Sorry I missed this before -- I have a few suggestions below to align this better with SHA1 and SHA256.

llvm/include/llvm/Support/MD5.h
81–83

I'm not seeing finalWords() in the other hashers. I suggest not adding it.

85

The other hashers return a StringRef. MD5 should align with that, and also return the raw bytes as they do (instead of a hex string).

Looking at SHA1 and SHA256, they have two methods, result() and final(), the former of which can be called at any time. Here is the implementation of result():

StringRef SHA1::result() {
  auto StateToRestore = InternalState;

  auto Hash = final();

  // Restore the state
  InternalState = StateToRestore;

  // Return pointer to hash (20 characters)
  return Hash;
}

I think if we're adding one we should add both, for consistency.

  • Seems we'd need a prep NFC patch that moved its members into an InternalState member.
  • MD5::final() can add an MD5Result member, calling final(MD5Result&) on it and returning a StringRef referencing MD5Result::bytes, and then MD5::result() can be implemented exactly as in SHA1.
llvm/lib/Support/MD5.cpp
276

The other hashers do not return a digest, but the raw bytes. MD5 should align with that.

llvm/unittests/Support/MD5Test.cpp
77

I think this should avoid a magic number, and just confirm that the final() return is equal to MD5Result::bytes when calling final(MD5Result&).
