Hey
            Bob,

        
 

        
I’ve
            attached a version of your document with some comments
            added.

        
 

        
Let
            me know what you think,

        
 

        
Thanks,

    Thanks Dave.RE 'Zero is always acceptable' is just missing a period.
    It relates to the value of ulIvFixedBits in the previous sentence.

    

    GMAC comments. I did not change this section, so I would prefer to
    handle any issues there separatelyfrom the AES GCM part of the spec.
    I think you did identify at least issues with the existing spec, as
    well as possible enhancements to GMAC itself. I certainly would
    entertain a proposal to independently update the GMAC portion of the
    spec.;).

Submitter's message

          This is an update to the AEAD to handle the comments from the
          previous call, namely a desire to have a way to handle
          externally generated IV's.

          

          I implemented this generally by creating a Generator Function
          parameter and defining 4 generator operations. In the future
          more could be added (like tls 1.3 if it differs from any of
          the existing generators).

          

          

          I only require the generic generator to be implemented. I also
          allow that the application can provide the fixed portion of
          the IV/nonce as well as a new parameter to specify how long
          the fixed portion is in bits.
