+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+\&\fBX509_sign()\fR signs certificate \fIx\fR using private key \fIpkey\fR and message
+digest \fImd\fR and sets the signature in \fIx\fR. \fBX509_sign_ctx()\fR also signs
+certificate \fIx\fR but uses the parameters contained in digest context \fIctx\fR.
+If the certificate information includes X.509 extensions,
+these two functions make sure that the certificate bears X.509 version 3.
+.PP
+\&\fBX509_REQ_sign()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_sign_ctx()\fR,
+\&\fBX509_CRL_sign()\fR, and \fBX509_CRL_sign_ctx()\fR
+sign certificate requests and CRLs, respectively.
+.SH NOTES
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+\&\fBX509_sign_ctx()\fR is used where the default parameters for the corresponding
+public key and digest are not suitable. It can be used to sign keys using
+RSA-PSS for example.
+.PP
+For efficiency reasons and to work around ASN.1 encoding issues the encoding
+of the signed portion of a certificate, certificate request and CRL is cached
+internally. If the signed portion of the structure is modified the encoding
+is not always updated meaning a stale version is sometimes used. This is not
+normally a problem because modifying the signed portion will invalidate the
+signature and signing will always update the encoding.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+All functions return the size of the signature
+in bytes for success and zero for failure.

+The \fBX509_sign()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_sign()\fR and \fBX509_CRL_sign()\fR functions are

+The \fBX509_sign_ctx()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_sign_ctx()\fR
+and \fBX509_CRL_sign_ctx()\fR functions were added in OpenSSL 1.0.1.
