.Sh DESCRIPTION
The SHA2 functions implement the NIST Secure Hash Standard,
FIPS PUB 180-2.
The SHA2 functions are used to generate a condensed representation of a
message called a message digest, suitable for use as a digital signature.
There are three families of functions, with names corresponding to
the number of bits in the resulting message digest.
The SHA-256 functions are limited to processing a message of less
than 2^64 bits as input.
The SHA-384 and SHA-512 functions can process a message of at most 2^128 - 1
bits as input.
.Pp
The SHA2 functions are considered to be more secure than the
.Xr sha1 3
functions with which they share a similar interface.
The 256, 384, and 512-bit versions of SHA2 share the same interface.
For brevity, only the 256-bit variants are described below.
.Pp
The
.Fn SHA256_Init
function initializes a SHA256_CTX
.Ar context
for use with
.Fn SHA256_Update ,
and
.Fn SHA256_Final .
The
.Fn SHA256_Update
function adds
.Ar data
of length
.Ar len
to the SHA256_CTX specified by
.Ar context .
.Fn SHA256_Final
is called when all data has been added via
.Fn SHA256_Update
and stores a message digest in the
.Ar digest
parameter.
When a null pointer is passed to
.Fn SHA256_Final
as first argument only the final padding will be applied and the
current context can still be used with
.Fn SHA256_Update .
.Pp
The
.Fn SHA256_End
function is a front end for
.Fn SHA256_Final
which converts the digest into an
.Tn ASCII
representation of the digest in hexadecimal.
.Pp
The
.Fn SHA256_File
function calculates the digest for a file and returns the result via
.Fn SHA256_End .
If
.Fn SHA256_File
is unable to open the file, a NULL pointer is returned.
.Pp
The
.Fn SHA256_Data
function
calculates the digest of an arbitrary string and returns the result via
.Fn SHA256_End .
.Pp
For each of the
.Fn SHA256_End ,
.Fn SHA256_File ,
and
.Fn SHA256_Data
functions the
.Ar buf
parameter should either be a string large enough to hold the resulting digest
(e.g.\&
.Ev SHA256_DIGEST_STRING_LENGTH ,
.Ev SHA384_DIGEST_STRING_LENGTH
or
.Ev SHA512_DIGEST_STRING_LENGTH ,
depending on the function being used)
or a NULL pointer.
In the latter case, space will be dynamically allocated via
.Xr malloc 3
and should be freed using
.Xr free 3
when it is no longer needed.
.Sh EXAMPLES
The following code fragment will calculate the SHA-256 digest for the string
.Qq abc ,
which is
.Dq 0xba7816bf8f01cfea414140de5dae2223b00361a396177a9cb410ff61f20015ad .
.Bd -literal -offset indent
SHA256_CTX ctx;
u_int8_t results[SHA256_DIGEST_LENGTH];
char *buf;
int n;
buf = "abc";
n = strlen(buf);
SHA256_Init(&ctx);
SHA256_Update(&ctx, (u_int8_t *)buf, n);
SHA256_Final(results, &ctx);
/* Print the digest as one long hex value */
printf("0x");
for (n = 0; n < SHA256_DIGEST_LENGTH; n++)
printf("%02x", results[n]);
putchar('\en');
.Ed
.Pp
Alternately, the helper functions could be used in the following way:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
SHA256_CTX ctx;
u_int8_t output[SHA256_DIGEST_STRING_LENGTH];
char *buf = "abc";
printf("0x%s\en", SHA256_Data(buf, strlen(buf), output));

.Sh HISTORY
The SHA2 functions appeared in
.Ox 3.4 .
.Sh AUTHORS
This implementation of the SHA functions was written by Aaron D. Gifford.
.Pp
The
.Fn SHA256_End ,
.Fn SHA256_File ,
and
.Fn SHA256_Data
helper functions are derived from code written by Poul-Henning Kamp.
.Sh CAVEATS
This implementation of the Secure Hash Standard has not been validated by
NIST and as such is not in official compliance with the standard.
.Pp
If a message digest is to be copied to a multi-byte type (ie:
an array of five 32-bit integers) it will be necessary to
perform byte swapping on little endian machines such as the i386, alpha,
and vax.
