- Use an enum of all field names instead of string literals
- Create a struct type with all fields optional instead of relying on
anonymous struct literals
This should provide better type inference, compile errors, and a
(subjectively) cleaner API.
Avoids a compile error from start.zig:
/home/kivikakk/zig/build/lib/zig/std/start.zig:265:28: error:
expected type 'u8', found 'i8'
return result;
^
/home/kivikakk/zig/build/lib/zig/std/start.zig:265:28: note:
unsigned 8-bit int cannot represent all possible signed 8-bit
values
return result;
- 1MiB objects on the stack doesn't play well with wasmtime.
Reduce these to 512KiB so that the webassembly benchmarks can run.
- Pass expected results to a blackBox() function. Without this, in
release-fast mode, the compiler could detected unused return values,
and would produce results that didn't make sense for siphash.
- Add AEAD constructions to the benchmarks.
- Inline chacha20Core() makes it 4 times faster.
- benchmarkSignatures() -> benchmarkSignature() for consistency.
* move SPU code from std to self hosted compiler
* change std lib comments to be descriptive rather than prescriptive
* avoid usingnamespace
* fix case style of error codes
* remove duplication of producer_string
* generalize handling of less than 64 bit arch pointers
* clean up SPU II related test harness code
This makes the `cache_hash` hash function easier to replace.
BLAKE3 would be a natural fit for hashing large files, but:
- second preimage resistance is not necessary for the cache_hash use cases
- our BLAKE3 implementation is currently very slow
Switch to SipHash128, which gives us an immediate speed boost.
* moved bpf syscall, added some bpf instructions and tests
* had to move bpf out of bits so that a freestanding target could import it
* removed line
* fixed imports
The `entry_point_command` is a replacement for `thread_command`, and
is used for main executables to specify the location of `main()`
entry point.

SipHash *is* a cryptographic function, with a 128-bit security level.
However, it is not a regular hash function: a secret key is required,
and knowledge of that key allows collisions to be quickly computed offline.
SipHash is therefore more suitable to be used as a MAC.
The same API as other MACs was implemented in addition to functions directly
returning an integer.
The benchmarks have been updated accordingly.
No changes to the SipHash implementation itself.
