Constructor

Argon2(PinnedMemory<byte> key, byte[] salt, byte[] associatedData = null)

Options

HashLength

Length of hash to output, typically 32, 64.

Lanes

Parallelism number of parallel threads, typically 4, or number of cpu cores.

Threads

Number of threads to spawn in relation to parallelism. This is typically 1, or number of cpu cores.

MemoryCost

Amount of memory (in kibibytes) to use. The more that's used the harder it may be for GPU's to process.

TimeCost

Amount of interations to use. The more that's used the harder it may be for CPU's to process.

Methods

Get the hash output length.

int GetLength()

Update the hash with a single byte.

void Update(byte input)

Update the hash with a pinned memory byte array.

void UpdateBlock(PinnedMemory<byte> input, int inOff, int len)

Update the hash with a byte array.

void UpdateBlock(byte[] input, int inOff, int len)

Produce the final hash outputting to pinned memory. Key & salt remain until dispose is called.

void DoFinal(PinnedMemory<byte> output, int outOff)

Reset the hash back to it's initial state for further processing. Key & salt remain until dispose is called.

void Reset()

Clear key & salt, reset hash back to it's initial state.

void Dispose()
