Currently we have an associated type on hash types `Inner` with
accompanying methods `into_inner`, `from_inner`, `as_inner`. Also, we
provide a way to create new wrapped hash types. The use of 'inner'
becomes ambiguous with the addition of wrapped types because the inner
could be the inner hash type or the `Inner` byte array of the inner
wrapped hash type.
In an effort to make the API more clear and uniform do the following:
- Rename `Inner` -> `Bytes`
- Rename `*_inner` -> `*_byte_array`
- Rename the inner hash to/from methods to `*_raw_hash`
Correct method prefix `into_` -> `to_` because theses methods convert
owned `Copy` types.
Add the trait Bound `Copy` to the `Bytes` type because we rely on this
trait bound for the conversion methods to be correctly named according
to convention.
Because of the dependency hole created by `secp256k1` this patch changes
the secp dependency to a git tag dependency that includes changes to the
hashes calls required so that we can get green lights on CI in this
repo.
The API guidelines say macro input should be evocative of the output.
`hash_newtype` didn't have this property.
This change makes it look exactly like the resulting struct, `$len`
parameter was removed since it's not needed, reversing is controlled
using an attribute. The macro is also better documented and ready to be
extended in the future.
The tagged SHA256 newtype is not yet modified because it has a more
complicated input parameters.
Closes#1648
Currently we have a few things mixed up in the feature gating of
`hashes`.
Observe that:
- `io::Write` is not related to allocation.
- "std" should be able to enable "alloc".
Improve feature gating by doing:
- Enable "alloc" from "std" and simplify `cfg` codebase wide.
- Enable "internals/alloc" from "alloc".
- Fix feature gating to use the minimal requirement i.e., "alloc".
411174c391 Add fuzz target for sha512_256 (Calvin Kim)
31fc1f8638 Add support for sha512/256 (Calvin Kim)
15b5af1117 Export sha512::HashEngine fields/function within the crate (Calvin Kim)
Pull request description:
Adds a new file named `sha512_256.rs` that implements the `sha512/256` hash. This was needed as a part of https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin/discussions/1318 to drop the `sha2` dependency.
All the actual hashing code is exactly the same as `sha512.rs`, minus the initial constants and the use of `hash_type!` macro. Some unit tests were added from wikipedia (for the "" input) and the rest were from the Go standard library's tests for sha512_256.
Benchmarks on my Ryzen 3600 machine show that it is faster than sha256.
```
test sha256::benches::sha256_10 ... bench: 37 ns/iter (+/- 0) = 270 MB/s
test sha256::benches::sha256_1k ... bench: 3,338 ns/iter (+/- 24) = 306 MB/s
test sha256::benches::sha256_64k ... bench: 213,605 ns/iter (+/- 1,806) = 306 MB/s
test sha512_256::benches::sha512_256_10 ... bench: 27 ns/iter (+/- 1) = 370 MB/s
test sha512_256::benches::sha512_256_1k ... bench: 2,196 ns/iter (+/- 12) = 466 MB/s
test sha512_256::benches::sha512_256_64k ... bench: 140,552 ns/iter (+/- 777) = 466 MB/s
```
One caveat is that I could not get hongfuzz to build locally so I couldn't test the fuzz on my machine. I ended up only testing through the CI for the fuzz tests.
I thought adding a completely separate file was the easiest and the most straightforward way of implementing it. I'm very much open to changing the implementation if you guys don't think this is the right direction.

We would like to bring the `bitcoin_hashes` crate into the
`rust-bitcoin` repository.
Import `bitcoin_hashes` into `rust-bitocin/hashes`, doing so looses all
the commit history from the original crate but if we archive the
original repository then the history will be preserved. We maintain the
same version number obviously and in the changelog we note the change of
repository.
Commit hash that was tip of `bitcoin_hashes` at time of import:
commit 54c16249e06cc6b7870c7fc07d90f489d82647c7
Includes making `embedded` and `fuzzing` per-crate i.e., move them into
`bitcoin` as hashes includes these also.
NOTE: Does _not_ enable fuzzing for `hashes` in CI.
Notes on CI:
Attempts to merge in the github actions from the hashes crate however reduces
coverage by not running hashes tests for beta toolchain. Some additional
work could be done to improve the CI to increase efficiency without
reducing coverage. Leaving for another day.
