5EVP_MD-common - The OpenSSL EVP_MD implementations, common things
6
7=head1 DESCRIPTION
8
9All the OpenSSL EVP_MD implementations understand the following
10L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> entries that are
11gettable with L<EVP_MD_get_params(3)>, as well as these:
12
13=over 4
14
15=item "blocksize" (B<OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_BLOCK_SIZE>) <unsigned integer>
16
17The digest block size.
18The length of the "blocksize" parameter should not exceed that of a
19B<size_t>.
20
21This value can also be retrieved with L<EVP_MD_get_block_size(3)>.
22
23=item "size" (B<OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_SIZE>) <unsigned integer>
24
25The digest output size.
26The length of the "size" parameter should not exceed that of a B<size_t>.
27
28This value can also be retrieved with L<EVP_MD_get_size(3)>.
29
30=item "flags" (B<OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_FLAGS>) <unsigned integer>
31
32Diverse flags that describe exceptional behaviour for the digest.
33These flags are described in L<EVP_MD_meth_set_flags(3)/DESCRIPTION>.
34
35The length of the "flags" parameter should equal that of an
36B<unsigned long int>.
37
38=begin comment
39
40The description of these flags should probably be moved.  Also,
41EVP_MD_FLAG_FIPS isn't relevant any more.
42
43=end comment
44
45This value can also be retrieved with L<EVP_MD_get_flags(3)>.
