Subject: New Verified ChaCha20-Poly1305 Paper
Date: Mon, 6 May 2019 19:32:45 +1000	[thread overview]

I just saw this paper[1] which claims to have an implementation of
ChaCha20-Poly1305 in vectorised assembly using a method which
"deliver[s] formally verified vectorized implementations which
outperform the fastest non-verified code"

Is there any interest in using this for Zinc (it's my understanding[2]
that the ChaCha20 and Poly1305 code in Zinc is *not* formally verified)?
The repo is [3]. It looks like they don't have verified generic C
implementations unfortunately, but aren't there verified C versions in
HACL*?
