+=head1 NAME
+
+DSA_size, DSA_bits - get DSA signature size or key bits
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/dsa.h>
+
+ int DSA_size(const DSA *dsa);
+ int DSA_bits(const DSA *dsa);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+DSA_size() returns the maximum size of an ASN.1 encoded DSA signature
+for key B<dsa> in bytes. It can be used to determine how much memory must
+be allocated for a DSA signature.
+
+B<dsa-E<gt>q> must not be B<NULL>.
+
+DSA_bits() returns the number of bits in key B<dsa>: this is the number
+of bits in the B<p> parameter.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUE
+
+DSA_size() returns the size in bytes.
+
+DSA_bits() returns the number of bits in the key.
