I understand.

In SecurityProviderConstants::getAliases, is it possible to combine 
aliases.get(o) and OidString.findMatch(o)? Or we can rewrite store() and grab 
info from OidString so that there is no need to always add OID.oid and oid in 
the store() calls.

Inside getAliases(), why must there be an exception when there is no 
OidString.findMatch(o)? Does every algorithm name need an OID? I thought of 
X.509 but you have added it into aliases.

Sorry, I got it wrong. I've mistakenly thought that OidString.DSA.value() is 
the name.
