CUDA-Hashing

CUDA-Hashing is a project focused on providing cryptographic hash functionality, leveraging both CPU (with OpenSSL) and eventually GPU (CUDA) acceleration for efficient hashing operations.

Features

• SHA-256 Hash Generation (CPU): Utilizes OpenSSL to compute SHA-256 hashes.
• Modular Design: Code is organized into clear submodules for crypto and (upcoming) CUDA functionality.
• Comprehensive Makefile: Automatically builds the project, handling dependencies and directory structure.

Building

The project uses a Makefile for building. To compile:

make

This will produce the binary parahash.

Usage

Currently, the main application computes the SHA-256 hash of a sample string. Example usage:

./parahash

You should see output similar to:

SHA-256 Hash: <hash_output>

File Structure

• src/crypto/inc/iterSHA256.h - Header for SHA-256 hashing functions.
• src/crypto/src/iterSHA256.c - SHA-256 hash implementation using OpenSSL.
• src/main.c - Main application demonstrating hashing.
• Makefile - Build system.
• README.md - Project overview and instructions.
