Module mundane::password::scrypt

The scrypt password hashing function.

scrypt was originally proposed in Stronger Key Derivation via Sequential Memory-Hard Functions and standardized in RFC 7914.

A note on terminology: scrypt is technically a key derivation function, and its output is thus technically a key. However, we expose it here only for the purposes of password verification, and thus we use the term "hash" to refer to its output.

Structs

ScryptHash	The output of the scrypt password hashing function.
ScryptParams	The parameters to the scrypt function.

Constants

SCRYPT_HASH_LEN	The length of an scrypt hash.
SCRYPT_PARAMS_LAPTOP	Recommended paramaters for a laptop.
SCRYPT_PARAMS_SERVER	Recommended parameters for a production server.
SCRYPT_SALT_LEN	The length of an scrypt salt.

Functions

scrypt_generate	Generates an scrypt hash for the given password.
scrypt_verify	Verifies a password against an scrypt hash.
