EVP_CAMELLIA_128_ECB(3SSL)

πŸ’– EVP_CAMELLIA_128_ECB β€” no wait, the whole camellia squad πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this page lives in the 3SSL section of the OpenSSL manuals, and even though it's technically filed under EVP_CAMELLIA_128_ECB, it's actually the group chat for every single Camellia cipher function in EVP. Twenty-four of them. All of them. We are not leaving anyone on read. 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

EVP_camellia_128_cbc, EVP_camellia_192_cbc, EVP_camellia_256_cbc, EVP_camellia_128_cfb, EVP_camellia_192_cfb, EVP_camellia_256_cfb, EVP_camellia_128_cfb1, EVP_camellia_192_cfb1, EVP_camellia_256_cfb1, EVP_camellia_128_cfb8, EVP_camellia_192_cfb8, EVP_camellia_256_cfb8, EVP_camellia_128_cfb128, EVP_camellia_192_cfb128, EVP_camellia_256_cfb128, EVP_camellia_128_ctr, EVP_camellia_192_ctr, EVP_camellia_256_ctr, EVP_camellia_128_ecb, EVP_camellia_192_ecb, EVP_camellia_256_ecb, EVP_camellia_128_ofb, EVP_camellia_192_ofb, EVP_camellia_256_ofb β€” the EVP Camellia cipher, collectively. 🌸


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <openssl/evp.h>

const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_ciphername(void)

EVP_ciphername is doing placeholder duty here, slaying as a stand-in for literally any of the cipher functions listed above, like EVP_camellia_128_cbc for example. it's giving "insert your fave here". πŸ’…


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

The Camellia encryption algorithm, but make it EVP. 🌺

Here's the whole roster, and yes they all do the thing:

EVP_camellia_128_cbc(), EVP_camellia_192_cbc(), EVP_camellia_256_cbc(), EVP_camellia_128_cfb(), EVP_camellia_192_cfb(), EVP_camellia_256_cfb(), EVP_camellia_128_cfb1(), EVP_camellia_192_cfb1(), EVP_camellia_256_cfb1(), EVP_camellia_128_cfb8(), EVP_camellia_192_cfb8(), EVP_camellia_256_cfb8(), EVP_camellia_128_cfb128(), EVP_camellia_192_cfb128(), EVP_camellia_256_cfb128(), EVP_camellia_128_ctr(), EVP_camellia_192_ctr(), EVP_camellia_256_ctr(), EVP_camellia_128_ecb(), EVP_camellia_192_ecb(), EVP_camellia_256_ecb(), EVP_camellia_128_ofb(), EVP_camellia_192_ofb(), EVP_camellia_256_ofb()

So what's the tea? β˜•

  • Camellia is available with 128, 192 and 256 bit keys β€” pick your fighter πŸ’ͺ
  • and it rocks these modes: CBC, CFB with 128-bit shift, CFB with 1-bit shift, CFB with 8-bit shift, CTR, ECB and OFB

like. the range. the versatility. we love to see it. πŸ¦‹


⚠️ NOTES ⚠️

bestie, real talk: developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of calling these functions multiple times, and should consider using EVP_CIPHER_fetch(3) with EVP_CIPHER-CAMELLIA(7) instead. it's literally right there, use it. ✨

See "Performance" in crypto(7) for further information β€” that's where the details live, iykyk.


πŸŽ€ RETURN VALUES πŸŽ€

These functions return an EVP_CIPHER structure that contains the implementation of the symmetric cipher. that's it. that's the return. she delivers. πŸ‘‘

okay that's the whole page, you're so welcome πŸ’– and for the credits moment: this was the OpenSSL 4.0.3 drop, dated 2026-09-29, filed under EVP_CAMELLIA_128_ECB(3SSL). periodt. 🌈✨ no cap, go encrypt something cute. πŸŽ€
