The documentation in md32_common.h is now (more) correct with respect to the most important details of the layout of |HASH_CTX|. The documentation explaining why sha512.c doesn't use md32_common.h is now more accurate as well. Before, the C implementations of HASH_BLOCK_DATA_ORDER took a pointer to the |HASH_CTX| and the assembly language implementations tool a pointer to the hash state |h| member of |HASH_CTX|. (This worked because |h| is always the first member of |HASH_CTX|.) Now, the C implementations take a pointer directly to |h| too. The definitions of |MD4_CTX|, |MD5_CTX|, and |SHA1_CTX| were changed to be consistent with |SHA256_CTX| and |SHA512_CTX| in storing the hash state in an array. This will break source compatibility with any external code that accesses the hash state directly, but will not affect binary compatibility. The second parameter of |HASH_BLOCK_DATA_ORDER| is now of type |const uint8_t *|; previously it was |void *| and all implementations had a |uint8_t *data| variable to access it as an array of bytes. This change paves the way for future refactorings such as automatically generating the |*_Init| functions and/or sharing one I-U-F implementation across all digest algorithms.

BoringSSL
BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
