CRC32C (Castagnoli) hash calculator
The CRC32 variant with the Castagnoli polynomial; it can be hardware-accelerated with SSE4.2 and ARMv8 instructions (iSCSI, ext4, Btrfs).
CRC32C (Castagnoli) is not a cryptographic hash but an error-detecting checksum. It does not protect against deliberate changes.
