13 The EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid() function sets pnid to the default
14 message digest NID for the public key signature operations associated
15 with key pkey. Note that some signature algorithms (i.e. Ed25519 and
16 Ed448) do not use a digest during signing. In this case pnid will be
17 set to NID_undef.

20 For all current standard OpenSSL public key algorithms SHA1 is
21 returned.

24 The EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid() function returns 1 if the message
25 digest is advisory (that is other digests can be used) and 2 if it is
26 mandatory (other digests can not be used). It returns 0 or a negative
27 value for failure. In particular a return value of -2 indicates the
28 operation is not supported by the public key algorithm.
