+See \fBi2d_ECDSA_SIG\fR\|(3) and \fBd2i_ECDSA_SIG\fR\|(3) for information about encoding
+and decoding \s-1ECDSA\s0 signatures to/from \s-1DER.\s0
+.PP
+All of the functions described below are deprecated. Applications should
+use the higher level \fB\s-1EVP\s0\fR interface such as \fBEVP_DigestSignInit\fR\|(3)
+or \fBEVP_DigestVerifyInit\fR\|(3) instead.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_size()\fR returns the maximum length of a \s-1DER\s0 encoded \s-1ECDSA\s0 signature
+created with the private \s-1EC\s0 key \fIeckey\fR. To obtain the actual signature
+size use \fBEVP_PKEY_sign\fR\|(3) with a \s-1NULL\s0 \fIsig\fR parameter.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_sign()\fR computes a digital signature of the \fIdgstlen\fR bytes hash value
+\&\fIdgst\fR using the private \s-1EC\s0 key \fIeckey\fR. The \s-1DER\s0 encoded signatures is
+stored in \fIsig\fR and its length is returned in \fIsig_len\fR. Note: \fIsig\fR must
+point to ECDSA_size(eckey) bytes of memory. The parameter \fItype\fR is currently
+ignored. \fBECDSA_sign()\fR is wrapper function for \fBECDSA_sign_ex()\fR with \fIkinv\fR
+and \fIrp\fR set to \s-1NULL.\s0
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_do_sign()\fR is similar to \fBECDSA_sign()\fR except the signature is returned
+as a newly allocated \fB\s-1ECDSA_SIG\s0\fR structure (or \s-1NULL\s0 on error). \fBECDSA_do_sign()\fR
+is a wrapper function for \fBECDSA_do_sign_ex()\fR with \fIkinv\fR and \fIrp\fR set to
+\&\s-1NULL.\s0
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_verify()\fR verifies that the signature in \fIsig\fR of size \fIsiglen\fR is a
+valid \s-1ECDSA\s0 signature of the hash value \fIdgst\fR of size \fIdgstlen\fR using the
+public key \fIeckey\fR. The parameter \fItype\fR is ignored.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_do_verify()\fR is similar to \fBECDSA_verify()\fR except the signature is
+presented in the form of a pointer to an \fB\s-1ECDSA_SIG\s0\fR structure.
+.PP
+The remaining functions utilise the internal \fIkinv\fR and \fIr\fR values used
+during signature computation. Most applications will never need to call these
+and some external \s-1ECDSA ENGINE\s0 implementations may not support them at all if
+either \fIkinv\fR or \fIr\fR is not \s-1NULL.\s0
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_sign_setup()\fR may be used to precompute parts of the signing operation.
+\&\fIeckey\fR is the private \s-1EC\s0 key and \fIctx\fR is a pointer to \fB\s-1BN_CTX\s0\fR structure
+(or \s-1NULL\s0). The precomputed values or returned in \fIkinv\fR and \fIrp\fR and can be
+used in a later call to \fBECDSA_sign_ex()\fR or \fBECDSA_do_sign_ex()\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_sign_ex()\fR computes a digital signature of the \fIdgstlen\fR bytes hash value
+\&\fIdgst\fR using the private \s-1EC\s0 key \fIeckey\fR and the optional pre-computed values
+\&\fIkinv\fR and \fIrp\fR. The \s-1DER\s0 encoded signature is stored in \fIsig\fR and its
+length is returned in \fIsig_len\fR. Note: \fIsig\fR must point to ECDSA_size(eckey)
+bytes of memory. The parameter \fItype\fR is ignored.
+.PP
+\&\fBECDSA_do_sign_ex()\fR is similar to \fBECDSA_sign_ex()\fR except the signature is
