3.5.0                                              2025-06-04                                     DSA_SIGN(3SSL)

       All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.  Applications should instead use
       EVP_PKEY_sign_init(3), EVP_PKEY_sign(3), EVP_PKEY_verify_init(3) and EVP_PKEY_verify(3).

       DSA_sign() computes a digital signature on the len byte message digest dgst using the private key dsa and
       places its ASN.1 DER encoding at sigret. The length of the signature is places in *siglen. sigret must
       point to DSA_size(dsa) bytes of memory.

       DSA_sign_setup() is defined only for backward binary compatibility and should not be used.  Since OpenSSL
       1.1.0 the DSA type is opaque and the output of DSA_sign_setup() cannot be used anyway: calling this
       function will only cause overhead, and does not affect the actual signature (pre-)computation.

       DSA_verify() verifies that the signature sigbuf of size siglen matches a given message digest dgst of
       size len.  dsa is the signer's public key.

       The type parameter is ignored.

       The random generator must be seeded when DSA_sign() (or DSA_sign_setup()) is called.  If the automatic
       seeding or reseeding of the OpenSSL CSPRNG fails due to external circumstances (see RAND(7)), the
       operation will fail.

       All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.

       DSA_sign, DSA_sign_setup, DSA_verify - DSA signatures

DSA_sign() and DSA_sign_setup() return 1 on success, 0 on error.  DSA_verify() returns 1 for a valid
       signature, 0 for an incorrect signature and -1 on error. The error codes can be obtained by
       ERR_get_error(3).

       The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be hidden entirely by defining
       OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable version value, see openssl_user_macros(7):

        int DSA_sign(int type, const unsigned char *dgst, int len,
                     unsigned char *sigret, unsigned int *siglen, DSA *dsa);

        int DSA_sign_setup(DSA *dsa, BN_CTX *ctx, BIGNUM **kinvp, BIGNUM **rp);

        int DSA_verify(int type, const unsigned char *dgst, int len,
                       unsigned char *sigbuf, int siglen, DSA *dsa);
