Just to denote that alternative GCM implementation is available now,
see http://cvs.openssl.org/rlog?f=openssl/crypto/modes/gcm128.c. It's
initial version and interface is still subject to change. Things that
won't change is that the module in question is cipher agnostic (modulo
block-size), doesn't rely on EVP (i.e. will be free from circular
dependency when deployed from EVP) and is more aggressively optimized.
Latter refers to the fact that unlike code proposed by IBM it uses full
machine word logical operations instead of byte-oriented ones. As for
multiplication itself it currently opts for 4-bit multiplication. 1-bit
and 8-bit subroutines are available and tested. A.
