Please don't do intentional optimizations while mixing them with a very ugly
coding style:
if ((ctx->partial_block_buffer_length) | (len < SHA256_BLOCK_SIZE)) {
The extra, unnecessary parantheses around ctx->partial_block_buffer_length will
make the ordinary reader assume that the person who wrote the code was unsure
about basic C syntax details and typoed the '|' as well ...
Also, for heaven's (and readability's) sake, pick shorter structure field
names.
What's wrong with ctx->partial_block_buf_len?
Also, even if the '|' was intentional - wouldn't it result in better code to
use
'||'?
Plus:

please use the customary (multi-line) comment style:
/*
* Comment .....
* ...... goes here.
*/
specified in Documentation/CodingStyle.
Thanks,
