-BLAKE2b-SIMD
-============
-
-Pure Go implementation of BLAKE2b using SIMD optimizations.
-
-Introduction
-------------
-
-This package was initially based on the pure go [BLAKE2b](https://github.com/dchest/blake2b) implementation of Dmitry Chestnykh and merged with the (`cgo` dependent) AVX optimized [BLAKE2](https://github.com/codahale/blake2) implementation (which in turn is based on the [official implementation](https://github.com/BLAKE2/BLAKE2). It does so by using [Go's Assembler](https://golang.org/doc/asm) for amd64 architectures with a golang only fallback for other architectures.
-
-In addition to AVX there is also support for AVX2 as well as SSE. Best performance is obtained with AVX2 which gives roughly a **4X** performance increase approaching hashing speeds of **1GB/sec** on a single core.
-
-Benchmarks
-----------
-
-This is a summary of the performance improvements. Full details are shown below.
-
-| Technology | 128K |
-| ---------- |:-----:|
-| AVX2 | 3.94x |
-| AVX | 3.28x |
-| SSE | 2.85x |

-asm2plan9s
-----------
-
-In order to be able to work more easily with AVX2/AVX instructions, a separate tool was developed to convert AVX2/AVX instructions into the corresponding BYTE sequence as accepted by Go assembly. See [asm2plan9s](https://github.com/minio/asm2plan9s) for more information.
-
-bt2sum
-------
-
-[bt2sum](https://github.com/s3git/bt2sum) is a utility that takes advantages of the BLAKE2b SIMD optimizations to compute check sums using the BLAKE2 Tree hashing mode in so called 'unlimited fanout' mode.
-
-Technical details
------------------
-
-BLAKE2b is a hashing algorithm that operates on 64-bit integer values. The AVX2 version uses the 256-bit wide YMM registers in order to essentially process four operations in parallel. AVX and SSE operate on 128-bit values simultaneously (two operations in parallel). Below are excerpts from `compressAvx2_amd64.s`, `compressAvx_amd64.s`, and `compress_generic.go` respectively.

-```
- VPADDQ YMM0,YMM0,YMM1 /* v0 += v4, v1 += v5, v2 += v6, v3 += v7 */
-```
-
-```
- VPADDQ XMM0,XMM0,XMM2 /* v0 += v4, v1 += v5 */
- VPADDQ XMM1,XMM1,XMM3 /* v2 += v6, v3 += v7 */
-```
-
-```
- v0 += v4
- v1 += v5
- v2 += v6
- v3 += v7
-```
-
-Detailed benchmarks
--------------------
-
-Example performance metrics were generated on Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v3 @ 2.40GHz - 6 physical cores, 12 logical cores running Ubuntu GNU/Linux with kernel version 4.4.0-24-generic (vanilla with no optimizations).
