NAMEEVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params, EVP_PKEY_CTX_settable_params, EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_params, EVP_PKEY_CTX_gettable_params ​− provider parameter passing operations

---

SYNOPSIS​ #include <openssl/evp.h> ​ ​ int EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, const OSSL_PARAM *params); ​ const OSSL_PARAM *EVP_PKEY_CTX_settable_params(const EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); ​ int EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_params(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, OSSL_PARAM *params); ​ const OSSL_PARAM *EVP_PKEY_CTX_gettable_params(const EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);

---

DESCRIPTIONThe EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_params() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params() functions allow transfer of arbitrary key parameters to and from providers. Not all parameters may be supported by all providers. See OSSL_PROVIDER (3) for more information on providers. See OSSL_PARAM (3) for more information on parameters. These functions must only be called after the EVP_PKEY_CTX has been initialised for use in an operation. These methods replace the EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl() mechanism. (EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl now calls these methods internally to interact with providers). ​EVP_PKEY_CTX_gettable_params() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_settable_params() get a constant OSSL_PARAM array that describes the gettable and settable parameters for the current algorithm implementation, i.e. parameters that can be used with EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_params() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params() respectively. See OSSL_PARAM (3) for the use of OSSL_PARAM as parameter descriptor. These functions must only be called after the EVP_PKEY_CTX has been initialised for use in an operation.

ParametersExamples of EVP_PKEY parameters include the following: ​‟Common parameters” in provider−keymgmt (7) ​‟Key Exchange parameters” in provider−keyexch (7) ​‟Signature parameters” in provider−signature (7) ​‟Common RSA parameters” in EVP_PKEY−RSA (7) ​‟RSA key generation parameters” in EVP_PKEY−RSA (7) ​‟FFC parameters” in EVP_PKEY−FFC (7) ​‟FFC key generation parameters” in EVP_PKEY−FFC (7) ​‟DSA parameters” in EVP_PKEY−DSA (7) ​‟DSA key generation parameters” in EVP_PKEY−DSA (7) ​‟DH parameters” in EVP_PKEY−DH (7) ​‟DH key generation parameters” in EVP_PKEY−DH (7) ​‟Common EC parameters” in EVP_PKEY−EC (7) ​‟Common X25519, X448, ED25519 and ED448 parameters” in EVP_PKEY−X25519 (7)

---

RETURN VALUES​EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params() returns 1 for success or 0 otherwise. ​EVP_PKEY_CTX_settable_params() returns an OSSL_PARAM array on success or NULL on error. It may also return NULL if there are no settable parameters available. All other functions and macros described on this page return a positive value for success and 0 or a negative value for failure. In particular a return value of −2 indicates the operation is not supported by the public key algorithm.
