"extra", the provider with extra algorithm implementations

This provider includes a number of algorithms that didn't fit the criteria for inclusion into the main OpenSSL source for diverse reasons, ranging from having fallen so much out of favor that it isn't included even in the legacy provider, to stuff that is too experimental, or needs to mature further before inclusion in OpenSSL's official providers.

Provider parameters

These parameters can be retrieved using OSSL_PROVIDER_get_params(3):

  • "version" <UTF8 string>

    The version number of the provider.

  • "buildinfo" <UTF8 string>

    The build type as specified by cmake.

  • "author" <UTF8 string>

    An identifier for the author of this provider.

Currently included algorithms

KDFs

Hashes
