4
5DH_size, DH_bits, DH_security_bits - get Diffie-Hellman prime size and
6security bits
7
8=head1 SYNOPSIS
9
10 #include <openssl/dh.h>
11
12 int DH_size(const DH *dh);
13
14 int DH_bits(const DH *dh);
15
16 int DH_security_bits(const DH *dh);
17
18=head1 DESCRIPTION
19
20DH_size() returns the Diffie-Hellman prime size in bytes. It can be used
21to determine how much memory must be allocated for the shared secret
22computed by L<DH_compute_key(3)>.
23
24DH_bits() returns the number of significant bits.
25
26B<dh> and B<dh-E<gt>p> must not be B<NULL>.
27
28DH_security_bits() returns the number of security bits of the given B<dh>
29key. See L<BN_security_bits(3)>.
30
31=head1 RETURN VALUES
32
33DH_size() returns the prime size of Diffie-Hellman in bytes.
34
35DH_bits() returns the number of bits in the key.
36
37DH_security_bits() returns the number of security bits.
