## Blake
## Hash Algorithms

This library provides the following functions:

Blake hash functions are cyptographic hash algorithms. This library includes
`blake2s256`, `blake2b256`, and `blake3`.
- `blake2b512`, `blake2s256`, `blake3`, `blake3_thd`. `blake3_thd` provides
a multithreaded hasher that can be much faster for large data; per the docs,
128 KiB is about the minimum size to see any signifcant improvement over
`blake3`.
- `sha224`, `sha256`, `sha384`, `sha512` (these are also built in)
- `keccak224`, `keccak256`
- `sha3_224`, `sha3_256`, `sha3_384`, `sha3_512`
- `xxhash3`, `xxhash32`, `xxhash64`, `xxhash` (`xxhash` is an alias for
`xxhash64`)

Since the results are binary, you will often want to call `hex()` on the
results (unless storing directly in a `BINARY(32)`/`BINARY(64)`).
All of these return hex strings by defaulti. `_bin` functions are also
provided that return the binary result without going through hexification,
suitable for storage in a `BINARY(X)` column.

For all hash functions, multiple arguments are combined to produce a single hash output:

```text
MariaDB [(none)]> select xxhash('Hello, ', 0x77, 'orld', '!');
+--------------------------------------+
| xxhash('Hello, ', 0x77, 'orld', '!') |

Note that in SQL, all integers are an `i64`, all floats are a `f64`, and all
decimals are represented as a string to the UDF API. This library hashes these
types as their little endian representation. (You only need to worry about this
if you have very obscure platform compatibility requirements, and strings and
blobs are always unambiguous).

## xxhash

includes `xxhash3`, `xxhash32`, `xxhash64`, and `xxhash` (an alias for
`xxhash64`).

Compiled library binaries can be downloaded from this library's [releases] page.
The desired files can be copied to the plugin directory (usually
`/usr/lib/mysql/plugin`) and selectively loaded:
