[openssl-users] Engine NID_sha512

Hello
I’m trying to write an engine that implements message digest functions – specifically: sha256, sha384 and sha512. The first two work as expected, I can intercept calls to update() and final() but for sha512 it doesn’t work. From the below program output you can see that my digest_meths method is invoked as expected for sha256 and sha384 (invoked with nid 672 and 673) but nothing for sha512 even though I supply NID_sha512 in my supported_nids array. I’ve unsuccessfully tried to search for a solution to this – so any input would be greatly appreciated.  How can I hook sha512 from my engine?
Relevant Openssl version:  OpenSSL 1.0.2o  27 Mar 2018,
Kind Regards
Christian



My digest_meths function:

static int engine_digest_meths(ENGINE *e, const EVP_MD **digest, const int **nids, int nid)
{
                             // Avoid compiler warning
                             (void)(e);

                             if (!digest)
                             {
                                                          static int supported_nids[] = {NID_sha256, NID_sha384, NID_sha512, 0};
                                                          *nids = supported_nids;
                                                          return 2;
                             }

                             static EVP_MD newEVP_MDmethods;
                             if (nid == NID_sha256 || nid == NID_sha384 || nid == NID_sha512)
                             {
                                                          debug_print("SSLEngine: engine_digest_meths called, nid: %i \n", nid);
