2018-10-28 | Add gost-yescrypt backend and tests. | Björn Esser | 1 | -1/+2 | |
gost-yescrypt uses the output from the yescrypt hashing method in place of a hmac message. Thus, the yescrypt crypto properties are superseeded by the GOST R 34.11-2012 (Streebog) hash function with a 256 bit digest. This hashing method is useful in applications that need modern password hashing methods, but require to rely on the cryptographic properties of GOST algorithms. The GOST R 34.11-2012 (Streebog) hash function was developed by the Center for Information Protection and Special Communications of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation with participation of the Open joint-stock company "Information Technologies and Communication Systems" (InfoTeCS JSC) and has been published by the IETF as RFC 6986.

* README.md: mention yescrypt * README.md: document required tools for building from a Git checkout (issue #23) * README.md: document that -flto cannot be used due to incompatibility with symbol versioning (issue #24) * README.md: use curly quotes and apostrophes; use out-of-line hyperlinks for better readability as plain text * AUTHORS: say that the sunmd5 hash module is a clean-room reimplementation to avoid the CDDL * THANKS: move prior contributor credits here from README; alphabetize; mention Dmitry Levin, Alec Muffett, and Colin Percival * crypt_gensalt.3: document errno codes that can occur when obtaining random bytes from the operating system fails | |||||
