GFGetSize

Gets the size of the IppsGFSpec_8u context in bytes.

Syntax

IppStatus ippsGFGetSize_8u(int feBitSize, int* pSize);

Parameters

feBitSize	Size of the field element (in bits).
pSize	Pointer to the size of the context (in bytes).

Description

This function is declared in the ippdi.h file. The function computes the size of the buffer to be allocated by the application and used in future as the context of the finite field GF(2^feBitzise). This context has type IppsGFSpec_8u and is necessary for each operation over the finite field.

Return Values

ippStsNoErr	Indicates no error. Any other value indicates an error or warning.
ippStsNullPtrErr	Indicates an error condition if any of the specified pointers is NULL.
ippStsRangeErr	Indicates an error condition if the value of the parameter feBitSize is less than 1 or greater than 8.
