Detailled informations

Folder: Blastproof/commoncrypto

It's build using VyBuild, as both a static and shared library. The provided build file doesn't allow yet for the library to be build outside of Vystem build process.

The -Ofast -march=native is used on every source file, to make it faster in every use case.

The library include the following external cryptographic library:

• SPHINCS+, made by the SPHINCS+ team, sourced from sphincs/sphincsplus, under the MIT-0 license
• tiny_sha3, made by mjosaarinen, sourced from mjosaarinen/tiny_sha3, under the MIT license
• Argon2, made by the Argon2 team, sourced from P-H-C/phc-winner-argon2, under the CC0-1.0 license
