Therefore there would be a +memory leak if \fI*state\fP is already initialised. +.SH RETURN VALUES +The +.BR libkeccak_rawshakesum_fd () +function return 0 upon successful completion. +On error, -1 is returned and \fIerrno\fP is set to describe +the error. +.SH ERRORS +The +.BR libkeccak_rawshakesum_fd () +function may fail for any reason, except those resulting +in \fIerrno\fP being set to \fBEINTR\fP, specified for the +functions +.BR read (2), +.BR malloc (3), +and +.BR realloc (3). +.SH NOTES +Be aware, +.BR libkeccak_rawshakesum_fd () +hashes the file until the end has been reached. For pipes +and sockets and this means until the file has been closed. +But for character devices, this usually means never. +Attempting to hash files in /dev is therefore usually a +bad idea. +.BR libkeccak_rawshakesum_fd () +does not check for the file length or file type before +hashing as this could limit what you can do, and make +the library more complex. +.PP +.BR libkeccak_rawshakesum_fd () +does not stop if interrupted (\fBread\fP(2) returns +\fBEINTR\fP.) +.PP +.BR libkeccak_rawshakesum_fd () +assumes all information is non-sensitive, and will +therefore not perform any secure erasure of information. +.PP +.BR libkeccak_rawshakesum_fd () +does not validate the tuning of the algorithm. +.SH EXAMPLES +This example calculates the RawSHAKE256(, 512) hash of the input +from stdin, and prints the hash, in hexadecimal form, to stdout. +.LP +.nf +libkeccak_state_t state; +if (libkeccak_rawshakesum_fd(STDIN_FILNO, &state, 256, 512, binhash) < 0) + goto fail; +libkeccak_behex_lower(hexhash, binhash, sizeof(binhash)); +printf("%s\\n", hexhash); +.fi +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR libkeccak_behex_lower (3), +.BR libkeccak_behex_upper (3), +.BR libkeccak_generalised_sum_fd (3), +.BR libkeccak_keccaksum_fd (3), +.BR libkeccak_sha3sum_fd (3), +.BR libkeccak_shakesum_fd (3), +.BR libkeccak_spec_rawshake (3), +.BR libkeccak_spec_check (3), +.BR libkeccak_generalised_spec_initialise (3) +.SH AUTHORS +Principal author, Mattias Andrée.
