DESCRIPTION¶

This command is used to generate list of algorithms or disabled features.

OPTIONS¶

• -help

  Display a usage message.

• -verbose

  Displays extra information. The options below where verbosity applies say a bit more about what that means.

• -select name

  Only list algorithms that match this name.

• -1

  List the commands, digest-commands, or cipher-commands in a single column. If used, this option must be given first.

• -commands

  Display a list of standard commands.

• -standard-commands

  List of standard commands.

• -digest-commands

  This option is deprecated. Use digest-algorithms instead.

  Display a list of message digest commands, which are typically used as input to the openssl-dgst(1) or openssl-speed(1) commands.

• -cipher-commands

  This option is deprecated. Use cipher-algorithms instead.

  Display a list of cipher commands, which are typically used as input to the openssl-enc(1) or openssl-speed(1) commands.

• -cipher-algorithms, -digest-algorithms, -kdf-algorithms, -mac-algorithms,

  Display a list of symmetric cipher, digest, kdf and mac algorithms. See "Display of algorithm names" for a description of how names are displayed.

  In verbose mode, the algorithms provided by a provider will get additional information on what parameters each implementation supports.

• -random-instances

  List the primary, public and private random number generator details.

• -random-generators

  Display a list of random number generators. See "Display of algorithm names" for a description of how names are displayed.

• -encoders

  Display a list of encoders. See "Display of algorithm names" for a description of how names are displayed.

  In verbose mode, the algorithms provided by a provider will get additional information on what parameters each implementation supports.

• -decoders

  Display a list of decoders. See "Display of algorithm names" for a description of how names are displayed.

  In verbose mode, the algorithms provided by a provider will get additional information on what parameters each implementation supports.

• -public-key-algorithms

  Display a list of public key algorithms, with each algorithm as a block of multiple lines, all but the first are indented. The options key-exchange-algorithms, kem-algorithms, signature-algorithms, and asymcipher-algorithms will display similar info.

• -public-key-methods

  Display a list of public key methods.

• -key-managers

  Display a list of key managers.

• -key-exchange-algorithms

  Display a list of key exchange algorithms.

• -kem-algorithms

  Display a list of key encapsulation algorithms.

• -signature-algorithms

  Display a list of signature algorithms.

• -asymcipher-algorithms

  Display a list of asymmetric cipher algorithms.

• -store-loaders

  Display a list of store loaders.

• -providers

  Display a list of all loaded providers with their names, version and status.

  In verbose mode, the full version and all provider parameters will additionally be displayed.

• -engines

  This option is deprecated.

  Display a list of loaded engines.

• -disabled

  Display a list of disabled features, those that were compiled out of the installation.

• -objects

  Display a list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names. They're listed in the format described in "ASN1 Object Configuration Module" in config(5).

• -options command

  Output a two-column list of the options accepted by the specified command. The first is the option name, and the second is a one-character indication of what type of parameter it takes, if any. This is an internal option, used for checking that the documentation is complete.

• -provider name

• -provider-path path

• -propquery propq

  See "Provider Options" in openssl(1), provider(7), and property(7).

Display of algorithm names¶

Algorithm names may be displayed in one of two manners:

• Legacy implementations

  Legacy implementations will simply display the main name of the algorithm on a line of its own, or in the form `
