=head1 DESCRIPTION
This documentation is primarily aimed at provider authors. See L<provider(7)>
for further information.
The signature (OSSL_OP_SIGNATURE) operation enables providers to implement
signature algorithms and make them available to applications via the API
functions L<EVP_PKEY_sign(3)>,
L<EVP_PKEY_verify(3)>,
and L<EVP_PKEY_verify_recover(3)> (as well
as other related functions).
All "functions" mentioned here are passed as function pointers between
F<libcrypto> and the provider in L<OSSL_DISPATCH(3)> arrays via
L<OSSL_ALGORITHM(3)> arrays that are returned by the provider's
provider_query_operation() function
(see L<provider-base(7)/Provider Functions>).
All these "functions" have a corresponding function type definition
named B<OSSL_FUNC_{name}_fn>, and a helper function to retrieve the
function pointer from an L<OSSL_DISPATCH(3)> element named
B<OSSL_FUNC_{name}>.
For example, the "function" OSSL_FUNC_signature_newctx() has these:
typedef void *(OSSL_FUNC_signature_newctx_fn)(void *provctx, const char *propq);
static ossl_inline OSSL_FUNC_signature_newctx_fn
OSSL_FUNC_signature_newctx(const OSSL_DISPATCH *opf);
L<OSSL_DISPATCH(3)> arrays are indexed by numbers that are provided as
macros in L<openssl-core_dispatch.h(7)>, as follows:
OSSL_FUNC_signature_newctx OSSL_FUNC_SIGNATURE_NEWCTX
OSSL_FUNC_signature_freectx OSSL_FUNC_SIGNATURE_FREECTX

A signature algorithm implementation may not implement all of these functions.
In order to be a consistent set of functions we must have at least a set of
context functions (OSSL_FUNC_signature_newctx and OSSL_FUNC_signature_freectx) as well as a
set of "signature" functions, i.e. at least one of:

OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params and OSSL_FUNC_signature_settable_ctx_params are optional,
but if one of them is present then the other one must also be present. The same
applies to OSSL_FUNC_signature_get_ctx_params and OSSL_FUNC_signature_gettable_ctx_params, as
well as the "md_params" functions. The OSSL_FUNC_signature_dupctx function is optional.
A signature algorithm must also implement some mechanism for generating,
loading or importing keys via the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation.
See L<provider-keymgmt(7)> for further details.
=head2 Context Management Functions
OSSL_FUNC_signature_newctx() should create and return a pointer to a provider side
structure for holding context information during a signature operation.
A pointer to this context will be passed back in a number of the other signature
operation function calls.
The parameter I<provctx> is the provider context generated during provider
initialisation (see L<provider(7)>). The I<propq> parameter is a property query
string that may be (optionally) used by the provider during any "fetches" that
it may perform (if it performs any).
OSSL_FUNC_signature_freectx() is passed a pointer to the provider side signature
context in the I<ctx> parameter.
This function should free any resources associated with that context.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_dupctx() should duplicate the provider side signature context in
the I<ctx> parameter and return the duplicate copy.
=head2 Signing Functions
OSSL_FUNC_signature_sign_init() initialises a context for signing given a provider side
signature context in the I<ctx> parameter, and a pointer to a provider key object
in the I<provkey> parameter.
The I<params>, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
using OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params().
The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see
provider-keymgmt(7)>.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_sign() performs the actual signing itself.
A previously initialised signature context is passed in the I<ctx>
parameter.
The data to be signed is pointed to be the I<tbs> parameter which is I<tbslen>
bytes long.
Unless I<sig> is NULL, the signature should be written to the location pointed
to by the I<sig> parameter and it should not exceed I<sigsize> bytes in length.
The length of the signature should be written to I<*siglen>.
If I<sig> is NULL then the maximum length of the signature should be written to
I<*siglen>.
=head2 Verify Functions
OSSL_FUNC_signature_verify_init() initialises a context for verifying a signature given
a provider side signature context in the I<ctx> parameter, and a pointer to a
provider key object in the I<provkey> parameter.
The I<params>, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
using OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params().
The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see
provider-keymgmt(7)>.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_verify() performs the actual verification itself.
A previously initialised signature context is passed in the I<ctx> parameter.
The data that the signature covers is pointed to be the I<tbs> parameter which
is I<tbslen> bytes long.
The signature is pointed to by the I<sig> parameter which is I<siglen> bytes
long.
=head2 Verify Recover Functions
OSSL_FUNC_signature_verify_recover_init() initialises a context for recovering the
signed data given a provider side signature context in the I<ctx> parameter, and
a pointer to a provider key object in the I<provkey> parameter.
The I<params>, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
using OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params().
The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see
provider-keymgmt(7)>.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_verify_recover() performs the actual verify recover itself.
A previously initialised signature context is passed in the I<ctx> parameter.
The signature is pointed to by the I<sig> parameter which is I<siglen> bytes
long.
Unless I<rout> is NULL, the recovered data should be written to the location
pointed to by I<rout> which should not exceed I<routsize> bytes in length.
The length of the recovered data should be written to I<*routlen>.
If I<rout> is NULL then the maximum size of the output buffer is written to
the I<routlen> parameter.
=head2 Digest Sign Functions
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digeset_sign_init() initialises a context for signing given a
provider side signature context in the I<ctx> parameter, and a pointer to a
provider key object in the I<provkey> parameter.
The I<params>, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
using OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params() and
OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_md_params().
The key object should have been
previously generated, loaded or imported into the provider using the
key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see provider-keymgmt(7)>.
The name of the digest to be used will be in the I<mdname> parameter.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_sign_update() provides data to be signed in the I<data>
parameter which should be of length I<datalen>. A previously initialised
signature context is passed in the I<ctx> parameter. This function may be called
multiple times to cumulatively add data to be signed.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_sign_final() finalises a signature operation previously
started through OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_sign_init() and
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_sign_update() calls. Once finalised no more data will be
added through OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_sign_update(). A previously initialised
signature context is passed in the I<ctx> parameter. Unless I<sig> is NULL, the
signature should be written to the location pointed to by the I<sig> parameter
and it should not exceed I<sigsize> bytes in length. The length of the signature
should be written to I<*siglen>. If I<sig> is NULL then the maximum length of
the signature should be written to I<*siglen>.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_sign() implements a "one shot" digest sign operation
previously started through OSSL_FUNC_signature_digeset_sign_init(). A previously
initialised signature context is passed in the I<ctx> parameter. The data to be
signed is in I<tbs> which should be I<tbslen> bytes long. Unless I<sig> is NULL,
the signature should be written to the location pointed to by the I<sig>
parameter and it should not exceed I<sigsize> bytes in length. The length of the
signature should be written to I<*siglen>. If I<sig> is NULL then the maximum
length of the signature should be written to I<*siglen>.
=head2 Digest Verify Functions
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digeset_verify_init() initialises a context for verifying given a
provider side verification context in the I<ctx> parameter, and a pointer to a
provider key object in the I<provkey> parameter.
The I<params>, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params() and
OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_md_params().
The key object should have been
previously generated, loaded or imported into the provider using the
key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see provider-keymgmt(7)>.
The name of the digest to be used will be in the I<mdname> parameter.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_verify_update() provides data to be verified in the I<data>
parameter which should be of length I<datalen>. A previously initialised
verification context is passed in the I<ctx> parameter. This function may be
called multiple times to cumulatively add data to be verified.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_verify_final() finalises a verification operation previously
started through OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_verify_init() and
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_verify_update() calls. Once finalised no more data will be
added through OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_verify_update(). A previously initialised
verification context is passed in the I<ctx> parameter. The signature to be
verified is in I<sig> which is I<siglen> bytes long.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_digest_verify() implements a "one shot" digest verify operation
previously started through OSSL_FUNC_signature_digeset_verify_init(). A previously
initialised verification context is passed in the I<ctx> parameter. The data to be
verified is in I<tbs> which should be I<tbslen> bytes long. The signature to be
verified is in I<sig> which is I<siglen> bytes long.
=head2 Signature parameters
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> for further details on the parameters structure used by
the OSSL_FUNC_signature_get_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params() functions.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_get_ctx_params() gets signature parameters associated with the
given provider side signature context I<ctx> and stored them in I<params>.
Passing NULL for I<params> should return true.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params() sets the signature parameters associated with the
given provider side signature context I<ctx> to I<params>.
Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set.
Passing NULL for I<params> should return true.
Common parameters currently recognised by built-in signature algorithms are as
follows.
=over 4
=item "digest" (B<OSSL_SIGNATURE_PARAM_DIGEST>) <UTF8 string>
Get or sets the name of the digest algorithm used for the input to the
signature functions. It is required in order to calculate the "algorithm-id".
=item "properties" (B<OSSL_SIGNATURE_PARAM_PROPERTIES>) <UTF8 string>
Sets the name of the property query associated with the "digest" algorithm.
NULL is used if this optional value is not set.
=item "digest-size" (B<OSSL_SIGNATURE_PARAM_DIGEST_SIZE>) <unsigned integer>
Gets or sets the output size of the digest algorithm used for the input to the
signature functions.
The length of the "digest-size" parameter should not exceed that of a B<size_t>.
=item "algorithm-id" (B<OSSL_SIGNATURE_PARAM_ALGORITHM_ID>) <octet string>
Gets the DER encoded AlgorithmIdentifier that corresponds to the combination of
signature algorithm and digest algorithm for the signature operation.
=item "kat" (B<OSSL_SIGNATURE_PARAM_KAT>) <unsigned integer>
Sets a flag to modify the sign operation to return an error if the initial
calculated signature is invalid.
In the normal mode of operation - new random values are chosen until the
signature operation succeeds.
By default it retries until a signature is calculated.
Setting the value to 0 causes the sign operation to retry,
otherwise the sign operation is only tried once and returns whether or not it
was successful.
Known answer tests can be performed if the random generator is overridden to
supply known values that either pass or fail.
=back
OSSL_FUNC_signature_gettable_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_signature_settable_ctx_params() get a
constant L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> array that describes the gettable and settable parameters,
i.e. parameters that can be used with OSSL_FUNC_signature_get_ctx_params() and
OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ctx_params() respectively.
=head2 MD parameters
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> for further details on the parameters structure used by
the OSSL_FUNC_signature_get_md_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_md_ctx_params()
functions.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_get_md_ctx_params() gets digest parameters associated with the
given provider side digest signature context I<ctx> and stores them in I<params>.
Passing NULL for I<params> should return true.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_ms_ctx_params() sets the digest parameters associated with the
given provider side digest signature context I<ctx> to I<params>.
Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set.
Passing NULL for I<params> should return true.
Parameters currently recognised by built-in signature algorithms are the same
as those for built-in digest algorithms. See
L<provider-digest(7)/Digest Parameters> for further information.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_gettable_md_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_signature_settable_md_ctx_params()
get a constant L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> array that describes the gettable and settable
digest parameters, i.e. parameters that can be used with
OSSL_FUNC_signature_get_md_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_signature_set_md_ctx_params()
respectively.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
OSSL_FUNC_signature_newctx() and OSSL_FUNC_signature_dupctx() should return the newly created
provider side signature context, or NULL on failure.
OSSL_FUNC_signature_gettable_ctx_params(), OSSL_FUNC_signature_settable_ctx_params(),
OSSL_FUNC_signature_gettable_md_ctx_params() and OSSL_FUNC_signature_settable_md_ctx_params(),
return the gettable or settable parameters in a constant L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> array.
All other functions should return 1 for success or 0 on error.
