<p>EVP_PKEY-FFC - EVP_PKEY DSA and DH/DHX shared FFC parameters.</p>
|
|

|
<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Finite field cryptography (FFC) is a method of implementing discrete logarithm cryptography using finite field mathematics. DSA is an example of FFC and Diffie-Hellman key establishment algorithms specified in SP800-56A can also be implemented as FFC.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <b>DSA</b>, <b>DH</b> and <b>DHX</b> keytypes are implemented in OpenSSL's default and FIPS providers. The implementations support the basic DSA, DH and DHX keys, containing the public and private keys <i>pub</i> and <i>priv</i> as well as the three main domain parameters <i>p</i>, <i>q</i> and <i>g</i>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For <b>DSA</b> (and <b>DH</b> that is not a named group) the FIPS186-4 standard specifies that the values used for FFC parameter generation are also required for parameter validation. This means that optional FFC domain parameter values for <i>seed</i>, <i>pcounter</i> and <i>gindex</i> may need to be stored for validation purposes. For <b>DH</b> the <i>seed</i> and <i>pcounter</i> can be stored in ASN1 data (but the <i>gindex</i> is not). For <b>DSA</b> however, these fields are not stored in the ASN1 data so they need to be stored externally if validation is required.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <b>DH</b> key type uses PKCS#3 format which saves p and g, but not the 'q' value. The <b>DHX</b> key type uses X9.42 format which saves the value of 'q' and this must be used for FIPS186-4.</p>

|
<p>In addition to the common parameters that all keytypes should support (see <a href="../man7/provider-keymgmt.html">"Common parameters" in provider-keymgmt(7)</a>), the <b>DSA</b>, <b>DH</b> and <b>DHX</b> keytype implementations support the following.</p>
