+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_fetch()\fR fetches the implementation for the given
+\&\fBalgorithm\fR from any provider offering it, within the criteria given
+by the \fBproperties\fR.
+The algorithm will be one offering functions for performing signature related
+tasks such as signing and verifying.
+See "ALGORITHM FETCHING" in \fBcrypto\fR\|(7) for further information.
+.PP
+The returned value must eventually be freed with \fBEVP_SIGNATURE_free()\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_free()\fR decrements the reference count for the \fBEVP_SIGNATURE\fR
+structure. Typically this structure will have been obtained from an earlier call
+to \fBEVP_SIGNATURE_fetch()\fR. If the reference count drops to 0 then the
+structure is freed.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_up_ref()\fR increments the reference count for an \fBEVP_SIGNATURE\fR
+structure.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_is_a()\fR returns 1 if \fIsignature\fR is an implementation of an
+algorithm that's identifiable with \fIname\fR, otherwise 0.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_get0_provider()\fR returns the provider that \fIsignature\fR was
+fetched from.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_do_all_provided()\fR traverses all SIGNATURE implemented by all
+activated providers in the given library context \fIlibctx\fR, and for each of the
+implementations, calls the given function \fIfn\fR with the implementation method
+and the given \fIarg\fR as argument.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_get0_name()\fR returns the algorithm name from the provided
+implementation for the given \fIsignature\fR. Note that the \fIsignature\fR may have
+multiple synonyms associated with it. In this case the first name from the
+algorithm definition is returned. Ownership of the returned string is retained
+by the \fIsignature\fR object and should not be freed by the caller.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_names_do_all()\fR traverses all names for \fIsignature\fR, and calls
+\&\fIfn\fR with each name and \fIdata\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_get0_description()\fR returns a description of the \fIsignature\fR,
+meant for display and human consumption. The description is at the
+discretion of the \fIsignature\fR implementation.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_gettable_ctx_params()\fR and \fBEVP_SIGNATURE_settable_ctx_params()\fR
+return a constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array that describes the names and types of key
+parameters that can be retrieved or set by a signature algorithm using
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_CTX_get_params\fR\|(3) and \fBEVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params\fR\|(3).
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_fetch()\fR returns a pointer to an \fBEVP_SIGNATURE\fR for success
+or \fBNULL\fR for failure.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_up_ref()\fR returns 1 for success or 0 otherwise.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_names_do_all()\fR returns 1 if the callback was called for all names.
+A return value of 0 means that the callback was not called for any names.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_SIGNATURE_gettable_ctx_params()\fR and \fBEVP_SIGNATURE_settable_ctx_params()\fR
+return a constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array or NULL on error.
