These RFC 7693-compliant BLAKE2 implementations have been tuned for high speed and low memory usage. The .NET Core builds use the new x86 SIMD Intrinsics for even greater speed. Span{byte}
is used throughout for lower memory overhead compared to byte[]
based APIs.
On .NET Core 2.1+, Blake2Fast includes SSE4.1 SIMD-accelerated implementations of both BLAKE2b and BLAKE2s.
On .NET Core 3+, a faster AVX2 implementation of BLAKE2b is included in addition to the SSE4.1 implementation.
Usage
All-at-Once Hashing
The simplest and lightest-weight way to calculate a hash is the all-at-once ComputeHash
method.
var hash = Blake2b.ComputeHash(data);
BLAKE2 supports variable digest lengths from 1 to 32 bytes for BLAKE2s or 1 to 64 bytes for BLAKE2b.
var hash = Blake2b.ComputeHash(42, data);
BLAKE2 also natively supports keyed hashing.
var hash = Blake2b.ComputeHash(key, data);
Incremental Hashing
BLAKE2 hashes can be incrementally updated if you do not have the data available all at once.
async Task<byte[]> ComputeHashAsync(Stream data)
{
var hasher = Blake2b.CreateIncrementalHasher();
var buffer = ArrayPool<byte>.Shared.Rent(4096);
int bytesRead;
while ((bytesRead = await data.ReadAsync(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
hasher.Update(new Span<byte>(buffer, 0, bytesRead));
ArrayPool<byte>.Shared.Return(buffer);
return hasher.Finish();
}
Allocation-Free Hashing
The output hash digest can be written to an existing buffer to avoid allocating a new array each time.
Span<byte> buffer = stackalloc byte[Blake2b.DefaultDigestLength];
Blake2b.ComputeAndWriteHash(data, buffer);
This is especially useful when performing an iterative hash, as might be used in a key derivation function.
byte[] DeriveBytes(string password, ReadOnlySpan<byte> salt)
{
// Create key from password, then hash the salt using the key
var pwkey = Blake2b.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(password));
var hbuff = Blake2b.ComputeHash(pwkey, salt);
// Hash the hash lots of times, re-using the same buffer
for (int i = 0; i < 999_999; i++)
Blake2b.ComputeAndWriteHash(pwkey, hbuff, hbuff);
return hbuff;
}
System.Security.Cryptography Interop
For interoperating with code that uses System.Security.Cryptography
primitives, Blake2Fast can create a HashAlgorithm
wrapper. The wrapper inherits from HMAC
in case keyed hashing is required.
HashAlgorithm
is less efficient than the above methods, so use it only when necessary for compatibility.
byte[] WriteDataAndCalculateHash(byte[] data, string outFile)
{
using (var hashAlg = Blake2b.CreateHashAlgorithm())
using (var fileStream = new FileStream(outFile, FileMode.Create))
using (var cryptoStream = new CryptoStream(fileStream, hashAlg, CryptoStreamMode.Write))
{
cryptoStream.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
cryptoStream.FlushFinalBlock();
return hashAlg.Hash;
}
}
