I'm now leaning towards using size_t also for all function arguments which are key sizes. There should be no performance penalty in most cases, and very small penalty also when arguments are passed on the stack. And it may reduce warnings about truncation to smaller type if one passes, e.g, the output of strlen. I'll stick to unsigned in struct nettle_cipher and some of the internal functions, though. I created the branch size_t-changes, now available also in the public repo. I think I have converted everything except the unfinished openpgp code. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller.
