NAMEEVP_PKEY_CTX_new, EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id, EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name, EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_pkey, EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup, EVP_PKEY_CTX_free, EVP_PKEY_CTX_is_a − public key algorithm context functions

SYNOPSIS #include <openssl/evp.h> EVP_PKEY_CTX *EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(EVP_PKEY *pkey, ENGINE *e); EVP_PKEY_CTX *EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(int id, ENGINE *e); EVP_PKEY_CTX *EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name(OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, const char *name, const char *propquery); EVP_PKEY_CTX *EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_pkey(OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, EVP_PKEY *pkey, const char *propquery); EVP_PKEY_CTX *EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup(const EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); void EVP_PKEY_CTX_free(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); int EVP_PKEY_CTX_is_a(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, const char *keytype);

DESCRIPTIONThe EVP_PKEY_CTX_new() function allocates public key algorithm context using the pkey key type and ENGINE e. The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id() function allocates public key algorithm context using the key type specified by id and ENGINE e. The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name() function allocates a public key algorithm context using the library context libctx (see OSSL_LIB_CTX (3)), the key type specified by name and the property query propquery. None of the arguments are duplicated, so they must remain unchanged for the lifetime of the returned EVP_PKEY_CTX or of any of its duplicates. Read further about the possible names in ‟NOTES” below. The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_pkey() function allocates a public key algorithm context using the library context libctx (see OSSL_LIB_CTX (3)) and the algorithm specified by pkey and the property query propquery. None of the arguments are duplicated, so they must remain unchanged for the lifetime of the returned EVP_PKEY_CTX or any of its duplicates. EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name() are normally used when no EVP_PKEY structure is associated with the operations, for example during parameter generation or key generation for some algorithms. EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup() duplicates the context ctx. It is not supported for a keygen operation. EVP_PKEY_CTX_free() frees up the context ctx. If ctx is NULL, nothing is done. EVP_PKEY_is_a() checks if the key type associated with ctx is keytype.

NOTES

On EVP_PKEY_CTXThe EVP_PKEY_CTX structure is an opaque public key algorithm context used by the OpenSSL high-level public key API. Contexts MUST NOT be shared between threads: that is it is not permissible to use the same context simultaneously in two threads.

On Key TypesWe mention ‟key type” in this manual, which is the same as ‟algorithm” in most cases, allowing either term to be used interchangeably. There are algorithms where the key type and the algorithm of the operations that use the keys are not the same, such as EC keys being used for ECDSA and ECDH operations. Key types are given in two different manners: Legacy NID or EVP_PKEY type This is the id used with EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(). These are EVP_PKEY_RSA, EVP_PKEY_RSA_PSS, EVP_PKEY_DSA, EVP_PKEY_DH, EVP_PKEY_EC, EVP_PKEY_SM2, EVP_PKEY_X25519, EVP_PKEY_X448, and are used by legacy methods. Name strings This is the name used with EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name(). These are names like ‟RSA”, ‟DSA”, and what's available depends on what providers are currently accessible. The OpenSSL providers offer a set of key types available this way, please see OSSL_PROVIDER−FIPS (7) and OSSL_PROVIDER−default (7) and related documentation for more information.

RETURN VALUESEVP_PKEY_CTX_new(), EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup() return either the newly allocated EVP_PKEY_CTX structure or NULL if an error occurred. EVP_PKEY_CTX_free() does not return a value. EVP_PKEY_CTX_is_a() returns 1 for true and 0 for false.

HISTORYThe EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(), EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(), EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_free() functions were added in OpenSSL 1.0.0. The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_pkey() functions were added in OpenSSL 3.0.
