  83. .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
  84. \&\fBRSA_bits()\fR returns the number of significant bits.
  85. .PP
  86. \&\fBrsa\fR and \fBrsa\->n\fR must not be \fBNULL\fR.
  87. .PP
  88. The remaining functions described on this page are deprecated.
  89. Applications should instead use \fBEVP_PKEY_get_size\fR\|(3), \fBEVP_PKEY_get_bits\fR\|(3)
  90. and \fBEVP_PKEY_get_security_bits\fR\|(3).
  91. .PP
  92. \&\fBRSA_size()\fR returns the RSA modulus size in bytes. It can be used to
  93. determine how much memory must be allocated for an RSA encrypted
  94. value.
  95. .PP
  96. \&\fBRSA_security_bits()\fR returns the number of security bits of the given \fBrsa\fR
  97. key. See \fBBN_security_bits\fR\|(3).
  98. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  99. .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
  100. \&\fBRSA_bits()\fR returns the number of bits in the key.
  101. .PP
  102. \&\fBRSA_size()\fR returns the size of modulus in bytes.
  103. .PP
  104. \&\fBRSA_security_bits()\fR returns the number of security bits.

  108. .SH HISTORY
  109. .IX Header "HISTORY"
  110. The \fBRSA_size()\fR and \fBRSA_security_bits()\fR functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
  111. .PP
  112. The \fBRSA_bits()\fR function was added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
