* sodium_malloc() can be used to allocate any libsodium data structure,
* with the exception of crypto_generichash_state.
* sodium_malloc() can be used to allocate any libsodium data structure.
*
* The crypto_generichash_state structure is packed and its length is
* either 357 or 361 bytes. For this reason, when using sodium_malloc() to
* allocate a crypto_generichash_state structure, padding must be added in
* order to ensure proper alignment:
* state = sodium_malloc((crypto_generichash_statebytes() + (size_t) 63U)
* & ~(size_t) 63U);
* order to ensure proper alignment. crypto_generichash_statebytes()
* returns the rounded up structure size, and should be prefered to sizeof():
* state = sodium_malloc(crypto_generichash_statebytes());
