give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

Title "ASN1_ITEM_SIGN 3" For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.

The data that is signed is formed by taking the data object in data and converting it to der format using the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure it. The data that will be signed, and a structure containing the signature may both have a copy of the X509_ALGOR. The ASN1_item_sign_ex() function will write the correct X509_ALGOR to the structs based on the algorithms and parameters that have been set up. If one of algor1 or algor2 points to the \fBX509_ALGOR of the data to be signed, then that X509_ALGOR will first be written before the signature is generated. Examples of valid values that can be used by the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure it are ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509_CINF), ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509_REQ_INFO) and ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509_CRL_INFO). The \s-1OSSL_LIB_CTX\s0 specified in libctx and the property query string specified in props are used when searching for algorithms in providers. The generated signature is set into signature. The optional parameter id can be \s-1NULL,\s0 but can be set for special key types. See EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id() for further info. The output parameters <algor1> and \fIalgor2 are ignored if they are \s-1NULL.\s0

\fBASN1_item_sign() is similar to ASN1_item_sign_ex() but uses default values of \s-1NULL\s0 for the id, libctx and propq.

\fBASN1_item_sign_ctx() is similar to ASN1_item_sign() but uses the parameters contained in digest context ctx.

\fBASN1_item_verify_ex() is used to verify the signature signature of internal data data using the public key pkey and algorithm identifier alg. The data that is verified is formed by taking the data object in data and converting it to der format using the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure it. The \s-1OSSL_LIB_CTX\s0 specified in libctx and the property query string specified in props are used when searching for algorithms in providers. The optional parameter id can be \s-1NULL,\s0 but can be set for special key types. See EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id() for further info.

\fBASN1_item_verify() is similar to ASN1_item_verify_ex() but uses default values of \s-1NULL\s0 for the id, libctx and propq.

\fBASN1_item_verify_ctx() is similar to ASN1_item_verify() but uses the parameters contained in digest context ctx.

Header "RETURN VALUES" All sign functions return the size of the signature in bytes for success and zero for failure.

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.

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.
