DESCRIPTION
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
Applications and extension implementations should instead use the
OSSL_PROVIDER APIs.
The DSA_METHOD type is a structure used for the provision of custom DSA
implementations. It provides a set of functions used by OpenSSL for the
implementation of the various DSA capabilities.
DSA_meth_new() creates a new DSA_METHOD structure. It should be given a
unique name and a set of flags. The name should be a NULL terminated
string, which will be duplicated and stored in the DSA_METHOD object.
It is the callers responsibility to free the original string. The flags
will be used during the construction of a new DSA object based on this
DSA_METHOD. Any new DSA object will have those flags set by default.
DSA_meth_dup() creates a duplicate copy of the DSA_METHOD object passed
as a parameter. This might be useful for creating a new DSA_METHOD
based on an existing one, but with some differences.
DSA_meth_free() destroys a DSA_METHOD structure and frees up any memory
associated with it.
DSA_meth_get0_name() will return a pointer to the name of this
DSA_METHOD. 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
DSA_METHOD to name. The string is duplicated and the copy is stored in
the DSA_METHOD structure, so the caller remains responsible for freeing
the memory associated with the name.
DSA_meth_get_flags() returns the current value of the flags associated
with this DSA_METHOD. 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
DSA_METHOD. It is the application's responsibility to free this data
before the DSA_METHOD is freed via a call to DSA_meth_free().
DSA_meth_get_sign() and DSA_meth_set_sign() get and set the function
used for creating a DSA 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().
DSA_meth_get_sign_setup() and DSA_meth_set_sign_setup() get and set the
function used for precalculating the DSA 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().
DSA_meth_get_verify() and DSA_meth_set_verify() get and set the
function used for verifying a DSA 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().
DSA_meth_get_mod_exp() and DSA_meth_set_mod_exp() get and set the
function used for computing the following value:
rr = a1^p1 * a2^p2 mod m
This function will be called by the default OpenSSL method during
verification of a DSA signature. The result is stored in the rr
parameter. This function may be NULL.
DSA_meth_get_bn_mod_exp() and DSA_meth_set_bn_mod_exp() get and set the
function used for computing the following value:
r = a ^ p mod m
This function will be called by the default OpenSSL function for
DSA_sign_setup(). The result is stored in the r parameter. This
function may be NULL.
DSA_meth_get_init() and DSA_meth_set_init() get and set the function
used for creating a new DSA instance respectively. This function will
be called in response to the application calling DSA_new() (if the
current default DSA_METHOD is this one) or DSA_new_method(). The
DSA_new() and DSA_new_method() functions will allocate the memory for
the new DSA object, and a pointer to this newly allocated structure
will be passed as a parameter to the function. This function may be
NULL.
DSA_meth_get_finish() and DSA_meth_set_finish() get and set the
function used for destroying an instance of a DSA object respectively.
This function will be called in response to the application calling
DSA_free(). A pointer to the DSA to be destroyed is passed as a
parameter. The destroy function should be used for DSA implementation
specific clean up. The memory for the DSA itself should not be freed by
this function. This function may be NULL.
DSA_meth_get_paramgen() and DSA_meth_set_paramgen() get and set the
function used for generating DSA parameters respectively. This function
will be called in response to the application calling
DSA_generate_parameters_ex() (or DSA_generate_parameters()). The
parameters for the function have the same meaning as for
DSA_generate_parameters_ex().
DSA_meth_get_keygen() and DSA_meth_set_keygen() get and set the
function used for generating a new DSA 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
DSA_meth_new() and DSA_meth_dup() return the newly allocated DSA_METHOD
object or NULL on failure.
DSA_meth_get0_name() and DSA_meth_get_flags() return the name and flags
associated with the DSA_METHOD respectively.
All other DSA_meth_get_*() functions return the appropriate function
pointer that has been set in the DSA_METHOD, or NULL if no such pointer
has yet been set.
DSA_meth_set1_name() and all DSA_meth_set_*() functions return 1 on
success or 0 on failure.
