NAME 🖥️ EVP_MD-BLAKE2ssl 🖥️

BLAKE2 - The BLAKE2 EVP_MD implementation

DESCRIPTION

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.

HISTORY

This functionality was added in OpenSSL 3.0.

The variable size support was added in OpenSSL 3.2 for BLAKE2B-512.
