yields a false positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.

+If B<cb> is not B<NULL>, B<BN_GENCB_call(cb, 1, j)> is called
after the j-th iteration (j = 0, 1, ...). B<ctx> is a

freeing the structure in a loop), or B<NULL>.
+BN_GENCB_call calls the callback function held in the B<BN_GENCB> structure
+and passes the ints B<a> and B<b> as arguments. There are two types of
+B<BN_GENCB> structure that are supported: "new" style and "old" style. New
+programs should prefer the "new" style, whilst the "old" style is provided
+for backwards compatibility purposes.
+
+For "new" style callbacks a BN_GENCB structure should be initialised with a
+call to BN_GENCB_set, where B<gencb> is a B<BN_GENCB *>, B<callback> is of
+type B<int (*callback)(int, int, BN_GENCB *)> and B<cb_arg> is a B<void *>.
+"Old" style callbacks are the same except they are initialised with a call
+to BN_GENCB_set_old and B<callback> is of type
+B<void (*callback)(int, int, void *)>.
+
+A callback is invoked through a call to B<BN_GENCB_call>. This will check
+the type of the callback and will invoke B<callback(a, b, gencb)> for new
+style callbacks or B<callback(a, b, cb_arg)> for old style.
+
+BN_generate_prime (deprecated) works in the same way as
+BN_generate_prime_ex but expects an old style callback function
+directly in the B<callback> parameter, and an argument to pass to it in
+the B<cb_arg>. Similarly BN_is_prime and BN_is_prime_fasttest are
+deprecated and can be compared to BN_is_prime_ex and
+BN_is_prime_fasttest_ex respectively.

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The Elliptic Curve library provides a number of different implementations through a single common interface.
+When constructing a curve using EC_GROUP_new (see L<EC_GROUP_new(3)|EC_GROUP_new(3)>) an
+implementation method must be provided. The functions described here all return a const pointer to an
+B<EC_METHOD> structure that can be passed to EC_GROUP_NEW. It is important that the correct implementation
+type for the form of curve selected is used.
+
+For F2^m curves there is only one implementation choice, i.e. EC_GF2_simple_method.
+
+For Fp curves the lowest common denominator implementation is the EC_GFp_simple_method implementation. All
+other implementations are based on this one. EC_GFp_mont_method builds on EC_GFp_simple_method but adds the
+use of montgomery multiplication (see L<BN_mod_mul_montgomery(3)|BN_mod_mul_montgomery(3)>). EC_GFp_nist_method
+offers an implementation optimised for use with NIST recommended curves (NIST curves are available through
+EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name as described in L<EC_GROUP_new(3)|EC_GROUP_new(3)>).
+
+The functions EC_GFp_nistp224_method, EC_GFp_nistp256_method and EC_GFp_nistp521_method offer 64 bit
+optimised implementations for the NIST P224, P256 and P521 curves respectively. Note, however, that these
+implementations are not available on all platforms.
+
+EC_METHOD_get_field_type identifies what type of field the EC_METHOD structure supports, which will be either
+F2^m or Fp. If the field type is Fp then the value B<NID_X9_62_prime_field> is returned. If the field type is
+F2^m then the value B<NID_X9_62_characteristic_two_field> is returned. These values are defined in the
+obj_mac.h header file.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+All EC_GFp* functions and EC_GF2m_simple_method always return a const pointer to an EC_METHOD structure.
+
+EC_METHOD_get_field_type returns an integer that identifies the type of field the EC_METHOD structure supports.

+EC_GROUP_copy copies the curve B<src> into B<dst>. Both B<src> and B<dst> must use the same EC_METHOD.
+
+EC_GROUP_dup creates a new EC_GROUP object and copies the content from B<src> to the newly created
+EC_GROUP object.
+
+EC_GROUP_method_of obtains the EC_METHOD of B<group>.
+
+EC_GROUP_set_generator sets curve paramaters that must be agreed by all participants using the curve. These
+paramaters include the B<generator>, the B<order> and the B<cofactor>. The B<generator> is a well defined point on the
+curve chosen for cryptographic operations. Integers used for point multiplications will be between 0 and
+n-1 where n is the B<order>. The B<order> multipied by the B<cofactor> gives the number of points on the curve.
+
+EC_GROUP_get0_generator returns the generator for the identified B<group>.
+
+The functions EC_GROUP_get_order and EC_GROUP_get_cofactor populate the provided B<order> and B<cofactor> parameters
+with the respective order and cofactors for the B<group>.
+
+The functions EC_GROUP_set_curve_name and EC_GROUP_get_curve_name, set and get the NID for the curve respectively
+(see L<EC_GROUP_new(3)|EC_GROUP_new(3)>). If a curve does not have a NID associated with it, then EC_GROUP_get_curve_name
+will return 0.
+
+The asn1_flag value on a curve is used to determine whether there is a specific ASN1 OID to describe the curve or not.
+If the asn1_flag is 1 then this is a named curve with an associated ASN1 OID. If not then asn1_flag is 0. The functions
+EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag and EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag get and set the status of the asn1_flag for the curve. If set then
+the curve_name must also be set.
+
+The point_coversion_form for a curve controls how EC_POINT data is encoded as ASN1 as defined in X9.62 (ECDSA).
+point_conversion_form_t is an enum defined as follows:
+
+ typedef enum {
+ /** the point is encoded as z||x, where the octet z specifies
+ * which solution of the quadratic equation y is */
+ POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED = 2,
+ /** the point is encoded as z||x||y, where z is the octet 0x02 */
+ POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED = 4,
+ /** the point is encoded as z||x||y, where the octet z specifies
+ * which solution of the quadratic equation y is */
+ POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID = 6
+ } point_conversion_form_t;
+
+
+For POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED the point is encoded as an octet signifying the UNCOMPRESSED form has been used followed by
+the octets for x, followed by the octets for y.
+
+For any given x co-ordinate for a point on a curve it is possible to derive two possible y values. For
+POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED the point is encoded as an octet signifying that the COMPRESSED form has been used AND which of
+the two possible solutions for y has been used, followed by the octets for x.
+
+For POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID the point is encoded as an octet signifying the HYBRID form has been used AND which of the two
+possible solutions for y has been used, followed by the octets for x, followed by the octets for y.
+
+The functions EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form and EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form set and get the point_conversion_form
+for the curve respectively.
+
+ANSI X9.62 (ECDSA standard) defines a method of generating the curve parameter b from a random number. This provides advantages
+in that a parameter obtained in this way is highly unlikely to be susceptible to special purpose attacks, or have any trapdoors in it.
+If the seed is present for a curve then the b parameter was generated in a verifiable fashion using that seed. The OpenSSL EC library
+does not use this seed value but does enable you to inspect it using EC_GROUP_get0_seed. This returns a pointer to a memory block
+containing the seed that was used. The length of the memory block can be obtained using EC_GROUP_get_seed_len. A number of the
+builtin curves within the library provide seed values that can be obtained. It is also possible to set a custom seed using
+EC_GROUP_set_seed and passing a pointer to a memory block, along with the length of the seed. Again, the EC library will not use
+this seed value, although it will be preserved in any ASN1 based communications.
+
+EC_GROUP_get_degree gets the degree of the field. For Fp fields this will be the number of bits in p. For F2^m fields this will be
+the value m.
+
+The function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant calculates the discriminant for the curve and verifies that it is valid.
+For a curve defined over Fp the discriminant is given by the formula 4*a^3 + 27*b^2 whilst for F2^m curves the discriminant is
+simply b. In either case for the curve to be valid the discriminant must be non zero.
+
+The function EC_GROUP_check performs a number of checks on a curve to verify that it is valid. Checks performed include
+verifying that the discriminant is non zero; that a generator has been defined; that the generator is on the curve and has
+the correct order.
+
+EC_GROUP_cmp compares B<a> and B<b> to determine whether they represent the same curve or not.
+
+The functions EC_GROUP_get_basis_type, EC_GROUP_get_trinomial_basis and EC_GROUP_get_pentanomial_basis should only be called for curves
+defined over an F2^m field. Addition and multiplication operations within an F2^m field are performed using an irreducible polynomial
+function f(x). This function is either a trinomial of the form:
+
+f(x) = x^m + x^k + 1 with m > k >= 1
+
+or a pentanomial of the form:
+
+f(x) = x^m + x^k3 + x^k2 + x^k1 + 1 with m > k3 > k2 > k1 >= 1
+
+The function EC_GROUP_get_basis_type returns a NID identifying whether a trinomial or pentanomial is in use for the field. The
+function EC_GROUP_get_trinomial_basis must only be called where f(x) is of the trinomial form, and returns the value of B<k>. Similary
+the function EC_GROUP_get_pentanomial_basis must only be called where f(x) is of the pentanomial form, and returns the values of B<k1>,
+B<k2> and B<k3> respectively.
+

+
+EC_GROUP_get0_seed returns a pointer to the seed that was used to generate the parameter b, or NULL if the seed is not
+specified. EC_GROUP_get_seed_len returns the length of the seed or 0 if the seed is not specified.

+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Within the library there are two forms of elliptic curve that are of interest. The first form is those defined over the
+prime field Fp. The elements of Fp are the integers 0 to p-1, where p is a prime number. This gives us a revised
+elliptic curve equation as follows:
+
+y^2 mod p = x^3 +ax + b mod p
+
+The second form is those defined over a binary field F2^m where the elements of the field are integers of length at
+most m bits. For this form the elliptic curve equation is modified to:
+
+y^2 + xy = x^3 + ax^2 + b (where b != 0)
+
+Operations in a binary field are performed relative to an B<irreducible polynomial>. All such curves with OpenSSL
+use a trinomial or a pentanomial for this parameter.
+
+A new curve can be constructed by calling EC_GROUP_new, using the implementation provided by B<meth> (see
+L<EC_GFp_simple_method(3)|EC_GFp_simple_method(3)>). It is then necessary to call either EC_GROUP_set_curve_GFp or
+EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m as appropriate to create a curve defined over Fp or over F2^m respectively.
+
+EC_GROUP_set_curve_GFp sets the curve parameters B<p>, B<a> and B<b> for a curve over Fp stored in B<group>.
+EC_group_get_curve_GFp obtains the previously set curve parameters.
+
+EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m sets the equivalent curve parameters for a curve over F2^m. In this case B<p> represents
+the irreducible polybnomial - each bit represents a term in the polynomial. Therefore there will either be three
+or five bits set dependant on whether the polynomial is a trinomial or a pentanomial.
+EC_group_get_curve_GF2m obtains the previously set curve parameters.
+
+The functions EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp and EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m are shortcuts for calling EC_GROUP_new and the
+appropriate EC_group_set_curve function. An appropriate default implementation method will be used.
+
+Whilst the library can be used to create any curve using the functions described above, there are also a number of
+predefined curves that are available. In order to obtain a list of all of the predefined curves, call the function
+EC_get_builtin_curves. The parameter B<r> should be an array of EC_builtin_curve structures of size B<nitems>. The function
+will populate the B<r> array with information about the builtin curves. If B<nitems> is less than the total number of
+curves available, then the first B<nitems> curves will be returned. Otherwise the total number of curves will be
+provided. The return value is the total number of curves available (whether that number has been populated in B<r> or
+not). Passing a NULL B<r>, or setting B<nitems> to 0 will do nothing other than return the total number of curves available.
+The EC_builtin_curve structure is defined as follows:
+
+ typedef struct {
+ int nid;
+ const char *comment;
+ } EC_builtin_curve;
+
+Each EC_builtin_curve item has a unique integer id (B<nid>), and a human readable comment string describing the curve.
+
+In order to construct a builtin curve use the function EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name and provide the B<nid> of the curve to
+be constructed.
+
+EC_GROUP_free frees the memory associated with the EC_GROUP.
+
+EC_GROUP_clear_free destroys any sensitive data held within the EC_GROUP and then frees its memory.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+All EC_GROUP_new* functions return a pointer to the newly constructed group, or NULL on error.
+
+EC_get_builtin_curves returns the number of builtin curves that are available.
+
+EC_GROUP_set_curve_GFp, EC_GROUP_get_curve_GFp, EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m, EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m return 1 on success or 0 on error.

+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+An EC_KEY represents a public key and (optionaly) an associated private key. A new EC_KEY (with no associated curve) can be constructed by calling EC_KEY_new.
+The reference count for the newly created EC_KEY is initially set to 1. A curve can be associated with the EC_KEY by calling
+EC_KEY_set_group.
+
+Alternatively a new EC_KEY can be constructed by calling EC_KEY_new_by_curve_name and supplying the nid of the associated curve. Refer to L<EC_GROUP_new(3)|EC_GROUP_new(3)> for a description of curve names. This function simply wraps calls to EC_KEY_new and
+EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name.
+
+Calling EC_KEY_free decrements the reference count for the EC_KEY object, and if it has dropped to zero then frees the memory associated
+with it.
+
+EC_KEY_copy copies the contents of the EC_KEY in B<src> into B<dest>.
+
+EC_KEY_dup creates a new EC_KEY object and copies B<ec_key> into it.
+
+EC_KEY_up_ref increments the reference count associated with the EC_KEY object.
+
+EC_KEY_generate_key generates a new public and private key for the supplied B<eckey> object. B<eckey> must have an EC_GROUP object
+associated with it before calling this function. The private key is a random integer (0 < priv_key < order, where order is the order
+of the EC_GROUP object). The public key is an EC_POINT on the curve calculated by multiplying the generator for the curve by the
+private key.
+
+EC_KEY_check_key performs various sanity checks on the EC_KEY object to confirm that it is valid.
+
+EC_KEY_set_public_key_affine_coordinates sets the public key for B<key> based on its affine co-ordinates, i.e. it constructs an EC_POINT
+object based on the supplied B<x> and B<y> values and sets the public key to be this EC_POINT. It will also performs certain sanity checks
+on the key to confirm that it is valid.
+
+The functions EC_KEY_get0_group, EC_KEY_set_group, EC_KEY_get0_private_key, EC_KEY_set_private_key, EC_KEY_get0_public_key, and EC_KEY_set_public_key get and set the EC_GROUP object, the private key and the EC_POINT public key for the B<key> respectively.
+
+The functions EC_KEY_get_enc_flags and EC_KEY_set_enc_flags get and set the value of the encoding flags for the B<key>. There are two encoding
+flags currently defined - EC_PKEY_NO_PARAMETERS and EC_PKEY_NO_PUBKEY. These flags define the behaviour of how the B<key> is
+converted into ASN1 in a call to i2d_ECPrivateKey. If EC_PKEY_NO_PARAMETERS is set then the public parameters for the curve are not encoded
+along with the private key. If EC_PKEY_NO_PUBKEY is set then the public key is not encoded along with the private key.
+
+The functions EC_KEY_get_conv_form and EC_KEY_set_conv_form get and set the point_conversion_form for the B<key>. For a description
+of point_conversion_forms please refer to L<EC_POINT_new(3)|EC_POINT_new(3)>.
+
+EC_KEY_insert_key_method_data and EC_KEY_get_key_method_data enable the caller to associate arbitary additional data specific to the
+elliptic curve scheme being used with the EC_KEY object. This data is treated as a "black box" by the ec library. The data to be stored by EC_KEY_insert_key_method_data is provided in the B<data> parameter, which must have have associated functions for duplicating, freeing and "clear_freeing" the data item. If a subsequent EC_KEY_get_key_method_data call is issued, the functions for duplicating, freeing and "clear_freeing" the data item must be provided again, and they must be the same as they were when the data item was inserted.
+
+EC_KEY_set_flags sets the flags in the B<flags> parameter on the EC_KEY object. Any flags that are already set are left set. The currently defined standard flags are EC_FLAG_NON_FIPS_ALLOW and EC_FLAG_FIPS_CHECKED. In addition there is the flag EC_FLAG_COFACTOR_ECDH which is specific to ECDH and is defined in ecdh.h. EC_KEY_get_flags returns the current flags that are set for this EC_KEY. EC_KEY_clear_flags clears the flags indicated by the B<flags> parameter. All other flags are left in their existing state.
+
+EC_KEY_set_asn1_flag sets the asn1_flag on the underlying EC_GROUP object (if set). Refer to L<EC_GROUP_copy(3)|EC_GROUP_copy(3)> for further information on the asn1_flag.
+
+EC_KEY_precompute_mult stores multiples of the underlying EC_GROUP generator for faster point multiplication. See also L<EC_POINT_add(3)|EC_POINT_add(3)>.
+
+

+
+EC_KEY_new, EC_KEY_new_by_curve_name and EC_KEY_dup return a pointer to the newly created EC_KEY object, or NULL on error.
+

+
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+EC_POINT_add adds the two points B<a> and B<b> and places the result in B<r>. Similarly EC_POINT_dbl doubles the point B<a> and places the
+result in B<r>. In both cases it is valid for B<r> to be one of B<a> or B<b>.
+
+EC_POINT_invert calculates the inverse of the supplied point B<a>. The result is placed back in B<a>.
+
+The function EC_POINT_is_at_infinity tests whether the supplied point is at infinity or not.
+
+EC_POINT_is_on_curve tests whether the supplied point is on the curve or not.
+
+EC_POINT_cmp compares the two supplied points and tests whether or not they are equal.
+
+The functions EC_POINT_make_affine and EC_POINTs_make_affine force the internal representation of the EC_POINT(s) into the affine
+co-ordinate system. In the case of EC_POINTs_make_affine the value B<num> provides the number of points in the array B<points> to be
+forced.
+
+EC_POINT_mul calculates the value generator * B<n> + B<q> * B<m> and stores the result in B<r>. The value B<n> may be NULL in which case the result is just B<q> * B<m>.
+
+EC_POINTs_mul calculates the value generator * B<n> + B<q[0]> * B<m[0]> + ... + B<q[num-1]> * B<m[num-1]>. As for EC_POINT_mul the value
+B<n> may be NULL.

+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+An EC_POINT represents a point on a curve. A new point is constructed by calling the function EC_POINT_new and providing the B<group>
+object that the point relates to.
+
+EC_POINT_free frees the memory associated with the EC_POINT.
+
+EC_POINT_clear_free destroys any sensitive data held within the EC_POINT and then frees its memory.
+
+EC_POINT_copy copies the point B<src> into B<dst>. Both B<src> and B<dst> must use the same EC_METHOD.
+
+EC_POINT_dup creates a new EC_POINT object and copies the content from B<src> to the newly created
+EC_POINT object.
+
+EC_POINT_method_of obtains the EC_METHOD associated with B<point>.
+
+A valid point on a curve is the special point at infinity. A point is set to be at infinity by calling EC_POINT_set_to_infinity.
+
+The affine co-ordinates for a point describe a point in terms of its x and y position. The functions
+EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GFp and EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m set the B<x> and B<y> co-ordinates for the point
+B<p> defined over the curve given in B<group>.
+
+As well as the affine co-ordinates, a point can alternatively be described in terms of its Jacobian
+projective co-ordinates (for Fp curves only). Jacobian projective co-ordinates are expressed as three values x, y and z. Working in
+this co-ordinate system provides more efficient point multiplication operations.
+A mapping exists between Jacobian projective co-ordinates and affine co-ordinates. A Jacobian projective co-ordinate (x, y, z) can be written as an affine co-ordinate as (x/(z^2), y/(z^3)). Conversion to Jacobian projective to affine co-ordinates is simple. The co-ordinate (x, y) is
+mapped to (x, y, 1). To set or get the projective co-ordinates use EC_POINT_set_Jprojective_coordinates_GFp and
+EC_POINT_get_Jprojective_coordinates_GFp respectively.
+
+Points can also be described in terms of their compressed co-ordinates. For a point (x, y), for any given value for x such that the point is
+on the curve there will only ever be two possible values for y. Therefore a point can be set using the EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GFp
+and EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m functions where B<x> is the x co-ordinate and B<y_bit> is a value 0 or 1 to identify which of
+the two possible values for y should be used.
+
+In addition EC_POINTs can be converted to and from various external representations. Supported representations are octet strings, BIGNUMs and hexadecimal. The format of the external representation is described by the point_conversion_form. See L<EC_GROUP_copy(3)|EC_GROUP_copy(3)> for
+a description of point_conversion_form. Octet strings are stored in a buffer along with an associated buffer length. A point held in a BIGNUM is calculated by converting the point to an octet string and then converting that octet string into a BIGNUM integer. Points in hexadecimal format are stored in a NULL terminated character string where each character is one of the printable values 0-9 or A-F (or a-f).
+
+The functions EC_POINT_point2oct, EC_POINT_oct2point, EC_POINT_point2bn, EC_POINT_bn2point, EC_POINT_point2hex and EC_POINT_hex2point convert
+from and to EC_POINTs for the formats: octet string, BIGNUM and hexadecimal respectively.
+
+The function EC_POINT_point2oct must be supplied with a buffer long enough to store the octet string. The return value provides the number of
+octets stored. Calling the function with a NULL buffer will not perform the conversion but will still return the required buffer length.
+
+The function EC_POINT_point2hex will allocate sufficient memory to store the hexadecimal string. It is the caller's responsibility to free
+this memory with a subsequent call to OPENSSL_free().
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+EC_POINT_new and EC_POINT_dup return the newly allocated EC_POINT or NULL on error.
+
+The following functions return 1 on success or 0 on error: EC_POINT_copy, EC_POINT_set_to_infinity, EC_POINT_set_Jprojective_coordinates_GFp,
+EC_POINT_get_Jprojective_coordinates_GFp, EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GFp, EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GFp,
+EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GFp, EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m, EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m,
+EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m and EC_POINT_oct2point.
+
+EC_POINT_method_of returns the EC_METHOD associated with the supplied EC_POINT.
+
+EC_POINT_point2oct returns the length of the required buffer, or 0 on error.
+
+EC_POINT_point2bn returns the pointer to the BIGNUM supplied, or NULL on error.
+
+EC_POINT_bn2point returns the pointer to the EC_POINT supplied, or NULL on error.
+
+EC_POINT_point2hex returns a pointer to the hex string, or NULL on error.

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This library provides an extensive set of functions for performing operations on elliptic curves over finite fields.
+In general an elliptic curve is one with an equation of the form:
+
+y^2 = x^3 + ax + b
+
+An B<EC_GROUP> structure is used to represent the definition of an elliptic curve. Points on a curve are stored using an
+B<EC_POINT> structure. An B<EC_KEY> is used to hold a private/public key pair, where a private key is simply a BIGNUM and a
+public key is a point on a curve (represented by an B<EC_POINT>).
+
+The library contains a number of alternative implementations of the different functions. Each implementation is optimised
+for different scenarios. No matter which implementation is being used, the interface remains the same. The library
+handles calling the correct implementation when an interface function is invoked. An implementation is represented by
+an B<EC_METHOD> structure.
+
+The creation and destruction of B<EC_GROUP> objects is described in L<EC_GROUP_new(3)|EC_GROUP_new(3)>. Functions for
+manipulating B<EC_GROUP> objects are described in L<EC_GROUP_copy(3)|EC_GROUP_copy(3)>.
+
+Functions for creating, destroying and manipulating B<EC_POINT> objects are explained in L<EC_POINT_new(3)|EC_POINT_new(3)>,
+whilst functions for performing mathematical operations and tests on B<EC_POINTs> are coverd in L<EC_POINT_add(3)|EC_POINT_add(3)>.
+
+For working with private and public keys refer to L<EC_KEY_new(3)|EC_KEY_new(3)>. Implementations are covered in
+L<EC_GFp_simple_method(3)|EC_GFp_simple_method(3)>.
+
+For information on encoding and decoding curve parameters to and from ASN1 see L<d2i_ECPKParameters(3)|d2i_ECPKParameters(3)>.

=head1 SYNOPSIS
The EVP library provides a high-level interface to cryptographic
functions.
-B<EVP_Seal>I<...> and B<EVP_Open>I<...> provide public key encryption
-and decryption to implement digital "envelopes".
+L<B<EVP_Seal>I<...>|EVP_SealInit(3)> and L<B<EVP_Open>I<...>|EVP_OpenInit(3)>
+provide public key encryption and decryption to implement digital "envelopes".
-The B<EVP_Sign>I<...> and B<EVP_Verify>I<...> functions implement
-digital signatures.
+The L<B<EVP_DigestSign>I<...>|EVP_DigestSignInit(3)> and
+L<B<EVP_DigestVerify>I<...>|EVP_DigestVerifyInit(3)> functions implement
+digital signatures and Message Authentication Codes (MACs). Also see the older
+L<B<EVP_Sign>I<...>|EVP_SignInit(3)> and L<B<EVP_Verify>I<...>|EVP_VerifyInit(3)>
+functions.
-Symmetric encryption is available with the B<EVP_Encrypt>I<...>
-functions. The B<EVP_Digest>I<...> functions provide message digests.
+Symmetric encryption is available with the L<B<EVP_Encrypt>I<...>|EVP_EncryptInit(3)>
+functions. The L<B<EVP_Digest>I<...>|EVP_DigestInit(3)> functions provide message digests.
The B<EVP_PKEY>I<...> functions provide a high level interface to
-asymmetric algorithms.
-
-Algorithms are loaded with OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(3).
+asymmetric algorithms. To create a new EVP_PKEY see
+L<EVP_PKEY_new(3)|EVP_PKEY_new(3)>. EVP_PKEYs can be associated
+with a private key of a particular algorithm by using the functions
+described on the L<EVP_PKEY_set1_RSA(3)|EVP_PKEY_set1_RSA(3)> page, or
+new keys can be generated using L<EVP_PKEY_keygen(3)|EVP_PKEY_keygen(3)>.
+EVP_PKEYs can be compared using L<EVP_PKEY_cmp(3)|EVP_PKEY_cmp(3)>, or printed using
+L<EVP_PKEY_print_private(3)|EVP_PKEY_print_private(3)>.
+
+The EVP_PKEY functions support the full range of asymmetric algorithm operations:
+=over
+
+=item For key agreement see L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)|EVP_PKEY_derive(3)>
+
+=item For signing and verifying see L<EVP_PKEY_sign(3)|EVP_PKEY_sign(3)>,
+L<EVP_PKEY_verify(3)|EVP_PKEY_verify(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_verify_recover(3)|EVP_PKEY_verify_recover(3)>.
+However, note that
+these functions do not perform a digest of the data to be signed. Therefore
+normally you would use the L<B<EVP_DigestSign>I<...>|EVP_DigestSignInit(3)>
+functions for this purpose.
+
+=item For encryption and decryption see L<EVP_PKEY_encrypt(3)|EVP_PKEY_encrypt(3)>
+and L<EVP_PKEY_decrypt(3)|EVP_PKEY_decrypt(3)> respectively. However, note that
+these functions perform encryption and decryption only. As public key
+encryption is an expensive operation, normally you would wrap
+an encrypted message in a "digital envelope" using the L<B<EVP_Seal>I<...>|EVP_SealInit(3)> and
+L<B<EVP_Open>I<...>|EVP_OpenInit(3)> functions.
+
+=back
+
+The L<EVP_BytesToKey(3)|EVP_BytesToKey(3)> function provides some limited support for password
+based encryption. Careful selection of the parameters will provide a PKCS#5 PBKDF1 compatible
+implementation. However, new applications should not typically use this (preferring, for example,
+PBKDF2 from PCKS#5).
+
+Algorithms are loaded with L<OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(3)|OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(3)>.
All the symmetric algorithms (ciphers), digests and asymmetric algorithms
-(public key algorithms) can be replaced by ENGINE modules providing alternative
+(public key algorithms) can be replaced by L<ENGINE|engine(3)> modules providing alternative
implementations. If ENGINE implementations of ciphers or digests are registered
as defaults, then the various EVP functions will automatically use those
implementations automatically in preference to built in software
