Commit afbd3e60f6 effectively treated a symptom and not the underlying problem. The problem was linkers on 32-bit systems ignore CRYPTOPP_ALIGN_DAT(16) passed down by the compiler and align to 8-bytes or less. We have to use Wei's original code in some places. It is not a bad thing, but the bit fiddling is something we would like to contain a little more by depending more on language or platform features.
This commit keeps the original changes which improve partial specializations; but fixes 32-bit linker behavior by effectively reverting afbd3e60f6 and e054d36dc8. We also add more comments so the next person has understands why things are done they way they are.
Currently the CRYPTOPP_BOOL_XXX macros set the macro value to 0 or 1. If we remove setting the 0 value (the #else part of the expression), then the self tests speed up by about 0.3 seconds. I can't explain it, but I have observed it repeatedly.
This check-in prepares for the removal in Upstream master
- added AuthenticatedSymmetricCipher interface class and Filter wrappers
- added CCM, GCM (with SSE2 assembly), CMAC, and SEED
- improved AES speed on x86 and x64
- removed WORD64_AVAILABLE; compiler 64-bit int support is now required
