The algorithm was designed by the United States National 18Security Agency and initially published in 1995. 19 20=over 4 21 22=item EVP_sha1() 23 24The SHA-1 algorithm which produces a 160-bit output from a given input. 25 26=back 27 28=head1 NOTES 29 30Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of 31calling this function multiple times and should consider using 32L<EVP_MD_fetch(3)> with L<EVP_MD-SHA1(7)> instead. 33See L<crypto(7)/Performance> for further information. 34 35=head1 RETURN VALUES 36 37These functions return a B<EVP_MD> structure that contains the 38implementation of the message digest. See L<EVP_MD_meth_new(3)> for 39details of the B<EVP_MD> structure. 40 41=head1 CONFORMING TO 42 43NIST FIPS 180-4. 44 45=head1 SEE ALSO 46 47L<evp(7)>, 48L<EVP_DigestInit(3)> 49 50=head1 COPYRIGHT 51 52Copyright 2017-2023 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
