Hi,

RFC8446:
=================================================
4.2.3.  Signature Algorithms

[...]
-  Implementations that advertise support for RSASSA-PSS (which is
      mandatory in TLS 1.3) MUST be prepared to accept a signature using
      that scheme even when TLS 1.2 is negotiated.  In TLS 1.2,
      RSASSA-PSS is used with RSA cipher suites.

=================================================

The above paragraph gives me an impression that, in TLSv1.2, if
CertificateRequest message advertise 0x0804, then the client can sign
the CertificateVerify message with 0x0804 if client cert is RSA.

0x0804 = rsa_pss_rsae_sha256

Can some one please confirm whether my understanding is correct?

with regards,
Saravanan
