Here is the enhancement proposal for adding CCM cipher mode support
to JDK. For details, please refer to the following JEP:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~valeriep/8008342/jepCCM.txt
Comments or feedback welcome.
Sounds great, there is no mentioning of specific machine instructions
to speed up CCM (like PCLMULQDQ for GCM) or no relationship to the AES
intrinsic. It would really be a shame if (both) new modes cannot
benefit from typical hardware speedups. (especially when it is out of
scope for PKCS#11).
Hardware acceleration is not being addressed as part of the CCM
implementation. PCLMULQDQ is a whole different thing with other challenges.
