SipHash (Go)

Go implementation of SipHash-2-4, a fast short-input PRF created by Jean-Philippe Aumasson and Daniel J. Bernstein (http://131002.net/siphash/).

A stable version of this package with commercial support is available through StableLib: https://stablelib.com/v1/crypto/siphash/

Installation

$ go get github.com/dchest/siphash

Supported Go 1.1 and later.

Usage

import "github.com/dchest/siphash"

There are two ways to use this package. The slower one is to use the standard hash.Hash64 interface:

h := siphash.New(key)
h.Write([]byte("Hello"))
sum := h.Sum(nil) // returns 8-byte []byte

or

sum64 := h.Sum64() // returns uint64

The faster one is to use Hash() function, which takes two uint64 parts of 16-byte key and a byte slice, and returns uint64 hash:

sum64 := siphash.Hash(key0, key1, []byte("Hello"))

The keys and output are little-endian.

Functions

func Hash(k0, k1 uint64, p []byte) uint64

Hash returns the 64-bit SipHash-2-4 of the given byte slice with two 64-bit parts of 128-bit key: k0 and k1.

func Hash128(k0, k1 uint64, p []byte) (uint64, uint64)

Hash128 returns the 128-bit SipHash-2-4 of the given byte slice with two 64-bit parts of 128-bit key: k0 and k1.

Note that 128-bit SipHash is considered experimental by SipHash authors at this time.

func New(key []byte) hash.Hash64

New returns a new hash.Hash64 computing SipHash-2-4 with 16-byte key.

func New128(key []byte) hash.Hash

New128 returns a new hash.Hash computing SipHash-2-4 with 16-byte key and 16-byte output.

Note that 16-byte output is considered experimental by SipHash authors at this time.
