.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
Applications should instead use the \s-1OSSL_PROVIDER\s0 APIs.
.PP
The \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR type is a structure for digest method implementation.
It can also have associated public/private key signing and verifying
routines.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_new()\fR creates a new \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structure.
These \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structures are reference counted.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_dup()\fR creates a copy of \fBmd\fR.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_free()\fR decrements the reference count for the \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structure.
If the reference count drops to 0 then the structure is freed.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_input_blocksize()\fR sets the internal input block size
for the method \fBmd\fR to \fBblocksize\fR bytes.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_result_size()\fR sets the size of the result that the
digest method in \fBmd\fR is expected to produce to \fBresultsize\fR bytes.
.PP
The digest method may have its own private data, which OpenSSL will
allocate for it.  \fBEVP_MD_meth_set_app_datasize()\fR should be used to
set the size for it to \fBdatasize\fR.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_flags()\fR sets the flags to describe optional
behaviours in the particular \fBmd\fR.  Several flags can be or'd
together.  The available flags are:
.IP "\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT\s0" 4
.IX Item "EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT"
This digest method can only handle one block of input.
.IP "\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_XOF\s0" 4
.IX Item "EVP_MD_FLAG_XOF"
This digest method is an extensible-output function (\s-1XOF\s0) and supports
the \fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTRL_XOF_LEN\s0\fR control.
.IP "\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL\s0" 4
.IX Item "EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL"
When setting up a DigestAlgorithmIdentifier, this flag will have the
parameter set to \s-1NULL\s0 by default.  Use this for PKCS#1.  \fINote: if
combined with \s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT,\s0 the latter will override.\fR
.IP "\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT\s0" 4
.IX Item "EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT"
When setting up a DigestAlgorithmIdentifier, this flag will have the
parameter be left absent by default.  \fINote: if combined with
\&\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL,\s0 the latter will be overridden.\fR
.IP "\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_CUSTOM\s0" 4
.IX Item "EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_CUSTOM"
Custom DigestAlgorithmIdentifier handling via ctrl, with
\&\fB\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT\s0\fR as default.  \fINote: if combined with
\&\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL,\s0 the latter will be overridden.\fR
Currently unused.
.IP "\s-1EVP_MD_FLAG_FIPS\s0" 4
.IX Item "EVP_MD_FLAG_FIPS"
This digest method is suitable for use in \s-1FIPS\s0 mode.
Currently unused.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_init()\fR sets the digest init function for \fBmd\fR.
The digest init function is called by \fBEVP_Digest()\fR, \fBEVP_DigestInit()\fR,
\&\fBEVP_DigestInit_ex()\fR, EVP_SignInit, \fBEVP_SignInit_ex()\fR, \fBEVP_VerifyInit()\fR
and \fBEVP_VerifyInit_ex()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_update()\fR sets the digest update function for \fBmd\fR.
The digest update function is called by \fBEVP_Digest()\fR, \fBEVP_DigestUpdate()\fR and
\&\fBEVP_SignUpdate()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_final()\fR sets the digest final function for \fBmd\fR.
The digest final function is called by \fBEVP_Digest()\fR, \fBEVP_DigestFinal()\fR,
\&\fBEVP_DigestFinal_ex()\fR, \fBEVP_SignFinal()\fR and \fBEVP_VerifyFinal()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_copy()\fR sets the function for \fBmd\fR to do extra
computations after the method's private data structure has been copied
from one \fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTX\s0\fR to another.  If all that's needed is to copy
the data, there is no need for this copy function.
Note that the copy function is passed two \fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTX\s0 *\fR, the private
data structure is then available with \fBEVP_MD_CTX_get0_md_data()\fR.
This copy function is called by \fBEVP_MD_CTX_copy()\fR and
\&\fBEVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_cleanup()\fR sets the function for \fBmd\fR to do extra
cleanup before the method's private data structure is cleaned out and
freed.
Note that the cleanup function is passed a \fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTX\s0 *\fR, the
private data structure is then available with \fBEVP_MD_CTX_get0_md_data()\fR.
This cleanup function is called by \fBEVP_MD_CTX_reset()\fR and
\&\fBEVP_MD_CTX_free()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_set_ctrl()\fR sets the control function for \fBmd\fR.
See \fBEVP_MD_CTX_ctrl\fR\|(3) for the available controls.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_get_input_blocksize()\fR, \fBEVP_MD_meth_get_result_size()\fR,
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_get_app_datasize()\fR, \fBEVP_MD_meth_get_flags()\fR,
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_get_init()\fR, \fBEVP_MD_meth_get_update()\fR,
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_get_final()\fR, \fBEVP_MD_meth_get_copy()\fR,
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_get_cleanup()\fR and \fBEVP_MD_meth_get_ctrl()\fR are all used
to retrieve the method data given with the EVP_MD_meth_set_*()
functions above.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_new()\fR and \fBEVP_MD_meth_dup()\fR return a pointer to a newly
created \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR, or \s-1NULL\s0 on failure.
All EVP_MD_meth_set_*() functions return 1.
\&\fBEVP_MD_get_input_blocksize()\fR, \fBEVP_MD_meth_get_result_size()\fR,
\&\fBEVP_MD_meth_get_app_datasize()\fR and \fBEVP_MD_meth_get_flags()\fR return the
indicated sizes or flags.
All other EVP_CIPHER_meth_get_*() functions return pointers to their
respective \fBmd\fR function.

All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
.PP
The \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structure was openly available in OpenSSL before version
1.1.
The functions described here were added in OpenSSL 1.1.
The \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structure created with these functions became reference
