Go Hashtree

GoHashtree is a SHA256 library highly optimized for Merkle tree computation. It is based on Intel's implementation with a few modifications like hardcoding the scheduled words of the padding block. It is written in Go Assembly instead of its native assembly counterpart hashtree.

Using the library

The library exposes a single function

func Hash(digests [][32]byte, chunks [][32]byte) error

This function hashes each consecutive pair of 32 byte blocks from chunks and writes the corresponding digest to digests. It performs runtime detection of CPU features supported. The function returns an error if digests is not allocated to hold at least len(chunks)/2 digests or if an odd number of chunks is given.

Most vectorized implementations exploit the fact that independent branches in the Merkle tree can be hashed in "parallel" within one CPU, to take advantage of this, Merkleization algorithms that loop over consecutive tree layers hashing two blocks at a time need to be updated to pass the entire layer, or all consecutive blocks. A naive example on how to accomplish this can be found in this document
