Apply 32-bit XOR mask (considered as four octets in big-endian order) to ByteString.

>>> xor32StrictByteString 0x37fa213d "\x7f\x9f\x4d\x51\x58"
"Hello"

In other words, the 32-bit word 0x37fa213d is taken as the infinite series of octets (cycle [0x37,0xfa,0x21,0x3d]) and xored with the respective octets from the input ByteString.

The xor laws give rise to the following laws:

xor32StrictByteString m (xor32StrictByteString m x) == x

xor32StrictByteString 0 x == x

xor32StrictByteString m (xor32StrictByteString n x) == xor32StrictByteString (m `xor` n) x

This function is semantically equivalent to the (less efficient) implementation shown below

xor32StrictByteString'ref :: Word32 -> BS.ByteString -> BS.ByteString
xor32StrictByteString'ref 0    = id
xor32StrictByteString'ref msk0 = snd . BS.mapAccumL go msk0
  where
    go :: Word32 -> Word8 -> (Word32,Word8)
    go msk b = let b'   = fromIntegral (msk' .&. 0xff) `xor` b
                   msk' = rotateL msk 8
               in (msk',b')

The xor32StrictByteString implementation is about 6-7 times faster than the naive implementation above.

Convenience version of xor32StrictByteString which also returns the rotated XOR-mask useful for chained masking.

>>> xor32StrictByteString' 0x37fa213d "\x7f\x9f\x4d\x51\x58"
(0xfa213d37,"Hello")

Variant of xor32StrictByteString for masking lazy ByteStrings.

>>> xor32LazyByteString 0x37fa213d "\x7f\x9f\x4d\x51\x58"
"Hello"

Apply 32-bit XOR mask (considered as four octets in big-endian order) to ShortByteString. See also xor32StrictByteString.

>>> xor32ShortByteString 0x37fa213d "\x7f\x9f\x4d\x51\x58"
"Hello"

Apply 32-bit XOR mask (considered as four octets in big-endian order) to memory region expressed as base-pointer and size. The returned value is the input mask rotated by the word-size remained of the memory region size (useful for chained xor-masking of multiple memory-fragments).

Apply 8-bit XOR mask to each octet of a ByteString.

>>> xor8StrictByteString 0x20 "Hello"
"hELLO"

This function is a faster implementation of the semantically equivalent function shown below:

xor8StrictByteString'ref :: Word8 -> BS.ByteString -> BS.ByteString
xor8StrictByteString'ref 0    = id
xor8StrictByteString'ref msk0 = BS.map (xor msk0)

Apply 8-bit XOR mask to each octet of a lazy ByteString.
