NAME
     md5 - message digest routines

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/kernel.h>

     void
     MD5Init(u_int32_t buf[4]);

     void
     MD5Transform(u_int32_t buf[4], u_int32_t const in[16]);

DESCRIPTION
     The md5 module implements the RSA Data Security, Inc.  MD5 Message-Digest
     Algorithm (MD5).  It produces 128-bit MD5 Digest of data.

     MD5Init	   must be called just before MD5Transform() will be used to
		   produce a digest.  The buf argument is the storage for the
		   digest being produced on subsequent calls to the
		   MD5Transform() routine.

     MD5Transform is the core of the MD5 algorithm, this alters an existing
		   MD5 hash kept in buf to reflect the addition of 16
		   longwords of new data passed in in argument.

COPYRIGHTS
     The code for MD5 transform was taken from Colin Plumb's implementation,
     which has been placed in the public domain.  The MD5 cryptographic
     checksum was devised by Ronald Rivest, and is documented in RFC 1321,
     "The MD5 Message Digest Algorithm".
