 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-This function validates RSA keys. It checks that B<p> and B<q> are
+RSA_check_key_ex() function validates RSA keys.
+It checks that B<p> and B<q> are
 in fact prime, and that B<n = p*q>.
 
+It does not work on RSA public keys that have only the modulus
+and public exponent elements populated.
 It also checks that B<d*e = 1 mod (p-1*q-1)>,
 and that B<dmp1>, B<dmq1> and B<iqmp> are set correctly or are B<NULL>.
+It performs integrity checks on all
+the RSA key material, so the RSA key structure must contain all the private
+key data too.
+Therefore, it cannot be used with any arbitrary RSA key object,
+even if it is otherwise fit for regular RSA operation.
+
+The B<cb> parameter is a callback that will be invoked in the same
+manner as L<BN_is_prime_ex(3)|BN_is_prime_ex(3)>.
 
-As such, this function can not be used with any arbitrary RSA key object,
-even if it is otherwise fit for regular RSA operation. See B<NOTES> for more
-information.
+RSA_check_key() is equivalent to RSA_check_key_ex() with a NULL B<cb>.
 
 =head1 RETURN VALUE
 
-RSA_check_key() returns 1 if B<rsa> is a valid RSA key, and 0 otherwise.
--1 is returned if an error occurs while checking the key.
+RSA_check_key_ex() and RSA_check_key()
+return 1 if B<rsa> is a valid RSA key, and 0 otherwise.
+They return -1 if an error occurs while checking the key.
 
 If the key is invalid or an error occurred, the reason code can be
 obtained using L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>.
