Detailed Description

BLAKE2b hash algorithm.

BLAKE2b is a variation on the ChaCha stream cipher, designed for hashing, with a 512-bit hash output. It is intended as a high performance replacement for SHA512 for when speed is critical but exact SHA512 compatibility is not.

This class supports two types of keyed hash. The BLAKE2 keyed hash and traditional HMAC. The BLAKE2 keyed hash is recommended unless there is some higher-level application need to be compatible with the HMAC construction. The keyed hash is computed as follows:

BLAKE2b blake;
blake.reset(key, sizeof(key), outputLength);
blake.update(data1, sizeof(data1));
blake.update(data2, sizeof(data2));
...
blake.update(dataN, sizeof(dataN));
blake.finalize(hash, outputLength);

The HMAC is computed as follows (the output length is always 64):

BLAKE2b blake;
blake.resetHMAC(key, sizeof(key));
blake.update(data1, sizeof(data1));
blake.update(data2, sizeof(data2));
...
blake.update(dataN, sizeof(dataN));
blake.finalizeHMAC(key, sizeof(key), hash, 32);

Member Function Documentation

◆ blockSize()

size_t BLAKE2b::blockSize ( ) const

virtual

Size of the internal block used by the hash algorithm.

See also: update(), hashSize()

Implements Hash.

Definition at line 104 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ clear()

void BLAKE2b::clear ( )

virtual

Clears the hash state, removing all sensitive data, and then resets the hash ready for a new hashing process.

See also: reset()

Implements Hash.

Definition at line 243 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ finalize()

void BLAKE2b::finalize	(	void *	hash,
		size_t	len
	)

virtual

Finalizes the hashing process and returns the hash.

Parameters

hash	The buffer to return the hash value in.
len	The length of the hash buffer, normally hashSize().

If len is less than hashSize(), then the hash value will be truncated to the first len bytes. If len is greater than hashSize(), then the remaining bytes will left unchanged.

If finalize() is called again, then the returned hash value is undefined. Call reset() first to start a new hashing process.

See also: reset(), update(), finalizeHMAC()

Implements Hash.

Definition at line 227 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ finalizeHMAC()

void BLAKE2b::finalizeHMAC	(	const void *	key,
		size_t	keyLen,
		void *	hash,
		size_t	hashLen
	)

virtual

Finalizes the HMAC hashing process and returns the hash.

Parameters

key	Points to the HMAC key for the hashing process. The contents of this array must be identical to the value passed to resetHMAC().
keyLen	Size of the HMAC key in bytes.
hash	The buffer to return the hash value in.
hashLen	The length of the hash buffer, normally hashSize().

See also: resetHMAC(), finalize()

Implements Hash.

Definition at line 256 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ hashSize()

size_t BLAKE2b::hashSize ( ) const

virtual

Size of the hash result from finalize().

See also: finalize(), blockSize()

Implements Hash.

Definition at line 99 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ reset() [1/3]

void BLAKE2b::reset ( )

virtual

Resets the hash ready for a new hashing process.

See also: update(), finalize(), resetHMAC()

Implements Hash.

Definition at line 119 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ reset() [2/3]

void BLAKE2b::reset	(	const void *	key,
		size_t	keyLen,
		uint8_t	outputLength = `64`
	)

Resets the hash ready for a new hashing process with a specified key and output length.

Parameters

key	Points to the key.
keyLen	The length of the key in bytes, between 0 and 64.
outputLength	The output length to use for the final hash in bytes, between 1 and 64.

If keyLen is greater than 64, then the key will be truncated to the first 64 bytes.

Definition at line 172 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ reset() [3/3]

void BLAKE2b::reset ( uint8_t outputLength )

Resets the hash ready for a new hashing process with a specified output length.

Parameters

outputLength The output length to use for the final hash in bytes, between 1 and 64.

Definition at line 141 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ resetHMAC()

void BLAKE2b::resetHMAC	(	const void *	key,
		size_t	keyLen
	)

virtual

Resets the hash ready for a new HMAC hashing process.

Parameters

key	Points to the HMAC key for the hashing process.
keyLen	Size of the HMAC key in bytes.

The following example computes a HMAC over a series of data blocks with a specific key:

hash.resetHMAC(key, sizeof(key));
hash.update(data1, sizeof(data1));
hash.update(data2, sizeof(data2));
...
hash.update(dataN, sizeof(dataN));
hash.finalizeHMAC(key, sizeof(key), hmac, sizeof(hmac));

The same key must be passed to both resetHMAC() and finalizeHMAC().

See also: finalizeHMAC(), reset()

Implements Hash.

Definition at line 249 of file BLAKE2b.cpp.

◆ update()

void BLAKE2b::update	(	const void *	data,
		size_t	len
	)

virtual

Updates the hash with more data.

Parameters

data	Data to be hashed.
len	Number of bytes of data to be hashed.

If finalize() has already been called, then the behavior of update() will be undefined. Call reset() first to start a new hashing process.
