Source: adler32.go in package hash/adler32

Package adler32 implements the Adler-32 checksum. It is defined in RFC 1950: Adler-32 is composed of two sums accumulated per byte: s1 is the sum of all bytes, s2 is the sum of all s1 values. Both sums are done modulo 65521. s1 is initialized to 1, s2 to zero. The Adler-32 checksum is stored as s2*65536 + s1 in most- significant-byte first (network) order.

package adler32

import (
	"errors"
	"hash"
)

mod is the largest prime that is less than 65536.

nmax is the largest n such that 255 * n * (n+1) / 2 + (n+1) * (mod-1) <= 2^32-1. It is mentioned in RFC 1950 (search for "5552").

	nmax = 5552

The size of an Adler-32 checksum in bytes.

const Size = 4

digest represents the partial evaluation of a checksum. The low 16 bits are s1, the high 16 bits are s2.

type digest uint32

func (d *digest) Reset() { *d = 1 }

New returns a new hash.Hash32 computing the Adler-32 checksum. Its Sum method will lay the value out in big-endian byte order. The returned Hash32 also implements encoding.BinaryMarshaler and encoding.BinaryUnmarshaler to marshal and unmarshal the internal state of the hash.

func New() hash.Hash32 {
	d := new(digest)
	d.Reset()
	return d
}

func (d *digest) Size() int { return Size }

func (d *digest) BlockSize() int { return 4 }

const (
	magic         = "adl\x01"
	marshaledSize = len(magic) + 4
)

func (d *digest) MarshalBinary() ([]byte, error) {
	b := make([]byte, 0, marshaledSize)
	b = append(b, magic...)
	b = appendUint32(b, uint32(*d))
	return b, nil
}

func (d *digest) UnmarshalBinary(b []byte) error {
	if len(b) < len(magic) || string(b[:len(magic)]) != magic {
		return errors.New("hash/adler32: invalid hash state identifier")
	}
	if len(b) != marshaledSize {
		return errors.New("hash/adler32: invalid hash state size")
	}
	*d = digest(readUint32(b[len(magic):]))
	return nil
}

func appendUint32(b []byte, x uint32) []byte {
	a := [4]byte{
		byte(x >> 24),
		byte(x >> 16),
		byte(x >> 8),
		byte(x),
	}
	return append(b, a[:]...)
}

func readUint32(b []byte) uint32 {
	_ = b[3]
	return uint32(b[3]) | uint32(b[2])<<8 | uint32(b[1])<<16 | uint32(b[0])<<24
}

Add p to the running checksum d.

func update(d digest, p []byte) digest {
	s1, s2 := uint32(d&0xffff), uint32(d>>16)
	for len(p) > 0 {
		var q []byte
		if len(p) > nmax {
			p, q = p[:nmax], p[nmax:]
		}
		for len(p) >= 4 {
			s1 += uint32(p[0])
			s2 += s1
			s1 += uint32(p[1])
			s2 += s1
			s1 += uint32(p[2])
			s2 += s1
			s1 += uint32(p[3])
			s2 += s1
			p = p[4:]
		}
		for _, x := range p {
			s1 += uint32(x)
			s2 += s1
		}
		s1 %= mod
		s2 %= mod
		p = q
	}
	return digest(s2<<16 | s1)
}

func (d *digest) Write(p []byte) (nn int, err error) {
	*d = update(*d, p)
	return len(p), nil
}

func (d *digest) Sum32() uint32 { return uint32(*d) }

func (d *digest) Sum(in []byte) []byte {
	s := uint32(*d)
	return append(in, byte(s>>24), byte(s>>16), byte(s>>8), byte(s))
}

Checksum returns the Adler-32 checksum of data.
