=head1 DESCRIPTION
The SRP functions described on this page are used to calculate various
parameters and keys used by SRP as defined in RFC2945. The server key and I<B>
and I<u> parameters are used on the server side and are calculated via
SRP_Calc_server_key(), SRP_Calc_B_ex(), SRP_Calc_B(), SRP_Calc_u_ex() and
SRP_Calc_u(). The client key and B<x> and B<A> parameters are used on the
client side and are calculated via the functions SRP_Calc_client_key_ex(),
SRP_Calc_client_key(), SRP_Calc_x_ex(), SRP_Calc_x() and SRP_Calc_A(). See
RFC2945 for a detailed description of their usage and the meaning of the various
BIGNUM parameters to these functions.
Most of these functions come in two forms. Those that take a I<libctx> and
I<propq> parameter, and those that don't. Any cryptogrpahic functions that
are fetched and used during the calculation use the provided I<libctx> and
I<propq>. See L<provider(7)/Fetching algorithms> for more details. The variants
that do not take a I<libctx> and I<propq> parameter use the default library
context and property query string. The SRP_Calc_server_key() and SRP_Calc_A()
functions do not have a form that takes I<libctx> or I<propq> parameters because
they do not need to fetch any cryptographic algorithms.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
All these functions return the calculated key or parameter, or NULL on error.

L<SRP_VBASE_new(3)>,
L<SRP_user_pwd_new(3)>
=head1 HISTORY
These functions were added in OpenSSL 1.0.1.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
The SRP_create_verifier_BN() function creates an SRP password verifier from
the supplied parameters as defined in section 2.4 of RFC 5054.
On successful exit B<*verifier> will point to a newly allocated BIGNUM containing
the verifier and (if a salt was not provided) B<*salt> will be populated with a
newly allocated BIGNUM containing a random salt. If B<*salt> is not NULL then
The SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex() function creates an SRP password verifier from
the supplied parameters as defined in section 2.4 of RFC 5054 using the library
context I<libctx> and property query string I<propq>. Any cryptographic
algorithms that need to be fetched will use the I<libctx> and I<propq>. See
L<provider(7)/Fetching algorithms>.
SRP_create_verifier_BN() is the same as SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex() except the
default library context and property query string is used.
On successful exit I<*verifier> will point to a newly allocated BIGNUM containing
the verifier and (if a salt was not provided) I<*salt> will be populated with a
newly allocated BIGNUM containing a random salt. If I<*salt> is not NULL then
the provided salt is used instead.
The caller is responsible for freeing the allocated B<*salt> and B<*verifier>
The caller is responsible for freeing the allocated I<*salt> and I<*verifier>
BIGNUMS (use L<BN_free(3)>).
The SRP_create_verifier() function is similar to SRP_create_verifier_BN() but
all numeric parameters are in a non-standard base64 encoding originally designed
for compatibility with libsrp. This is mainly present for historical compatibility
and its use is discouraged.
It is possible to pass NULL as B<N> and an SRP group id as B<g> instead to
It is possible to pass NULL as I<N> and an SRP group id as I<g> instead to
load the appropriate gN values (see SRP_get_default_gN()).
If both B<N> and B<g> are NULL the 8192-bit SRP group parameters are used.
The caller is responsible for freeing the allocated B<*salt> and B<*verifier>
If both I<N> and I<g> are NULL the 8192-bit SRP group parameters are used.
The caller is responsible for freeing the allocated I<*salt> and I<*verifier>
(use L<OPENSSL_free(3)>).
The SRP_check_known_gN_param() function checks that B<g> and B<N> are valid
The SRP_check_known_gN_param() function checks that I<g> and I<N> are valid
SRP group parameters from RFC 5054 appendix A.
The SRP_get_default_gN() function returns the gN parameters for the RFC 5054 B<id>
The SRP_get_default_gN() function returns the gN parameters for the RFC 5054 I<id>
SRP group size.
The known ids are "1024", "1536", "2048", "3072", "4096", "6144" and "8192".
=head1 RETURN VALUES
SRP_create_verifier_BN() returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.
SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex() and SRP_create_verifier_BN() return 1 on success and
0 on failure.
SRP_create_verifier() returns NULL on failure and a non-NULL value on success:

SRP_create_verifier_ex() and SRP_create_verifier() return NULL on failure and a
non-NULL value on success:
"*" if I<N> is not NULL, the selected group id otherwise. This value should
not be freed.
SRP_check_known_gN_param() returns the text representation of the group id
(ie. the prime bit size) or NULL if the arguments are not valid SRP group parameters.
This value should not be freed.
SRP_get_default_gN() returns NULL if B<id> is not a valid group size,
or the 8192-bit group parameters if B<id> is NULL.
SRP_get_default_gN() returns NULL if I<id> is not a valid group size,
