There are two places where the B objects are stored: one is a built-in array representing the standard methods for different algorithms, and the other one is a stack of user-defined application-specific methods, which can be manipulated by using L. =head2 Methods The methods are the underlying implementations of a particular public key algorithm present by the B object. int (*pub_decode) (EVP_PKEY *pk, X509_PUBKEY *pub); int (*pub_encode) (X509_PUBKEY *pub, const EVP_PKEY *pk); int (*pub_cmp) (const EVP_PKEY *a, const EVP_PKEY *b); int (*pub_print) (BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pkey, int indent, ASN1_PCTX *pctx); The pub_decode() and pub_encode() methods are called to decode / encode B ASN.1 parameters to / from B. They MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. They're called by L and L. The pub_cmp() method is called when two public keys are to be compared. It MUST return 1 when the keys are equal, 0 otherwise. It's called by L. The pub_print() method is called to print a public key in humanly readable text to B, indented B spaces. It MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. It's called by L. int (*priv_decode) (EVP_PKEY *pk, const PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8inf); int (*priv_encode) (PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8, const EVP_PKEY *pk); int (*priv_print) (BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pkey, int indent, ASN1_PCTX *pctx); The priv_decode() and priv_encode() methods are called to decode / encode B form private key to / from B. They MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. They're called by L and L. The priv_print() method is called to print a private key in humanly readable text to B, indented B spaces. It MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. It's called by L. int (*pkey_size) (const EVP_PKEY *pk); int (*pkey_bits) (const EVP_PKEY *pk); int (*pkey_security_bits) (const EVP_PKEY *pk); The pkey_size() method returns the key size in bytes. It's called by L. The pkey_bits() method returns the key size in bits. It's called by L. int (*param_decode) (EVP_PKEY *pkey, const unsigned char **pder, int derlen); int (*param_encode) (const EVP_PKEY *pkey, unsigned char **pder); int (*param_missing) (const EVP_PKEY *pk); int (*param_copy) (EVP_PKEY *to, const EVP_PKEY *from); int (*param_cmp) (const EVP_PKEY *a, const EVP_PKEY *b); int (*param_print) (BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pkey, int indent, ASN1_PCTX *pctx); The param_decode() and param_encode() methods are called to decode / encode DER formatted parameters to / from B. They MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. They're called by L and the B L. The param_missing() method returns 0 if a key parameter is missing, otherwise 1. It's called by L. The param_copy() method copies key parameters from B to B. It MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. It's called by L. The param_cmp() method compares the parameters of keys B and B. It MUST return 1 when the keys are equal, 0 when not equal, or a negative number on error. It's called by L. The param_print() method prints the private key parameters in humanly readable text to B, indented B spaces. It MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. It's called by L. int (*sig_print) (BIO *out, const X509_ALGOR *sigalg, const ASN1_STRING *sig, int indent, ASN1_PCTX *pctx); The sig_print() method prints a signature in humanly readable text to B, indented B spaces. B contains the exact signature algorithm. If the signature in B doesn't correspond to what this method expects, X509_signature_dump() must be used as a last resort. It MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. It's called by L. void (*pkey_free) (EVP_PKEY *pkey); The pkey_free() method helps freeing the internals of B. It's called by L, L, L, and L. int (*pkey_ctrl) (EVP_PKEY *pkey, int op, long arg1, void *arg2); The pkey_ctrl() method adds extra algorithm specific control. It's called by L, L, L, L, L, ... int (*old_priv_decode) (EVP_PKEY *pkey, const unsigned char **pder, int derlen); int (*old_priv_encode) (const EVP_PKEY *pkey, unsigned char **pder); The old_priv_decode() and old_priv_encode() methods decode / encode they private key B from / to a DER formatted array. These are exclusively used to help decoding / encoding older (pre PKCS#8) PEM formatted encrypted private keys. old_priv_decode() MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. old_priv_encode() MUST the return same kind of values as i2d_PrivateKey(). They're called by L and L. int (*item_verify) (EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, const ASN1_ITEM *it, void *asn, X509_ALGOR *a, ASN1_BIT_STRING *sig, EVP_PKEY *pkey); int (*item_sign) (EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, const ASN1_ITEM *it, void *asn, X509_ALGOR *alg1, X509_ALGOR *alg2, ASN1_BIT_STRING *sig); The item_sign() and item_verify() methods make it possible to have algorithm specific signatures and verification of them. item_sign() MUST return one of: =over 4 =item <=0 error =item Z<>1 item_sign() did everything, OpenSSL internals just needs to pass the signature length back. =item Z<>2 item_sign() did nothing, OpenSSL internal standard routines are expected to continue with the default signature production. =item Z<>3 item_sign() set the algorithm identifier B and B, OpenSSL internals should just sign using those algorithms. =back item_verify() MUST return one of: =over 4 =item <=0 error =item Z<>1 item_sign() did everything, OpenSSL internals just needs to pass the signature length back. =item Z<>2 item_sign() did nothing, OpenSSL internal standard routines are expected to continue with the default signature production. =back item_verify() and item_sign() are called by L and L, and by extension, L, L, L, L, ... int (*siginf_set) (X509_SIG_INFO *siginf, const X509_ALGOR *alg, const ASN1_STRING *sig); The siginf_set() method is used to set custom B parameters. It MUST return 0 on error, or 1 on success. It's called as part of L, L and L. int (*pkey_check) (const EVP_PKEY *pk); int (*pkey_public_check) (const EVP_PKEY *pk); int (*pkey_param_check) (const EVP_PKEY *pk); The pkey_check(), pkey_public_check() and pkey_param_check() methods are used to check the validity of B for key-pair, public component and parameters, respectively. They MUST return 0 for an invalid key, or 1 for a valid key. They are called by L, L and L respectively. int (*set_priv_key) (EVP_PKEY *pk, const unsigned char *priv, size_t len); int (*set_pub_key) (EVP_PKEY *pk, const unsigned char *pub, size_t len); The set_priv_key() and set_pub_key() methods are used to set the raw private and public key data for an EVP_PKEY. They MUST return 0 on error, or 1 on success. They are called by L, and L respectively. =head2 Functions EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() creates and returns a new B object, and associates the given B, B, B and B. B is a NID, B is the PEM type string, B is a descriptive string. The following B are supported: ASN1_PKEY_SIGPARAM_NULL If B is set, then the signature algorithm parameters are given the type B by default, otherwise they will be given the type B (i.e. the parameter is omitted). See L for more information. EVP_PKEY_asn1_copy() copies an B object from B to B. This function is not thread safe, it's recommended to only use this when initializing the application. EVP_PKEY_asn1_free() frees an existing B pointed by B. EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0() adds B to the user defined stack of methods unless another B with the same NID is already there. This function is not thread safe, it's recommended to only use this when initializing the application. EVP_PKEY_asn1_add_alias() creates an alias with the NID B for the B with NID B unless another B with the same NID is already added. This function is not thread safe, it's recommended to only use this when initializing the application.

EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0() and EVP_PKEY_asn1_add_alias() return 0 on error, or 1 on success. EVP_PKEY_get0_asn1() returns NULL on error, or a pointer to a constant B object otherwise. =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright 2017-2018 The OpenSSL Project Authors. All Rights Reserved.
