+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+See \fBECDSA_SIG_new\fR\|(3) for a description of the \fBECDSA_SIG\fR object.
+.PP
+See \fBi2d_ECDSA_SIG\fR\|(3) and \fBd2i_ECDSA_SIG\fR\|(3) for information about encoding
+and decoding ECDSA signatures to/from DER.
+.PP
+All of the functions described below are deprecated. Applications should
+use the higher level \fBEVP\fR interface such as \fBEVP_DigestSignInit\fR\|(3)
+or \fBEVP_DigestVerifyInit\fR\|(3) instead.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_size()\fR returns the maximum length of a DER encoded ECDSA signature
+created with the private EC key \fIeckey\fR. To obtain the actual signature
+size use \fBEVP_PKEY_sign\fR\|(3) with a NULL \fIsig\fR parameter.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_sign()\fR computes a digital signature of the \fIdgstlen\fR bytes hash value
+\&\fIdgst\fR using the private EC key \fIeckey\fR. The DER encoded signatures is
+stored in \fIsig\fR and its length is returned in \fIsiglen\fR. Note: \fIsig\fR must
+point to ECDSA_size(eckey) bytes of memory. The parameter \fItype\fR is currently
+ignored. \fBECDSA_sign()\fR is wrapper function for \fBECDSA_sign_ex()\fR with \fIkinv\fR
+and \fIrp\fR set to NULL.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_do_sign()\fR is similar to \fBECDSA_sign()\fR except the signature is returned
+as a newly allocated \fBECDSA_SIG\fR structure (or NULL on error). \fBECDSA_do_sign()\fR
+is a wrapper function for \fBECDSA_do_sign_ex()\fR with \fIkinv\fR and \fIrp\fR set to
+NULL.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_verify()\fR verifies that the signature in \fIsig\fR of size \fIsiglen\fR is a
+valid ECDSA signature of the hash value \fIdgst\fR of size \fIdgstlen\fR using the
+public key \fIeckey\fR. The parameter \fItype\fR is ignored.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_do_verify()\fR is similar to \fBECDSA_verify()\fR except the signature is
+presented in the form of a pointer to an \fBECDSA_SIG\fR structure.
+.PP
+The remaining functions utilise the internal \fIkinv\fR and \fIr\fR values used
+during signature computation. Most applications will never need to call these
+and some external ECDSA ENGINE implementations may not support them at all if
+either \fIkinv\fR or \fIr\fR is not NULL.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_sign_setup()\fR may be used to precompute parts of the signing operation.
+\&\fIeckey\fR is the private EC key and \fIctx\fR is a pointer to \fBBN_CTX\fR structure
+(or NULL). The precomputed values or returned in \fIkinv\fR and \fIrp\fR and can be
+used in a later call to \fBECDSA_sign_ex()\fR or \fBECDSA_do_sign_ex()\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_sign_ex()\fR computes a digital signature of the \fIdgstlen\fR bytes hash value
+\&\fIdgst\fR using the private EC key \fIeckey\fR and the optional pre\-computed values
+\&\fIkinv\fR and \fIrp\fR. The DER encoded signature is stored in \fIsig\fR and its
+length is returned in \fIsiglen\fR. Note: \fIsig\fR must point to ECDSA_size(eckey)
+bytes of memory. The parameter \fItype\fR is ignored.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_do_sign_ex()\fR is similar to \fBECDSA_sign_ex()\fR except the signature is
+returned as a newly allocated \fBECDSA_SIG\fR structure (or NULL on error).
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"

+\&\fBECDSA_size()\fR returns the maximum length signature or 0 on error.

+.SH EXAMPLES
+.IX Header "EXAMPLES"
+Creating an ECDSA signature of a given SHA\-256 hash value using the
+named curve prime256v1 (aka P\-256).
+This example uses deprecated functionality. See "DESCRIPTION".
+.PP
+First step: create an EC_KEY object (note: this part is \fBnot\fR ECDSA
+specific)
+.PP
+.Vb 3
+\& int ret;
+\& ECDSA_SIG *sig;
+\& EC_KEY *eckey;
+\&
+\& eckey = EC_KEY_new_by_curve_name(NID_X9_62_prime256v1);
+\& if (eckey == NULL)
+\& /* error */
+\& if (EC_KEY_generate_key(eckey) == 0)
+\& /* error */
+.Ve
+.PP
+Second step: compute the ECDSA signature of a SHA\-256 hash value
+using \fBECDSA_do_sign()\fR:
+.PP
+.Vb 3
+\& sig = ECDSA_do_sign(digest, 32, eckey);
+\& if (sig == NULL)
+\& /* error */
+.Ve
+.PP
+or using \fBECDSA_sign()\fR:
+.PP
+.Vb 2
+\& unsigned char *buffer, *pp;
+\& int buf_len;
+\&
+\& buf_len = ECDSA_size(eckey);
+\& buffer = OPENSSL_malloc(buf_len);
+\& pp = buffer;
+\& if (ECDSA_sign(0, dgst, dgstlen, pp, &buf_len, eckey) == 0)
+\& /* error */
+.Ve
+.PP
+Third step: verify the created ECDSA signature using \fBECDSA_do_verify()\fR:
+.PP
+.Vb 1
+\& ret = ECDSA_do_verify(digest, 32, sig, eckey);
+.Ve
+.PP
+or using \fBECDSA_verify()\fR:
+.PP
+.Vb 1
+\& ret = ECDSA_verify(0, digest, 32, buffer, buf_len, eckey);
+.Ve
+.PP
+and finally evaluate the return value:
+.PP
+.Vb 6
+\& if (ret == 1)
+\& /* signature ok */
+\& else if (ret == 0)
+\& /* incorrect signature */
+\& else
+\& /* error */
