34 =head1 DESCRIPTION
35
36 This command is used to generate list of algorithms or disabled
37 features.
38
39 =head1 OPTIONS
40
41 =over 4
42
43 =item B<-help>
44
45 Display a usage message.
46
47 =item B<-verbose>
48
49 Displays extra information.
50 The options below where verbosity applies say a bit more about what that means.
51
52 =item B<-1>
53
54 List the commands, digest-commands, or cipher-commands in a single column.
55 If used, this option must be given first.
56
57 =item B<-commands>
58
59 Display a list of standard commands.
60
61 =item B<-digest-commands>
62
63 Display a list of message digest commands, which are typically used
64 as input to the L<openssl-dgst(1)> or L<openssl-speed(1)> commands.
65
66 =item B<-cipher-commands>
67
68 Display a list of cipher commands, which are typically used as input
69 to the L<openssl-dgst(1)> or L<openssl-speed(1)> commands.
70
71 =item B<-digest-algorithms>, B<-kdf-algorithms>, B<-mac-algorithms>,
72 B<-cipher-algorithms>
73
74 Display a list of cipher, digest, kdf and mac algorithms.
75 See L</Display of algorithm names> for a description of how names are
76 displayed.
77
78 In verbose mode, the algorithms provided by a provider will get additional
79 information on what parameters each implementation supports.
80
81 =item B<-random-generators>
82
83 Display a list of random number generators.
84 See L</Display of algorithm names> for a description of how names are
85 displayed.
86
87 =item B<-serializers>
88
89 Display a list of serializers.
90 See L</Display of algorithm names> for a description of how names are
91 displayed.
92
93 In verbose mode, the algorithms provided by a provider will get additional
94 information on what parameters each implementation supports.
95
96 =item B<-deserializers>
97
98 Display a list of deserializers.
99 See L</Display of algorithm names> for a description of how names are
100 displayed.
101
102 In verbose mode, the algorithms provided by a provider will get additional
103 information on what parameters each implementation supports.
104
105 =item B<-public-key-algorithms>
106
107 Display a list of public key algorithms, with each algorithm as
108 a block of multiple lines, all but the first are indented.
109 {- output_off() if $disabled{"deprecated-3.0"}; "" -}
110
111 =item B<-public-key-methods>
112
113 This option is deprecated.
114
115 Display a list of public key method OIDs.
116
117 =item B<-engines>
118
119 This option is deprecated.
120
121 Display a list of loaded engines.
122
123 {- output_on() if $disabled{"deprecated-3.0"}; "" -}
124 =item B<-disabled>
125
126 Display a list of disabled features, those that were compiled out
127 of the installation.
128
129 =item B<-objects>
130
131 Display a list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names. They're listed in the
132 format described in L<config(5)/ASN1 Object Configuration Module>.
133
134 =item B<-options> I<command>
135
136 Output a two-column list of the options accepted by the specified I<command>.
137 The first is the option name, and the second is a one-character indication
138 of what type of parameter it takes, if any.
139 This is an internal option, used for checking that the documentation
140 is complete.
141

145
146 =head2 Display of algorithm names
147
148 Algorithm names may be displayed in one of two manners:
149
150 =over 4
151
152 =item Legacy implementations
153
154 Legacy implementations will simply display the main name of the
155 algorithm on a line of its own, or in the form C<<foo > bar>> to show
156 that C<foo> is an alias for the main name, C<bar>
157
158 =item Provided implementations
159
160 Implementations from a provider are displayed like this if the
161 implementation is labeled with a single name:
162
163 foo @ bar
164
165 or like this if it's labeled with multiple names:
166
167 { foo1, foo2 } @bar
168
169 In both cases, C<bar> is the name of the provider.

173 =head1 HISTORY
174
175 The B<-engines> and B<-public-key-methods> options were deprecated in
176 OpenSSL 3.0.
