|  | =head1 NAME | 
|  |  | 
|  | DSA_size, DSA_bits, DSA_security_bits - get DSA signature size, key bits or security bits | 
|  |  | 
|  | =head1 SYNOPSIS | 
|  |  | 
|  | #include <openssl/dsa.h> | 
|  |  | 
|  | int DSA_size(const DSA *dsa); | 
|  | int DSA_bits(const DSA *dsa); | 
|  | int DSA_security_bits(const DSA *dsa); | 
|  |  | 
|  | =head1 DESCRIPTION | 
|  |  | 
|  | DSA_size() returns the maximum size of an ASN.1 encoded DSA signature | 
|  | for key B<dsa> in bytes. It can be used to determine how much memory must | 
|  | be allocated for a DSA signature. | 
|  |  | 
|  | B<dsa-E<gt>q> must not be B<NULL>. | 
|  |  | 
|  | DSA_bits() returns the number of bits in key B<dsa>: this is the number | 
|  | of bits in the B<p> parameter. | 
|  |  | 
|  | DSA_security_bits() returns the number of security bits of the given B<dsa> | 
|  | key. See L<BN_security_bits(3)>. | 
|  |  | 
|  | =head1 RETURN VALUES | 
|  |  | 
|  | DSA_size() returns the signature size in bytes. | 
|  |  | 
|  | DSA_bits() returns the number of bits in the key. |
