-The
-.Fn timingsafe_bcmp
-function has the same semantics as
-.Fn bcmp ,
-but its running time is independent of the contents of
-.Fa b1
-and
-.Fa b2 ,
-making it safe to use for comparing secret values such as cryptographic MACs.
-In contrast,
-.Fn bcmp
-returns after finding the first differing byte,
-making it vulnerable to timing attacks.
