✨ sha3_384_init — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the sha3_384_init(9) page 💅 this is your girl's guide to kicking off a SHA3-384 message digest computation in the kernel, and honestly? it's giving "small function, big responsibility" energy 👑

🌸 NAME 🌸

sha3_384_init — Initialize a context for SHA3-384 💖

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void sha3_384_init (struct sha3_ctx *ctx );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ctx — the context you wanna initialize 🫶 like, this is the lil workspace that's about to hold all your SHA3-384 state, so hand it over and let it cook.

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

This begins a new SHA3-384 message digest computation ✨ that's literally it, that's the whole vibe. You call it, the context is fresh and ready, and then you can feed it data and wrap things up with the other sha3 functions. no cap 🧚

---

💜 CONTEXT 💜

Any context. fr fr, no restrictions, she's flexible 💅
