+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions encrypt and decrypt 64-bit messages.
+The
+.BR setkey ()
+function sets the key used by
+.BR encrypt ().
+The
+.I key
+argument used here is an array of 64 bytes, each of which has
+numerical value 1 or 0.
+The bytes key[n] where n=8*i-1 are ignored,
+so that the effective key length is 56 bits.
+.P
+The
+.BR encrypt ()
+function modifies the passed buffer, encoding if
+.I edflag
+is 0, and decoding if 1 is being passed.
+Like the
+.I key
+argument, also
+.I block
+is a bit vector representation of the actual value that is encoded.
+The result is returned in that same vector.
+.P
+These two functions are not reentrant, that is, the key data is
+kept in static storage.
+The functions
+.BR setkey_r ()
+and
+.BR encrypt_r ()
+are the reentrant versions.
+They use the following
+structure to hold the key data:
+.P
+.in +4n
+.EX
+struct crypt_data {
+ char keysched[16 * 8];
+ char sb0[32768];
+ char sb1[32768];
+ char sb2[32768];
+ char sb3[32768];
+ char crypt_3_buf[14];
+ char current_salt[2];
+ long current_saltbits;
+ int direction;
+ int initialized;
+};
+.EE
+.in
+.P
+Before calling
+.BR setkey_r ()
+set
+.I data\->initialized
+to zero.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+These functions do not return any value.
+.SH ERRORS
+Set
+.I errno
+to zero before calling the above functions.
+On success,
+.I errno
+is unchanged.
+.TP
+.B ENOSYS
+The function is not provided.
+(For example because of former USA export restrictions.)

+.SH HISTORY
+Removed in glibc 2.28.
+.P
+Because they employ the DES block cipher,
+which is no longer considered secure,
+these functions were removed from glibc.
+Applications should switch to a modern cryptography library, such as
+.BR libgcrypt .
+.TP
+.BR encrypt ()

+POSIX.1-2001, SUS, SVr4.

+.BR crypt (3).
+.SS Features in glibc
+In glibc 2.2, these functions use the DES algorithm.
