DESCRIPTION
These functions implement the Digital Signature Algorithm
(DSA). The generation of shared DSA parameters is
described in DSA_generate_parameters(3);
DSA_generate_key(3) describes how to generate a signature
key. Signature generation and verification are described
in DSA_sign(3).
The DSA structure consists of several BIGNUM components.
struct
{
BIGNUM *p; // prime number (public)
BIGNUM *q; // 160-bit subprime, q | p-1 (public)
BIGNUM *g; // generator of subgroup (public)
BIGNUM *priv_key; // private key x
BIGNUM *pub_key; // public key y = g^x
// ...
}
DSA;
In public keys, priv_key is NULL.
