That discussion is valid only if you insist on using "legacy" rsa_sign or other rsa_priv_dec which have no mechanism for providing context info like padding and hash type. > It is not clear to me what you mean with "the OpenSSL engine interface > does allow using EVP_PKEY_METHOD callbacks instead of rsa_priv_dec etc.". > Can you elaborate (here or on the GitHub issue)? > To add to what Matt wrote: As an example, see my PR for pkcs11-helper: https://github.com/OpenSC/pkcs11-helper/pull/31 This uses a dummy engine and passes the singing operation to the pkcs11 device, but the idea is the same.
