37/*
38 * This implementation should never be optimized out by the compiler
39 *
40 * This implementation for mbedtls_platform_zeroize() was inspired from Colin
41 * Percival's blog article at:
42 *
43 * http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2014-09-04-how-to-zero-a-buffer.html
44 *
45 * It uses a volatile function pointer to the standard memset(). Because the
46 * pointer is volatile the compiler expects it to change at
47 * any time and will not optimize out the call that could potentially perform
48 * other operations on the input buffer instead of just setting it to 0.
49 * Nevertheless, as pointed out by davidtgoldblatt on Hacker News
50 * (refer to http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2014-09-05-erratum.html for
51 * details), optimizations of the following form are still possible:
52 *
53 * if( memset_func != memset )
54 * memset_func( buf, 0, len );
55 *
56 * Note that it is extremely difficult to guarantee that
57 * mbedtls_platform_zeroize() will not be optimized out by aggressive compilers
58 * in a portable way. For this reason, Mbed TLS also provides the configuration
59 * option MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_ZEROIZE_ALT, which allows users to configure
60 * mbedtls_platform_zeroize() to use a suitable implementation for their
61 * platform and needs.
