DESCRIPTION

The type is a structure used for the provision of custom implementations. It provides a set of of functions used by OpenSSL for the implementation of the various capabilities. See the rsa page for more information.

RSA_meth_new() creates a new

structure. It should be given a unique name and a set of flags. The name should be a terminated string, which will be duplicated and stored in the object. It is the callers responsibility to free the original string. The flags will be used during the construction of a new object based on this . Any new object will have those flags set by default.

RSA_meth_dup() creates a duplicate copy of the

object passed as a parameter. This might be useful for creating a new based on an existing one, but with some differences.

RSA_meth_free() destroys an

structure and frees up any memory associated with it.

RSA_meth_get0_name() will return a pointer to the name of this

This is a pointer to the internal name string and so should not be freed by the caller. RSA_meth_set1_name() sets the name of the to name. The string is duplicated and the copy is stored in the structure, so the caller remains responsible for freeing the memory associated with the name.

RSA_meth_get_flags() returns the current value of the flags associated with this

RSA_meth_set_flags() provides the ability to set these flags.

The functions RSA_meth_get0_app_data() and RSA_meth_set0_app_data() provide the ability to associate implementation specific data with the

It is the application's responsibility to free this data before the is freed via a call to RSA_meth_free().

RSA_meth_get_sign() and RSA_meth_set_sign() get and set the function used for creating an

signature respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling RSA_sign(). The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for RSA_sign().

RSA_meth_get_verify() and RSA_meth_set_verify() get and set the function used for verifying an

signature respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling RSA_verify(). The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for RSA_verify().

RSA_meth_get_mod_exp() and RSA_meth_set_mod_exp() get and set the function used for

computations.

RSA_meth_get_bn_mod_exp() and RSA_meth_set_bn_mod_exp() get and set the function used for

computations, specifically the following value:

 r = a ^ p mod m

Both the mod_exp() and bn_mod_exp() functions are called by the default OpenSSL method during encryption, decryption, signing and verification.

RSA_meth_get_init() and RSA_meth_set_init() get and set the function used for creating a new

instance respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling RSA_new() (if the current default is this one) or RSA_new_method(). The RSA_new() and RSA_new_method() functions will allocate the memory for the new object, and a pointer to this newly allocated structure will be passed as a parameter to the function. This function may be

RSA_meth_get_finish() and RSA_meth_set_finish() get and set the function used for destroying an instance of an

object respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling RSA_free(). A pointer to the to be destroyed is passed as a parameter. The destroy function should be used for implementation specific clean up. The memory for the itself should not be freed by this function. This function may be

RSA_meth_get_keygen() and RSA_meth_set_keygen() get and set the function used for generating a new

key pair respectively. This function will be called in response to the application calling RSA_generate_key(). The parameter for the function has the same meaning as for RSA_generate_key().

RSA_meth_get_pub_enc(), RSA_meth_set_pub_enc(), RSA_meth_get_pub_dec(), RSA_meth_set_pub_dec(), RSA_meth_get_priv_enc(), RSA_meth_set_priv_enc(), RSA_meth_get_priv_dec(), RSA_meth_set_priv_dec() get and set the functions used for public and private key encryption and decryption. These functions will be called in response to the application calling RSA_public_encrypt(), RSA_private_decrypt(), RSA_private_encrypt() and RSA_public_decrypt() and take the same parameters as those.

RETURN VALUES

RSA_meth_new() and RSA_meth_dup() return the newly allocated object or on failure.

RSA_meth_get0_name() and RSA_meth_get_flags() return the name and flags associated with the

respectively.

All other RSA_meth_get_*() functions return the appropriate function pointer that has been set in the

or if no such pointer has yet been set.

RSA_meth_set1_name and all RSA_meth_set_*() functions return 1 on success or 0 on failure.
