[issue38550] hashlib missing algorithms

[Christian Heimes]

Christian Heimes <lists at cheimes.de> added the comment:

According to OpenSSL documentation it is not necessary to call any init function. All ciphers and all digests are default options.

As of version 1.1.0 OpenSSL will automatically allocate all resources that it needs so no explicit initialisation is required. Similarly it will also automatically deinitialise as required.

OPENSSL_INIT_ADD_ALL_CIPHERS
With this option the library will automatically load and make available all libcrypto ciphers. This option is a default option.

OPENSSL_INIT_ADD_ALL_DIGESTS
With this option the library will automatically load and make available all libcrypto digests. This option is a default option.
