Subject: [PATCH] sha256: add support for Nettle
For SHA-256, we currently have support for OpenSSL and libgcrypt because these two libraries contain optimized implementations that can take advantage of native processor instructions. However, OpenSSL is not suitable for linking against for Linux distros due to licensing incompatibilities with the GPLv2, and libgcrypt has been less favored by cryptographers due to some security-related implementation issues.
Let's add another option that's compatible with the GPLv2, which is Nettle, and give it preference over all others when Nettle and other choices are possible. It also has recently gained support for Intel's SHA-NI instructions, which compare very favorably to other implementations. For example, using this implementation and SHA-1 DC on a machine with SHA-NI, hashing a 2 GiB file with SHA-1 takes 7.582 seconds, while hashing the same file with SHA-256 takes 2.278 seconds.
