✨ NAME ✨

  • EVP_MD-MDC2 — the MDC2 EVP_MD implementation, and yes bestie she has range. 💅

okay so welcome to the EVP_MD-MDC2(7ossl) manual page from OpenSSL — we’re getting you caught up on the MDC2 EVP_MD implementation situation, and it’s gonna be cute and clear. 🎀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Support for computing MDC2 digests through the EVP_MD API — that’s the whole assignment, no cap. ✨

🪪 Identity

This implementation is only available with the legacy provider, and is identified with the name "MDC2". Like, legacy provider or nowhere, periodt. 👑

🎛️ Gettable Parameters

This implementation supports the common gettable parameters described in EVP_MD-common(7). That’s the gettable-params lore — the common list lives over there. 🦋

🛠️ Settable Context Parameters

This implementation supports the following OSSL_PARAM(3) entries, settable for an EVP_MD_CTX with EVP_MD_CTX_set_params(3):

  • "pad-type" (OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_PAD_TYPE) <unsigned integer> — sets the padding type to be used. Normally the final MDC2 block is padded with zeros. If the pad type is set to 2, then the final block is padded with 0x80 followed by zeros. 🌸
