.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBEVP_PKEY_sign_init()\fR initializes a public key algorithm context \fIctx\fR for
signing using the algorithm given when the context was created
using \fBEVP_PKEY_CTX_new\fR\|(3) or variants thereof. The algorithm is used to
fetch a \fB\s-1EVP_SIGNATURE\s0\fR method implicitly, see \*(L"Implicit fetch\*(R" in \fBprovider\fR\|(7)
for more information about implicit fetches.
.PP
\&\fBEVP_PKEY_sign_init_ex()\fR is the same as \fBEVP_PKEY_sign_init()\fR but additionally
sets the passed parameters \fIparams\fR on the context before returning.
.PP
The \fBEVP_PKEY_sign()\fR function performs a public key signing operation
using \fIctx\fR. The data to be signed is specified using the \fItbs\fR and
\&\fItbslen\fR parameters. If \fIsig\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 then the maximum size of the output
buffer is written to the \fIsiglen\fR parameter. If \fIsig\fR is not \s-1NULL\s0 then
before the call the \fIsiglen\fR parameter should contain the length of the
\&\fIsig\fR buffer, if the call is successful the signature is written to
\&\fIsig\fR and the amount of data written to \fIsiglen\fR.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
\&\fBEVP_PKEY_sign()\fR does not hash the data to be signed, and therefore is
normally used to sign digests. For signing arbitrary messages, see the
\&\fBEVP_DigestSignInit\fR\|(3) and
\&\fBEVP_SignInit\fR\|(3) signing interfaces instead.
.PP
After the call to \fBEVP_PKEY_sign_init()\fR algorithm specific control
operations can be performed to set any appropriate parameters for the
operation (see \fBEVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl\fR\|(3)).
.PP
The function \fBEVP_PKEY_sign()\fR can be called more than once on the same
context if several operations are performed using the same parameters.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBEVP_PKEY_sign_init()\fR and \fBEVP_PKEY_sign()\fR 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.
