Find a faster way to compute CMAC subkeys

The following code is part of CMAC subkeys computation implementing left bit shift of a 16-byte array.

Code: Select all

private static final void rotateLeft(final byte[] output, final byte[] input) {
         short carry = 0;
         short i = (short) 16;
         do {
             --i;
             carry = (short)((input[i] << 1) | carry);
             output[i] = (byte)carry;
             carry = (short)((carry >> 8) & 1);
         } while (i > 0);
}


Do anyone know a faster way to compute CMAC subkeys, as fast as possible? Thanks a lot.

Maybe you can try hard coding by loop unrolling . Remember to creat RAM byte array.

Code: Select all

output[0] = (byte)((byte)(input[0] << 1) | (byte)((input[1] >> 7) & 1));
output[1] = (byte)((byte)(input[1] << 1) | (byte)((input[2] >> 7) & 1));
output[2] = (byte)((byte)(input[2] << 1) | (byte)((input[3] >> 7) & 1));
output[3] = (byte)((byte)(input[3] << 1) | (byte)((input[4] >> 7) & 1));
output[4] = (byte)((byte)(input[4] << 1) | (byte)((input[5] >> 7) & 1));
output[5] = (byte)((byte)(input[5] << 1) | (byte)((input[6] >> 7) & 1));
output[6] = (byte)((byte)(input[6] << 1) | (byte)((input[7] >> 7) & 1));
output[7] = (byte)((byte)(input[7] << 1) | (byte)((input[8] >> 7) & 1));
output[8] = (byte)((byte)(input[8] << 1) | (byte)((input[9] >> 7) & 1));
output[9] = (byte)((byte)(input[9] << 1) | (byte)((input[10] >> 7) & 1));
output[10] = (byte)((byte)(input[10] << 1) | (byte)((input[11] >> 7) & 1));
output[11] = (byte)((byte)(input[11] << 1) | (byte)((input[12] >> 7) & 1));
output[12] = (byte)((byte)(input[12] << 1) | (byte)((input[13] >> 7) & 1));
output[13] = (byte)((byte)(input[13] << 1) | (byte)((input[14] >> 7) & 1));
output[14] = (byte)((byte)(input[14] << 1) | (byte)((input[15] >> 7) & 1));
output[15] = (byte)(input[15] << 1);

Firstly,thank you for your suggestion. But it's not a good way to solve this issue,doesn't it?
