.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Fn DSA_sign
computes a digital signature on the
.Fa len
byte message digest
.Fa dgst
using the private key
.Fa dsa
and places its ASN.1 DER encoding at
.Fa sigret .
The length of the signature is placed in
.Pf * Fa siglen .
.Fa sigret
must point to
.Fn DSA_size dsa
bytes of memory.
.Pp
.Fn DSA_sign_setup
may be used to precompute part of the signing operation in case
signature generation is time-critical.
It expects
.Fa dsa
to contain DSA parameters.
It places the precomputed values in newly allocated
.Vt BIGNUM Ns s
at
.Pf * Fa kinvp
and
.Pf * Fa rp ,
after freeing the old ones unless
.Fa kinvp
and
.Fa rp
are
.Dv NULL .
These values may be passed to
.Fn DSA_sign
in
.Fa dsa->kinv
and
.Sy dsa->r .
.Fa ctx
is a pre-allocated
.Vt BN_CTX
or
.Dv NULL .
.Pp
.Fn DSA_verify
verifies that the signature
.Fa sigbuf
of size
.Fa siglen
matches a given message digest
.Fa dgst
of size
.Fa len .
.Fa dsa
is the signer's public key.
.Pp
The
.Fa type
parameter is ignored.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn DSA_sign
and
.Fn DSA_sign_setup
return 1 on success or 0 on error.
.Fn DSA_verify
returns 1 for a valid signature, 0 for an incorrect signature,
and -1 on error.
The error codes can be obtained by
.Xr ERR_get_error 3 .
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr DSA_do_sign 3 ,
.Xr DSA_get0_key 3 ,
.Xr DSA_new 3 ,
.Xr ERR_get_error 3 ,
.Xr RAND_bytes 3
.Sh STANDARDS
US Federal Information Processing Standard FIPS 186 (Digital Signature
Standard, DSS), ANSI X9.30
.Sh HISTORY
.Fn DSA_sign
and
.Fn DSA_verify
first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.0.
.Fn DSA_sign_setup
first appeared in SSLeay 0.8.0.
All these functions have been available since
.Ox 2.4 .
