=head1 NAME

EVP_PKEY-RSA, EVP_KEYMGMT-RSA, RSA
- EVP_PKEY RSA keytype and algorithm support

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The B<RSA> keytype is implemented in OpenSSL's default and FIPS providers.
That implementation supports the basic RSA keys, containing the modulus I<n>,
the public exponent I<e>, the private exponent I<d>, and a collection of prime
factors, exponents and coefficient for CRT calculations, of which the first
few are known as I<p> and I<q>, I<dP> and I<dQ>, and I<qInv>.

=head2 Common RSA parameters

In addition to the common parameters that all keytypes should support (see
L<provider-keymgmt(7)/Common parameters>), the B<RSA> keytype implementation
supports the following.

=over 4

=item "n" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_N>) <unsigned integer>

The RSA "n" value.

=item "e" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_E>) <unsigned integer>

The RSA "e" value.

=item "d" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_D>) <unsigned integer>

The RSA "d" value.

=item "rsa-factor1" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR1>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor2" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR2>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor3" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR3>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor4" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR4>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor5" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR5>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor6" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR6>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor7" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR7>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor8" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR8>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor9" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR9>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-factor10" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR10>) <unsigned integer>

RSA prime factors. The factors are known as "p", "q" and "r_i" in RFC8017.
Up to eight additional "r_i" prime factors are supported.

=item "rsa-exponent1" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT1>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent2" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT2>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent3" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT3>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent4" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT4>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent5" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT5>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent6" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT6>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent7" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT7>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent8" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT8>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent9" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT9>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-exponent10" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT10>) <unsigned integer>

RSA CRT (Chinese Remainder Theorem) exponents. The exponents are known
as "dP", "dQ" and "d_i in RFC8017".
Up to eight additional "d_i" exponents are supported.

=item "rsa-coefficient1" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT1>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-coefficient2" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT2>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-coefficient3" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT3>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-coefficient4" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT4>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-coefficient5" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT5>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-coefficient6" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT6>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-coefficient7" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT7>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-coefficient8" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT8>) <unsigned integer>

=item "rsa-coefficient9" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT9>) <unsigned integer>

RSA CRT (Chinese Remainder Theorem) coefficients. The coefficients are known as
"qInv" and "t_i".
Up to eight additional "t_i" exponents are supported.

=head2 RSA key generation parameters

When generating RSA keys, the following key generation parameters may be used.

=over 4

=item "bits" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_BITS>) <unsigned integer>

The value should be the cryptographic length for the B<RSA> cryptosystem, in
bits.

=item "primes" (B<OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_PRIMES>) <unsigned integer>

The value should be the number of primes for the generated B<RSA> key.  The
default is 2.  It isn't permitted to specify a larger number of primes than
10.  Additionally, the number of primes is limited by the length of the key
being generated so the maximum number could be less.

=back

=head1 CONFORMING TO

=over 4

=item RFC 8017, excluding RSA-PSS and RSA-OAEP

=for comment RSA-PSS, and probably also RSA-OAEP, need separate keytypes,
and will be described in separate pages for those RSA keytypes.

=head1 EXAMPLES

An B<EVP_PKEY> context can be obtained by calling:

    EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx =
        EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name(NULL, "RSA", NULL);

An B<RSA> key can be generated like this:

    EVP_PKEY *pkey = NULL;
    EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx =
        EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name(NULL, "RSA", NULL);

    EVP_PKEY_keygen_init(pctx);
    EVP_PKEY_gen(pctx, &pkey);
    EVP_PKEY_CTX_free(pctx);

An B<RSA> key can be generated with key generation parameters:

    unsigned int primes = 3;
    unsigned int bits = 4096;
    OSSL_PARAM params[3];
    EVP_PKEY *pkey = NULL;
    EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx =
        EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name(NULL, "RSA", NULL);

    params[0] = OSSL_PARAM_construct_uint("bits", bits);
    params[1] = OSSL_PARAM_construct_uint("primes", primes);
    params[2] = OSSL_PARAM_END;
    EVP_PKEY_keygen_init(pctx);
    EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params(pctx, params);
    EVP_PKEY_gen(pctx, &pkey);
    EVP_PKEY_CTX_free(pctx);
