Merge all of rsa(3) into RSA_new(3).
In this case, keep the text about individual struct fields
because it contains some actual information.

9 | .Sh SYNOPSIS | ||
10 | .In openssl/rsa.h | ||
11 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | ||
12 | These functions implement RSA public key encryption and signatures as | ||
13 | defined in PKCS #1 v2.0 [RFC 2437]. | ||
14 | .Pp | ||
15 | The | ||
16 | .Vt RSA | ||
17 | structure consists of several BIGNUM components. | ||
18 | It can contain public as well as private RSA keys: | ||
19 | .Bd -literal | ||
20 | typdef struct { | ||
21 | BIGNUM *n; // public modulus | ||
22 | BIGNUM *e; // public exponent | ||
23 | BIGNUM *d; // private exponent | ||
24 | BIGNUM *p; // secret prime factor | ||
25 | BIGNUM *q; // secret prime factor | ||
26 | BIGNUM *dmp1; // d mod (p-1) | ||
27 | BIGNUM *dmq1; // d mod (q-1) | ||
28 | BIGNUM *iqmp; // q^-1 mod p | ||
29 | // ... | ||
30 | } RSA; | ||
31 | .Ed | ||
32 | .Pp | ||
33 | In public keys, the private exponent and the related secret values are | ||
34 | .Dv NULL . | ||
35 | .Pp | ||
36 | .Fa p , | ||
37 | .Fa q , | ||
38 | .Fa dmp1 , | ||
39 | .Fa dmq1 , | ||
40 | and | ||
41 | .Fa iqmp | ||
42 | may be | ||
43 | .Dv NULL | ||
44 | in private keys, but the RSA operations are much faster when these | ||
45 | values are available. | ||
46 | .Pp | ||
47 | Note that RSA keys may use non-standard | ||
48 | .Vt RSA_METHOD | ||
49 | implementations, either directly or by the use of | ||
50 | .Vt ENGINE | ||
51 | modules. | ||
52 | In some cases (e.g. an | ||
53 | .Vt ENGINE | ||
54 | providing support for hardware-embedded keys), these | ||
55 | .Vt BIGNUM | ||
56 | values will not be used by the implementation or may be used for | ||
57 | alternative data storage. | ||
58 | For this reason, applications should generally avoid using | ||
59 | .Vt RSA | ||
60 | structure elements directly and instead use API functions to query | ||
61 | or modify keys. | ||
