61=head1 DESCRIPTION
62
63All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
64Applications should instead use the OSSL_PROVIDER APIs.
65
66The B<EVP_MD> type is a structure for digest method implementation.
67It can also have associated public/private key signing and verifying
68routines.
69
70EVP_MD_meth_new() creates a new B<EVP_MD> structure.
71These B<EVP_MD> structures are reference counted.
72
73EVP_MD_meth_dup() creates a copy of B<md>.
74
75EVP_MD_meth_free() decrements the reference count for the B<EVP_MD> structure.
76If the reference count drops to 0 then the structure is freed.
77If the argument is NULL, nothing is done.
78
79EVP_MD_meth_set_input_blocksize() sets the internal input block size
80for the method B<md> to B<blocksize> bytes.
81
82EVP_MD_meth_set_result_size() sets the size of the result that the
83digest method in B<md> is expected to produce to B<resultsize> bytes.
84
85The digest method may have its own private data, which OpenSSL will
86allocate for it.  EVP_MD_meth_set_app_datasize() should be used to
87set the size for it to B<datasize>.
88
89EVP_MD_meth_set_flags() sets the flags to describe optional
90behaviours in the particular B<md>.  Several flags can be or'd
91together.  The available flags are:
92
93=over 4
94
95=item EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT
96
97This digest method can only handle one block of input.
98
99=item EVP_MD_FLAG_XOF
100
101This digest method is an extensible-output function (XOF) and supports
102the B<EVP_MD_CTRL_XOF_LEN> control.
103
104=item EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL
105
106When setting up a DigestAlgorithmIdentifier, this flag will have the
107parameter set to NULL by default.  Use this for PKCS#1.  I<Note: if
108combined with EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT, the latter will override.>
109
110=item EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT
111
112When setting up a DigestAlgorithmIdentifier, this flag will have the
113parameter be left absent by default.  I<Note: if combined with
114EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL, the latter will be overridden.>
115
116=item EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_CUSTOM
117
118Custom DigestAlgorithmIdentifier handling via ctrl, with
119B<EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_ABSENT> as default.  I<Note: if combined with
120EVP_MD_FLAG_DIGALGID_NULL, the latter will be overridden.>
121Currently unused.
122
123=item EVP_MD_FLAG_FIPS
124
125This digest method is suitable for use in FIPS mode.
126Currently unused.
127
128=back
129
130EVP_MD_meth_set_init() sets the digest init function for B<md>.
131The digest init function is called by EVP_Digest(), EVP_DigestInit(),
132EVP_DigestInit_ex(), EVP_SignInit, EVP_SignInit_ex(), EVP_VerifyInit()
133and EVP_VerifyInit_ex().
134
135EVP_MD_meth_set_update() sets the digest update function for B<md>.
136The digest update function is called by EVP_Digest(), EVP_DigestUpdate() and
137EVP_SignUpdate().
138
139EVP_MD_meth_set_final() sets the digest final function for B<md>.
140The digest final function is called by EVP_Digest(), EVP_DigestFinal(),
141EVP_DigestFinal_ex(), EVP_SignFinal() and EVP_VerifyFinal().
142
143EVP_MD_meth_set_copy() sets the function for B<md> to do extra
144computations after the method's private data structure has been copied
145from one B<EVP_MD_CTX> to another.  If all that's needed is to copy
146the data, there is no need for this copy function.
147Note that the copy function is passed two B<EVP_MD_CTX *>, the private
148data structure is then available with EVP_MD_CTX_get0_md_data().
149This copy function is called by EVP_MD_CTX_copy() and
150EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
151
152EVP_MD_meth_set_cleanup() sets the function for B<md> to do extra
153cleanup before the method's private data structure is cleaned out and
154freed.
155Note that the cleanup function is passed a B<EVP_MD_CTX *>, the
156private data structure is then available with EVP_MD_CTX_get0_md_data().
157This cleanup function is called by EVP_MD_CTX_reset() and
158EVP_MD_CTX_free().
159
160EVP_MD_meth_set_ctrl() sets the control function for B<md>.
161See L<EVP_MD_CTX_ctrl(3)> for the available controls.
162
163EVP_MD_meth_get_input_blocksize(), EVP_MD_meth_get_result_size(),
164EVP_MD_meth_get_app_datasize(), EVP_MD_meth_get_flags(),
165EVP_MD_meth_get_init(), EVP_MD_meth_get_update(),
166EVP_MD_meth_get_final(), EVP_MD_meth_get_copy(),
167EVP_MD_meth_get_cleanup() and EVP_MD_meth_get_ctrl() are all used
168to retrieve the method data given with the EVP_MD_meth_set_*()
169functions above.
170
171=head1 RETURN VALUES
172
173EVP_MD_meth_new() and EVP_MD_meth_dup() return a pointer to a newly
174created B<EVP_MD>, or NULL on failure.
175All EVP_MD_meth_set_*() functions return 1.
176EVP_MD_get_input_blocksize(), EVP_MD_meth_get_result_size(),
177EVP_MD_meth_get_app_datasize() and EVP_MD_meth_get_flags() return the
178indicated sizes or flags.
179All other EVP_CIPHER_meth_get_*() functions return pointers to their
180respective B<md> function.

185
186=head1 HISTORY
187
188All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
189
190The B<EVP_MD> structure was openly available in OpenSSL before version
1911.1.
192The functions described here were added in OpenSSL 1.1.
193The B<EVP_MD> structure created with these functions became reference
194counted in OpenSSL 3.0.
