This module provides direct access to all HACL* implementations

type bytes = SharedDefs.CBytes.t

bytes is ultimately an alias for Stdlib.Bytes.t, the type of buffers currently used throughout the library

AEAD

Chacha20-Poly1305

Different implementations of Chacha20-Poly1305. A multiplexing interface is also available.

Portable C implementation of Chacha20-Poly1305 that runs on any 32-bit platform

128-bit vectorized C implementation of Chacha20-Poly1305 that runs on platforms with 128-bit vector support

ECDH, EdDSA, and ECDSA

Curve25519

Different implementations of ECDH using Curve25519. A multiplexing interface is also available.

Portable C implementation that is optimized for use on 64-bit platforms that support 128-bit arithmetic, will still compile and execute on 32-bit platforms
