EVP_MD−BLAKE2 − The BLAKE2 EVP_MD implementation
Support for computing BLAKE2 digests through the EVP_MD API.
Identities
This implementation is only available with the default
provider, and includes the following varieties:
BLAKE2S−256
Known names are " BLAKE2S−256" and "BLAKE2s256".
BLAKE2B−512
Known names are " BLAKE2B−512" and "BLAKE2b512".
Gettable
Parameters
This implementation supports the common gettable parameters
described in EVP_MD−common(7).
Settable
Context Parameters
The BLAKE2B−512 implementation supports
the following OSSL_PARAM (3) entries
which are settable for an EVP_MD_CTX
with EVP_DigestInit_ex2(3) or
EVP_MD_CTX_set_params(3):
"size" (
OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_SIZE ) <unsigned
integer>
Sets a different digest length for the EVP_DigestFinal(3) output. The value of the "size" parameter must not exceed the default digest length (64 for BLAKE2B−512 ). The parameter must be set with the EVP_DigestInit_ex2(3) call to have an immediate effect. When set with EVP_MD_CTX_set_params(3) it will have an effect only if the EVP_MD_CTX context is reinitialized.
provider−digest(7), OSSL_PROVIDER−default(7)
This functionality was added in OpenSSL 3.0.
The variable size support was added in OpenSSL 3.2 for BLAKE2B−512.
