sha-2 Build passing

Contents

SHA-2 algorithm implementations.

At the moment, only SHA-256 is implemented.

Design criteria

Streaming API

In response to an enhancement request, a new streaming API has been created.

The following code is a silly but complete example:

struct Sha_256 sha_256;
uint8_t hash[32];
sha_256_init(&sha_256, hash);
sha_256_write(&sha_256, "ab", strlen("ab"));
sha_256_write(&sha_256, "c", strlen("c"));
sha_256_close(&sha_256);

That is the equivalent of the (of course still supported) legacy way:

uint8_t hash[32];
calc_sha_256(hash, "abc", strlen("abc"));

See header file for more information.

Since the streaming API is a generalization of the non-streaming one, the latter has been ported to the former, without measurable performance impact. However, a legacy branch has been created in order to make the legacy implementation easily available. If you can measure a significant difference between the two, please post an issue.

Notes

The Makefile is as minimal as possible. No effort was put into making it general. Its purpose is mainly to ease testing for the developer's host machine. The actual implementation is however extremely easy to include in any project, may it use GNU make or any other build tool.

Testing

The implementation has been successfully tested on an x86-64 machine under Linux as well as on a 16-bit DSP. On the x86-64 machine, all the available NIST test vectors where successfully tested (SHA-256 examples and SHA-2 Additional examples, plus a few others).

In particular:
