DSA_DO_SIGN(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual DSA_DO_SIGN(3)
NAME
DSA_do_sign, DSA_do_verify - raw DSA signature operations
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/dsa.h>
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
DSA_do_sign() computes a digital signature on the dlen 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 dgst_len. dsa is the signer's public key.
RETURN VALUES
DSA_do_sign() returns the signature or 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
DSA_do_sign() and DSA_do_verify() first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.3 and
have been available since OpenBSD 2.6.
