Changes since 1.5: +7 -7 lines 

Remove useless quoting from .Fo and .Fn function names, to prevent
development of a cargo cult in case people look at existing files
for examples.  This achieves a consistent .Fo and .Fn quoting style
across the whole tree.

.Nm SipHash24_Init ,

.Nm SipHash24_End ,
.Nm SipHash24_Final ,
.Nm SipHash24
.Nd calculate SipHash24 hashes
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In crypto/siphash.h
.Ft void
.Fn SipHash24_Init "SIPHASH_CTX *ctx" "const SIPHASH_KEY *key"
.Ft void
.Fn SipHash24_Update "SIPHASH_CTX *ctx" "const void *data" "size_t len"
.Ft uint64_t
.Fn SipHash24_End "SIPHASH_CTX *ctx"
.Ft void
.Fn SipHash24_Final "void *digest" "SIPHASH_CTX *ctx"
.Ft uint64_t
.Fn SipHash24 "const SIPHASH_KEY *key" "const void *data" "size_t len"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The SipHash algorithm is a keyed hash algorithm optimised for short
inputs which produces a 64-bit digest of data.
The SipHash24 functions implement the algorithm with 2 compression
rounds and 4 finalisation rounds.
.Pp
.Fn SipHash24_Init
initialises a
.Vt SIPHASH_CTX
context
.Fa ctx
with the secret
.Fa key .
.Pp
.Fn SipHash24_Update
adds
.Fa data
of length
.Fa len
to the context
.Fa ctx .
.Pp
.Fn SipHash24_End
is called after all data has been added to
.Fa ctx
via
.Fn SipHash24_Update
and returns a message digest in the host's native endian.
.Pp
.Fn SipHash24_Final
is called after all data has been added to
.Fa ctx
via
.Fn SipHash24_Update
and stores the message digest at the address specified by the
.Fa digest
parameter.
The buffer at
.Fa digest
must be
.Dv SIPHASH_DIGEST_LENGTH
bytes long.
.Pp
.Fn SipHash24
calculates the digest of
.Fa data
of length
.Fa len
with the secret
.Fa key .
.Pp
It is recommended that the
.Vt SIPHASH_KEY
key be generated with
.Xr arc4random_buf 9 .
.Sh CONTEXT
.Fn SipHash24_Init ,
.Fn SipHash24_Update ,
.Fn SipHash24_End ,
.Fn SipHash24_Final
and
.Fn SipHash24
can be called during autoconf, from process context, or from interrupt context.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn SipHash24_End
and
.Fn SipHash24
return the 64-bit message digest in the host's native endian representation.
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr arc4random_buf 9
