2015-11-01Refactor ciphertext <-> plaintext offset translation functionsJakob Unterwurzacher
Move all the intelligence into the new file address_translation.go. That the calculations were spread out too much became apparent when adding the file header. This should make the code much easier to modify in the future.
2015-11-01Add file header (on-disk-format change)Jakob Unterwurzacher
Format: [ "Version" uint16 big endian ] [ "Id" 16 random bytes ] Quoting SECURITY.md: * Every file has a header that contains a 16-byte random *file id* * Each block uses the file id and its block number as GCM *authentication data* * This means the position of the blocks is protected as well. The blocks can not be reordered or copied between different files without causing an decryption error.
