202 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
203 These functions implement the Digital Signature Algorithm (\s-1DSA\s0). The
204 generation of shared \s-1DSA\s0 parameters is described in
205 \&\fIDSA_generate_parameters\fR\|(3);
206 \&\fIDSA_generate_key\fR\|(3) describes how to
207 generate a signature key. Signature generation and verification are
208 described in \fIDSA_sign\fR\|(3).
210 The \fB\s-1DSA\s0\fR structure consists of several \s-1BIGNUM\s0 components.
215 \& BIGNUM *p; // prime number (public)
216 \& BIGNUM *q; // 160\-bit subprime, q | p\-1 (public)
217 \& BIGNUM *g; // generator of subgroup (public)
218 \& BIGNUM *priv_key; // private key x
219 \& BIGNUM *pub_key; // public key y = g^x
225 In public keys, \fBpriv_key\fR is \s-1NULL.\s0
227 Note that \s-1DSA\s0 keys may use non-standard \fB\s-1DSA_METHOD\s0\fR implementations,
228 either directly or by the use of \fB\s-1ENGINE\s0\fR modules. In some cases (eg. an
229 \&\s-1ENGINE\s0 providing support for hardware-embedded keys), these \s-1BIGNUM\s0 values
230 will not be used by the implementation or may be used for alternative data
231 storage. For this reason, applications should generally avoid using \s-1DSA\s0
232 structure elements directly and instead use \s-1API\s0 functions to query or
