+ARM NEON (32-bit) ASM implementation of Salsa20/12
+======
+
+This is from [supercop](http://bench.cr.yp.to/supercop.html) and was originally written by Daniel J. Bernstein. Code is in the public domain like the rest of Salsa20. It's much faster than the naive implementation.
+
+It's included automatically in 32-bit Linux ARM builds. It likely will not work on 64-bit ARM, so it'll need to be ported at least. That will unfortunately keep it out of mobile versions for now since those are all going 64-bit.
