xxhsum(1) -- print or check xxHash non-cryptographic checksums
==============================================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
`xxhsum [<OPTION>] ... [<FILE>] ...`
`xxhsum -b [<OPTION>] ...`
`xxh32sum` is equivalent to `xxhsum -H0`
`xxh64sum` is equivalent to `xxhsum -H1`
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Print or check xxHash (32 or 64bit) checksums. When <FILE> is `-`, read
standard input.
`xxhsum` supports a command line syntax similar but not identical to
md5sum(1). Differences are:
`xxhsum` doesn't have text/binary mode switch (`-b`, `-t`);
`xxhsum` always treats file as binary file;
`xxhsum` has hash bit width switch (`-H`);
As xxHash is a fast non-cryptographic checksum algorithm,
`xxhsum` should not be used for security related purposes.
`xxhsum -b` invokes benchmark mode. See [OPTIONS](#OPTIONS) and [EXAMPLES](#EXAMPLES) for details.
OPTIONS
-------
* `-V`, `--version`:
Display xxhsum version
* `-H`<HASHTYPE>:
Hash selection. <HASHTYPE> means `0`=32bits, `1`=64bits.
Default value is `1` (64bits)
* `--little-endian`:
Set output hexadecimal checksum value as little endian convention.
By default, value is displayed as big endian.
* `-h`, `--help`:
Display help and exit
**The following four options are useful only when verifying checksums (`-c`)**
* `-c`, `--check`:
Read xxHash sums from the <FILE>s and check them
* `--quiet`:
Exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines
* `--strict`:
Don't print OK for each successfully verified file
* `--status`:
Don't output anything, status code shows success
* `-w`, `--warn`:
Warn about improperly formatted checksum lines
**The following options are useful only benchmark purpose**
* `-b`:
Benchmark mode. See [EXAMPLES](#EXAMPLES) for details.
* `-B`<BLOCKSIZE>:
Only useful for benchmark mode (`-b`). See [EXAMPLES](#EXAMPLES) for details.
<BLOCKSIZE> specifies benchmark mode's test data block size in bytes.
Default value is 102400
* `-i`<ITERATIONS>:
Only useful for benchmark mode (`-b`). See [EXAMPLES](#EXAMPLES) for details.
<ITERATIONS> specifies number of iterations in benchmark. Single iteration
takes at least 2500 milliseconds. Default value is 3
EXIT STATUS
-----------
`xxhsum` exit `0` on success, `1` if at least one file couldn't be read or
doesn't have the same checksum as the `-c` option.
EXAMPLES
--------
Output xxHash (64bit) checksum values of specific files to standard output
$ xxhsum -H1 foo bar baz
Output xxHash (32bit and 64bit) checksum values of specific files to standard
output, and redirect it to `xyz.xxh32` and `qux.xxh64`
$ xxhsum -H0 foo bar baz > xyz.xxh32
$ xxhsum -H1 foo bar baz > qux.xxh64
Read xxHash sums from specific files and check them
$ xxhsum -c xyz.xxh32 qux.xxh64
Benchmark xxHash algorithm for 16384 bytes data in 10 times. `xxhsum`
benchmarks xxHash algorithm for 32-bit and 64-bit and output results to
standard output. First column means algorithm, second column is source data
size in bytes, last column means hash generation speed in mega-bytes per
seconds.
$ xxhsum -b -i10 -B16384
