B<ctx> must be initialized before calling this -function. B<type> will typically be supplied by a functionsuch as EVP_sha1(). -If B<impl> is NULL then the default implementation of digest B<type> is used. - -EVP_DigestUpdate() hashes B<cnt> bytes of data at B<d> into the -digest context B<ctx>. This function can be called several times on the -same B<ctx> to hash additional data. - -EVP_DigestFinal_ex() retrieves the digest value from B<ctx> and places -it in B<md>. If the B<s> 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 B<s>, at most B<EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE> bytes will be written. -After calling EVP_DigestFinal_ex() no additional calls to EVP_DigestUpdate() -can be made, but EVP_DigestInit_ex() can be called to initialize a new -digest operation. - -EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup() cleans up digest context B<ctx>, it should be called -after a digest context is no longer needed. - -EVP_MD_CTX_destroy() cleans up digest context B<ctx> and frees up the -space allocated to it, it should be called only on a context created -using EVP_MD_CTX_create(). - -EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() can be used to copy the message digest state from -B<in> to B<out>. This is useful if large amounts of data are to be -hashed which only differ in the last few bytes. B<out> must be initialized -before calling this function. - -EVP_DigestInit() behaves in the same way as EVP_DigestInit_ex() except -the passed context B<ctx> does not have to be initialized, and it always -uses the default digest implementation. - -EVP_DigestFinal() is similar to EVP_DigestFinal_ex() except the digest -context B<ctx> is automatically cleaned up. - -EVP_MD_CTX_copy() is similar to EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() except the destination -B<out> does not have to be initialized. - -EVP_MD_size() and EVP_MD_CTX_size() return the size of the message digest -when passed an B<EVP_MD> or an B<EVP_MD_CTX> structure, i.e. the size of the -hash. - -EVP_MD_block_size() and EVP_MD_CTX_block_size() return the block size of the -message digest when passed an B<EVP_MD> or an B<EVP_MD_CTX> structure. - -EVP_MD_type() and EVP_MD_CTX_type() return the NID of the OBJECT IDENTIFIER -representing the given message digest when passed an B<EVP_MD> structure. -For example EVP_MD_type(EVP_sha1()) returns B<NID_sha1>. This function is -normally used when setting ASN1 OIDs. - -EVP_MD_CTX_md() returns the B<EVP_MD> structure corresponding to the passed -B<EVP_MD_CTX>. - -EVP_MD_pkey_type() returns the NID of the public key signing algorithm associated -with this digest. For example EVP_sha1() is associated with RSA so this will -return B<NID_sha1WithRSAEncryption>. Since digests and signature algorithms -are no longer linked this function is only retained for compatibility -reasons. - -EVP_md2(), EVP_md5(), EVP_sha(), EVP_sha1(), EVP_sha224(), EVP_sha256(), -EVP_sha384(), EVP_sha512(), EVP_mdc2() and EVP_ripemd160() return B<EVP_MD> -structures for the MD2, MD5, SHA, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, MDC2 -and RIPEMD160 digest algorithms respectively. - -EVP_dss() and EVP_dss1() return B<EVP_MD> structures for SHA and SHA1 digest -algorithms but using DSS (DSA) for the signature algorithm. Note: there is -no need to use these pseudo-digests in OpenSSL 1.0.0 and later, they are -however retained for compatibility. - -EVP_md_null() is a "null" message digest that does nothing: i.e. the hash it -returns is of zero length. - -EVP_get_digestbyname(), EVP_get_digestbynid() and EVP_get_digestbyobj() -return an B<EVP_MD> structure when passed a digest name, a digest NID or -an ASN1_OBJECT structure respectively. The digest table must be initialized -using, for example, OpenSSL_add_all_digests() for these functions to work. - -=head1 RETURN VALUES - -EVP_DigestInit_ex(), EVP_DigestUpdate() and EVP_DigestFinal_ex() return 1 for -success and 0 for failure. - -EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() returns 1 if successful or 0 for failure. - -EVP_MD_type(), EVP_MD_pkey_type() and EVP_MD_type() return the NID of the -corresponding OBJECT IDENTIFIER or NID_undef if none exists. - -EVP_MD_size(), EVP_MD_block_size(), EVP_MD_CTX_size() and -EVP_MD_CTX_block_size() return the digest or block size in bytes. - -EVP_md_null(), EVP_md2(), EVP_md5(), EVP_sha(), EVP_sha1(), EVP_dss(), -EVP_dss1(), EVP_mdc2() and EVP_ripemd160() return pointers to the -corresponding EVP_MD structures. - -EVP_get_digestbyname(), EVP_get_digestbynid() and EVP_get_digestbyobj() -return either an B<EVP_MD> structure or NULL if an error occurs. - -=head1 NOTES - -The B<EVP> 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. - -New applications should use the SHA2 digest algorithms such as SHA256. -The other digest algorithms are still in common use. - -For most applications the B<impl> parameter to EVP_DigestInit_ex() will be -set to NULL to use the default digest implementation. - -The functions EVP_DigestInit(), EVP_DigestFinal() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy() are -obsolete but are retained to maintain compatibility with existing code. New -applications should use EVP_DigestInit_ex(), EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and -EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() because they can efficiently reuse a digest context -instead of initializing and cleaning it up on each call and allow non default -implementations of digests to be specified. - -In OpenSSL 0.9.7 and later if digest contexts are not cleaned up after use -memory leaks will occur. - -Stack allocation of EVP_MD_CTX structures is common, for example: - - EVP_MD_CTX mctx; - EVP_MD_CTX_init(&mctx); - -This will cause binary compatibility issues if the size of EVP_MD_CTX -structure changes (this will only happen with a major release of OpenSSL). -Applications wishing to avoid this should use EVP_MD_CTX_create() instead: - - EVP_MD_CTX *mctx; - mctx = EVP_MD_CTX_create(); - - -=head1 EXAMPLE - -This example digests the data "Test Message\n" and "Hello World\n", using the -digest name passed on the command line. - - #include <stdio.h> - #include <openssl/evp.h> - - main(int argc, char *argv[]) - { - EVP_MD_CTX *mdctx; - const EVP_MD *md; - char mess1[] = "Test Message\n"; - char mess2[] = "Hello World\n"; - unsigned char md_value[EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE]; - int md_len, i; - - OpenSSL_add_all_digests(); - - if(!argv[1]) { - printf("Usage: mdtest digestname\n"); - exit(1); - } - - md = EVP_get_digestbyname(argv[1]); - - if(!md) { - printf("Unknown message digest %s\n", argv[1]); - exit(1); - } - - mdctx = EVP_MD_CTX_create(); - EVP_DigestInit_ex(mdctx, md, NULL); - EVP_DigestUpdate(mdctx, mess1, strlen(mess1)); - EVP_DigestUpdate(mdctx, mess2, strlen(mess2)); - EVP_DigestFinal_ex(mdctx, md_value, &md_len); - EVP_MD_CTX_destroy(mdctx); - - printf("Digest is: "); - for(i = 0; i < md_len; i++) - printf("%02x", md_value[i]); - printf("\n"); - - /* Call this once before exit. */ - EVP_cleanup(); - exit(0); - } - -=head1 SEE ALSO - -L<dgst(1)|dgst(1)>, -L<evp(3)|evp(3)> - -=head1 HISTORY - -EVP_DigestInit(), EVP_DigestUpdate() and EVP_DigestFinal() are -available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL. - -EVP_MD_CTX_init(), EVP_MD_CTX_create(), EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex(), -EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_MD_CTX_destroy(), EVP_DigestInit_ex() -and EVP_DigestFinal_ex() were added in OpenSSL 0.9.7. - -EVP_md_null(), EVP_md2(), EVP_md5(), EVP_sha(), EVP_sha1(), -EVP_dss(), EVP_dss1(), EVP_mdc2() and EVP_ripemd160() were -changed to return truly const EVP_MD * in OpenSSL 0.9.7. - -The link between digests and signing algorithms was fixed in OpenSSL 1.0 and -later, so now EVP_sha1() can be used with RSA and DSA; there is no need to -use EVP_dss1() any more. - -OpenSSL 1.0 and later does not include the MD2 digest algorithm in the -default configuration due to its security weaknesses. - -=cut |
