        int X509_NAME_digest(const X509_NAME *data, const EVP_MD *type,
                             unsigned char *md, unsigned int *len);

        #include <openssl/pkcs7.h>

        int PKCS7_ISSUER_AND_SERIAL_digest(PKCS7_ISSUER_AND_SERIAL *data,
                                           const EVP_MD *type, unsigned char *md,

DESCRIPTION

       X509_digest_sig() calculates a digest of the given certificate cert using the same hash
       algorithm as in its signature, if the digest is an integral part of the certificate
       signature algorithm identifier.  Otherwise, a fallback hash algorithm is determined as
       follows: SHA512 if the signature algorithm is ED25519, SHAKE256 if it is ED448, otherwise
       SHA256.  The output parameters are assigned as follows.  Unless md_used is NULL, the hash
       algorithm used is provided in *md_used and must be freed by the caller (if it is not
       NULL).  Unless md_is_fallback is NULL, the *md_is_fallback is set to 1 if the hash
       algorithm used is a fallback, otherwise to 0.

       X509_pubkey_digest() returns a digest of the DER representation of the public key in the
       specified X509 data object.

       All other functions described here return a digest of the DER representation of their
       entire data objects.

       The type parameter specifies the digest to be used, such as EVP_sha1(). The md is a
       pointer to the buffer where the digest will be copied and is assumed to be large enough;
       the constant EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE is suggested. The len parameter, if not NULL, points to a
       place where the digest size will be stored.

RETURN VALUES

       X509_digest_sig() returns an ASN1_OCTET_STRING pointer on success, else NULL.

       All other functions described here return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
