Support for libsodium (or NaCL) libraries

Open Scratch-net opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

Hi! It would be nice to be able to use libsodium primitives as they are much faster (authenticated encryption is many times faster than HMAC-SHAXX and XSalsa20 is faster than AES on ARMs), constant time (protects from side channel attacks) and easy to implement. What do you think?

For ZRTP we have to stick to the RFC6189, thus changing the algorithms is not that easy. Also the library is not only for ARM but for other systems as well.
