.Sh DESCRIPTION
RC2 is a block cipher operating on blocks of
.Dv RC2_BLOCK No = 8
bytes, equivalent to 64 bits, using a variable key length
with an additional parameter called
.Dq effective key bits
or
.Dq effective key length .
The maximum effective key length is 1024 bits.
.Pp
If using RC2 cannot be avoided, it is recommended that application
programs use the
.Xr EVP_rc2_cbc 3
family of functions instead of the functions documented in the present
manual page, to ease later migration to less outdated encryption algorithms.
.Pp
.Fn RC2_set_key
expands the first
.Fa len
bytes of
.Fa user_key
into the
.Vt RC2_KEY
structure
.Pf * Fa expanded_key .
The storage for the expanded key has to be provided by the calling code.
If the
.Fa len
argument exceeds 128, only the first 128 bytes are used.
.Pp
Optionally, if the
.Fa effective_bits
argument is positive and less than 1024, the effective key length of
.Pf * Fa expanded_key
is reduced to
.Fa effective_bits .
Reducing the effective key length is not cryptographically useful.
This option was originally designed to conform to US export regulations
valid at the time, which were designed to allow the US government
to spy on foreign encrypted communications.
Unless interoperability requires otherwise, setting
.Fa effective_bits
to 1024 is recommended.
.Pp
.Fn RC2_encrypt
and
.Fn RC2_decrypt
interpret
.Fa data
as an array of two 32 bit integers and encrypt or decrypt
that single block in place, respectively, using the
.Fa expanded_key .
.Pp
The remaining functions encode or decode
.Fa length
bytes starting at
.Fa in
to
.Fa length
bytes starting at
.Fa out
in various modes of operation using the
.Fa expanded_key .
Both arrays need to be long enough to hold
.Fa length
bytes rounded up to the next multiple of 8.
The
.Fa iv
argument points to an array of 8 bytes used as the initialization vector.
If the
.Fa encrypt
argument is
.Dv RC2_ENCRYPT
or another non-zero value, encryption is performed;
if it is
.Dv RC2_DECRYPT No = 0 ,
decryption is performed.
.Pp
.Fn RC2_cbc_encrypt
operates in cipher block chaining mode.
.Pp
.Fn RC2_ecb_encrypt
encodes or decodes eight bytes at
.Fa in
to
eight bytes at
.Fa out
in electronic codebook mode.
.Pp
.Fn RC2_cfb64_encrypt
and
.Fn RC2_ofb64_encrypt
operate in cipher feedback mode and output feedback mode, respectively,
with 64 bit blocks.
The number of bytes used from the last 8 byte block is kept track of in
.Pf * Fa num .
