NAME
EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid, EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_name
\- get default signature digest
SYNOPSIS
Header "SYNOPSIS" .Vb 1
#include <openssl/evp.h>
\&
int EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_name(EVP_PKEY *pkey,
char *mdname, size_t mdname_sz);
int EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid(EVP_PKEY *pkey, int *pnid);
.Ve
DESCRIPTION
Header "DESCRIPTION" \fBEVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_name() fills in the default message digest
name for the public key signature operations associated with key
\fIpkey into mdname, up to at most mdname_sz bytes including the
ending NUL byte. The name could be "UNDEF", signifying that a digest
must (for return value 2) or may (for return value 1) be left unspecified.
\fBEVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid() sets pnid to the default message digest NID for the public key signature operations associated with key \fIpkey. Note that some signature algorithms (i.e. Ed25519 and Ed448) do not use a digest during signing. In this case pnid will be set to NID_undef. This function is only reliable for legacy keys, which are keys with a EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD; these keys have typically been loaded from engines, or created with EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA\|(3) or similar.
NOTES
Header "NOTES" For all current standard OpenSSL public key algorithms SHA256 is returned.
"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBEVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_name() and EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid()
both return 1 if the message digest is advisory (that is other digests
can be used) and 2 if it is mandatory (other digests can not be used).
They return 0 or a negative value for failure. In particular a return
value of -2 indicates the operation is not supported by the public key
algorithm.
