.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBASN1_item_sign_ex()\fR is used to sign arbitrary \s-1ASN1\s0 data using a data object
\&\fIdata\fR, the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure \fIit\fR, private key \fIpkey\fR and message digest \fImd\fR.
The data that is signed is formed by taking the data object in \fIdata\fR and
converting it to der format using the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure \fIit\fR.
The \fIdata\fR that will be signed, and a structure containing the signature may
both have a copy of the \fBX509_ALGOR\fR. The \fBASN1_item_sign_ex()\fR function will
write the correct \fBX509_ALGOR\fR to the structs based on the algorithms and
parameters that have been set up. If one of \fIalgor1\fR or \fIalgor2\fR points to the
\&\fBX509_ALGOR\fR of the \fIdata\fR to be signed, then that \fBX509_ALGOR\fR will first be
written before the signature is generated.
Examples of valid values that can be used by the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure \fIit\fR are
ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509_CINF), ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509_REQ_INFO) and
ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509_CRL_INFO).
The \fB\s-1OSSL_LIB_CTX\s0\fR specified in \fIlibctx\fR and the property query string
specified in \fIprops\fR are used when searching for algorithms in providers.
The generated signature is set into \fIsignature\fR.
The optional parameter \fIid\fR can be \s-1NULL,\s0 but can be set for special key types.
See \fBEVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id()\fR for further info. The output parameters <algor1> and
\&\fIalgor2\fR are ignored if they are \s-1NULL.\s0
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_sign()\fR is similar to \fBASN1_item_sign_ex()\fR but uses default values of
\&\s-1NULL\s0 for the \fIid\fR, \fIlibctx\fR and \fIpropq\fR.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_sign_ctx()\fR is similar to \fBASN1_item_sign()\fR but uses the parameters
contained in digest context \fIctx\fR.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_verify_ex()\fR is used to verify the signature \fIsignature\fR of internal
data \fIdata\fR using the public key \fIpkey\fR and algorithm identifier \fIalg\fR.
The data that is verified is formed by taking the data object in \fIdata\fR and
converting it to der format using the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure \fIit\fR.
The \fB\s-1OSSL_LIB_CTX\s0\fR specified in \fIlibctx\fR and the property query string
specified in \fIprops\fR are used when searching for algorithms in providers.
The optional parameter \fIid\fR can be \s-1NULL,\s0 but can be set for special key types.
See \fBEVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id()\fR for further info.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_verify()\fR is similar to \fBASN1_item_verify_ex()\fR but uses default values of
\&\s-1NULL\s0 for the \fIid\fR, \fIlibctx\fR and \fIpropq\fR.

\&\fBASN1_item_verify_ctx()\fR is similar to \fBASN1_item_verify()\fR but uses the parameters

.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
All sign functions return the size of the signature in bytes for success and
zero for failure.
.PP
All verify functions return 1 if the signature is valid and 0 if the signature
check fails. If the signature could not be checked at all because it was
ill-formed or some other error occurred then \-1 is returned.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.IX Header "EXAMPLES"
In the following example a 'MyObject' object is signed using the key contained
in an \s-1EVP_MD_CTX.\s0 The signature is written to MyObject.signature. The object is
then output in \s-1DER\s0 format and then loaded back in and verified.
