✨ crypto_ahash_finup — update and finalize message digest ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 this one's a cute lil shortcut function and honestly it's giving "two birds, one stone" and we're obsessed 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int crypto_ahash_finup (struct ahash_request *req );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • req — a reference to the ahash_request handle 💅 and like… this thing holds all the info you need to actually perform the cipher operation. all of it. no notes.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea ☕ — crypto_ahash_finup is literally just a "short-hand" for calling crypto_ahash_update and crypto_ahash_final. that's it. that's the function. two calls, one function, iconic behavior honestly 👑

and the parameters? same meaning as what's discussed for those two separate functions, no cap. so if you already know how those work, you're set — you don't have to relearn anything, iykyk 😌✨

💀 RETURN 💀
