There was a problem hiding this comment.
Im imagining how we are going to use this in the sliding window, so I think what we want to do now that we have this framework is to make the following changes:
-
finalizeshould accept a single parameter calledoutput_length: u64 - get rid of
valuehere and pass inoutput_lengthto cshake instead, this way we can control the blocksize output - set
self.msg= the result of cshake here, and then return self.msg
2 things are happening here:
- this allows us to use the output of this hasher as a block of keystream that we can encrypt or decrypt into the message
- we can effectively control the size of the output block to encrypt a message of any size
actually 3 things
- this keeps rehashing the previous result of cshake so that the keystream doesnt repeat but continuously pumps out new pseudorandom output. if we just keep hashing
self.msgand returning the hash separately over and over again, we will keep getting the same output repeated which we def do not want
