bab_rs 0.5.0

An implementation of the Bab family of hash functions, and its WILLIAM3 instantiation.
Documentation
//! The [Bab](https://worm-blossom.github.io/bab/) family of hash functions, generically: you determine details such as digest sizes and hash computation through explicit parameters.
//!
//! We provide three different styles of APIs:
//!
//! - [`batch_hash`] is a simple function that takes a slice of bytes and hashes it,
//! - [`BabHasher::new`] is the entrypoint for stateful hashing analogous to [`std::hash`], and
//! - the [`storage`] module provides the most sophisticated APIs, with support for [verified streaming](https://worm-blossom.github.io/bab/#streaming_verification).
//!
//! Most functionality in this module requires a [`BabInstantiation`] to make concrete the [generic parameters](https://worm-blossom.github.io/bab/#parameters) of Bab.

/// A convenient type alias for the labels of the Merkle tree used by Bab.
pub type Label<const WIDTH: usize> = [u8; WIDTH];

/// A convenient type alias for a Bab chunk of data.
pub type Chunk<const CHUNK_SIZE: usize> = [u8; CHUNK_SIZE];

/// An instantiation of the `hash_chunk` spec parameter, with immutable access to a value of type `HashChunkContext`.
/// The computed tree node label must be written into the final argument.
pub type HashChunk<const WIDTH: usize, HashChunkContext> =
    fn(&[u8], bool, &HashChunkContext, &mut [u8; WIDTH]);

/// An instantiation of the `hash_inner` spec parameter, with immutable access to a value of type `HashInnerContext`.
/// The computed tree node label must be written into the final argument.
pub type HashInner<const WIDTH: usize, HashInnerContext> =
    fn(&[u8; WIDTH], &[u8; WIDTH], u64, bool, &HashInnerContext, &mut [u8; WIDTH]);
