+/**
+ * Error code layout.
+ *
+ * Currently we try to keep all error codes within the negative space of 16
+ * bytes signed integers to support all platforms (-0x0000 - -0x8000). In
+ * addition we'd like to give two layers of information on the error if
+ * possible.
+ *
+ * For that purpose the error codes are segmented in the following manner:
+ *
+ * 16 bit error code bit-segmentation
+ *
+ * 1 bit - Intentionally not used
+ * 3 bits - High level module ID
+ * 5 bits - Module-dependent error code
+ * 6 bits - Low level module errors
+ * 1 bit - Intentionally not used
+ *
+ * Low-level module errors (0x007E-0x0002)
+ *
+ * Module Nr Codes assigned
+ * MPI 7 0x0002-0x0010
+ * GCM 2 0x0012-0x0014
+ * AES 2 0x0020-0x0022
+ * CAMELLIA 2 0x0024-0x0026
+ * XTEA 1 0x0028-0x0028
+ * BASE64 2 0x002A-0x002C
+ * PADLOCK 1 0x0030-0x0030
+ * DES 1 0x0032-0x0032
+ * CTR_DBRG 3 0x0034-0x003A
+ * ENTROPY 3 0x003C-0x0040
+ * NET 11 0x0042-0x0056
+ * ASN1 7 0x0060-0x006C
+ * MD2 1 0x0070-0x0070
+ * MD4 1 0x0072-0x0072
+ * MD5 1 0x0074-0x0074
+ * SHA1 1 0x0076-0x0076
+ * SHA2 1 0x0078-0x0078
+ * SHA4 1 0x007A-0x007A
+ *
+ * High-level module nr (3 bits - 0x1...-0x8...)
+ * Name ID Nr of Errors
+ * PEM 1 8
+ * X509 2 21
+ * DHM 3 6
+ * RSA 4 9
+ * MD 5 4
+ * CIPHER 6 5
+ * SSL 7 30
+ *
+ * Module dependent error code (5 bits 0x.08.-0x.F8.)
