    .. warning::

        With the exception of the integers contained in the

Handling partial RSA private keys
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you are trying to load RSA private keys yourself you may find that not all
parameters required by ``RSAPrivateNumbers`` are available. In particular the
`Chinese Remainder Theorem`_ (CRT) values ``dmp1``, ``dmq1``, ``iqmp`` may be
missing or present in a different form. For example `OpenPGP`_ does not include
the ``iqmp``, ``dmp1`` or ``dmq1`` parameters.

The following functions are provided for users who want to work with keys like
this without having to do the math themselves.

.. function:: rsa_crt_iqmp(p, q)

    .. versionadded:: 0.4

    Generates the ``iqmp`` (also known as ``qInv``) parameter from the RSA
    primes ``p`` and ``q``.

.. function:: rsa_crt_dmp1(private_exponent, p)

    .. versionadded:: 0.4

    Generates the ``dmp1`` parameter from the RSA private exponent and prime
    ``p``.

.. function:: rsa_crt_dmq1(private_exponent, q)

    .. versionadded:: 0.4

    Generates the ``dmq1`` parameter from the RSA private exponent and prime
    ``q``.

Deprecated Concrete Classes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

These classes were deprecated in version 0.5 in favor of backend specific
providers of the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.RSAPrivateKey` and
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.RSAPublicKey` interfaces.

.. class:: RSAPrivateKey(p, q, private_exponent, dmp1, dmq1, iqmp, public_exponent, modulus)

    .. versionadded:: 0.2

    .. deprecated:: 0.5

    An RSA private key is required for decryption and signing of messages.

    You should use :func:`generate_private_key` to generate new keys.

    .. warning::
        This method only checks a limited set of properties of its arguments.
        Using an RSA private key that you do not trust or with incorrect
        parameters may lead to insecure operation, crashes, and other undefined

        generated with software you trust.
