I don't have a strong opinion. If it helps testing, and we are confident that it should be little-endian, let's add it. > What's a good name?

If we look at internal building blocks, there are a couple of examples: gcm_hash, and sha1_compress (and similar compression functions for other hashes). Neither of those are advertised/documented. I think it would make sense to call the uint32_t function salsa_core, and the uint8_t function salsa_hash. We'll see if we can sort out what properties it really has, but it definitely has important similarities to a hash function. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred.
