  152. \&\fIRSA_sign()\fR signs the message digest \fBm\fR of size \fBm_len\fR using the
  153. private key \fBrsa\fR as specified in \s-1PKCS\s0 #1 v2.0. It stores the
  154. signature in \fBsigret\fR and the signature size in \fBsiglen\fR. \fBsigret\fR
  155. must point to RSA_size(\fBrsa\fR) bytes of memory.
  156. Note that \s-1PKCS\s0 #1 adds meta-data, placing limits on the size of the
  157. key that can be used.
  158. See \fIRSA_private_encrypt\fR\|(3) for lower-level
  159. operations.
  160. .PP
  161. \&\fBtype\fR denotes the message digest algorithm that was used to generate
  162. \&\fBm\fR. It usually is one of \fBNID_sha1\fR, \fBNID_ripemd160\fR and \fBNID_md5\fR;
  163. see \fIobjects\fR\|(3) for details. If \fBtype\fR is \fBNID_md5_sha1\fR,
  164. an \s-1SSL\s0 signature (\s-1MD5\s0 and \s-1SHA1\s0 message digests with \s-1PKCS\s0 #1 padding
  165. and no algorithm identifier) is created.
  166. .PP
  167. \&\fIRSA_verify()\fR verifies that the signature \fBsigbuf\fR of size \fBsiglen\fR
  168. matches a given message digest \fBm\fR of size \fBm_len\fR. \fBtype\fR denotes
  169. the message digest algorithm that was used to generate the signature.
  170. \&\fBrsa\fR is the signer's public key.
  171. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  172. .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
  173. \&\fIRSA_sign()\fR returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise. \fIRSA_verify()\fR returns 1
  174. on successful verification, 0 otherwise.
