This is an automated email from the git hooks/post-receive script.

paul at psgd.org pushed a change to branch sha3_mode
in repository core/hash/sha3.

      at 4b8d3a9  Add mode bits for the various flavors of SHA-3, so that the software driver doesn't have to know that the internal block size is actually 1600 bits. This involves having the "init" state zero-extend the block data, and having "next" only absorb the block bits for that mode.

This branch includes the following new commits:

     new 2e38d48  The SHA-3 algorithm really wants everything to be little-endian, which is at odds with everything else in our system (including the register interface to sha3_wrapper). Rather than trying to rewrite sha3, I'll isolate it in its own little-endian universe by byte-swapping all reads and writes.
