.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
These functions implement \s-1RSA\s0 public key encryption and signatures
as defined in \s-1PKCS\s0 #1 v2.0 [\s-1RFC\s0 2437].
.PP
The \fB\s-1RSA\s0\fR structure consists of several \s-1BIGNUM\s0 components. It can
contain public as well as private \s-1RSA\s0 keys:
.PP
.Vb 10
\& 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
.Ve
.PP
In public keys, the private exponent and the related secret values are
\&\fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR.
.PP
\&\fBp\fR, \fBq\fR, \fBdmp1\fR, \fBdmq1\fR and \fBiqmp\fR may be \fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR in private
keys, but the \s-1RSA\s0 operations are much faster when these values are
available.
.PP
Note that \s-1RSA\s0 keys may use non-standard \fB\s-1RSA_METHOD\s0\fR implementations,
either directly or by the use of \fB\s-1ENGINE\s0\fR modules. In some cases (eg. an
\&\s-1ENGINE\s0 providing support for hardware-embedded keys), these \s-1BIGNUM\s0 values
will not be used by the implementation or may be used for alternative data
storage. For this reason, applications should generally avoid using \s-1RSA\s0
structure elements directly and instead use \s-1API\s0 functions to query or
modify keys.
