Which APIs could replace those deprecated ones in ipp-crypto? #74

Closed xiaonan-INTC closed 7 months ago

xiaonan-INTC commented 7 months ago

Dear ipp-crypto developers,

As a user of ipp-crypto, I saw many APIs in ipp-crypto/include/ippcp.h are marked as "IPP_DEPRECATED()", just want to know what does it mean, not recommended, will be deleted, or others? And which APIs could replace those deprecated ones if needed?

Below are what I am using and marked as "IPP_DEPRECATED()": ECC point related: ippsECCPPointGetSize ippsECCPPointInit ippsECCPGetPoint

ECC key related: ippsECCPPublicKey ippsECCPGenKeyPair ippsECCPSetKeyPair

ECC SM2 creation/signing/verification: ippsECCPGetSizeStdSM2 ippsECCPInitStdSM2 ippsECCPSetStdSM2 ippsECCPSignSM2 ippsECCPVerifySM2

SM3 message digest: ippsSM3GetSize ippsSM3Init ippsSM3Update ippsSM3GetTag ippsSM3Final

Hi @xiaonan-INTC,

Thank you for the question. The list of deprecated functions (and suggested alternatives) you can find here https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/ipp-crypto/developer-guide-reference/2021-10/removed-functions.html

Deprecation means that these functions will be removed in some future releases of IPP Cryptography and we highly recommend to switch customers' applications to the suggested alternatives

Please let us know if you have any more questions
