The name could be \f(CW"UNDEF"\fR, signifying that a digest must (for return value 2) or may (for return value 1) be left unspecified. .PP \&\fBEVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid()\fR sets \fIpnid\fR to the default message digest NID for the public key signature operations associated with key \&\fIpkey\fR. Note that some signature algorithms (i.e. Ed25519 and Ed448) do not use a digest during signing. In this case \fIpnid\fR will be set to NID_undef. This function is only reliable for legacy keys, which are keys with a \fBEVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD\fR; these keys have typically been loaded from engines, or created with \fBEVP_PKEY_assign_RSA\fR\|(3) or similar. .SH NOTES .IX Header "NOTES" For all current standard OpenSSL public key algorithms SHA256 is returned. .SH "RETURN VALUES" .IX Header "RETURN VALUES" \&\fBEVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_name()\fR and \fBEVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid()\fR both return 1 if the message digest is advisory (that is other digests can be used) and 2 if it is mandatory (other digests can not be used). They return 0 or a negative value for failure. In particular a return value of \-2 indicates the operation is not supported by the public key algorithm. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fBEVP_PKEY_CTX_new\fR\|(3), \&\fBEVP_PKEY_sign\fR\|(3), \&\fBEVP_PKEY_digestsign_supports_digest\fR\|(3), \&\fBEVP_PKEY_verify\fR\|(3), \&\fBEVP_PKEY_verify_recover\fR\|(3), .SH HISTORY .IX Header "HISTORY" This function was added in OpenSSL 1.0.0. .SH COPYRIGHT .IX Header "COPYRIGHT" Copyright 2006\-2023 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
