I would like to know if OpenSSL and FIPS new versions (like OpenSSL 1.0.2g, FIPS 2.0.12 etc.) support the *truncated versions of SHA 512 namely SHA 512/224 or SHA 512/256*. (Acknowledging that OpenSSL does support SHA 512)
I do not know the technical difference between SHA 512 and SHA 512/256 (except a vague conceptual overview that the initialisation vector would be different for the truncated SHA 512/256 as compared to SHA 512 and that the real hash length will be only 256 for SHA 512/256). Or.... could it be assumed that an SHA 512 implementation has innate support for the truncated version like SHA 512/256 ? And so, it does hold good for OpenSSL too?
