35 * Currently we try to keep all error codes within the negative space of 16
36 * bytes signed integers to support all platforms (-0x0000 - -0x8000). In
37 * addition we'd like to give two layers of information on the error if
40 * For that purpose the error codes are segmented in the following manner:
42 * 16 bit error code bit-segmentation
44 * 1 bit - Intentionally not used
45 * 3 bits - High level module ID
46 * 5 bits - Module-dependent error code
47 * 6 bits - Low level module errors
48 * 1 bit - Intentionally not used
50 * Low-level module errors (0x007E-0x0002)
52 * Module Nr Codes assigned
55 * BLOWFISH 2 0x0016-0x0018
57 * CAMELLIA 2 0x0024-0x0026
58 * XTEA 1 0x0028-0x0028
59 * BASE64 2 0x002A-0x002C
60 * PADLOCK 1 0x0030-0x0030
62 * CTR_DBRG 3 0x0034-0x003A
63 * ENTROPY 3 0x003C-0x0040
64 * NET 11 0x0042-0x0056
65 * ASN1 7 0x0060-0x006C
69 * SHA1 1 0x0076-0x0076
70 * SHA2 1 0x0078-0x0078
71 * SHA4 1 0x007A-0x007A
73 * High-level module nr (3 bits - 0x1...-0x8...)
74 * Name ID Nr of Errors
76 * PKCS#12 1 4 (Started from top)
79 * PKCS5 3 4 (Started from top)
83 * SSL 6 2 (Started from top)
86 * Module dependent error code (5 bits 0x.08.-0x.F8.)
