GFPExp

Raises an element of the GF(p) field to a non-negative power.

Syntax

IppStatus ippsGFPExp(const IppsGFPElement *pGFpElementA, const IppsGFPElement *pGFpElementE, IppsGFPElement *pGFpElementR, IppsGFPState *pGFp);

Parameters

pGFpElementA

Pointer to the context of the GF(p) element that represents the base of the exponentiation.

pGFpElementE

Pointer to the context of the GF(p) element that represents the exponent.

pGFpElementR

Pointer to the context of the resulting element of the GF(p) field.

pGFp

Pointer to the context of the GF(p) field.

Description

This function is declared in the ippcp.h file. The function raises the element of the GF(p) field to the given non-negative power. The following pseudocode represents this operation: R = AE.

Return Values

ippStsNoErr

Indicates no error. Any other value indicates an error or warning.

ippStsNullPtrErr

Indicates an error condition if any of the specified pointers is NULL.

ippContextMatchErr

Indicates an error condition if any of the IppsGFPState or IppsGFPElement context parameters does not match the operation.
