Fix bogus cross reference: EVP_SignDigest* -> EVP_DigestSign*

EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup() is deprecated and doesn't free, so recommend using

2018-12-23T08:35:14+00:00

EVP_MD_CTX_free() instead if the goal is to avoid leaking memory. From my corresponding upstream commit, reminded by schwarze

sync with const changes in evp.h r1.64.

Document EVP_PKEY_bits(3).

2018-05-13T15:53:30+00:00

It is clearly public because it is declared in , refenced from EVP_PKEY_asn1_set_public(3), and similar to the documented functions DH_bits(3) and RSA_bits(3). Triggered by tb@ adding a const qualifier to its argument.

Remove mention of link between message digests and public key algorithms.

The comment in EVP_DigestInit.pod is: "EVP_MD_pkey_type() returns the NID of the public key signing algorithm associated with this digest. For example EVP_sha1() is associated with RSA so this will return NID_sha1WithRSAEncryption. Since digests and signature algorithms are no longer linked this function is only retained for compatibility reasons." So there is no link anymore.

New manual page EVP_PKEY_asn1_new(3) from Richard Levitte

2018-02-14T02:15:46+00:00

via OpenSSL commit 751148e2 Oct 27 00:11:11 2017 +0200, including only the parts related to functions that exist in OpenBSD. The design of these interfaces is not particularly pretty, they are not particularly easy to document, and the manual page does not look particularly good when formatted, but what can we do, things are as they are...
