- a second consumer (rv2 9 TLS phase A) reshaped the forks since the draft
- locked: BOTH AES-GCM (128/256, TLS-mandatory per RFC 8446) AND
ChaCha20-Poly1305 (RFC 8439, easy constant-time, cookie default)
- AES constant-time via AES-NI/ARMv8 hardware + bitsliced software fallback
(compiler intrinsics, zero external dep)
- caller-supplied nonce (TLS builds its own per-record nonce); random-nonce
is a cookie WRAPPER (phase D) not the primitive. shape:
seal(key,nonce,aad,pt)->Bytes / open->?Bytes; AES variant by key length
- raw key + length check; hand-rolled (matches rv2 9); ids from 111
- phases A ChaCha -> B hardware AES-GCM -> C software AES -> D cookie wrapper
-> E gate (RFC 8439 + NIST GCM vectors, ASan, reference cross-check)
- risk/test: constant-time mandatory, KAT-gated, reused-nonce documented
- retires the stale "TLS proxy-terminated" OOS line (rv2 9 overturned it)
(cherry picked from commit c8a5a31c39a5d14952056cd0af1b8c1e42d4ed2d)
