A pure rust implementation of the gimli cipher

Status

Hash and cipher working with test vectors.
Test vectors taken from both the paper on https://gimli.cr.yp.to
and
https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/lightweight-cryptography/round-2-candidates The cipher test vectors were pull from the LWC_AEAD_KAT_256_128.txt file in the gimli archive.

Test with

cargo test

Install

You can install gimli directly via cargo with

cargo install --git https://github.com/darakian/gimli gimli_rs

You will then have the tool gimli_rs in your path.

References

The gimli cipher is described here https://gimli.cr.yp.to/ by Daniel J. Bernstein, et al. This implementation began as a port of the reference C code and aims to be a pure rust version of the spec.
