pocx_hashlib

Core cryptographic library for PoCX with SIMD-optimized Shabal256 implementations.

Features

• Nonce Hashing: SIMD-optimized nonce generation for plot files
• Quality Hashing: High-performance quality calculations for mining
• Generation Signature Hashing: Next signature calculation and hex decoding
• Scoop Hashing: Block height to scoop number calculations
• SIMD Support: Runtime detection and optimization for SSE2, AVX, AVX2, AVX512f

Quick Start

use pocx_hashlib::{
    find_best_quality, calculate_scoop, 
    generate_nonces, calculate_next_generation_signature
};

// Calculate next generation signature
let next_gen_sig = calculate_next_generation_signature(&old_gen_sig, &public_key);

// Calculate scoop number for current block  
let scoop = calculate_scoop(block_height, &next_gen_sig);

// Find best quality in plot data
let (quality, index) = find_best_quality(plot_data, nonce_count, &next_gen_sig);

// Generate nonces for plotting
generate_nonces(
    &mut cache, cache_offset, 
    &address_payload, &seed, 
    start_nonce, nonce_count
)?;
