Hello,

this patch set adds support for generating DSA key pairs via PKCS#11.

The former code was incorrectly passing CKA_MODULUS_BITS directy to the
C_GenerateKeyPair function. However, according to the specification, the
implementation expects CKA_PRIME, CKA_SUBPRIME, and CKA_BASE attributes.

The new code uses CKM_DSA_PARAMETER_GEN mechanism for C_GenerateKey to generate
the DSA parameters to be later used with C_GenerateKeyPair.

The implementation has been tested with SoftHSM 2.0.

Best regards,

Jan
