- SHA-2 For EVP
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/evp.h>
const EVP_MD *EVP_sha224(void);
const EVP_MD *EVP_sha256(void);
const EVP_MD *EVP_sha512_224(void);
const EVP_MD *EVP_sha512_256(void);
const EVP_MD *EVP_sha384(void);
const EVP_MD *EVP_sha512(void);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
SHA-2 (Secure Hash Algorithm 2) is a family of cryptographic hash functions
standardized in NIST FIPS 180-4, first published in 2001.
=over 4
=item EVP_sha224(),
EVP_sha256(),
EVP_sha512_224,
EVP_sha512_256,
EVP_sha384(),
EVP_sha512()
The SHA-2 SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-512/224, SHA512/256, SHA-384 and SHA-512
algorithms, which generate 224, 256, 224, 256, 384 and 512 bits
respectively of output from a given input.
The two algorithms: SHA-512/224 and SHA512/256 are truncated forms of the
SHA-512 algorithm. They are distinct from SHA-224 and SHA-256 even though
their outputs are of the same size.

=head1 NOTES
Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of
calling these functions multiple times and should consider using
L<EVP_MD_fetch(3)> with L<EVP_MD-SHA2(7)>instead.
See L<crypto(7)/Performance> for further information.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
These functions return a B<EVP_MD> structure that contains the
implementation of the message digest. See L<EVP_MD_meth_new(3)> for
details of the B<EVP_MD> structure.
=head1 CONFORMING TO
NIST FIPS 180-4.
