Federico,
You can either encode and decode CopyKey (i.e., call i2d followed by d2i) or increment
the rsa_st's references element using CRYPTO_add. For example:
CRYPTO_add (CopyKey-references, 1, CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA);
See crypto/threads/mttest.c for setting up mutexes for a multithreaded application.

Subject:rsa_st copy function
Greetings!
I have been searching the OpenSSL headers for a copy function, which
would take a const pointer to a rsa_st structure and return another
pointer to a copy of it, but have not found any. My question is why
isn't there such a function? Are there any tricks in the copying
process of the mentioned struct? I wrote a function which reads:
RSA* RsaKeyCopy (const RSA* CopyKey)
{
// Allocate memory
RSA*retValue = RSA_new();
// The method pointer is copied as a reference, the rest will be
copied
// by value.
retValue-pad = CopyKey-pad;
retValue-version = CopyKey-version;
retValue-meth = CopyKey-meth;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-n, CopyKey-n))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-e, CopyKey-e))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-d, CopyKey-d))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-p, CopyKey-p))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-q, CopyKey-q))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-e, CopyKey-e))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-dmp1, CopyKey-dmp1))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-dmq1, CopyKey-dmq1))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-iqmp, CopyKey-iqmp))
return NULL;
retValue-references = CopyKey-references;
retValue-flags = CopyKey-flags;
retValue-bignum_data = NULL;
// These are cache values copied only to avoid possible trouble.
BN_MONT_CTX_copy(retValue-_method_mod_n, CopyKey-_method_mod_n);
BN_MONT_CTX_copy(retValue-_method_mod_p, CopyKey-_method_mod_p);
BN_MONT_CTX_copy(retValue-_method_mod_q, CopyKey-_method_mod_q);
// Copy the BN_BLINDING field
retValue-blinding-init = CopyKey-blinding-init;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-blinding-A, CopyKey-blinding-A))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-blinding-Ai, CopyKey-blinding-Ai))
return NULL;
if (!BN_copy(retValue-blinding-mod, CopyKey-blinding-mod))
return NULL;
// The CRYPTO_EX_DATA ex_data includes a stack, which will not be
copied
// here (and let's hope OpenSSL does the trick without it.)
return retValue;
}
My question is whether this should do a copy of the struct, or if there
is something (important) missing.
Thanks in advance for the help!
