57=head1 DESCRIPTION
58
59The B<EVP_MD> type is a structure for digest method implementation.
60It can also have associated public/private key signing and verifying
61routines.
62
63EVP_MD_meth_new() creates a new B<EVP_MD> structure.
64
65EVP_MD_meth_dup() creates a copy of B<md>.
66
67EVP_MD_meth_free() destroys a B<EVP_MD> structure.
68
69EVP_MD_meth_set_input_blocksize() sets the internal input block size
70for the method B<md> to B<blocksize> bytes.
71
72EVP_MD_meth_set_result_size() sets the size of the result that the
73digest method in B<md> is expected to produce to B<resultsize> bytes.
74
75The digest method may have its own private data, which OpenSSL will
76allocate for it. EVP_MD_meth_set_app_datasize() should be used to
77set the size for it to B<datasize>.
78
79EVP_MD_meth_set_flags() sets the flags to describe optional
80behaviours in the particular B<md>. Several flags can be or'd
81together. The available flags are:
82
83=over 4
84
85=item EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT
86
87This digest method can only handle one block of input.
88
89=item EVP_MD_FLAG_XOF
90
91This digest method is an extensible-output function (XOF) and supports
92the B<EVP_MD_CTRL_XOF_LEN> control.
93
94=item EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL
95
96When setting up a DigestAlgorithmIdentifier, this flag will have the
97parameter set to NULL by default. Use this for PKCS#1. I<Note: if
98combined with EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT, the latter will override.>
99
100=item EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT
101
102When setting up a DigestAlgorithmIdentifier, this flag will have the
103parameter be left absent by default. I<Note: if combined with
104EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL, the latter will be overridden.>
105
106=item EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_CUSTOM
107
108Custom DigestAlgorithmIdentifier handling via ctrl, with
109B<EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT> as default. I<Note: if combined with
110EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL, the latter will be overridden.>
111Currently unused.
112
113=item EVP_MD_FLAG_FIPS
114
115This digest method is suitable for use in FIPS mode.
116Currently unused.
117
118=back
119
120EVP_MD_meth_set_init() sets the digest init function for B<md>.
121The digest init function is called by EVP_Digest(), EVP_DigestInit(),
122EVP_DigestInit_ex(), EVP_SignInit, EVP_SignInit_ex(), EVP_VerifyInit()
123and EVP_VerifyInit_ex().
124
125EVP_MD_meth_set_update() sets the digest update function for B<md>.
126The digest update function is called by EVP_Digest(), EVP_DigestUpdate() and
127EVP_SignUpdate().
128
129EVP_MD_meth_set_final() sets the digest final function for B<md>.
130The digest final function is called by EVP_Digest(), EVP_DigestFinal(),
131EVP_DigestFinal_ex(), EVP_SignFinal() and EVP_VerifyFinal().
132
133EVP_MD_meth_set_copy() sets the function for B<md> to do extra
134computations after the method's private data structure has been copied
135from one B<EVP_MD_CTX> to another. If all that's needed is to copy
136the data, there is no need for this copy function.
137Note that the copy function is passed two B<EVP_MD_CTX *>, the private
138data structure is then available with EVP_MD_CTX_md_data().
139This copy function is called by EVP_MD_CTX_copy() and
140EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
141
142EVP_MD_meth_set_cleanup() sets the function for B<md> to do extra
143cleanup before the method's private data structure is cleaned out and
144freed.
145Note that the cleanup function is passed a B<EVP_MD_CTX *>, the
146private data structure is then available with EVP_MD_CTX_md_data().
147This cleanup function is called by EVP_MD_CTX_reset() and
148EVP_MD_CTX_free().
149
150EVP_MD_meth_set_ctrl() sets the control function for B<md>.
151See L<EVP_MD_CTX_ctrl(3)> for the available controls.
152
153EVP_MD_meth_get_input_blocksize(), EVP_MD_meth_get_result_size(),
154EVP_MD_meth_get_app_datasize(), EVP_MD_meth_get_flags(),
155EVP_MD_meth_get_init(), EVP_MD_meth_get_update(),
156EVP_MD_meth_get_final(), EVP_MD_meth_get_copy(),
157EVP_MD_meth_get_cleanup() and EVP_MD_meth_get_ctrl() are all used
158to retrieve the method data given with the EVP_MD_meth_set_*()
159functions above.
160
161=head1 RETURN VALUES
162
163EVP_MD_meth_new() and EVP_MD_meth_dup() return a pointer to a newly
164created B<EVP_MD>, or NULL on failure.
165All EVP_MD_meth_set_*() functions return 1.
166EVP_MD_get_input_blocksize(), EVP_MD_meth_get_result_size(),
167EVP_MD_meth_get_app_datasize() and EVP_MD_meth_get_flags() return the
168indicated sizes or flags.
169All other EVP_CIPHER_meth_get_*() functions return pointers to their
170respective B<md> function.

176=head1 HISTORY
177
178The B<EVP_MD> structure was openly available in OpenSSL before version
1791.1. The functions described here were added in OpenSSL 1.1.
