💜 EVP_MD-SHA3 — the SHA3 glow-up, explained

okay so this is the EVP_MD-SHA3 page from the 7ossl manual, and it's genuinely short and sweet — literally the entire point is "SHA3 digests, but through the EVP_MD API." That's it. That's the vibe. ✨

🌸 NAME

EVP_MD-SHA3 — the SHA3 EVP_MD implementations, bestie. That's the whole title card.

🦋 DESCRIPTION

So like, this is the support for computing SHA3 digests through the EVP_MD API. That's the sentence. It's giving minimal and confident. 🎀

✨ Identities

Here's the tea: this implementation is available with the FIPS provider as well as the default provider, and it includes the following varieties:

  • "SHA3-224"
  • "SHA3-256"
  • "SHA3-384"
  • "SHA3-512"

Four of them. Iconic lineup honestly. 👑

💅 Gettable Parameters

This implementation supports the common gettable parameters described over in EVP_MD-common(7) — go read that one if you want the details, iykyk. 🫶

ngl this page is a short one, but that's not a problem — everything it says is load-bearing. Provider matters, names matter, and the gettable params live somewhere else. Periodt.
