=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_set1_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_set1_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_set1_DH() and
|
|
EVP_PKEY_set1_EC_KEY() set the key referenced by B<pkey> to B<key>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get1_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_get1_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_get1_DH() and
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get1_EC_KEY() return the referenced key in B<pkey> or
|
|
B<NULL> if the key is not of the correct type.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get0_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_get0_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_get0_DH() and
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get0_EC_KEY() also return the referenced key in B<pkey> or
|
|
B<NULL> if the key is not of the correct type but the reference
|
|
count of the returned key is B<not> incremented and so must not
|
|
be freed up after use.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DH()
|
|
and EVP_PKEY_assign_EC_KEY() also set the referenced key to B<key>
|
|
however these use the supplied B<key> internally and so B<key>
|
|
will be freed when the parent B<pkey> is freed.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_base_id() returns the type of B<pkey>. For example
|
|
an RSA key will return B<EVP_PKEY_RSA>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_id() returns the actual OID associated with B<pkey>. Historically keys
|
|
using the same algorithm could use different OIDs. For example an RSA key could
|
|
use the OIDs corresponding to the NIDs B<NID_rsaEncryption> (equivalent to
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY_RSA>) or B<NID_rsa> (equivalent to B<EVP_PKEY_RSA2>). The use of
|
|
alternative non-standard OIDs is now rare so B<EVP_PKEY_RSA2> et al are not
|
|
often seen in practice.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_type() returns the underlying type of the NID B<type>. For example
|
|
EVP_PKEY_type(EVP_PKEY_RSA2) will return B<EVP_PKEY_RSA>.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
In accordance with the OpenSSL naming convention the key obtained
|
|
from or assigned to the B<pkey> using the B<1> functions must be
|
|
freed as well as B<pkey>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DH()
|
|
and EVP_PKEY_assign_EC_KEY() are implemented as macros.
|
|
|
|
Most applications wishing to know a key type will simply call
|
|
EVP_PKEY_base_id() and will not care about the actual type:
|
|
which will be identical in almost all cases.
|
|
|
|
Previous versions of this document suggested using EVP_PKEY_type(pkey->type)
|
|
to determine the type of a key. Since B<EVP_PKEY> is now opaque this
|
|
is no longer possible: the equivalent is EVP_PKEY_base_id(pkey).
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_set1_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_set1_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_set1_DH() and
|
|
EVP_PKEY_set1_EC_KEY() return 1 for success or 0 for failure.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get1_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_get1_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_get1_DH() and
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get1_EC_KEY() return the referenced key or B<NULL> if
|
|
an error occurred.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DH()
|
|
and EVP_PKEY_assign_EC_KEY() return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_base_id(), EVP_PKEY_id() and EVP_PKEY_type() return a key
|
|
type or B<NID_undef> (equivalently B<EVP_PKEY_NONE>) on error.
