C library providing BLAKE3 hash function.
|
|
|
|
BLAKE3 is a cryptographic hash function that is:
|
|
|
|
- Much faster than MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2, SHA-3, and BLAKE2.
|
|
|
|
- Secure, unlike MD5 and SHA-1. And secure against length
|
|
extension, unlike SHA-2.
|
|
|
|
- Highly parallelizable across any number of threads and
|
|
SIMD lanes, because it's a Merkle tree on the inside.
|
|
|
|
- Capable of verified streaming and incremental updates,
|
|
again because it's a Merkle tree.
|
|
|
|
- A PRF, MAC, KDF, and XOF, as well as a regular hash.
|
|
|
|
- One algorithm with no variants, which is fast on x86-64
|
|
and also on smaller architectures.
