| =head1 DESCRIPTION
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_fetch() fetches the implementation for the given
 | |
| B<algorithm> from any provider offering it, within the criteria given
 | |
| by the B<properties>.
 | |
| The algorithm will be one offering functions for performing signature related
 | |
| tasks such as signing and verifying.
 | |
| See L<provider(7)/Fetching algorithms> for further information.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The returned value must eventually be freed with EVP_SIGNATURE_free().
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_free() decrements the reference count for the B<EVP_SIGNATURE>
 | |
| structure. Typically this structure will have been obtained from an earlier call
 | |
| to EVP_SIGNATURE_fetch(). If the reference count drops to 0 then the
 | |
| structure is freed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_up_ref() increments the reference count for an B<EVP_SIGNATURE>
 | |
| structure.
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_is_a() returns 1 if I<signature> is an implementation of an
 | |
| algorithm that's identifiable with I<name>, otherwise 0.
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_provider() returns the provider that I<signature> was fetched from.
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_do_all_provided() traverses all SIGNATURE implemented by all
 | |
| activated roviders in the given library context I<libctx>, and for each of the
 | |
| implementations, calls the given function I<fn> with the implementation method
 | |
| and the given I<arg> as argument.
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_number() returns the internal dynamic number assigned to
 | |
| I<signature>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_names_do_all() traverses all names for I<signature>, and calls
 | |
| I<fn> with each name and I<data>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_fetch() returns a pointer to an B<EVP_SIGNATURE> for success
 | |
| or B<NULL> for failure.
 | |
| 
 | |
| EVP_SIGNATURE_up_ref() returns 1 for success or 0 otherwise.
