=head1 NAME
EVP_SIGNATURE-DSA
- The B<EVP_PKEY> DSA signature implementation
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Support for computing DSA signatures.
See L<EVP_PKEY-DSA(7)> for information related to DSA keys.
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 Signature Parameters
The following signature parameters can be set using EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params().
This may be called after EVP_PKEY_sign_init() or EVP_PKEY_verify_init(),
and before calling EVP_PKEY_sign() or EVP_PKEY_verify(). They may also be set
using EVP_PKEY_sign_init_ex() or EVP_PKEY_verify_init_ex().
