the running time of the hash functions, for example:
$ bin/bench_sha256
