RT1665: aes documentation. Paul Green wrote a nice aes.pod file. But we now encourage the EVP interface. So I took his RT item and used it as impetus to add the AES modes to EVP_EncryptInit.pod I also noticed that rc4.pod has spurious references to some other cipher pages, so I removed them. RT2300: Clean up MD history (merged into RT1665) Put HISTORY section only in EVP_DigestInit.pod. Also add words to discourage use of older cipher-specific API, and remove SEE ALSO links that point to them. Make sure digest pages have a NOTE that says use EVP_DigestInit. Review feedback: More cleanup in EVP_EncryptInit.pod Fixed SEE ALSO links in ripemd160.pod, sha.pod, mdc2.pod, blowfish.pod, rc4.d, and des.pod. Re-order sections in des.pod for consistency Reviewed-by: Matt Caswell <matt@openssl.org>

|
|
SHA1, SHA1_Init, SHA1_Update, SHA1_Final - Secure Hash Algorithm
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
#include <openssl/sha.h>
|
|
|
|
unsigned char *SHA1(const unsigned char *d, unsigned long n,
|
|
unsigned char *md);
|
|
|
|
int SHA1_Init(SHA_CTX *c);
|
|
int SHA1_Update(SHA_CTX *c, const void *data,
|
|
unsigned long len);
|
|
int SHA1_Final(unsigned char *md, SHA_CTX *c);
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm) is a cryptographic hash function with a
|
|
160 bit output.
|
|
|
|
SHA1() computes the SHA-1 message digest of the B<n>
|
|
bytes at B<d> and places it in B<md> (which must have space for
|
|
SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH == 20 bytes of output). If B<md> is NULL, the digest
|
|
is placed in a static array.
|
|
|
|
The following functions may be used if the message is not completely
|
|
stored in memory:
|
|
|
|
SHA1_Init() initializes a B<SHA_CTX> structure.
|
|
|
|
SHA1_Update() can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message to
|
|
be hashed (B<len> bytes at B<data>).
|
|
|
|
SHA1_Final() places the message digest in B<md>, which must have space
|
|
for SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH == 20 bytes of output, and erases the B<SHA_CTX>.
|
|
|
|
Applications should use the higher level functions
|
|
L<EVP_DigestInit(3)|EVP_DigestInit(3)>
|
|
etc. instead of calling the hash functions directly.
|
|
|
|
The predecessor of SHA-1, SHA, is also implemented, but it should be
|
|
used only when backward compatibility is required.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
SHA1() returns a pointer to the hash value.
|
|
|
|
SHA1_Init(), SHA1_Update() and SHA1_Final() return 1 for success, 0 otherwise.
