RSA_size, RSA_bits, RSA_security_bits - get RSA modulus size or security bits
#include <openssl/rsa.h>
Deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, can be hidden entirely by defining OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable version value, see openssl_user_macros(7):
int RSA_size(const RSA *rsa);
int RSA_bits(const RSA *rsa);
int RSA_security_bits(const RSA *rsa)
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated. Applications should instead use EVP_PKEY_size(3), EVP_PKEY_bits(3) and EVP_PKEY_security_bits(3).
RSA_size()
returns the RSA modulus size in bytes. It can be used to
determine how much memory must be allocated for an RSA encrypted
value.
RSA_bits()
returns the number of significant bits.
rsa and rsa->n must not be NULL.
RSA_security_bits()
returns the number of security bits of the given rsa
key. See BN_security_bits(3).
RSA_size()
returns the size of modulus in bytes.
DSA_bits()
returns the number of bits in the key.
RSA_security_bits()
returns the number of security bits.
BN_num_bits(3)
All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
The RSA_bits()
function was added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
