+=head1 NAME
+
+DSA_new, DSA_free - allocate and free DSA objects
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/dsa.h>
+
+ DSA* DSA_new(void);
+
+ void DSA_free(DSA *dsa);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+DSA_new() allocates and initializes a B<DSA> structure. It is equivalent to
+calling DSA_new_method(NULL).
+
+DSA_free() frees the B<DSA> structure and its components. The values are
+erased before the memory is returned to the system.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+If the allocation fails, DSA_new() returns B<NULL> and sets an error
+code that can be obtained by
+L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>. Otherwise it returns a pointer
+to the newly allocated structure.
+
+DSA_free() returns no value.

+DSA_new() and DSA_free() are available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL.
