=head1 NAME

EVP_SIGNATURE-ECDSA - The EVP_PKEY ECDSA signature implementation.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Support for computing ECDSA signatures.
See L<EVP_PKEY-EC(7)> for information related to EC keys.

=head2 ECDSA Signature Parameters

The following signature parameters can be set using EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params().
This may be called after EVP_PKEY_sign_init() or EVP_PKEY_verify_init(),
and before calling EVP_PKEY_sign() or EVP_PKEY_verify().

=item "properties" (B<OSSL_SIGNATURE_PARAM_PROPERTIES>) <UTF8 string>

=item "nonce-type" (B<OSSL_SIGNATURE_PARAM_NONCE_TYPE>) <unsigned integer>

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

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