=head1 DESCRIPTION
These functions implement RSA public key encryption and signatures
as defined in PKCS #1 v2.0 [RFC 2437].
The B<RSA> structure consists of several BIGNUM components. It can
contain public as well as private RSA keys:
struct
{
BIGNUM *n; // public modulus
BIGNUM *e; // public exponent
BIGNUM *d; // private exponent
BIGNUM *p; // secret prime factor
BIGNUM *q; // secret prime factor
BIGNUM *dmp1; // d mod (p-1)
BIGNUM *dmq1; // d mod (q-1)
BIGNUM *iqmp; // q^-1 mod p
// ...
};
RSA
In public keys, the private exponent and the related secret values are
B<NULL>.
B<p>, B<q>, B<dmp1>, B<dmq1> and B<iqmp> may be B<NULL> in private
keys, but the RSA operations are much faster when these values are
available.
Note that RSA keys may use non-standard B<RSA_METHOD> implementations,
either directly or by the use of B<ENGINE> modules. In some cases (eg. an
ENGINE providing support for hardware-embedded keys), these BIGNUM values
will not be used by the implementation or may be used for alternative data
storage. For this reason, applications should generally avoid using RSA
structure elements directly and instead use API functions to query or
modify keys.
