+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+The \s-1EVP\s0 digest routines are a high level interface to message digests.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_DigestInit()\fR initializes a digest context \fBctx\fR to use a digest
+\&\fBtype\fR: this will typically be supplied by a function such as
+\&\fIEVP_sha1()\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_DigestUpdate()\fR hashes \fBcnt\fR bytes of data at \fBd\fR into the
+digest context \fBctx\fR. This function can be called several times on the
+same \fBctx\fR to hash additional data.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_DigestFinal()\fR retrieves the digest value from \fBctx\fR and places
+it in \fBmd\fR. If the \fBs\fR parameter is not \s-1NULL\s0 then the number of
+bytes of data written (i.e. the length of the digest) will be written
+to the integer at \fBs\fR, at most \fB\s-1EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE\s0\fR bytes will be written.
+After calling \fIEVP_DigestFinal()\fR no additional calls to \fIEVP_DigestUpdate()\fR
+can be made, but \fIEVP_DigestInit()\fR can be called to initialize a new
+digest operation.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_CTX_copy()\fR can be used to copy the message digest state from
+\&\fBin\fR to \fBout\fR. This is useful if large amounts of data are to be
+hashed which only differ in the last few bytes.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_size()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_CTX_size()\fR return the size of the message digest
+when passed an \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR or an \fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTX\s0\fR structure, i.e. the size of the
+hash.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_block_size()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_CTX_block_size()\fR return the block size of the
+message digest when passed an \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR or an \fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTX\s0\fR structure.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_type()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_CTX_type()\fR return the \s-1NID\s0 of the \s-1OBJECT\s0 \s-1IDENTIFIER\s0
+representing the given message digest when passed an \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structure.
+For example EVP_MD_type(\fIEVP_sha1()\fR) returns \fBNID_sha1\fR. This function is
+normally used when setting \s-1ASN1\s0 OIDs.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_CTX_md()\fR returns the \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structure corresponding to the passed
+\&\fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTX\s0\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_pkey_type()\fR returns the \s-1NID\s0 of the public key signing algorithm associated
+with this digest. For example \fIEVP_sha1()\fR is associated with \s-1RSA\s0 so this will
+return \fBNID_sha1WithRSAEncryption\fR. This \*(L"link\*(R" between digests and signature
+algorithms may not be retained in future versions of OpenSSL.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_md2()\fR, \fIEVP_md5()\fR, \fIEVP_sha()\fR, \fIEVP_sha1()\fR, \fIEVP_mdc2()\fR and \fIEVP_ripemd160()\fR
+return \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structures for the \s-1MD2\s0, \s-1MD5\s0, \s-1SHA\s0, \s-1SHA1\s0, \s-1MDC2\s0 and \s-1RIPEMD160\s0 digest
+algorithms respectively. The associated signature algorithm is \s-1RSA\s0 in each case.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_dss()\fR and \fIEVP_dss1()\fR return \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structures for \s-1SHA\s0 and \s-1SHA1\s0 digest
+algorithms but using \s-1DSS\s0 (\s-1DSA\s0) for the signature algorithm.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_md_null()\fR is a \*(L"null\*(R" message digest that does nothing: i.e. the hash it
+returns is of zero length.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_get_digestbyname()\fR, \fIEVP_get_digestbynid()\fR and \fIEVP_get_digestbyobj()\fR
+return an \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structure when passed a digest name, a digest \s-1NID\s0 or
+an \s-1ASN1_OBJECT\s0 structure respectively. The digest table must be initialized
+using, for example, \fIOpenSSL_add_all_digests()\fR for these functions to work.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fIEVP_DigestInit()\fR, \fIEVP_DigestUpdate()\fR and \fIEVP_DigestFinal()\fR do not return values.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_CTX_copy()\fR returns 1 if successful or 0 for failure.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_type()\fR, \fIEVP_MD_pkey_type()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_type()\fR return the \s-1NID\s0 of the
+corresponding \s-1OBJECT\s0 \s-1IDENTIFIER\s0 or NID_undef if none exists.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_MD_size()\fR, \fIEVP_MD_block_size()\fR, \fIEVP_MD_CTX_size\fR\|(e), \fIEVP_MD_size()\fR,
+\&\fIEVP_MD_CTX_block_size()\fR and \fIEVP_MD_block_size()\fR return the digest or block
+size in bytes.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_md_null()\fR, \fIEVP_md2()\fR, \fIEVP_md5()\fR, \fIEVP_sha()\fR, \fIEVP_sha1()\fR, \fIEVP_dss()\fR,
+\&\fIEVP_dss1()\fR, \fIEVP_mdc2()\fR and \fIEVP_ripemd160()\fR return pointers to the
+corresponding \s-1EVP_MD\s0 structures.
+.PP
+\&\fIEVP_get_digestbyname()\fR, \fIEVP_get_digestbynid()\fR and \fIEVP_get_digestbyobj()\fR
+return either an \fB\s-1EVP_MD\s0\fR structure or \s-1NULL\s0 if an error occurs.
+.SH "NOTES"
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+The \fB\s-1EVP\s0\fR 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.
+.PP
+\&\s-1SHA1\s0 is the digest of choice for new applications. The other digest algorithms
+are still in common use.
+.SH "EXAMPLE"
+.IX Header "EXAMPLE"
+This example digests the data \*(L"Test Message\en\*(R" and \*(L"Hello World\en\*(R", using the
+digest name passed on the command line.

+.SH "BUGS"
+.IX Header "BUGS"
+Several of the functions do not return values: maybe they should. Although the
+internal digest operations will never fail some future hardware based operations
+might.
+.PP
+The link between digests and signing algorithms results in a situation where
+\&\fIEVP_sha1()\fR must be used with \s-1RSA\s0 and \fIEVP_dss1()\fR must be used with \s-1DSS\s0
+even though they are identical digests.
+.PP
+The size of an \fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTX\s0\fR structure is determined at compile time: this results
+in code that must be recompiled if the size of \fB\s-1EVP_MD_CTX\s0\fR increases.
