.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBX509_sign()\fR signs certificate \fIx\fR using private key \fIpkey\fR and message
digest \fImd\fR and sets the signature in \fIx\fR. \fBX509_sign_ctx()\fR also signs
certificate \fIx\fR but uses the parameters contained in digest context \fIctx\fR.
.PP
\&\fBX509_REQ_sign()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_sign_ctx()\fR,
\&\fBX509_CRL_sign()\fR, and \fBX509_CRL_sign_ctx()\fR
sign certificate requests and CRLs, respectively.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
\&\fBX509_sign_ctx()\fR is used where the default parameters for the corresponding
public key and digest are not suitable. It can be used to sign keys using
RSA-PSS for example.
.PP
For efficiency reasons and to work around \s-1ASN.1\s0 encoding issues the encoding
of the signed portion of a certificate, certificate request and \s-1CRL\s0 is cached
internally. If the signed portion of the structure is modified the encoding
is not always updated meaning a stale version is sometimes used. This is not
normally a problem because modifying the signed portion will invalidate the
signature and signing will always update the encoding.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
All functions return the size of the signature
in bytes for success and zero for failure.

The \fBX509_sign_ctx()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_sign_ctx()\fR
