.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
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'.

"DESCRIPTION"
Header "DESCRIPTION" The \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 type is a structure used for the provision of custom \s-1DSA\s0 implementations. It provides a set of functions used by OpenSSL for the implementation of the various \s-1DSA\s0 capabilities. See the dsa page for more information.

\fBDSA_meth_new() creates a new \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 structure. It should be given a unique name and a set of flags. The name should be a \s-1NULL\s0 terminated string, which will be duplicated and stored in the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 object. It is the callers responsibility to free the original string. The flags will be used during the construction of a new \s-1DSA\s0 object based on this \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0. Any new \s-1DSA\s0 object will have those flags set by default.

\fBDSA_meth_dup() creates a duplicate copy of the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 object passed as a parameter. This might be useful for creating a new \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 based on an existing one, but with some differences.

\fBDSA_meth_free() destroys a \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 structure and frees up any memory associated with it.

\fBDSA_meth_get0_name() will return a pointer to the name of this \s-1DSA_METHOD.\s0 This is a pointer to the internal name string and so should not be freed by the caller. DSA_meth_set1_name() sets the name of the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 to name. The string is duplicated and the copy is stored in the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 structure, so the caller remains responsible for freeing the memory associated with the name.

\fBDSA_meth_get_flags() returns the current value of the flags associated with this \s-1DSA_METHOD.\s0 DSA_meth_set_flags() provides the ability to set these flags.

The functions DSA_meth_get0_app_data() and DSA_meth_set0_app_data() provide the ability to associate implementation specific data with the \s-1DSA_METHOD.\s0 It is the application's responsibility to free this data before the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 is freed via a call to DSA_meth_free().

\fBDSA_meth_get_sign() and DSA_meth_set_sign() get and set the function used for creating a \s-1DSA\s0 signature respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling DSA_do_sign() (or DSA_sign()). The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for DSA_do_sign().

\fBDSA_meth_get_sign_setup() and DSA_meth_set_sign_setup() get and set the function used for precalculating the \s-1DSA\s0 signature values k^-1 and r. This function will be called in response to the application calling DSA_sign_setup(). The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for DSA_sign_setup().

\fBDSA_meth_get_verify() and DSA_meth_set_verify() get and set the function used for verifying a \s-1DSA\s0 signature respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling DSA_do_verify() (or DSA_verify()). The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for DSA_do_verify().

\fBDSA_meth_get_mod_exp() and DSA_meth_set_mod_exp() get and set the function used for computing the following value:

.Vb 1 rr = a1^p1 * a2^p2 mod m .Ve

This function will be called by the default OpenSSL method during verification of a \s-1DSA\s0 signature. The result is stored in the rr parameter. This function may be \s-1NULL.\s0

\fBDSA_meth_get_bn_mod_exp() and DSA_meth_set_bn_mod_exp() get and set the function used for computing the following value:

.Vb 1 r = a ^ p mod m .Ve

This function will be called by the default OpenSSL function for \fBDSA_sign_setup(). The result is stored in the r parameter. This function may be \s-1NULL.\s0

\fBDSA_meth_get_init() and DSA_meth_set_init() get and set the function used for creating a new \s-1DSA\s0 instance respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling DSA_new() (if the current default \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 is this one) or DSA_new_method(). The DSA_new() and DSA_new_method() functions will allocate the memory for the new \s-1DSA\s0 object, and a pointer to this newly allocated structure will be passed as a parameter to the function. This function may be \s-1NULL.\s0

\fBDSA_meth_get_finish() and DSA_meth_set_finish() get and set the function used for destroying an instance of a \s-1DSA\s0 object respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling DSA_free(). A pointer to the \s-1DSA\s0 to be destroyed is passed as a parameter. The destroy function should be used for \s-1DSA\s0 implementation specific clean up. The memory for the \s-1DSA\s0 itself should not be freed by this function. This function may be \s-1NULL.\s0

\fBDSA_meth_get_paramgen() and DSA_meth_set_paramgen() get and set the function used for generating \s-1DSA\s0 parameters respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling DSA_generate_parameters_ex() (or \fBDSA_generate_parameters()). The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for DSA_generate_parameters_ex().

\fBDSA_meth_get_keygen() and DSA_meth_set_keygen() get and set the function used for generating a new \s-1DSA\s0 key pair respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling DSA_generate_key(). The parameter for the function has the same meaning as for DSA_generate_key().

"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBDSA_meth_new() and DSA_meth_dup() return the newly allocated \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 object or \s-1NULL\s0 on failure.

\fBDSA_meth_get0_name() and DSA_meth_get_flags() return the name and flags associated with the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 respectively.

All other DSA_meth_get_*() functions return the appropriate function pointer that has been set in the \s-1DSA_METHOD,\s0 or \s-1NULL\s0 if no such pointer has yet been set.

\fBDSA_meth_set1_name() and all DSA_meth_set_*() functions return 1 on success or 0 on failure.
