=head1 NAME

EVP_MD-BLAKE2 - The BLAKE2 EVP_MD implementation

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Support for computing BLAKE2 digests through the B<EVP_MD> API.

=head2 Identities

This implementation is only available with the default provider, and
includes the following varieties:

=over 4

=item BLAKE2S-256

Known names are "BLAKE2S-256" and "BLAKE2s256".

=item BLAKE2B-512

Known names are "BLAKE2B-512" and "BLAKE2b512".

=back

=head2 Settable Parameters

"BLAKE2B-512" supports the following EVP_MD_CTX_set_params() key
described in  L<EVP_DigestInit(3)/PARAMETERS>.

=over 4

=item "xoflen" (B<OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_XOFLEN>) <unsigned integer>

=back

=head2 Gettable Parameters

This implementation supports the common gettable parameters described
in L<EVP_MD-common(7)>.

=head2 Settable Context Parameters

The implementation supports the following L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> entries which
are settable for an B<EVP_MD_CTX> with L<EVP_DigestInit_ex2(3)> or
L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_params(3)>:

=over 4

=item "size" (B<OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_SIZE>) <unsigned integer>

Sets a different digest length for the L<EVP_DigestFinal(3)> output.
The value of the "size" parameter must not exceed the default digest length
of the respective BLAKE2 algorithm variants, 64 for BLAKE2B-512 and
32 for BLAKE2S-256. The parameter must be set with the
L<EVP_DigestInit_ex2(3)> call to have an immediate effect. When set with
L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_params(3)> it will have an effect only if the B<EVP_MD_CTX>
context is reinitialized.

=head1 HISTORY

This functionality was added in OpenSSL 3.0.

The variable size support was added in OpenSSL 3.2 for BLAKE2B-512 and
in OpenSSL 3.3 for BLAKE2S-256.
