31 * @file skein_api.h
32 * @brief A Skein API and its functions.
33 * @{
34 *
35 * This API and the functions that implement this API simplify the usage
36 * of Skein. The design and the way to use the functions follow the openSSL
37 * design but at the same time take care of some Skein specific behaviour
38 * and possibilities.
39 *
40 * The functions enable applications to create a normal Skein hashes and
41 * message authentication codes (MAC).
42 *
43 * Using these functions is simple and straight forward:
44 *
45 * @code
46 *
47 * #include "skein_api.h"
48 *
49 * ...
50 * struct skein_ctx ctx; // a Skein hash or MAC context
51 *
52 * // prepare context, here for a Skein with a state size of 512 bits.
53 * skein_ctx_prepare(&ctx, SKEIN_512);
54 *
55 * // Initialize the context to set the requested hash length in bits
56 * // here request a output hash size of 31 bits (Skein supports variable
57 * // output sizes even very strange sizes)
58 * skein_init(&ctx, 31);
59 *
60 * // Now update Skein with any number of message bits. A function that
61 * // takes a number of bytes is also available.
62 * skein_update_bits(&ctx, message, msg_length);
63 *
64 * // Now get the result of the Skein hash. The output buffer must be
65 * // large enough to hold the request number of output bits. The application
66 * // may now extract the bits.
67 * skein_final(&ctx, result);
68 * ...
69 * @endcode
70 *
71 * An application may use @c skein_reset to reset a Skein context and use
72 * it for creation of another hash with the same Skein state size and output
73 * bit length. In this case the API implementation restores some internal
74 * internal state data and saves a full Skein initialization round.
75 *
76 * To create a MAC the application just uses @c skein_mac_init instead of
77 * @c skein_init. All other functions calls remain the same.
78 *
