You will also need to export an initialization function, at least it
seems not nice to depend on the full AES initialization.
And to simplify the whole mathematics to concrete usage, the
multiplication is:
alog8[log8[x] + log8[y]]
(assuming x and y != 0, if either is 0 the result is 0 as usual)
Doing it manually without the exponential/log lookup trick is
of course possible but quite a pain.
