How To Install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev on Kali Linux
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev on Kali Linux.
What is golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev
golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev is:
sha256-simd accelerate SHA256 computations in pure Go for both Intel (AVX2, AVX, SSE) as well as ARM (arm64) platforms. Introduction This package is designed as a drop-in replacement for crypto/sha256. For Intel CPUs it has three flavors for AVX2, AVX and SSE whereby the fastest method is automatically chosen depending on CPU capabilities. For ARM CPUs with the Cryptography Extensions advantage is taken of the SHA2 instructions resulting in a massive performance improvement.
This package uses Golang assembly and as such does not depend on cgo. The Intel versions are based on the implementations as described in “Fast SHA-256 Implementations on Intel Architecture Processors” by J. Guilford et al. Performance Below is the speed in MB/s for a single core (ranked fast to slow) as well as the factor of improvement over crypto/sha256 (when applicable).
There are three methods to install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.
Install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev Using apt-get
Update apt database with apt-get using the following command.
sudo apt-get updateAfter updating apt database, We can install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev using apt-get by running the following command:
sudo apt-get -y install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-devInstall golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev Using apt
Update apt database with apt using the following command.
sudo apt updateAfter updating apt database, We can install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev using apt by running the following command:
sudo apt -y install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-devInstall golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev Using aptitude
If you want to follow this method, you might need to install aptitude on Kali Linux first since aptitude is usually not installed by default on Kali Linux. Update apt database with aptitude using the following command.
sudo aptitude updateAfter updating apt database, We can install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev using aptitude by running the following command:
sudo aptitude -y install golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-devHow To Uninstall golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev on Kali Linux
To uninstall only the golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev package we can use the following command:
sudo apt-get remove golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-devUninstall golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev And Its Dependencies
To uninstall golang-github-minio-sha256-simd-dev and its dependencies that are no longer needed by Kali Linux, we can use the command below:
