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 3 . .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 3 .Sh HISTORY These functions appeared in .Ox 5.7 .
