14=head1 DESCRIPTION
15
16MD4 is a cryptographic hash function standardized in RFC 1320 and designed by
17Ronald Rivest, first published in 1990. This implementation is only available
18with the legacy provider.

22=item EVP_md4()
23
24The MD4 algorithm which produces a 128-bit output from a given input.

28=head1 NOTES
29
30Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of
31calling this function multiple times and should consider using
32L<EVP_MD_fetch(3)> instead.
33See L<crypto(7)/Performance> for further information.

35=head1 RETURN VALUES
36
37These functions return a B<EVP_MD> structure that contains the
38implementation of the message digest. See L<EVP_MD_meth_new(3)> for
39details of the B<EVP_MD> structure.
