.SH "DESCRIPTION"
The EVP digest routines are a high level interface to message digests.
.PP
\fIEVP_DigestInit()\fR initialises a digest context \fBctx\fR to use a digest
\fBtype\fR: this will typically be supplied by a function such as
\fIEVP_sha1()\fR.
.PP
\fIEVP_DigestUpdate()\fR hashes \fBcnt\fR bytes of data at \fBd\fR into the
digest context \fBctx\fR. This funtion can be called several times on the
same \fBctx\fR to hash additional data.
.PP
\fIEVP_DigestFinal()\fR retrieves the digest value from \fBctx\fR and places
it in \fBmd\fR. If the \fBs\fR parameter is not NULL then the number of
bytes of data written (i.e. the length of the digest) will be written
to the integer at \fBs\fR, at most \fBEVP_MAX_MD_SIZE\fR bytes will be written.
After calling \fIEVP_DigestFinal()\fR no additional calls to \fIEVP_DigestUpdate()\fR
can be made, but \fIEVP_DigestInit()\fR can be called to initialiase a new
digest operation.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_CTX_copy()\fR can be used to copy the message digest state from
\fBin\fR to \fBout\fR. This is useful if large amounts of data are to be
hashed which only differ in the last few bytes.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_size()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_CTX_size()\fR return the size of the message digest
when passed an \fBEVP_MD\fR or an \fBEVP_MD_CTX\fR structure, i.e. the size of the
hash.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_block_size()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_CTX_block_size()\fR return the block size of the
message digest when passed an \fBEVP_MD\fR or an \fBEVP_MD_CTX\fR structure.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_type()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_CTX_type()\fR return the NID of the OBJECT IDENTIFIER
representing the given message digest when passed an \fBEVP_MD\fR structure.
For example \fIEVP_MD_type\fR\|(\fIEVP_sha1()\fR) returns \fBNID_sha1\fR. This function is
normally used when setting ASN1 OIDs.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_CTX_md()\fR returns the \fBEVP_MD\fR structure corresponding to the passed
\fBEVP_MD_CTX\fR.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_pkey_type()\fR returns the NID of the public key signing algorithm associated
with this digest. For example \fIEVP_sha1()\fR is associated with RSA so this will
return \fBNID_sha1WithRSAEncryption\fR. This \*(L"link\*(R" between digests and signature
algorithms may not be retained in future versions of OpenSSL.
.PP
\fIEVP_md2()\fR, \fIEVP_md5()\fR, \fIEVP_sha()\fR, \fIEVP_sha1()\fR, \fIEVP_mdc2()\fR and \fIEVP_ripemd160()\fR
return \fBEVP_MD\fR structures for the MD2, MD5, SHA, SHA1, MDC2 and RIPEMD160 digest
algorithms respectively. The associated signature algorithm is RSA in each case.
.PP
\fIEVP_dss()\fR and \fIEVP_dss1()\fR return \fBEVP_MD\fR structures for SHA and SHA1 digest
algorithms but using DSS (DSA) for the signature algorithm.
.PP
\fIEVP_md_null()\fR is a \*(L"null\*(R" message digest that does nothing: i.e. the hash it
returns is of zero length.
.PP
\fIEVP_get_digestbyname()\fR, \fIEVP_get_digestbynid()\fR and \fIEVP_get_digestbyobj()\fR
return an \fBEVP_MD\fR structure when passed a digest name, a digest NID or
an ASN1_OBJECT structure respectively. The digest table must be initialised
using, for example, \fIOpenSSL_add_all_digests()\fR for these functions to work.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
\fIEVP_DigestInit()\fR, \fIEVP_DigestUpdate()\fR and \fIEVP_DigestFinal()\fR do not return values.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_CTX_copy()\fR returns 1 if successful or 0 for failure.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_type()\fR, \fIEVP_MD_pkey_type()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_type()\fR return the NID of the
corresponding OBJECT IDENTIFIER or NID_undef if none exists.
.PP
\fIEVP_MD_size()\fR, \fIEVP_MD_block_size()\fR, \fIEVP_MD_CTX_size\fR\|(e), \fIEVP_MD_size()\fR,
\fIEVP_MD_CTX_block_size()\fR	and \fIEVP_MD_block_size()\fR return the digest or block
size in bytes.
.PP
\fIEVP_md_null()\fR, \fIEVP_md2()\fR, \fIEVP_md5()\fR, \fIEVP_sha()\fR, \fIEVP_sha1()\fR, \fIEVP_dss()\fR,
\fIEVP_dss1()\fR, \fIEVP_mdc2()\fR and \fIEVP_ripemd160()\fR return pointers to the
corresponding EVP_MD structures.
.PP
\fIEVP_get_digestbyname()\fR, \fIEVP_get_digestbynid()\fR and \fIEVP_get_digestbyobj()\fR
return either an \fBEVP_MD\fR structure or NULL if an error occurs.
.SH "NOTES"
The \fBEVP\fR interface to message digests should almost always be used in
preference to the low level interfaces. This is because the code then becomes
transparent to the digest used and much more flexible.
.PP
SHA1 is the digest of choice for new applications. The other digest algorithms
are still in common use.
.SH "EXAMPLE"
This example digests the data \*(L"Test Message\en\*(R" and \*(L"Hello World\en\*(R", using the
digest name passed on the command line.

.Ve
.SH "BUGS"
Several of the functions do not return values: maybe they should. Although the
internal digest operations will never fail some future hardware based operations
might.
.PP
The link between digests and signing algorithms results in a situation where
\fIEVP_sha1()\fR must be used with RSA and \fIEVP_dss1()\fR must be used with DSS
even though they are identical digests.
.PP
The size of an \fBEVP_MD_CTX\fR structure is determined at compile time: this results
in code that must be recompiled if the size of \fBEVP_MD_CTX\fR increases.
