Subject: Re: Sha-256
Hi,
There's john-1.7.6-sha256cuda-0.diff on the wiki:
http://openwall.info/wiki/john/patches
This is a patch by Lukas Odzioba, described by him as follows:
"This patch provides SHA256 support for CPU and GPU execution.
GPU version is using CUDA and works only on Linux builds."
However, inside the patch I don't see a CPU implementation. I think
Lukas had one, but perhaps it was actually a separate patch. Lukas?
Meanwhile, if you have an NVidia GPU, CUDA, and Linux, you may use this
patch for some speedup.
(There are also a few other GPU patches on the wiki.)

Thanks! I assume your changes relative to my sample code are too trivial
to be subject to copyright - is this your understanding too?
In these files, the ALGORITHM_NAME strings don't make sense to me -
perhaps my convention was too cryptic for people to figure out what
these are supposed to mean. The rest looks reasonable.
