Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

NAME
RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING, RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING - RSA signatures
SYNOPSIS
Header "SYNOPSIS" .Vb 1 #include <openssl/rsa.h> .Ve

The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be hidden entirely by defining OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable version value, see openssl_user_macros\|(7):

.Vb 3 int RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(int dummy, unsigned char *m, unsigned int m_len, unsigned char *sigret, unsigned int *siglen, RSA *rsa); \& int RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(int dummy, unsigned char *m, unsigned int m_len, unsigned char *sigbuf, unsigned int siglen, RSA *rsa); .Ve

DESCRIPTION
Header "DESCRIPTION" All of the functions described on this page are deprecated. Applications should instead use EVP PKEY APIs.

\fBRSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() signs the octet string m of size \fBm_len using the private key rsa represented in DER using PKCS #1 padding. It stores the signature in sigret and the signature size in siglen. sigret must point to RSA_size(rsa) bytes of memory.

\fBdummy is ignored.

The random number generator must be seeded when calling \fBRSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(). If the automatic seeding or reseeding of the OpenSSL CSPRNG fails due to external circumstances (see RAND\|(7)), the operation will fail.

\fBRSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() verifies that the signature sigbuf of size siglen is the DER representation of a given octet string \fBm of size m_len. dummy is ignored. rsa is the signer's public key.

"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBRSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise. \fBRSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() returns 1 on successful verification, 0 otherwise.

The error codes can be obtained by ERR_get_error\|(3).

BUGS
Header "BUGS" These functions serve no recognizable purpose.

HISTORY
Header "HISTORY" All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
