Hopefully, like BLAKE2 it makes it into OpenSSL.
One thing I was wondering about, OpenSSL 1.3 dropped support for SSL compression. Would that mean the compression function in BLAKE2 and future BLAKE3 integration couldn't be used or is this a different layer?

- pbsd 5y agoThe compression function in a hash function has nothing to do with the general data compression that TLS got rid of; it's a component of the hash that takes n bits and outputs less than n bits in an as unstructured manner as possible.
