DSA_do_sign.3ossl - Man Page

 #include <openssl/dsa.h>

The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be hidden entirely by defining OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable version value, see openssl_user_macros(7):

 DSA_SIG *DSA_do_sign(const unsigned char *dgst, int dlen, DSA *dsa);

 int DSA_do_verify(const unsigned char *dgst, int dgst_len,
                   DSA_SIG *sig, DSA *dsa);

All of the functions described on this page are deprecated. Applications should instead use EVP_PKEY_sign_init(3), EVP_PKEY_sign(3), EVP_PKEY_verify_init(3) and EVP_PKEY_verify(3).

DSA_do_sign() computes a digital signature on the len byte message digest dgst using the private key dsa and returns it in a newly allocated DSA_SIG structure.

DSA_sign_setup(3) may be used to precompute part of the signing operation in case signature generation is time-critical.

DSA_do_verify() verifies that the signature sig matches a given message digest dgst of size len.  dsa is the signer's public key.

DSA_do_sign() returns the signature, NULL on error.  DSA_do_verify() returns 1 for a valid signature, 0 for an incorrect signature and -1 on error. The error codes can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).

DSA_new(3), ERR_get_error(3), RAND_bytes(3), DSA_SIG_new(3), DSA_sign(3)

All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
