=head1 NAME

EVP_SIGNATURE-ED25519,
EVP_SIGNATURE-ED448,
Ed25519,
Ed448
- EVP_PKEY Ed25519 and Ed448 support

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The B<Ed25519> and B<Ed448> EVP_PKEY implementation supports key generation,
one-shot digest sign and digest verify using PureEdDSA and B<Ed25519> or B<Ed448>
(see RFC8032). It has associated private and public key formats compatible with
RFC 8410.

=head2 ED25519 and ED448 Signature Parameters

No additional parameters can be set during one-shot signing or verification.
In particular, because PureEdDSA is used, a digest must B<NOT> be specified when
signing or verifying.
See L<EVP_PKEY-X25519(7)> for information related to B<X25519> and B<X448> keys.

The following signature parameters can be retrieved using
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_params().

=item "algorithm-id" (B<OSSL_SIGNATURE_PARAM_ALGORITHM_ID>) <octet string>

The parameters are described in L<provider-signature(7)>.

=head1 NOTES

The PureEdDSA algorithm does not support the streaming mechanism
of other signature algorithms using, for example, EVP_DigestUpdate().
The message to sign or verify must be passed using the one-shot
EVP_DigestSign() and EVP_DigestVerify() functions.

When calling EVP_DigestSignInit() or EVP_DigestVerifyInit(), the
digest I<type> parameter B<MUST> be set to NULL.

Applications wishing to sign certificates (or other structures such as
CRLs or certificate requests) using Ed25519 or Ed448 can either use X509_sign()
or X509_sign_ctx() in the usual way.

Ed25519 or Ed448 private keys can be set directly using
L<EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key(3)> or loaded from a PKCS#8 private key file
using L<PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey(3)> (or similar function). Completely new keys
can also be generated (see the example below). Setting a private key also sets
the associated public key.

Ed25519 or Ed448 public keys can be set directly using
L<EVP_PKEY_new_raw_public_key(3)> or loaded from a SubjectPublicKeyInfo
structure in a PEM file using L<PEM_read_bio_PUBKEY(3)> (or similar function).

Ed25519 and Ed448 can be tested with the L<openssl-speed(1)> application
since version 1.1.1.
Valid algorithm names are B<ed25519>, B<ed448> and B<eddsa>. If B<eddsa> is
specified, then both Ed25519 and Ed448 are benchmarked.

=head1 EXAMPLES

To sign a message using a ED25519 or ED448 key:

    void do_sign(EVP_PKEY *ed_key, unsigned char *msg, size_t msg_len)
    {
        size_t sig_len;
        unsigned char *sig = NULL;
        EVP_MD_CTX *md_ctx = EVP_MD_CTX_new();

        EVP_DigestSignInit(md_ctx, NULL, NULL, NULL, ed_key);
        /* Calculate the requires size for the signature by passing a NULL buffer */
        EVP_DigestSign(md_ctx, NULL, &sig_len, msg, msg_len);
        sig = OPENSSL_zalloc(sig_len);

        EVP_DigestSign(md_ctx, sig, &sig_len, msg, msg_len);
        ...
        OPENSSL_free(sig);
        EVP_MD_CTX_free(md_ctx);
    }
