5DSA_do_sign, DSA_do_verify - raw DSA signature operations
6
7=head1 SYNOPSIS
8
9 #include <openssl/dsa.h>
10
11The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
12hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
13see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
14
15 DSA_SIG *DSA_do_sign(const unsigned char *dgst, int dlen, DSA *dsa);
16
17 int DSA_do_verify(const unsigned char *dgst, int dgst_len,
18                   DSA_SIG *sig, DSA *dsa);
19
20=head1 DESCRIPTION
21
22All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
23Applications should instead use L<EVP_PKEY_sign_init(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_sign(3)>,
24L<EVP_PKEY_verify_init(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_verify(3)>.
25
26DSA_do_sign() computes a digital signature on the B<len> byte message
27digest B<dgst> using the private key B<dsa> and returns it in a
28newly allocated B<DSA_SIG> structure.
29
30L<DSA_sign_setup(3)> may be used to precompute part
31of the signing operation in case signature generation is
32time-critical.
33
34DSA_do_verify() verifies that the signature B<sig> matches a given
35message digest B<dgst> of size B<len>.  B<dsa> is the signer's public
36key.
37
38=head1 RETURN VALUES
39
40DSA_do_sign() returns the signature, NULL on error.  DSA_do_verify()
41returns 1 for a valid signature, 0 for an incorrect signature and -1
42on error. The error codes can be obtained by
43L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
