Pauli d42d0a4dc7 Implementation of the ARIA cipher as described in RFC 5794.
This implementation is written in endian agnostic C code. No attempt
at providing machine specific assembly code has been made. This
implementation expands the evptests by including the test cases from
RFC 5794 and ARIA official site rather than providing an individual
test case. Support for ARIA has been integrated into the command line
applications, but not TLS. Implemented modes are CBC, CFB1, CFB8,
CFB128, CTR, ECB and OFB128.

gendsa - generate a DSA private key from a set of parameters

=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B<gendsa> command generates a DSA private key from a DSA parameter file
(which will be typically generated by the B<openssl dsaparam> command).
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-help>
Print out a usage message.
=item B<-out filename>
Output the key to the specified file. If this argument is not specified then
standard output is used.
=item B<-aes128|-aes192|-aes256|-aria128|-aria192|-aria256|-camellia128|-camellia192|-camellia256|-des|-des3|-idea>
These options encrypt the private key with specified
cipher before outputting it. A pass phrase is prompted for.
If none of these options is specified no encryption is used.
=item B<-rand file(s)>
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)>).
Multiple files can be specified separated by an OS-dependent character.
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
all others.
=item B<-engine id>
specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<gendsa>
to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
for all available algorithms.
=item B<paramfile>
This option specifies the DSA parameter file to use. The parameters in this
file determine the size of the private key. DSA parameters can be generated
and examined using the B<openssl dsaparam> command.
=back
=head1 NOTES
DSA key generation is little more than random number generation so it is
much quicker that RSA key generation for example.
