Print CRC and size for each file

Synopsis

cksum [-a|--algorithm] [--untagged] [--tag] [-l|--length] [--raw] [-c|--check] [-w|--warn] [--status] [--quiet] [--ignore-missing] [--strict] [--base64] [-z|--zero] [--debug] [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [file]

Description

Print CRC and size for each file

Options

-a,  --algorithm <ALGORITHM>

select the digest type to use. See DIGEST below

Possible values:

  • sysv
  • bsd
  • crc
  • crc32b
  • md5
  • sha1
  • sha2
  • sha3
  • blake2b
  • sm3
  • sha224
  • sha256
  • sha384
  • sha512
  • blake3
  • shake128
  • shake256
--untagged

create a reversed style checksum, without digest type

--tag

create a BSD style checksum (default)

-l,  --length

digest length in bits; must not exceed the max size and must be a multiple of 8 for blake2b; must be 224, 256, 384, or 512 for sha2 or sha3

--raw

emit a raw binary digest, not hexadecimal

-c,  --check

read checksums from the FILEs and check them

-w,  --warn

warn about improperly formatted checksum lines

--status

don't output anything, status code shows success

--quiet

don't print OK for each successfully verified file

--ignore-missing

don't fail or report status for missing files

--strict

exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines

--base64

emit base64-encoded digests, not hexadecimal

-z,  --zero

end each output line with NUL, not newline, and disable file name escaping

--debug

print CPU hardware capability detection info used by cksum

-h,  --help

Print help

-V,  --version

Print version

Extra

DIGEST determines the digest algorithm and default output format:

- sysv: (equivalent to sum -s) - bsd: (equivalent to sum -r) - crc: (equivalent to cksum) - crc32b: (only available through cksum) - md5: (equivalent to md5sum) - sha1: (equivalent to sha1sum) - sha2: (equivalent to sha{224,256,384,512}sum) - sha3: (only available through cksum) - blake2b: (equivalent to b2sum) - sm3: (only available through cksum)
