Hello,

I am wondering whether it is permitted to call EVP_DigestFinal_ex multiple 
times on the same context in order to retrieve the same digest twice. I 
expected OpenSSL to fail with an error code, but SHA256 seems to permit it 
whereas SHA3 seems to cause a segmentation fault. The documentation does not 
explicitely forbid or allow it, so I am wondering where this should be 
addressed: In the implementation of EVP_*, in SHA2, in SHA3, in the 
documentation, or not at all?

Thank you in advance!
Tobias
