The patch brings support of several BLAKE2 variants (2b with various digest lengths). The keyed digest is supported, using tfm->setkey call. The in-tree user will be btrfs (for checksumming), we're going to use the BLAKE2b-256 variant. The code is reference implementation taken from the official sources and modified in terms of kernel coding style (whitespace, comments, uintXX_t -> uXX types, removed unused prototypes and #ifdefs, removed testing code, changed secure_zero_memory -> memzero_explicit, used own helpers for unaligned reads/writes and rotations). Further changes removed sanity checks of key length or output size, these values are verified in the crypto API callbacks or hardcoded in shash_alg and not exposed to users.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
