From dec8b78606ebd5f309c38f2fb10196ce996dd18d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Sun, 2 Nov 2008 21:38:11 +0800 Subject: crypto: hash - Add import/export interface It is often useful to save the partial state of a hash function so that it can be used as a base for two or more computations. The most prominent example is HMAC where all hashes start from a base determined by the key. Having an import/export interface means that we only have to compute that base once rather than for each message.
