147 .IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
149 \& #include <openssl/dsa.h>
151 \& int DSA_sign(int type, const unsigned char *dgst, int len,
152 \& unsigned char *sigret, unsigned int *siglen, DSA *dsa);
154 \& int DSA_sign_setup(DSA *dsa, BN_CTX *ctx, BIGNUM **kinvp,
157 \& int DSA_verify(int type, const unsigned char *dgst, int len,
158 \& unsigned char *sigbuf, int siglen, DSA *dsa);
161 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
162 \&\fIDSA_sign()\fR computes a digital signature on the \fBlen\fR byte message
163 digest \fBdgst\fR using the private key \fBdsa\fR and places its \s-1ASN\s0.1 \s-1DER\s0
164 encoding at \fBsigret\fR. The length of the signature is places in
165 *\fBsiglen\fR. \fBsigret\fR must point to DSA_size(\fBdsa\fR) bytes of memory.
167 \&\fIDSA_sign_setup()\fR may be used to precompute part of the signing
168 operation in case signature generation is time-critical. It expects
169 \&\fBdsa\fR to contain \s-1DSA\s0 parameters. It places the precomputed values
170 in newly allocated \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fRs at *\fBkinvp\fR and *\fBrp\fR, after freeing
171 the old ones unless *\fBkinvp\fR and *\fBrp\fR are \s-1NULL\s0. These values may
172 be passed to \fIDSA_sign()\fR in \fBdsa\->kinv\fR and \fBdsa\->r\fR.
173 \&\fBctx\fR is a pre-allocated \fB\s-1BN_CTX\s0\fR or \s-1NULL\s0.
175 \&\fIDSA_verify()\fR verifies that the signature \fBsigbuf\fR of size \fBsiglen\fR
176 matches a given message digest \fBdgst\fR of size \fBlen\fR.
177 \&\fBdsa\fR is the signer's public key.
179 The \fBtype\fR parameter is ignored.
181 The \s-1PRNG\s0 must be seeded before \fIDSA_sign()\fR (or \fIDSA_sign_setup()\fR)
184 .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
185 \&\fIDSA_sign()\fR and \fIDSA_sign_setup()\fR return 1 on success, 0 on error.
186 \&\fIDSA_verify()\fR returns 1 for a valid signature, 0 for an incorrect
187 signature and \-1 on error. The error codes can be obtained by
188 \&\fIERR_get_error\fR\|(3).
190 .IX Header "CONFORMING TO"
