 6 Hashing
 *********
 
 Libgcrypt provides an easy and consistent to use interface for hashing.
 Hashing is buffered and several hash algorithms can be updated at
 once.  It is possible to calculate a MAC using the same routines.  The
 programming model follows an open/process/close paradigm and is in that
 similar to other building blocks provided by Libgcrypt.
 
    For convenience reasons, a few cyclic redundancy check value
 operations are also supported.
