=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/dsa.h>
Clarify the deprecation warnings in the docs There was recently an instance where a user was confused by the deprecation warnings in the docs. They believed the warning applied to the immediately preceding function declarations, when it fact it applied to the following function declarations. https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-users/2021-December/014665.html We clarify the wording to make it clear that the warning applies to the following functions.

The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,

Deprecate the low level Diffie-Hellman functions. Use of the low level DH functions has been informally discouraged for a long time. We now formally deprecate them. Reviewed-by: Richard Levitte <levitte@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/11024)

doc/man3: reformat the function prototypes in the synopses I tried hard to keep the lines at 80 characters or less, but in a few cases I had to punt and just indented the subsequent lines by 4 spaces. A few well-placed typedefs for callback functions would really help, but these would be part of the API, so that's probably for later. I also took the liberty of inserting empty lines in overlong blocks to provide some visual space.

The function described on this page is deprecated. There is no direct
replacement, applications should use the EVP_PKEY APIs for Diffie-Hellman
operations.

DSA_dup_DH() duplicates DSA parameters/keys as DH parameters/keys. q
is lost during that conversion, but the resulting DH parameters
contain its length.
