//!
//! **Pure-Rust traits and utilities for constant-time cryptographic implementations.**
//!
//! It consists of a `Choice` type, and a collection of traits using `Choice`
//! instead of `bool` which are intended to execute in constant-time. The `Choice`
//! type is a wrapper around a `u8` that holds a `0` or `1`.
//!
//! ```toml
//! subtle = "2.5"
//! ```
//!
//! This crate represents a “best-effort” attempt, since side-channels
//! are ultimately a property of a deployed cryptographic system
//! including the hardware it runs on, not just of software.
//!
//! The traits are implemented using bitwise operations, and should execute in
//! constant time provided that a) the bitwise operations are constant-time and
//! b) the bitwise operations are not recognized as a conditional assignment and
//! optimized back into a branch.
//!
//! For a compiler to recognize that bitwise operations represent a conditional
//! assignment, it needs to know that the value used to generate the bitmasks is
//! really a boolean `i1` rather than an `i8` byte value. In an attempt to
//! prevent this refinement, the crate tries to hide the value of a `Choice`'s
//! inner `u8` by passing it through a volatile read. For more information, see
//! the _About_ section below.
//!
//! Rust versions from 1.66 or higher support a new best-effort optimization
//! barrier ([`core::hint::black_box`]). To use the new optimization barrier,
//! enable the `core_hint_black_box` feature.
//!
//! Rust versions from 1.51 or higher have const generics support. You may enable
//! `const-generics` feautre to have `subtle` traits implemented for arrays `[T; N]`.
//!
//! Versions prior to `2.2` recommended use of the `nightly` feature to enable an
//! optimization barrier; this is not required in versions `2.2` and above.
//!
//! Note: the `subtle` crate contains `debug_assert`s to check invariants during
//! debug builds. These invariant checks involve secret-dependent branches, and
//! are not present when compiled in release mode. This crate is intended to be
//! used in release mode.
//!
//! ## Documentation
//!
//! Documentation is available [here][docs].
//!
//! ## Minimum Supported Rust Version
//!
//! Rust **1.41** or higher.
//!
//! Minimum supported Rust version can be changed in the future, but it will be done with a minor version bump.
//!
//! ## About
//!
//! This library aims to be the Rust equivalent of Go’s `crypto/subtle` module.
//!
//! Old versions of the optimization barrier in `impl From<u8> for Choice` were
//! based on Tim Maclean's [work on `rust-timing-shield`][rust-timing-shield],
//! which attempts to provide a more comprehensive approach for preventing
//! software side-channels in Rust code.
//!
//! From version `2.2`, it was based on Diane Hosfelt and Amber Sprenkels' work on
//! "Secret Types in Rust". Version `2.5` adds the `core_hint_black_box` feature,
//! which uses the original method through the [`core::hint::black_box`] function
//! from the Rust standard library.
//!
//! `subtle` is authored by isis agora lovecruft and Henry de Valence.
//!
//! ## Warning
//!
//! This code is a low-level library, intended for specific use-cases implementing
//! cryptographic protocols. It represents a best-effort attempt to protect
//! against some software side-channels. Because side-channel resistance is not a
//! property of software alone, but of software together with hardware, any such
//! effort is fundamentally limited.
//!
//! **USE AT YOUR OWN RISK**
//!
