The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
hidden entirely by defining \fBOPENSSL_API_COMPAT\fR with a suitable version value,
see \fBopenssl_user_macros\fR\|(7):

.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
Applications should instead use \fBEVP_PKEY_get_bits\fR\|(3),
\&\fBEVP_PKEY_get_security_bits\fR\|(3) and \fBEVP_PKEY_get_size\fR\|(3).
.PP
\&\fBDSA_bits()\fR returns the number of bits in key \fIdsa\fR: this is the number
of bits in the \fIp\fR parameter.
.PP
\&\fBDSA_size()\fR returns the maximum size of an ASN.1 encoded DSA signature
for key \fIdsa\fR in bytes. It can be used to determine how much memory must
be allocated for a DSA signature.
.PP
\&\fBDSA_security_bits()\fR returns the number of security bits of the given \fIdsa\fR
key. See \fBBN_security_bits\fR\|(3).
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBDSA_security_bits()\fR returns the number of security bits in the key, or \-1 if
\&\fIdsa\fR doesn't hold any key parameters.
.PP
\&\fBDSA_bits()\fR returns the number of bits in the key, or \-1 if \fIdsa\fR doesn't
hold any key parameters.
.PP
\&\fBDSA_size()\fR returns the signature size in bytes, or \-1 if \fIdsa\fR doesn't
hold any key parameters.
