blake3 implements the BLAKE3 cryptographic hash function.
This implementation aims to be performant without sacrificing (too much)
readability, in the hopes of eventually landing in x/crypto.
In addition to the pure-Go implementation, this package also contains AVX-512
and AVX2 routines (generated by avo)
that greatly increase performance for large inputs and outputs.
Contributions are greatly appreciated. All contributors are eligible to receive an Urbit planet.
Tested on a 2020 MacBook Air (i5-7600K @ 3.80GHz). Benchmarks will improve as soon as I get access to a beefier AVX-512 machine. 😉

There is no assembly routine for single-block compressions. This is most noticeable for ~1KB inputs.
Each assembly routine inlines all 7 rounds, causing thousands of lines of duplicated code. Ideally the routines could be merged such that only a single routine is generated for AVX-512 and AVX2, without sacrificing too much performance.
