Hello,
When I'm trying to implement ML-KEM (Kyber), I realized that the current
API for SHAKE (sha3_256_shake) is a bit too limited: while ML-KEM uses
SHAKE128 as a source of pseudorandom samples[1], the the current API
requires the total number of bytes are determined prior to the call, and
after the call the hash context is reset.
Here I propose adding a couple of helper functions to support such
streaming use-case: sha3_256_shake_pad to process the final block, and
sha3_256_shake_read to read the digest from the current state without
resetting the context. With those functions, one could write a
streaming read interface as attached.
What do you think? The actual code changes can be found at:
https://git.lysator.liu.se/nettle/nettle/-/merge_requests/61
I also have a SHAKE128 implementation with analogous API, which I will
post later.
Regards,
