On the reference code

Mosquito has an internal state and this is kept in a structure ECRYPT_ctx specified in the file "ecrypt-ssyn.h"
When a new instance of this structure is created, one shall perform an initialization by calling the function "void init_ctx(ECRYPT_ctx *s)".

Correction: 

In the submission version, some bits of the internal state were never initialized. This has now been corrected in "ecrypt-Mosquito_cipher.c" in the function "void init_ctx(ECRYPT_ctx *s)"
New testvalues are provided in the file "testvalues_2.txt

On the representation of testvalues

Mosquito operates on single bits. Still, we use a byte-oriented notation in these files. The bit that appears first is the bit with the lowest (time)-index. 
- keys have a length of 12 bytes,
- IV values have a length of 13 bytes,
- plaintext and ciphertext both have a length of 16 bytes.

On the range of testvalues

The file "testvalues.txt" contains:
- 64 ciphertext values corresponding to 4 plaintext values encrypted using 4 different key values and using 4 different IV values.
- 64 plaintext values corresponding to 4 ciphertext values encrypted using 4 different key values and using 4 different IV values.
The contents of this file can be regenerated using the main program in "main.c" with as input the file "testval_in.txt".

The key values:
