DATA TYPES

   Ciphers
       cipher() = cipher_no_iv() | cipher_iv() | cipher_aead()

       cipher_no_iv() =
           aes_128_ecb | aes_192_ecb | aes_256_ecb | aes_ecb |
           blowfish_ecb | des_ecb | rc4

       cipher_iv() =
           aes_128_cbc | aes_192_cbc | aes_256_cbc | aes_cbc |
           aes_128_cfb128 | aes_192_cfb128 | aes_256_cfb128 |
           aes_cfb128 | aes_128_cfb8 | aes_192_cfb8 | aes_256_cfb8 |
           aes_cfb8 | aes_128_ctr | aes_192_ctr | aes_256_ctr | aes_ctr |
           blowfish_cbc | blowfish_cfb64 | blowfish_ofb64 | chacha20 |
           des_ede3_cbc | des_ede3_cfb | des_cbc | des_cfb | rc2_cbc

       cipher_aead() =
           aes_128_ccm | aes_192_ccm | aes_256_ccm | aes_ccm |
           aes_128_gcm | aes_192_gcm | aes_256_gcm | aes_gcm |
           chacha20_poly1305

              Ciphers known by the CRYPTO application.

              Note that this list might be reduced if the underlying libcrypto does not support all of them.

       crypto_opts() = boolean() | [crypto_opt()]

       crypto_opt() = {encrypt, boolean()} | {padding, padding()}

              Selects encryption ({encrypt,true}) or decryption ({encrypt,false}).

       padding() = cryptolib_padding() | otp_padding()

              This option handles padding in the last block. If not set, no padding is done and any bytes in the
              last unfilled block is silently discarded.

       cryptolib_padding() = none | pkcs_padding

              The  cryptolib_padding  are paddings that may be present in the underlying cryptolib linked to the
              Erlang/OTP crypto app.

              For OpenSSL, see the OpenSSL documentation. and find EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() in cryptolib for
              your linked version.

       otp_padding() = zero | random

              Erlang/OTP adds a either padding of zeroes or padding with random bytes.

           compatibility_only_hash()

       hmac_hash_algorithm() =
           sha1() | sha2() | sha3() | compatibility_only_hash()

       cmac_cipher_algorithm() =
           aes_128_cbc | aes_192_cbc | aes_256_cbc | aes_cbc |
           aes_128_cfb128 | aes_192_cfb128 | aes_256_cfb128 |
           aes_cfb128 | aes_128_cfb8 | aes_192_cfb8 | aes_256_cfb8 |
           aes_cfb8 | blowfish_cbc | des_cbc | des_ede3_cbc | rc2_cbc

       rsa_digest_type() = sha1() | sha2() | md5 | ripemd160

       dss_digest_type() = sha1() | sha2()

       ecdsa_digest_type() = sha1() | sha2()

       sha1() = sha

       sha2() = sha224 | sha256 | sha384 | sha512

       sha3() = sha3_224 | sha3_256 | sha3_384 | sha3_512

       blake2() = blake2b | blake2s

       compatibility_only_hash() = md5 | md4

              The compatibility_only_hash() algorithms are recommended  only  for  compatibility  with  existing
              applications.

              rsa_private() = [E, N, D] | [E, N, D, P1, P2, E1, E2, C]

              Where  E is the public exponent, N is public modulus and D is the private exponent. The longer key
              format contains redundant information that will make the calculation faster. P1 and P2  are  first
              and  second prime factors. E1 and E2 are first and second exponents. C is the CRT coefficient. The
              terminology is taken from  RFC 3447.

       ecdh_params() =
           ec_named_curve() | edwards_curve_dh() | ec_explicit_curve()

   Types for Engines
       engine_key_ref() =
           #{engine := engine_ref(),
             key_id := key_id(),
             password => password(),
             term() => term()}

       engine_ref() = term()

              The result of a call to engine_load/3.

       key_id() = string() | binary()

              Identifies  the  key  to  be  used.  The  format depends on the loaded engine. It is passed to the
              ENGINE_load_(private|public)_key functions in libcrypto.

       password() = string() | binary()

              The password of the key stored in an engine.

       engine_method_type() =
           engine_method_rsa | engine_method_dsa | engine_method_dh |
           engine_method_rand | engine_method_ecdh |
           engine_method_ecdsa | engine_method_ciphers |

   Internal data types
       crypto_state()

       hash_state()

       mac_state()

              Contexts with an internal state that should not be manipulated but passed between function calls.

   Error types
       run_time_error() = any()

              The exception error:badarg signifies that one or more arguments are of wrong  data  type,  or  are
              otherwise badly formed.

              The  exception  error:notsup signifies that the algorithm is known but is not supported by current
              underlying libcrypto or explicitly disabled when building that.

              For a list of supported algorithms, see supports(ciphers).

       descriptive_error() = any()

              This is a more developed variant of the older run_time_error().

              The exception is:

                     {Tag, {C_FileName,LineNumber}, Description}

                      Tag = badarg | notsup | error
                      C_FileName = string()
                      LineNumber = integer()
                      Description = string()

              It is like the older type an exception of the error class. In addition they contain a  descriptive
              text  in  English. That text is targeted to a developer. Examples are "Bad key size" or "Cipher id
              is not an atom".

              The exception tags are:

                badarg:
                  Signifies that one or more arguments are of wrong data type or are otherwise badly formed.

                notsup:
                  Signifies that the algorithm is known but is not supported by current underlying libcrypto  or
                  explicitly disabled when building that one.

                error:
                  An  error  condition  that  should  not  occur,  for example a memory allocation failed or the
                  underlying cryptolib returned an error code, for example "Can't initialize context,  step  1".
                  Those text usually needs searching the C-code to be understood.

              To catch the exception, use for example:

                     try crypto:crypto_init(Ciph, Key, IV, true)
                     catch
                         error:{Tag, {C_FileName,LineNumber}, Description} ->
                                 do_something(......)
                         .....
                     end

                 State = crypto_state()

              Initializes a series of encryptions or decryptions and creates an internal state with a  reference
              that is returned.

              If  IV  =  <<>>,  no  IV  is  used.  This  is  intended  for  ciphers  without an IV (nounce). See
              crypto_init/3.

              If IV = undefined, the IV must be added by calls to crypto_dyn_iv_update/3. This is  intended  for
              cases  where  the  IV  (nounce)  need  to  be  changed  for  each  encryption  and decryption. See
              crypto_dyn_iv_init/3.

              The actual encryption or decryption is done by crypto_update/2 (or crypto_dyn_iv_update/3 ).

              For encryption, set the FlagOrOptions to true or [{encrypt,true}]. For decryption, set it to false
              or [{encrypt,false}].

              Padding could  be  enabled  with  the  option  {padding,Padding}.  The  cryptolib_padding  enables
              pkcs_padding  or  no  padding  (none). The paddings zero or random fills the last part of the last
              block with zeroes or random bytes. If the last block is already full, nothing is added.

              In decryption, the cryptolib_padding removes such padding, if  present.  The  otp_padding  is  not
              removed - it has to be done elsewhere.

              If padding is {padding,none} or not specifed and the total data from all subsequent crypto_updates
              does  not  fill the last block fully, that last data is lost. In case of {padding,none} there will
              be an error in this case. If padding is not specified, the bytes of the unfilled block is silently
              discarded.

              The actual padding is performed by crypto_final/1.

              For blocksizes call cipher_info/1.

              See  examples in the User's Guide.

       crypto_update(State, Data) -> Result | descriptive_error()

              Types:

                 State = crypto_state()
                 Data = iodata()
                 Result = binary()

              It does an actual crypto operation on a part of the full text. If the part is less than  a  number
              of  full blocks, only the full blocks (possibly none) are encrypted or decrypted and the remaining
              bytes  are  saved  to  the  next  crypto_update  operation.  The  State  should  be  created  with
              crypto_init/3 or crypto_init/4.

              See  examples in the User's Guide.

       crypto_dyn_iv_init(Cipher, Key, FlagOrOptions) ->

                 FlagOrOptions = crypto_opts() | boolean()
                 State = crypto_state()

              Initializes  a  series  of  encryptions  or decryptions where the IV is provided later. The actual
              encryption or decryption is done by crypto_dyn_iv_update/3.

              The function is equivalent to crypto_init(Cipher, Key, undefined, FlagOrOptions).

       crypto_final(State) -> FinalResult | descriptive_error()

              Types:

                 State = crypto_state()
                 FinalResult = binary()

              Finalizes a series of encryptions or decryptions and delivers the final bytes of the final  block.
              The  data returned from this function may be empty if no padding was enabled in crypto_init/3,4 or
              crypto_dyn_iv_init/3.

       crypto_get_data(State) -> Result

              Types:

                 State = crypto_state()
                 Result = map()

              Returns information about the State in the argument. The information is the form of a  map,  which
              currently contains at least:

                size:
                  The number of bytes encrypted or decrypted so far.

                padding_size:
                  After a call to crypto_final/1 it contains the number of bytes padded. Otherwise 0.

                padding_type:
                  The type of the padding as provided in the call ot crypto_init/3,4.

                encrypt:
                  Is true if encryption is performed. It is false otherwise.

       crypto_dyn_iv_update(State, Data, IV) ->
                               Result | descriptive_error()

                 Data = IV = iodata()
                 Result = binary()

              Do an actual crypto operation on a part of the full text and the IV is supplied for each part. The
              State should be created with crypto_dyn_iv_init/3.

                 FlagOrOptions = crypto_opts() | boolean()
                 Result = binary()

              As crypto_one_time/5 but for ciphers without IVs.

       crypto_one_time(Cipher, Key, IV, Data, FlagOrOptions) ->
                          Result | descriptive_error()

              Do a complete encrypt or decrypt of the full text in the argument Data.

              For  encryption, set the FlagOrOptions to true. For decryption, set it to false. For setting other
              options, see crypto_init/4.

              See examples in the User's Guide.

                 DecryptResult = OutPlainText | error
                 OutCryptoText = OutTag = OutPlainText = binary()

              Do a complete encrypt or decrypt with an AEAD cipher of the full text.

              For encryption, set the EncryptFlag to true and set the TagOrTagLength  to  the  wanted  size  (in
              bytes)  of  the  tag,  that is, the tag length. If the default length is wanted, the crypto_aead/6
              form may be used.

              For decryption, set the EncryptFlag to false and put  the  tag  to  be  checked  in  the  argument
              TagOrTagLength.

              Can  be  used  to determine which crypto algorithms that are supported by the underlying libcrypto
              library

              See hash_info/1 and cipher_info/1 for information about the hash and cipher algorithms.

       mac(Type :: poly1305, Key, Data) -> Mac | descriptive_error()

              Types:

                 Key = Data = iodata()
                 Mac = binary()

              Short for mac(Type, undefined, Key, Data).

       mac(Type, SubType, Key, Data) -> Mac | descriptive_error()

              Types:

                 Type = hmac | cmac | poly1305
                 SubType =
                     hmac_hash_algorithm() | cmac_cipher_algorithm() | undefined
                 Key = Data = iodata()
                 Mac = binary()

              Computes a MAC (Message Authentication Code) of type Type from Data.

              SubType depends on the MAC Type:

                * For hmac it is a hash algorithm, see Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

                * For cmac it is a cipher suitable for cmac, see Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

                * For poly1305 it should be set to undefined or the mac/2 function could be  used  instead,  see
                  Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

              Key  is  the  authentication  key  with a length according to the Type and SubType. The key length
              could be found with the hash_info/1 (hmac) for and cipher_info/1 (cmac)  functions.  For  poly1305
              the key length is 32 bytes. Note that the cryptographic quality of the key is not checked.

              The  Mac  result  will  have  a default length depending on the Type and SubType. To set a shorter
              length, use macN/4 or macN/5 instead. The default length is documented in Algorithm Details in the
              User's Guide.

       macN(Type :: poly1305, Key, Data, MacLength) ->

       macN(Type, SubType, Key, Data, MacLength) ->
               Mac | descriptive_error()

              Types:

                 SubType =
                     hmac_hash_algorithm() | cmac_cipher_algorithm() | undefined
                 Key = Data = iodata()
                 Mac = binary()
                 MacLength = integer() >= 1

              Computes a MAC (Message Authentication Code) as mac/3 and mac/4 but MacLength will limit the  size
              of the resultant Mac to at most MacLength bytes. Note that if MacLength is greater than the actual
              number of bytes returned from the underlying hash, the returned hash will have that shorter length
              instead.

              The max MacLength is documented in Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

       mac_init(Type :: poly1305, Key) -> State | descriptive_error()

       mac_init(Type, SubType, Key) -> State | descriptive_error()

              Types:

                 Type = hmac | cmac | poly1305
                 SubType =
                     hmac_hash_algorithm() | cmac_cipher_algorithm() | undefined
                 Key = iodata()
                 State = mac_state()

              Initializes the context for streaming MAC operations.

              Type determines which mac algorithm to use in the MAC operation.

              SubType depends on the MAC Type:

                * For hmac it is a hash algorithm, see Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

                * For cmac it is a cipher suitable for cmac, see Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

                * For  poly1305  it  should be set to undefined or the mac/2 function could be used instead, see
                  Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

              Key is the authentication key with a length according to the Type  and  SubType.  The  key  length
              could  be  found  with the hash_info/1 (hmac) for and cipher_info/1 (cmac) functions. For poly1305
              the key length is 32 bytes. Note that the cryptographic quality of the key is not checked.

              The returned State should be used in one or more subsequent calls to mac_update/2. The  MAC  value
              is finally returned by calling mac_final/1 or mac_finalN/2.

              See  examples in the User's Guide.

       mac_update(State0, Data) -> State | descriptive_error()

                 Data = iodata()
                 State0 = State = mac_state()

              Updates the MAC represented by State0 using the given Data which could be of any length.

              The  State0 is the State value originally from a MAC init function, that is mac_init/2, mac_init/3
              or a previous call of mac_update/2. The value State0 is returned  unchanged  by  the  function  as
              State.

       mac_final(State) -> Mac | descriptive_error()

              Types:

                 State = mac_state()
                 Mac = binary()

              Finalizes  the  MAC  operation  referenced  by  State.  The  Mac result will have a default length
              depending on the Type and SubType  in  the  mac_init/2,3  call.  To  set  a  shorter  length,  use
              mac_finalN/2 instead. The default length is documented in Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

       mac_finalN(State, MacLength) -> Mac | descriptive_error()

              Types:

                 State = mac_state()
                 MacLength = integer() >= 1
                 Mac = binary()

              Finalizes the MAC operation referenced by State.

              Mac  will  be  a  binary  with at most MacLength bytes. Note that if MacLength is greater than the
              actual number of bytes returned from the underlying hash, the returned hash will have that shorter
              length instead.

              The max MacLength is documented in Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

                 State = hash_state()

              Initializes  the  context  for streaming hash operations. Type determines which digest to use. The
              returned context should be used as argument to hash_update.

              May raise exception error:notsup in case the chosen  Type  is  not  supported  by  the  underlying
              libcrypto implementation.

       hash_update(State, Data) -> NewState

              Types:

                 State = NewState = hash_state()
                 Data = iodata()

              Updates  the  digest represented by Context using the given Data. Context must have been generated
              using hash_init or a previous call to this function. Data can be any length.  NewContext  must  be
              passed into the next call to hash_update or hash_final.

       hash_final(State) -> Digest

              Types:

                 State = hash_state()
                 Digest = binary()

              Finalizes  the  hash operation referenced by Context returned from a previous call to hash_update.
              The size of Digest is determined by the type of hash function used to generate it.

       info_fips() -> not_supported | not_enabled | enabled

              Provides information about the FIPS operating  status  of  crypto  and  the  underlying  libcrypto
              library.  If  crypto  was built with FIPS support this can be either enabled (when running in FIPS
              mode) or not_enabled. For other builds this value is always not_supported.

              See enable_fips_mode/1 about how to enable FIPS mode.

          Warning:
              In FIPS mode all non-FIPS compliant algorithms are  disabled  and  raise  exception  error:notsup.
              Check supports(ciphers) that in FIPS mode returns the restricted list of available algorithms.

       enable_fips_mode(Enable) -> Result

              Types:

                 Enable = Result = boolean()

              Enables  (Enable = true) or disables (Enable = false) FIPS mode. Returns true if the operation was
              successful or false otherwise.

              Note that to enable FIPS mode succesfully, OTP must be built with the configure  option  --enable-
              fips, and the underlying libcrypto must also support FIPS.

              See also info_fips/0.

       info_lib() -> [{Name, VerNum, VerStr}]

              Types:

                 Name = binary()
                 VerNum = integer()
                 VerStr = binary()

              Provides the name and version of the libraries used by crypto.

              Name  is  the  name  of  the library. VerNum is the numeric version according to the library's own
              versioning scheme. VerStr contains a text variant of the version.

              > info_lib().
              [{<<"OpenSSL">>,269484095,<<"OpenSSL 1.1.0c  10 Nov 2016"">>}]

          Note:
              From  OTP  R16  the  numeric  version  represents  the  version  of  the  OpenSSL   header   files
              (openssl/opensslv.h)  used  when  crypto  was  compiled. The text variant represents the libcrypto
              library used at runtime. In earlier OTP versions both numeric and text was taken from the library.

              Provides a map with information about block_size, size and possibly other properties of  the  hash
              algorithm in question.

              For a list of supported hash algorithms, see supports(hashs).

                     wrap_mode | xts_mode

              Provides a map with information about block_size, key_length, iv_length, aead support and possibly
              other properties of the cipher algorithm in question.

          Note:
              The  ciphers aes_cbc, aes_cfb8, aes_cfb128, aes_ctr, aes_ecb, aes_gcm and aes_ccm has no keylength
              in the Type as opposed to for example aes_128_ctr. They adapt to the length of the key provided in
              the encrypt and decrypt function. Therefor it is impossible to return a  valid  keylength  in  the
              map.

              Always use a Type with an explicit key length,

              For a list of supported cipher algorithms, see supports(ciphers).

       mod_pow(N, P, M) -> Result

              Types:

                 N = P = M = binary() | integer()
                 Result = binary() | error

              Computes the function N^P mod M.

       rand_seed(Seed :: binary()) -> ok

              Set  the  seed  for PRNG to the given binary. This calls the RAND_seed function from openssl. Only
              use this if the system you are running on does not have enough  "randomness"  built  in.  Normally
              this is when strong_rand_bytes/1 raises error:low_entropy

       rand_uniform(Lo, Hi) -> N

              Types:

                 Lo, Hi, N = integer()

              Generate  a random number N, Lo =< N < Hi. Uses the crypto library pseudo-random number generator.
              Hi must be larger than Lo.

       start() -> ok | {error, Reason :: term()}

              Equivalent to application:start(crypto).

       stop() -> ok | {error, Reason :: term()}

              Equivalent to application:stop(crypto).

       strong_rand_bytes(N :: integer() >= 0) -> binary()

              Generates N  bytes  randomly  uniform  0..255,  and  returns  the  result  in  a  binary.  Uses  a
              cryptographically  secure  prng  seeded  and  periodically  mixed  with  operating system provided
              entropy. By default this is the RAND_bytes method from OpenSSL.

              May raise exception error:low_entropy in case the random generator failed due to  lack  of  secure
              "randomness".

       rand_seed() -> rand:state()

              Creates  state  object for random number generation, in order to generate cryptographically strong
              random numbers (based on OpenSSL's BN_rand_range), and saves it in the process  dictionary  before
              returning it as well. See also rand:seed/1 and rand_seed_s/0.

              When  using  the  state  object from this function the rand functions using it may raise exception
              error:low_entropy in case the random generator failed due to lack of secure "randomness".

              Example

              _ = crypto:rand_seed(),
              _IntegerValue = rand:uniform(42), % [1; 42]
              _FloatValue = rand:uniform().     % [0.0; 1.0[

       rand_seed_s() -> rand:state()

              Creates state object for random number generation, in order to generate cryptographically strongly
              random numbers (based on OpenSSL's BN_rand_range). See also rand:seed_s/1.

              When using the state object from this function the rand functions using  it  may  raise  exception
              error:low_entropy in case the random generator failed due to lack of secure "randomness".

          Note:
              The state returned from this function cannot be used to get a reproducable random sequence as from
              the other rand functions, since reproducability does not match cryptographically safe.

              The only supported usage is to generate one distinct random sequence from this start state.

       rand_seed_alg(Alg) -> rand:state()

              Types:

                 Alg = crypto | crypto_cache

              Creates  state  object for random number generation, in order to generate cryptographically strong
              random numbers, and saves it in the process dictionary before  returning  it  as  well.  See  also
              rand:seed/1 and rand_seed_alg_s/1.

              When  using  the  state  object from this function the rand functions using it may raise exception
              error:low_entropy in case the random generator failed due to lack of secure "randomness".

              Example

              _ = crypto:rand_seed_alg(crypto_cache),
              _IntegerValue = rand:uniform(42), % [1; 42]
              _FloatValue = rand:uniform().     % [0.0; 1.0[

       rand_seed_alg(Alg, Seed) -> rand:state()

              Types:

                 Alg = crypto_aes

              Creates a state object for random  number  generation,  in  order  to  generate  cryptographically
              unpredictable  random numbers, and saves it in the process dictionary before returning it as well.
              See also rand_seed_alg_s/2.

              Example

              _ = crypto:rand_seed_alg(crypto_aes, "my seed"),
              IntegerValue = rand:uniform(42), % [1; 42]
              FloatValue = rand:uniform(),     % [0.0; 1.0[
              _ = crypto:rand_seed_alg(crypto_aes, "my seed"),
              IntegerValue = rand:uniform(42), % Same values
              FloatValue = rand:uniform().     % again

       rand_seed_alg_s(Alg) -> rand:state()

              Types:

                 Alg = crypto | crypto_cache

              Creates state object for random number generation, in order to generate cryptographically strongly
              random numbers. See also rand:seed_s/1.

              If Alg is crypto this function behaves exactly like rand_seed_s/0.

              If Alg is crypto_cache this function fetches random data with OpenSSL's RAND_bytes and  caches  it
              for speed using an internal word size of 56 bits that makes calculations fast on 64 bit machines.

              When  using  the  state  object from this function the rand functions using it may raise exception
              error:low_entropy in case the random generator failed due to lack of secure "randomness".

              The cache size can be changed from its  default  value  using  the   crypto  app's   configuration
              parameter rand_cache_size.

              When  using  the  state  object from this function the rand functions using it may throw exception
              low_entropy in case the random generator failed due to lack of secure "randomness".

          Note:
              The state returned from this function cannot be used to get a reproducable random sequence as from
              the other rand functions, since reproducability does not match cryptographically safe.

              In fact since random data is cached some numbers may get  reproduced  if  you  try,  but  this  is
              unpredictable.

              The only supported usage is to generate one distinct random sequence from this start state.

       rand_seed_alg_s(Alg, Seed) -> rand:state()

              Types:

                 Alg = crypto_aes

              Creates  a  state  object  for  random  number  generation, in order to generate cryptographically
              unpredictable random numbers. See also rand_seed_alg/1.

              To get a long period the Xoroshiro928 generator from the rand module is used as  a  counter  (with
              period  2^928  -  1)  and  the  generator states are scrambled through AES to create 58-bit pseudo
              random values.

              The result should be statistically completely unpredictable random values, since the scrambling is
              cryptographically strong and the period is ridiculously long. But the generated numbers are not to
              be regarded as cryptographically strong since there is no re-keying schedule.

                * If you need cryptographically strong random numbers use rand_seed_alg_s/1 with Alg =:=  crypto
                  or Alg =:= crypto_cache.

                * If you need to be able to repeat the sequence use this function.

                * If  you  do  not need the statistical quality of this function, there are faster algorithms in
                  the rand module.

              Thanks to the used generator the state object supports the rand:jump/0,1  function  with  distance
              2^512.

              Numbers  are generated in batches and cached for speed reasons. The cache size can be changed from
              its default value using the  crypto app's  configuration parameter rand_cache_size.

       ec_curves() -> [EllipticCurve]

              Types:

                 EllipticCurve =
                     ec_named_curve() | edwards_curve_dh() | edwards_curve_ed()

              Can be used to determine which named elliptic curves are supported.

       ec_curve(CurveName) -> ExplicitCurve

              Types:

                 CurveName = ec_named_curve()
                 ExplicitCurve = ec_explicit_curve()

              Return the defining parameters of a elliptic curve.

                 Options = pk_sign_verify_opts()
                 Signature = binary()

              Creates a digital signature.

              The msg is either the binary "cleartext"  data  to  be  signed  or  it  is  the  hashed  value  of
              "cleartext" i.e. the digest (plaintext).

              Algorithm dss can only be used together with digest type sha.

                 Optional = boolean()
                 Result = ok | {error, Reason :: term()}

              Sends ctrl commands to the OpenSSL engine given by Engine. Optional is a boolean argument that can
              relax  the  semantics  of  the  function. If set to true it will only return failure if the ENGINE
              supported the given command name but failed while executing it, if the ENGINE doesn't support  the
              command name it will simply return success without doing anything. In this case we assume the user
              is only supplying commands specific to the given ENGINE so we set this to false.

              The  function  raises  a error:badarg if the parameters are in wrong format. It may also raise the
              exception  error:notsup  in  case  there  is  no  engine  support  in   the   underlying   OpenSSL
              implementation.

                 Result =
                     {ok, Engine :: engine_ref()} | {error, Reason :: term()}

              Loads  the  OpenSSL  engine given by EngineId and the path to the dynamic library implementing the
              engine. This function is the same as calling ensure_engine_loaded/3 with EngineMethods  set  to  a
              list of all the possible methods. An error tuple is returned if the engine can't be loaded.

              The  function  raises  a error:badarg if the parameters are in wrong format. It may also raise the
              exception  error:notsup  in  case  there  is  no  engine  support  in   the   underlying   OpenSSL

                 Result =
                     {ok, Engine :: engine_ref()} | {error, Reason :: term()}

              Loads  the  OpenSSL  engine given by EngineId and the path to the dynamic library implementing the
              engine. This function differs from the normal engine_load in that sense it also add the engine  id
              to  the  internal  list  in OpenSSL. Then in the following calls to the function it just fetch the
              reference to the engine instead of loading it again. An error tuple  is  returned  if  the  engine
              can't be loaded.

              The  function  raises  a error:badarg if the parameters are in wrong format. It may also raise the
              exception  error:notsup  in  case  there  is  no  engine  support  in   the   underlying   OpenSSL

                 Result = ok | {error, Reason :: term()}

              Unloads  an  engine  loaded with the ensure_engine_loaded function. It both removes the label from
              the OpenSSL internal engine list and unloads the engine. This function  is  the  same  as  calling
              ensure_engine_unloaded/2  with  EngineMethods  set to a list of all the possible methods. An error
              tuple is returned if the engine can't be unloaded.

              The function raises a error:badarg if the parameters are in wrong format. It may  also  raise  the
              exception   error:notsup   in   case  there  is  no  engine  support  in  the  underlying  OpenSSL
              implementation.

                 Result = ok | {error, Reason :: term()}

              Unloads an engine loaded with the ensure_engine_loaded function. It both removes  the  label  from
              the  OpenSSL internal engine list and unloads the engine. An error tuple is returned if the engine
              can't be unloaded.

              The function raises a error:badarg if the parameters are in wrong format. It may  also  raise  the
