DSA_SIG_new(void);

void
DSA_SIG_free(DSA_SIG *sig);

void
DSA_SIG_get0(const DSA_SIG *sig, const BIGNUM **r, const BIGNUM **s);

int
DSA_SIG_set0(DSA_SIG *sig, BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *s);

() allocates an empty DSA_SIG structure.

() frees the DSA_SIG structure and its components. The values are erased before the memory is returned to the system. If sig is a NULL pointer, no action occurs.

() retrieves internal pointers to the r and s values contained in sig.

The r and s values can be set by calling (). Calling this function transfers the memory management of the values to sig, and therefore they should not be freed by the caller.

If the allocation fails, DSA_SIG_new() returns NULL and sets an error code that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3). Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.

DSA_SIG_set0() returns 1 on success or 0 on failure.
