+=head1 NAME
+
+EVP_PKEY_CTX_new, EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id, EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup, EVP_PKEY_CTX_free - public key algorithm context functions.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/evp.h>
+
+ EVP_PKEY_CTX *EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(EVP_PKEY *pkey, ENGINE *e);
+ EVP_PKEY_CTX *EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(int id, ENGINE *e);
+ EVP_PKEY_CTX *EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
+ void EVP_PKEY_CTX_free(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new() function allocates public key algorithm context using
+the algorithm specified in B<pkey> and ENGINE B<e>.
+
+The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id() function allocates public key algorithm context
+using the algorithm specified by B<id> and ENGINE B<e>. It is normally used
+when no B<EVP_PKEY> structure is associated with the operations, for example
+during parameter generation of key genration for some algorithms.
+
+EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup() duplicates the context B<ctx>.
+
+EVP_PKEY_CTX_free() frees up the context B<ctx>.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> structure is an opaque public key algorithm context used
+by the OpenSSL high level public key API. Contexts B<MUST NOT> be shared between
+threads: that is it is not permissible to use the same context simultaneously
+in two threads.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(), EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(), EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup() returns either
+the newly allocated B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> structure of B<NULL> if an error occurred.
+
+EVP_PKEY_CTX_free() does not return a value.
+
+=head1 SEE ALSO
+
+L<EVP_PKEY_new(3)|EVP_PKEY_new(3)>
+
+=head1 HISTORY
+
+These functions were first added to OpenSSL 0.9.9.

+EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init, EVP_PKEY_decrypt - decrypt using a public key algorithm

+=head1 SYNOPSIS

+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init() function initializes a public key algorithm
+context using key B<pkey> for a decryption operation.
+
+The EVP_PKEY_decrypt() function performs a public key decryption operation
+using B<ctx>. The data to be decrypted is specified using the B<in> and
+B<inlen> parameters. If B<out> is B<NULL> then the maximum size of the output
+buffer is written to the B<outlen> parameter. If B<out> is not B<NULL> then
+before the call the B<outlen> parameter should contain the length of the
+B<out> buffer, if the call is successful the decrypted data is written to
+B<out> and the amount of data written to B<outlen>.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+After the call to EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init() algorithm specific control
+operations can be performed to set any appropriate parameters for the
+operation.
+
+The function EVP_PKEY_decrypt() can be called more than once on the same
+context if several operations are performed using the same parameters.
