=head1 NAME
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DH_generate_key, DH_compute_key, DH_compute_key_padded - perform
 | 
						|
Diffie-Hellman key exchange
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 #include <openssl/dh.h>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
 | 
						|
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
 | 
						|
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int DH_generate_key(DH *dh);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int DH_compute_key(unsigned char *key, const BIGNUM *pub_key, DH *dh);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int DH_compute_key_padded(unsigned char *key, const BIGNUM *pub_key, DH *dh);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
 | 
						|
Applications should instead use L<EVP_PKEY_derive_init(3)>
 | 
						|
and L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DH_generate_key() performs the first step of a Diffie-Hellman key
 | 
						|
exchange by generating private and public DH values. By calling
 | 
						|
DH_compute_key() or DH_compute_key_padded(), these are combined with
 | 
						|
the other party's public value to compute the shared key.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DH_generate_key() expects B<dh> to contain the shared parameters
 | 
						|
B<dh-E<gt>p> and B<dh-E<gt>g>. It generates a random private DH value
 | 
						|
unless B<dh-E<gt>priv_key> is already set, and computes the
 | 
						|
corresponding public value B<dh-E<gt>pub_key>, which can then be
 | 
						|
published.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DH_compute_key() computes the shared secret from the private DH value
 | 
						|
in B<dh> and the other party's public value in B<pub_key> and stores
 | 
						|
it in B<key>. B<key> must point to B<DH_size(dh)> bytes of memory.
 | 
						|
The padding style is RFC 5246 (8.1.2) that strips leading zero bytes.
 | 
						|
It is not constant time due to the leading zero bytes being stripped.
 | 
						|
The return value should be considered public.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DH_compute_key_padded() is similar but stores a fixed number of bytes.
 | 
						|
The padding style is NIST SP 800-56A (C.1) that retains leading zero bytes.
 | 
						|
It is constant time due to the leading zero bytes being retained.
 | 
						|
The return value should be considered public.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DH_generate_key() returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DH_compute_key() returns the size of the shared secret on success, -1
 | 
						|
on error.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DH_compute_key_padded() returns B<DH_size(dh)> on success, -1 on error.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The error codes can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
 | 
						|

=head1 HISTORY
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
