28=head1 DESCRIPTION
29
30An RSA object contains the components for the public and private key,
31B<n>, B<e>, B<d>, B<p>, B<q>, B<dmp1>, B<dmq1> and B<iqmp>. B<n> is
32the modulus common to both public and private key, B<e> is the public
33exponent and B<d> is the private exponent. B<p>, B<q>, B<dmp1>,
34B<dmq1> and B<iqmp> are the factors for the second representation of a
35private key (see PKCS#1 section 3 Key Types), where B<p> and B<q> are
36the first and second factor of B<n> and B<dmp1>, B<dmq1> and B<iqmp>
37are the exponents and coefficient for CRT calculations.
38
39The B<n>, B<e> and B<d> parameters can be obtained by calling
40RSA_get0_key(). If they have not been set yet, then B<*n>, B<*e> and
41B<*d> will be set to NULL. Otherwise, they are set to pointers to
42their respective values. These point directly to the internal
43representations of the values and therefore should not be freed
44by the caller.
45
46The B<n>, B<e> and B<d> parameter values can be set by calling
47RSA_set0_key() and passing the new values for B<n>, B<e> and B<d> as
4c5e6b2c
RL
48parameters to the function. The values B<n> and B<e> must be non-NULL
49the first time this function is called on a given RSA object. The
50value B<d> may be NULL. On subsequent calls any of these values may be
51NULL which means the corresponding RSA field is left untouched.
52Calling this function transfers the memory management of the values to
53the RSA object, and therefore the values that have been passed in
54should not be freed by the caller after this function has been called.

55
56In a similar fashion, the B<p> and B<q> parameters can be obtained and
57set with RSA_get0_factors() and RSA_set0_factors(), and the B<dmp1>,
58B<dmq1> and B<iqmp> parameters can be obtained and set with
59RSA_get0_crt_params() and RSA_set0_crt_params().
60
61RSA_set_flags() sets the flags in the B<flags> parameter on the RSA
62object. Multiple flags can be passed in one go (bitwise ORed together).
63Any flags that are already set are left set. RSA_test_flags() tests to
64see whether the flags passed in the B<flags> parameter are currently
65set in the RSA object. Multiple flags can be tested in one go. All
66flags that are currently set are returned, or zero if none of the
67flags are set. RSA_clear_flags() clears the specified flags within the
68RSA object.
69
70RSA_get0_engine() returns a handle to the ENGINE that has been set for
71this RSA object, or NULL if no such ENGINE has been set.

73=head1 NOTES
74
75Values retrieved with RSA_get0_key() are owned by the RSA object used
76in the call and may therefore I<not> be passed to RSA_set0_key(). If
77needed, duplicate the received value using BN_dup() and pass the
78duplicate. The same applies to RSA_get0_factors() and RSA_set0_factors()
79as well as RSA_get0_crt_params() and RSA_set0_crt_params().

81=head1 RETURN VALUES
82
83RSA_set0_key(), RSA_set0_factors and RSA_set0_crt_params() return 1 on
84success or 0 on failure.
85
86RSA_test_flags() returns the current state of the flags in the RSA object.
87
88RSA_get0_engine() returns the ENGINE set for the RSA object or NULL if no
89ENGINE has been set.
