+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+These functions implement the Digital Signature Algorithm (\s-1DSA\s0). The
+generation of shared \s-1DSA\s0 parameters is described in
+\&\fIDSA_generate_parameters\fR\|(3);
+\&\fIDSA_generate_key\fR\|(3) describes how to
+generate a signature key. Signature generation and verification are
+described in \fIDSA_sign\fR\|(3).
+.PP
+The \fB\s-1DSA\s0\fR structure consists of several \s-1BIGNUM\s0 components.
+.PP
+.Vb 10
+\& struct
+\& {
+\& BIGNUM *p; // prime number (public)
+\& BIGNUM *q; // 160\-bit subprime, q | p\-1 (public)
+\& BIGNUM *g; // generator of subgroup (public)
+\& BIGNUM *priv_key; // private key x
+\& BIGNUM *pub_key; // public key y = g^x
+\& // ...
+\& }
+\& DSA;
+.Ve
+.PP
+In public keys, \fBpriv_key\fR is \s-1NULL\s0.
+.PP
+Note that \s-1DSA\s0 keys may use non-standard \fB\s-1DSA_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-1DSA\s0
+structure elements directly and instead use \s-1API\s0 functions to query or
+modify keys.
