 | |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION
 | |
| 
 | |
| d2i_PrivateKey_ex() decodes a private key using algorithm I<type>. It attempts
 | |
| to use any key-specific format or PKCS#8 unencrypted PrivateKeyInfo format.
 | |
| The I<type> parameter should be a public key algorithm constant such as
 | |
| B<EVP_PKEY_RSA>. An error occurs if the decoded key does not match I<type>. Some
 | |
| private key decoding implementations may use cryptographic algorithms (for
 | |
| example to automatically derive the public key if it is not explicitly
 | |
| included in the encoding). In this case the supplied library context I<libctx>
 | |
| and property query string I<propq> are used.
 | |
| If successful and the I<a> parameter is not NULL the function assigns the
 | |
| returned B<EVP_PKEY> structure pointer to I<*a>, overwriting any previous value.
 | |
| 
 | |
| d2i_PrivateKey() does the same as d2i_PrivateKey_ex() except that the default
 | |
| library context and property query string are used.
 | |
| d2i_PublicKey() does the same for public keys.
 | |
| d2i_KeyParams() does the same for key parameters.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The d2i_PrivateKey_ex_bio() and d2i_PrivateKey_bio() functions are similar to
 | |
| d2i_PrivateKey_ex() and d2i_PrivateKey() respectively except that they decode
 | |
| the data read from the given BIO. The d2i_PrivateKey_ex_fp() and
 | |
| d2i_PrivateKey_fp() functions are the same except that they read the data from
 | |
| the given FILE.
 | |
| 
 | |
| d2i_AutoPrivateKey_ex() and d2i_AutoPrivateKey() are similar to
 | |
| d2i_PrivateKey_ex() and d2i_PrivateKey() respectively except that they attempt
 | |
| to automatically detect the private key format.
 | |
| 
 | |
| i2d_PrivateKey() encodes I<a>. It uses a key specific format or, if none is
 | |
| defined for that key type, PKCS#8 unencrypted PrivateKeyInfo format.
 | |
| i2d_PublicKey() does the same for public keys.
 | |
| i2d_KeyParams() does the same for key parameters.
 | |
| These functions are similar to the d2i_X509() functions; see L<d2i_X509(3)>.
 | |
| i2d_PrivateKey_bio() and i2d_PrivateKey_fp() do the same thing except that they
 | |
| encode to a B<BIO> or B<FILE> respectively. Again, these work similarly to the
 | |
| functions described in L<d2i_X509(3)>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 NOTES
 | |
| 
 | |
| All the functions that operate on data in memory update the data pointer I<*pp>
 | |
| after a successful operation, just like the other d2i and i2d functions;
 | |
| see L<d2i_X509(3)>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| All these functions use DER format and unencrypted keys. Applications wishing
 | |
| to encrypt or decrypt private keys should use other functions such as
 | |
| d2i_PKCS8PrivateKey() instead.
 | |
| 
 | |
| To decode a key with type B<EVP_PKEY_EC>, d2i_PublicKey() requires I<*a> to be
 | |
| a non-NULL EVP_PKEY structure assigned an EC_KEY structure referencing the proper
 | |
| EC_GROUP.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES
 | |
| 
 | |
| The d2i_PrivateKey_ex(), d2i_PrivateKey(), d2i_AutoPrivateKey_ex(),
 | |
| d2i_AutoPrivateKey(), d2i_PrivateKey_ex_bio(), d2i_PrivateKey_bio(),
 | |
| d2i_PrivateKey_ex_fp(), d2i_PrivateKey_fp(), d2i_PublicKey(), d2i_KeyParams()
 | |
| and d2i_KeyParams_bio() functions return a valid B<EVP_PKEY> structure or NULL
 | |
| if an error occurs. The error code can be obtained by calling
 | |
| L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| i2d_PrivateKey(), i2d_PrivateKey_bio(), i2d_PrivateKey_fp(), i2d_PublicKey(),
 | |
| i2d_KeyParams() i2d_KeyParams_bio() return the number of bytes successfully
 | |
| encoded or a negative value if an error occurs. The error code can be obtained
 | |
| by calling L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
