Ok, here's a try.

It's based on the mozilla SHA1 code, but with quite a bit of surgery. 
Enable with "make BLK_SHA1=1".

Timings for "git fsck --full" on the git directory:

 - Mozilla SHA1 portable C-code (sucky sucky): MOZILLA_SHA1=1

	real	0m38.194s
	user	0m37.838s
	sys	0m0.356s

 - This code ("half-portable C code"): BLK_SHA1=1

	real	0m28.120s
	user	0m27.930s
	sys	0m0.192s

 - OpenSSL assembler code:

	real	0m26.327s
	user	0m26.194s
	sys	0m0.136s

ie this is slightly slower than the openssh SHA1 routines, but that's only 
true on something very SHA1-intensive like "git fsck", and this is 
_almost_ portable code. I say "almost" because it really does require that 
we can do unaligned word loads, and do a good job of 'htonl()', and it 
assumes that 'unsigned int' is 32-bit (the latter would be easy to change 
by using 'uint32_t', but since it's not the relevant portability issue, I 
don't think it matters).

In other words, unlike the Mozilla SHA1, this one doesn't suck. It's 
certainly not great either, but it's probably good enough in practice, 
without the headaches of actually making people use an assembler version.

And maybe somebody can see how to improve it further?

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: [PATCH] Add new optimized C 'block-sha1' routines

Based on the mozilla SHA1 routine, but doing the input data accesses a
word at a time and with 'htonl()' instead of loading bytes and shifting.

It requires an architecture that is ok with unaligned 32-bit loads and a
fast htonl().
