9Support for computing ECDSA signatures.
10See L<EVP_PKEY-EC(7)> for information related to EC keys.

12=head2 ECDSA Signature Parameters
13
14The following signature parameters can be set using EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params().
15This may be called after EVP_PKEY_sign_init() or EVP_PKEY_verify_init(),
16and before calling EVP_PKEY_sign() or EVP_PKEY_verify().
