The manual pages require for some API functions that the 'random number generator must be seeded' before calling the function. Initially, this was meant literally, i.e. the OpenSSL CSPRNG had to be seeded manually before calling these functions. Since version 1.1.1, the CSPRNG is seeded automatically on first use, so it's not the responsibility of the programmer anymore. Still, he needs to be aware that the seeding might fail.

=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
DSA_sign, DSA_sign_setup, DSA_verify - DSA signatures
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
#include <openssl/dsa.h>
|
|
|
|
int DSA_sign(int type, const unsigned char *dgst, int len,
|
|
unsigned char *sigret, unsigned int *siglen, DSA *dsa);
|
|
|
|
int DSA_sign_setup(DSA *dsa, BN_CTX *ctx, BIGNUM **kinvp, BIGNUM **rp);
|
|
|
|
int DSA_verify(int type, const unsigned char *dgst, int len,
|
|
unsigned char *sigbuf, int siglen, DSA *dsa);
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
DSA_sign() computes a digital signature on the B<len> byte message
|
|
digest B<dgst> using the private key B<dsa> and places its ASN.1 DER
|
|
encoding at B<sigret>. The length of the signature is places in
|
|
*B<siglen>. B<sigret> must point to DSA_size(B<dsa>) bytes of memory.
|
|
|
|
DSA_sign_setup() is defined only for backward binary compatibility and
|
|
should not be used.
|
|
Since OpenSSL 1.1.0 the DSA type is opaque and the output of
|
|
DSA_sign_setup() cannot be used anyway: calling this function will only
|
|
cause overhead, and does not affect the actual signature
|
|
(pre-)computation.
|
|
|
|
DSA_verify() verifies that the signature B<sigbuf> of size B<siglen>
|
|
matches a given message digest B<dgst> of size B<len>.
|
|
B<dsa> is the signer's public key.
|
|
|
|
The B<type> parameter is ignored.
|
|
|
|
The random generator must be seeded when DSA_sign() (or DSA_sign_setup())
|
|
is called.
|
|
If the automatic seeding or reseeding of the OpenSSL CSPRNG fails due to
|
|
external circumstances (see L<RAND(7)>), the operation will fail.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
DSA_sign() and DSA_sign_setup() return 1 on success, 0 on error.
|
|
DSA_verify() returns 1 for a valid signature, 0 for an incorrect
|
|
signature and -1 on error. The error codes can be obtained by
|
|
L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
