 #include <openssl/rsa.h>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
 | 
						|
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
 | 
						|
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 void RSA_set_default_method(const RSA_METHOD *meth);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 const RSA_METHOD *RSA_get_default_method(void);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int RSA_set_method(RSA *rsa, const RSA_METHOD *meth);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 const RSA_METHOD *RSA_get_method(const RSA *rsa);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 const RSA_METHOD *RSA_PKCS1_OpenSSL(void);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int RSA_flags(const RSA *rsa);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 RSA *RSA_new_method(ENGINE *engine);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
 | 
						|
Applications should instead use the OSSL_PROVIDER APIs.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
An B<RSA_METHOD> specifies the functions that OpenSSL uses for RSA
 | 
						|
operations. By modifying the method, alternative implementations such as
 | 
						|
hardware accelerators may be used. IMPORTANT: See the NOTES section for
 | 
						|
important information about how these RSA API functions are affected by the
 | 
						|
use of B<ENGINE> API calls.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Initially, the default RSA_METHOD is the OpenSSL internal implementation,
 | 
						|
as returned by RSA_PKCS1_OpenSSL().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_set_default_method() makes B<meth> the default method for all RSA
 | 
						|
structures created later.
 | 
						|
B<NB>: This is true only whilst no ENGINE has
 | 
						|
been set as a default for RSA, so this function is no longer recommended.
 | 
						|
This function is not thread-safe and should not be called at the same time
 | 
						|
as other OpenSSL functions.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_get_default_method() returns a pointer to the current default
 | 
						|
RSA_METHOD. However, the meaningfulness of this result is dependent on
 | 
						|
whether the ENGINE API is being used, so this function is no longer
 | 
						|
recommended.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_set_method() selects B<meth> to perform all operations using the key
 | 
						|
B<rsa>. This will replace the RSA_METHOD used by the RSA key and if the
 | 
						|
previous method was supplied by an ENGINE, the handle to that ENGINE will
 | 
						|
be released during the change. It is possible to have RSA keys that only
 | 
						|
work with certain RSA_METHOD implementations (e.g. from an ENGINE module
 | 
						|
that supports embedded hardware-protected keys), and in such cases
 | 
						|
attempting to change the RSA_METHOD for the key can have unexpected
 | 
						|
results.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_get_method() returns a pointer to the RSA_METHOD being used by B<rsa>.
 | 
						|
This method may or may not be supplied by an ENGINE implementation, but if
 | 
						|
it is, the return value can only be guaranteed to be valid as long as the
 | 
						|
RSA key itself is valid and does not have its implementation changed by
 | 
						|
RSA_set_method().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_flags() returns the B<flags> that are set for B<rsa>'s current
 | 
						|
RSA_METHOD. See the BUGS section.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_new_method() allocates and initializes an RSA structure so that
 | 
						|
B<engine> will be used for the RSA operations. If B<engine> is NULL, the
 | 
						|
default ENGINE for RSA operations is used, and if no default ENGINE is set,
 | 
						|
the RSA_METHOD controlled by RSA_set_default_method() is used.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_flags() returns the B<flags> that are set for B<rsa>'s current method.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_new_method() allocates and initializes an B<RSA> structure so that
 | 
						|
B<method> will be used for the RSA operations. If B<method> is B<NULL>,
 | 
						|
the default method is used.

=head1 RETURN VALUES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_PKCS1_OpenSSL(), RSA_PKCS1_null_method(), RSA_get_default_method()
 | 
						|
and RSA_get_method() return pointers to the respective RSA_METHODs.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_set_default_method() returns no value.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_set_method() returns a pointer to the old RSA_METHOD implementation
 | 
						|
that was replaced. However, this return value should probably be ignored
 | 
						|
because if it was supplied by an ENGINE, the pointer could be invalidated
 | 
						|
at any time if the ENGINE is unloaded (in fact it could be unloaded as a
 | 
						|
result of the RSA_set_method() function releasing its handle to the
 | 
						|
ENGINE). For this reason, the return type may be replaced with a B<void>
 | 
						|
declaration in a future release.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
RSA_new_method() returns NULL and sets an error code that can be obtained
 | 
						|
by L<ERR_get_error(3)> if the allocation fails. Otherwise
 | 
						|
it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 BUGS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The behaviour of RSA_flags() is a mis-feature that is left as-is for now
 | 
						|
to avoid creating compatibility problems. RSA functionality, such as the
 | 
						|
encryption functions, are controlled by the B<flags> value in the RSA key
 | 
						|
itself, not by the B<flags> value in the RSA_METHOD attached to the RSA key
 | 
						|
(which is what this function returns). If the flags element of an RSA key
 | 
						|
is changed, the changes will be honoured by RSA functionality but will not
 | 
						|
be reflected in the return value of the RSA_flags() function - in effect
 | 
						|
RSA_flags() behaves more like an RSA_default_flags() function (which does
 | 
						|
not currently exist).

=head1 HISTORY
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The RSA_null_method(), which was a partial attempt to avoid patent issues,
 | 
						|
was replaced to always return NULL in OpenSSL 1.1.1.
