gnutls_crypto_register_cipher - API function

gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t algorithm is the gnutls algorithm identifier int priority is the priority of the algorithm gnutls_cipher_init_func init A function which initializes the cipher gnutls_cipher_setkey_func setkey A function which sets the key of the cipher gnutls_cipher_setiv_func setiv A function which sets the nonce/IV of the cipher (non-AEAD) gnutls_cipher_encrypt_func encrypt A function which performs encryption (non-AEAD) gnutls_cipher_decrypt_func decrypt A function which performs decryption (non-AEAD) gnutls_cipher_deinit_func deinit A function which deinitializes the cipher

since 3.7.0 it is no longer possible to override cipher implementation

This function will register a cipher algorithm to be used by gnutls. Any algorithm registered will override the included algorithms and by convention kernel implemented algorithms have priority of 90 and CPU-assisted of 80. The algorithm with the lowest priority will be used by gnutls. In the case the registered init or setkey functions return GNUTLS_E_NEED_FALLBACK, GnuTLS will attempt to use the next in priority registered cipher. The functions which are marked as non-AEAD they are not required when registering a cipher to be used with the new AEAD API introduced in GnuTLS 3.4.0. Internally GnuTLS uses the new AEAD API.
