Self-contained C11 SHA-2 implementation.

Features: * Self-contained (no external dependencies) * C11 only (platform-agnostic) * MIT-licensed * Includes test vectors (via make test)

Includes implementations of the following: * SHA-224 * SHA-256 * SHA-384 * SHA-512 * HMAC-SHA-256 * HMAC-SHA-512

Usage

See tests.c for usage.

Use make test to run the test vectors.

Partially unrolled compression makes this implementation faster than coreutils, but slower than the assembly-optimized, architecture and family-specific OpenSSL implementation.
