<h1 id="NAME">NAME</h1>
<p>EVP_PKEY_verify_recover_init, EVP_PKEY_verify_recover - recover signature using a public key algorithm</p>
<h1 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h1>
<pre><code> #include <openssl/evp.h>
int EVP_PKEY_verify_recover_init(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
int EVP_PKEY_verify_recover(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx,
unsigned char *rout, size_t *routlen,
const unsigned char *sig, size_t siglen);</code></pre>
<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>
<p>The EVP_PKEY_verify_recover_init() function initializes a public key algorithm context using key <b>pkey</b> for a verify recover operation.</p>
<p>The EVP_PKEY_verify_recover() function recovers signed data using <b>ctx</b>. The signature is specified using the <b>sig</b> and <b>siglen</b> parameters. If <b>rout</b> is <b>NULL</b> then the maximum size of the output buffer is written to the <b>routlen</b> parameter. If <b>rout</b> is not <b>NULL</b> then before the call the <b>routlen</b> parameter should contain the length of the <b>rout</b> buffer, if the call is successful recovered data is written to <b>rout</b> and the amount of data written to <b>routlen</b>.</p>
<h1 id="NOTES">NOTES</h1>
<p>Normally an application is only interested in whether a signature verification operation is successful in those cases the EVP_verify() function should be used.</p>
<p>Sometimes however it is useful to obtain the data originally signed using a signing operation. Only certain public key algorithms can recover a signature in this way (for example RSA in PKCS padding mode).</p>
<p>After the call to EVP_PKEY_verify_recover_init() algorithm specific control operations can be performed to set any appropriate parameters for the operation.</p>
<p>The function EVP_PKEY_verify_recover() can be called more than once on the same context if several operations are performed using the same parameters.</p>
<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>
<p>EVP_PKEY_verify_recover_init() and EVP_PKEY_verify_recover() return 1 for success and 0 or a negative value for failure. In particular a return value of -2 indicates the operation is not supported by the public key algorithm.</p>
<h1 id="EXAMPLES">EXAMPLES</h1>
<p>Recover digest originally signed using PKCS#1 and SHA256 digest:</p>
