'''Yescrypt''' is a password-based key derivation function. It applies slow cryptographic operations to a password and salt, creating a key suitable for performing encryption or storage to validate the password in the future. Yescrypt algorithm is based on scrypt by Colin Percival of Tarsnap.

==Yescrypt parameters==
The yescrypt algorithm accepts the following parameters:
* Password – The password from which to derive the key.
* Salt – A random string that is unique to this password.
* N – Increasing N increases running time and memory use.
* R – Increasing R increases the size of the blocks operated on by the algorithm (and thus increases memory use).
* P – Parallelism factor.
* T – Increasing T increases running time without increasing memory use.
* G – The number of times the [[hash]] has been "upgraded." This is used for strengthening stored password hashes without requiring knowledge of the original password.
* Flags – Flags enabling/disabling yescrypt features.
* [ROM] – Read-only memory that the resulting key will be made to depend on.
* DKLen – The length of key to derive (output).
Upon completion, yescrypt returns an array of DKLen bytes, which is a key derived from the Password and Salt according to the other parameters.<br/>

The parameters must be of the following types and must conform to the following restrictions.
* Password – A byte array of arbitrary length.
* Salt – A byte array of arbitrary length.
* N – An integer power of two, strictly greater than 1.
* R – An integer strictly greater than zero.
* P – An integer strictly greater than zero.
* T – An integer greater than or equal to zero.
* G – An integer greater than or equal to zero.
* Flags – Valid flags are: YESCRYPT_RW, YESCRYPT_WORM, and YESCRYPT_PREHASH. Each flag can either be set or not set.
* [ROM] – An array of NROM blocks (a block is defined below), where NROM is a power of two strictly greater than 1. Read-only memory supporting fast random access. Optional. Maybe NULL.

The YESCRYPT_RW and YESCRYPT_WORM flags may not be set at the same time. T may only be non-zero when either the YESCRYPT_RW flag or the YESCRYPT_WORM flag is set. When the YESCRYPT_RW flag is set, floor(N/p) must be strictly greater than 1.

When no flags are set, T = 0, G = 0, and no ROM is given, Yescrypt is equivalent to classic scrypt.
[[File:yescrypt.jpg|550px|right|Yescrypt miner]]
In actual implementations of yescrypt, there will be further restrictions to these parameters. Values computed from them may overflow the integer type used to store the result. It is up to the programmer to determine these limitations and check for them, as they are platform-dependant. The integerify() function is specified to return a 64-bit value. This value is then "wrapped" according to a value computed from these parameters. If the wrap limit is more than 2<sup>64</sup>, then yescrypt is no longer [[Security|secure]]. It is left to the programmer to check for this case.

==Constants in Yescrypt==
The Yescrypt algorithm depends on several constants. These constants are not parameters to the algorithm. They are fixed at compile-time, and it is recommended to use the default values as specified here. The configurable constants may be changed independently. The derived constants are computed from the configurable constants.

===Configurable Constants===
PWXSIMPLE = 2
PWXGATHER = 4
PWXROUNDS = 6
SWIDTH = 8

===Derived Constants===
The derived constants are derived from the configurable constants.
PWXBYTES = PWXGATHER * PWXSIMPLE * 8
PWXWORDS = PWXBYTES / 4
SBYTES = 3 * (2^SWIDTH) * PWXSIMPLE * 8
SWORDS = SBYTES / 4
SMASK = ((2^SWIDTH) - 1) * PWXSIMPLE * 8
RMIN = (PWXBYTES + 127) / 128

==Data Types of Yescrypt algorithm==
Yescrypt operates on arrays of 32-bit unsigned integers. Yescrypt operates on groups of words at a time, so it is useful to define terminology for the sizes of these groups. A "cell" will refer to an array of 16 words. A "block" will refer to an array of 2*R cells, where R is a yescrypt parameter as defined above.

For example, if B is a block, then B[0] will refer to the first cell in the block, and B[1] will refer to the second cell in the block. B[0][0] will refer to the first word in the first cell of B, and B[0][1] will refer to he second word in the first cell of B. Yescrypt uses a data structure called an Sbox. An sbox is an array S of SWORDS words with three pointers (equivalently, indices) into it, called S0, S1, and S2, and an integer w. When initialized, S2 points to the beginning of S, S1 points a third of the way into S (index SWORDS / 3), and S0 points two-thirds of the way into S (index 2 * SWORDS / 3). Whenever a block or cell needs to be interpreted as a byte array, the words should be encoded in little-endian byte order.

Whenever necessary, we assume integer parameters and loop counters are contained in 64-bit unsigned integers. Overflow checks have been omitted from the psuedocode in this document, but are necessary in real implementations.

==Functions==
For each function, developers specify the input parameters and precondition constraints they must satisfy. They also specify the output and the properties it should satisfy given that the preconditions were satisfied. Note that some of the functions return values by modifying one of their input parameters. The functions' actions are specified in pseudocode.

==Security==
Note that non-optimized implementations are essentially insecure, sothe implementer needs to know their platform and might need to changetheir implementation from what we implicitly assume (e.g. 32-bit integers)ю

==Yescrypt Miner==
There are GPU miners for [[mining]] of Yescrypt via AMD and NVIDIA. However, at the moment these miners show less performance compared to mining Yescrypt using CPU.

Two cryptocurrencies – Global Boot-u (BASTY) Unitas and [[TBC]] - are currently based on the Scrypt algorithm, and the ITI is an alternative cryptocurrency with multi-support algorithms.

Results for Yescrypt performance:
* i7 5820K processor: 5.22 XC
* AMD Radeon R9 280X GPU: 0.793 kHz
* NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 GPU: 1.124 kHz
