=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The EVP signature routines are a high level interface to digital signatures.
|
||||
Input data is digested first before the signing takes place.
|
||||
|
||||
EVP_DigestSignInit() sets up signing context B<ctx> to use digest B<type> from
|
||||
ENGINE B<e> and private key B<pkey>. B<ctx> must be created with
|
||||
EVP_MD_CTX_new() before calling this function. If B<pctx> is not NULL, the
|
||||
EVP_PKEY_CTX of the signing operation will be written to B<*pctx>: this can
|
||||
be used to set alternative signing options. Note that any existing value in
|
||||
B<*pctx> is overwritten. The EVP_PKEY_CTX value returned must not be freed
|
||||
directly by the application if B<ctx> is not assigned an EVP_PKEY_CTX value before
|
||||
being passed to EVP_DigestSignInit() (which means the EVP_PKEY_CTX is created
|
||||
inside EVP_DigestSignInit() and it will be freed automatically when the
|
||||
EVP_MD_CTX is freed).
|
||||
EVP_DigestSignInit_ex() sets up signing context B<ctx> to use a digest with the
|
||||
name B<mdname> and private key B<pkey>. The signature algorithm B<signature>
|
||||
will be used for the actual signing which must be compatible with the private
|
||||
key. The name of the digest to be used is passed to the provider of the
|
||||
signature algorithm in use. How that provider interprets the digest name is
|
||||
provider specific. The provider may implement that digest directly itself or it
|
||||
may (optionally) choose to fetch it (which could result in a digest from a
|
||||
different provider being selected). If the provider supports fetching the digest
|
||||
then it may use the B<props> argument for the properties to be used during the
|
||||
fetch.
|
||||
|
||||
The digest B<type> may be NULL if the signing algorithm supports it.
|
||||
The B<signature> parameter may be NULL in which case a suitable signature
|
||||
algorithm implementation will be implicitly fetched based on the type of key in
|
||||
use. See L<provider(7)> for further information about providers and fetching
|
||||
algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
No B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> will be created by EVP_DigestSignInit() if the passed B<ctx>
|
||||
has already been assigned one via L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_ctx(3)>. See also L<SM2(7)>.
|
||||
The OpenSSL default and legacy providers support fetching digests and can fetch
|
||||
those digests from any available provider. The OpenSSL fips provider also
|
||||
supports fetching digests but will only fetch digests that are themselves
|
||||
implemented inside the fips provider.
|
||||
|
||||
B<ctx> must be created with EVP_MD_CTX_new() before calling this function. If
|
||||
B<pctx> is not NULL, the EVP_PKEY_CTX of the signing operation will be written
|
||||
to B<*pctx>: this can be used to set alternative signing options. Note that any
|
||||
existing value in B<*pctx> is overwritten. The EVP_PKEY_CTX value returned must
|
||||
not be freed directly by the application if B<ctx> is not assigned an
|
||||
EVP_PKEY_CTX value before being passed to EVP_DigestSignInit_ex() (which means
|
||||
the EVP_PKEY_CTX is created inside EVP_DigestSignInit_ex() and it will be freed
|
||||
automatically when the EVP_MD_CTX is freed).
|
||||
|
||||
The digest B<mdname> may be NULL if the signing algorithm supports it. The
|
||||
B<props> argument can always be NULL.
|
||||
|
||||
No B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> will be created by EVP_DigestSignInit_ex() if the passed
|
||||
B<ctx> has already been assigned one via L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_ctx(3)>. See also

L<SM2(7)>.
