=head1 NAME
EVP_PKEY-DSA, EVP_KEYMGMT-DSA - EVP_PKEY DSA keytype and algorithm support
=head1 DESCRIPTION
For B<DSA> the FIPS 186-4 standard specifies that the values used for FFC
parameter generation are also required for parameter validation.
This means that optional FFC domain parameter values for I<seed>, I<pcounter>
and I<gindex> may need to be stored for validation purposes. For B<DSA> these
fields are not stored in the ASN1 data so they need to be stored externally if
validation is required.
As part of FIPS 140-3 DSA is not longer FIPS approved for key generation and
signature validation, but is still allowed for signature verification.
=head2 DSA parameters
The B<DSA> key type supports the FFC parameters (see
L<EVP_PKEY-FFC(7)/FFC parameters>).
It also supports the following parameters:
=over 4
=item "sign-check" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FIPS_SIGN_CHECK>) <integer
=item "fips-indicator" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR>) <integer>
See L<provider-keymgmt(7)/Common Information Parameters> for more information.
=back
=head2 DSA key generation parameters
The B<DSA> key type supports the FFC key generation parameters (see
L<EVP_PKEY-FFC(7)/FFC key generation parameters>
The following restrictions apply to the "pbits" field:
For "fips186_4" this must be either 2048 or 3072.
For "fips186_2" this must be 1024.
For "group" this can be any one of 2048, 3072, 4096, 6144 or 8192.
=head2 DSA key validation
For DSA keys, L<EVP_PKEY_param_check(3)> behaves in the following way:
The OpenSSL FIPS provider conforms to the rules within the FIPS186-4
standard for FFC parameter validation. For backwards compatibility the OpenSSL
default provider uses a much simpler check (see below) for parameter validation,
unless the seed parameter is set.
For DSA keys, L<EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick(3)> behaves in the following way:
A simple check of L and N and partial g is performed. The default provider
also supports validation of legacy "fips186_2" keys.
For DSA keys, L<EVP_PKEY_public_check(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_private_check(3)> and
L<EVP_PKEY_pairwise_check(3)> the OpenSSL default and FIPS providers conform to
the rules within SP800-56Ar3 for public, private and pairwise tests respectively.
=head1 EXAMPLES
An B<EVP_PKEY> context can be obtained by calling:
EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name(NULL, "DSA", NULL);
The B<DSA> domain parameters can be generated by calling:
unsigned int pbits = 2048;
unsigned int qbits = 256;
int gindex = 1;
OSSL_PARAM params[5];
EVP_PKEY *param_key = NULL;
EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx = NULL;
pctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name(NULL, "DSA", NULL);
EVP_PKEY_paramgen_init(pctx);
params[0] = OSSL_PARAM_construct_uint("pbits", &pbits);
params[1] = OSSL_PARAM_construct_uint("qbits", &qbits);
params[2] = OSSL_PARAM_construct_int("gindex", &gindex);
params[3] = OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_string("digest", "SHA384", 0);
params[4] = OSSL_PARAM_construct_end();
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params(pctx, params);
EVP_PKEY_generate(pctx, ¶m_key);
EVP_PKEY_CTX_free(pctx);
EVP_PKEY_print_params(bio_out, param_key, 0, NULL);
A B<DSA> key can be generated using domain parameters by calling:
EVP_PKEY *key = NULL;
EVP_PKEY_CTX *gctx = NULL;
gctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_pkey(NULL, param_key, NULL);
EVP_PKEY_keygen_init(gctx);
EVP_PKEY_generate(gctx, &key);
EVP_PKEY_CTX_free(gctx);
EVP_PKEY_print_private(bio_out, key, 0, NULL);
