NAME

       EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_md, EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_mgf1_md,
       EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_saltlen - EVP_PKEY RSA-PSS algorithm support functions

SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/rsa.h>

        int EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_md(EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx,
                                               const EVP_MD *md);
        int EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_mgf1_md(EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx,
                                                    const EVP_MD *md);
        int EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_saltlen(EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx,
                                                    int saltlen);

DESCRIPTION

       These are the functions that implement RSA-PSS(7).

   Signing and Verification
       The macro EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_padding() is supported but an error is returned if an
       attempt is made to set the padding mode to anything other than PSS. It is otherwise
       similar to the RSA version.

       The EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_saltlen() macro is used to set the salt length.  If the key
       has usage restrictions then an error is returned if an attempt is made to set the salt
       length below the minimum value. It is otherwise similar to the RSA operation except
       detection of the salt length (using RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_AUTO) is not supported for
       verification if the key has usage restrictions.

       The EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_signature_md() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_mgf1_md() macros are used to
       set the digest and MGF1 algorithms respectively. If the key has usage restrictions then an
       error is returned if an attempt is made to set the digest to anything other than the
       restricted value. Otherwise these are similar to the RSA versions.

   Key Generation
       As with RSA key generation the EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_keygen_bits() and
       EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_keygen_pubexp() macros are supported for RSA-PSS: they have exactly
       the same meaning as for the RSA algorithm.

       Optional parameter restrictions can be specified when generating a PSS key.  If any
       restrictions are set (using the macros described below) then all parameters are
       restricted. For example, setting a minimum salt length also restricts the digest and MGF1
       algorithms. If any restrictions are in place then they are reflected in the corresponding
       parameters of the public key when (for example) a certificate request is signed.

       EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_md() restricts the digest algorithm the generated key can
       use to md.

       EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_mgf1_md() restricts the MGF1 algorithm the generated key
       can use to md.

       EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_keygen_saltlen() restricts the minimum salt length to saltlen.

NOTES

       A context for the RSA-PSS algorithm can be obtained by calling:

        EVP_PKEY_CTX *pctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(EVP_PKEY_RSA_PSS, NULL);

RETURN VALUES

       All these functions return 1 for success and 0 or a negative value for failure.  In
       particular a return value of -2 indicates the operation is not supported by the public key
       algorithm.
