10 * XCTR mode is a blockcipher mode of operation used to implement HCTR2. XCTR is
11 * closely related to the CTR mode of operation; the main difference is that CTR
12 * generates the keystream using E(CTR + IV) whereas XCTR generates the
13 * keystream using E(CTR ^ IV). This allows implementations to avoid dealing
14 * with multi-limb integers (as is required in CTR mode). XCTR is also specified
15 * using little-endian arithmetic which makes it slightly faster on LE machines.
17 * See the HCTR2 paper for more details:
18 * Length-preserving encryption with HCTR2
