pub fn merge_subtrees_non_root(
left_child: &ChainingValue,
right_child: &ChainingValue,
mode: Mode<'_>,
) -> ChainingValue
Expand description
Compute a non-root parent node chaining value from two child chaining values.
See the module level examples, particularly the discussion of valid tree
structures. The left and right child chaining values can come from either
Hasher::finalize_non_root
or other calls to
merge_subtrees_non_root
. “Chaining value” is the academic term for a non-root or non-final
hash.
