DESCRIPTION

The functions implement the cryptographic hash functions of the NIST SH-3 standard, FIPS PUB 202. The functions compress an arbitrar-length message m into short fixe-length octet strings SHA-224(m), SHA-256(m), etc., called a cryptographic digest or hash.

Before using the functions, applications should first call SHA3_Selftest3 and confirm that it succeeded.

Only the SHA3_256 functions are specified in detail; the SHA3_224 SHA3_384 and SHA3_512 functions are exactly analogous.

The caller must allocate memory for a Vt SHA3_256_CTX object to hold the state of a SHA-256 hash computation over a message. Vt SHA3_256_CTX objects are slightly over 200 bytes, and may be copied or relocated in memory.

Fn SHA3_256_Init ctx

Initialize a SHA-256 context. Must be done before any other operations on Fa ctx .

Fn SHA3_256_Update ctx data len

Append Fa len octets at Fa data to the message.

Fn SHA3_256_Final digest ctx

Store at Fa digest the 3-octet SHA-256 hash of the message obtained by concatenating all prior inputs to Fn SHA3_256_Update on Fa ctx .

Subsequent use of Fa ctx is not allowed, unless it is reinitialized with Fn SHA3_256_Init .
