DSA_DO_SIGN(3ossl) OpenSSL DSA_DO_SIGN(3ossl)
NAME
DSA_do_sign, DSA_do_verify - raw DSA signature operations
SYNOPSIS
#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);
DESCRIPTION
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.
RETURN VALUES
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).

HISTORY
All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
