The EVP signature routines are a high level interface to digital
signatures.
EVP_SignInit_ex() sets up signing context B<ctx> to use digest
B<type> from ENGINE B<impl>. B<ctx> must be created with
EVP_SignInit_ex() sets up signing context I<ctx> to use digest
I<type> from B<ENGINE> I<impl>. I<ctx> must be created with
EVP_MD_CTX_new() before calling this function.
EVP_SignUpdate() hashes B<cnt> bytes of data at B<d> into the
signature context B<ctx>. This function can be called several times on the
same B<ctx> to include additional data.
EVP_SignUpdate() hashes I<cnt> bytes of data at I<d> into the
signature context I<ctx>. This function can be called several times on the
same I<ctx> to include additional data.
EVP_SignFinal() signs the data in B<ctx> using the private key B<pkey> and
places the signature in B<sig>. B<sig> must be at least C<EVP_PKEY_size(pkey)>
bytes in size. B<s> is an OUT parameter, and not used as an IN parameter.
EVP_SignFinal() signs the data in I<ctx> using the private key I<pkey> and
places the signature in I<sig>. I<sig> must be at least C<EVP_PKEY_size(pkey)>
bytes in size. I<s> is an OUT parameter, and not used as an IN parameter.
The number of bytes of data written (i.e. the length of the signature)
will be written to the integer at B<s>, at most C<EVP_PKEY_size(pkey)> bytes
will be written to the integer at I<s>, at most C<EVP_PKEY_size(pkey)> bytes
will be written.
EVP_SignInit() initializes a signing context B<ctx> to use the default
