RSA_SIZE(3) OpenSSL RSA_SIZE(3)
NAME
RSA_size, RSA_bits, RSA_security_bits - get RSA modulus size or
security bits
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/rsa.h>
int RSA_size(const RSA *rsa);
int RSA_bits(const RSA *rsa);
int RSA_security_bits(const RSA *rsa)
DESCRIPTION
RSA_size() returns the RSA modulus size in bytes. It can be used to
determine how much memory must be allocated for an RSA encrypted value.
RSA_bits() returns the number of significant bits.
rsa and rsa->n must not be NULL.
RSA_security_bits() returns the number of security bits of the given
rsa key. See BN_security_bits(3).
RETURN VALUES
RSA_size() returns the size of modulus in bytes.
DSA_bits() returns the number of bits in the key.
RSA_security_bits() returns the number of security bits.

HISTORY
The RSA_bits() function was added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
