[PATCH RFC v2 2/3] ipv6: move from sha1 to blake2s in address calculation

From: Jason A. Donenfeld
Date: Fri Jan 14 2022 - 09:20:59 EST


BLAKE2s is faster and more secure. SHA-1 has been broken for a long time
now. This also removes some code complexity, and lets us potentially
remove sha1 from lib, which would further reduce vmlinux size. This also
lets us use the secret in the proper field for a secret, rather than the
prepending done in the prior construction.
