Most of the stuff in mpi has been taken from an old GMP library version by Torbjorn Granlund . The files cipher/rndunix.c and cipher/rndw32.c are based on those files from Cryptlib. Copyright Peter Gutmann, Paul Kendall, and Chris Wedgwood 1996-1999. The ECC code cipher/ecc.c was based on code by Sergi Blanch i Torne, sergi at calcurco dot org. The implementation of the Camellia cipher has been been taken from the original NTT provided GPL source. The CAVS testing program tests/cavs_driver.pl is not to be considered a part of libgcrypt proper. We distribute it merely for convenience.
