+ +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> is a structure which holds a set of methods for a +specific public key cryptographic algorithm. Those methods are usually +used to perform different jobs, such as generating a key, signing or +verifying, encrypting or decrypting, etc. + +There are two places where the B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> objects are stored: one +is a built-in static 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<EVP_PKEY_meth_add0(3)>. + +The B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> objects are usually referenced by B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> +objects. + +=head2 Methods + +The methods are the underlying implementations of a particular public key +algorithm present by the B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> object. + + int (*init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*copy) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *dst, EVP_PKEY_CTX *src); + void (*cleanup) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + +The init() method is called to initialize algorithm-specific data when a new +B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> is created. As opposed to init(), the cleanup() method is called +when an B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> is freed. The copy() method is called when an B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> +is being duplicated. Refer to L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(3)>, +L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_free(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_dup(3)>. + + int (*paramgen_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*paramgen) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, EVP_PKEY *pkey); + +The paramgen_init() and paramgen() methods deal with key parameter generation. +They are called by L<EVP_PKEY_paramgen_init(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_paramgen(3)> to +handle the parameter generation process. + + int (*keygen_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*keygen) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, EVP_PKEY *pkey); + +The keygen_init() and keygen() methods are used to generate the actual key for +the specified algorithm. They are called by L<EVP_PKEY_keygen_init(3)> and +L<EVP_PKEY_keygen(3)>. + + int (*sign_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*sign) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, unsigned char *sig, size_t *siglen, + const unsigned char *tbs, size_t tbslen); + +The sign_init() and sign() methods are used to generate the signature of a +piece of data using a private key. They are called by L<EVP_PKEY_sign_init(3)> +and L<EVP_PKEY_sign(3)>. + + int (*verify_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*verify) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, + const unsigned char *sig, size_t siglen, + const unsigned char *tbs, size_t tbslen); + +The verify_init() and verify() methods are used to verify whether a signature is +valid. They are called by L<EVP_PKEY_verify_init(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_verify(3)>. + + int (*verify_recover_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*verify_recover) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, + unsigned char *rout, size_t *routlen, + const unsigned char *sig, size_t siglen); + +The verify_recover_init() and verify_recover() methods are used to verify a +signature and then recover the digest from the signature (for instance, a +signature that was generated by RSA signing algorithm). They are called by +L<EVP_PKEY_verify_recover_init(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_verify_recover(3)>. + + int (*signctx_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, EVP_MD_CTX *mctx); + int (*signctx) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, unsigned char *sig, size_t *siglen, + EVP_MD_CTX *mctx); + +The signctx_init() and signctx() methods are used to sign a digest present by +a B<EVP_MD_CTX> object. They are called by the EVP_DigestSign functions. See +L<EVP_DigestSignInit(3)> for detail. + + int (*verifyctx_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, EVP_MD_CTX *mctx); + int (*verifyctx) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, const unsigned char *sig, int siglen, + EVP_MD_CTX *mctx); + +The verifyctx_init() and verifyctx() methods are used to verify a signature +against the data in a B<EVP_MD_CTX> object. They are called by the various +EVP_DigestVerify functions. See L<EVP_DigestVerifyInit(3)> for detail. + + int (*encrypt_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*encrypt) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, unsigned char *out, size_t *outlen, + const unsigned char *in, size_t inlen); + +The encrypt_init() and encrypt() methods are used to encrypt a piece of data. +They are called by L<EVP_PKEY_encrypt_init(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_encrypt(3)>. + + int (*decrypt_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*decrypt) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, unsigned char *out, size_t *outlen, + const unsigned char *in, size_t inlen); + +The decrypt_init() and decrypt() methods are used to decrypt a piece of data. +They are called by L<EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_decrypt(3)>. + + int (*derive_init) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx); + int (*derive) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, unsigned char *key, size_t *keylen); + +The derive_init() and derive() methods are used to derive the shared secret +from a public key algorithm (for instance, the DH algorithm). They are called by +L<EVP_PKEY_derive_init(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)>. + + int (*ctrl) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, int type, int p1, void *p2); + int (*ctrl_str) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, const char *type, const char *value); + +The ctrl() and ctrl_str() methods are used to adjust algorithm-specific +settings. See L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl(3)> and related functions for detail. + + int (*digestsign) (EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, unsigned char *sig, size_t *siglen, + const unsigned char *tbs, size_t tbslen); + int (*digestverify) (EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, const unsigned char *sig, + size_t siglen, const unsigned char *tbs, + size_t tbslen); + +The digestsign() and digestverify() methods are used to generate or verify +a signature in a one-shot mode. They could be called by L<EVP_DigetSign(3)> +and L<EVP_DigestVerify(3)>. + + int (*check) (EVP_PKEY *pkey); + int (*public_check) (EVP_PKEY *pkey); + int (*param_check) (EVP_PKEY *pkey); + +The check(), public_check() and param_check() methods are used to validate a +key-pair, the public component and parameters respectively for a given B<pkey>. +They could be called by L<EVP_PKEY_check(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_public_check(3)> and +L<EVP_PKEY_param_check(3)> respectively. + + int (*digest_custom) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, EVP_MD_CTX *mctx); + +The digest_custom() method is used to generate customized digest content before +the real message is passed to functions like L<EVP_DigestSignUpdate(3)> or +L<EVP_DigestVerifyInit(3)>. This is usually required by some public key +signature algorithms like SM2 which requires a hashed prefix to the message to +be signed. The digest_custom() function will be called by L<EVP_DigestSignInit(3)> +and L<EVP_DigestVerifyInit(3)>. + +=head2 Functions + +EVP_PKEY_meth_new() creates and returns a new B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> object, +and associates the given B<id> and B<flags>. The following flags are +supported: + + EVP_PKEY_FLAG_AUTOARGLEN + EVP_PKEY_FLAG_SIGCTX_CUSTOM + +If an B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> is set with the B<EVP_PKEY_FLAG_AUTOARGLEN> flag, the +maximum size of the output buffer will be automatically calculated or checked +in corresponding EVP methods by the EVP framework. Thus the implementations of +these methods don't need to care about handling the case of returning output +buffer size by themselves. For details on the output buffer size, refer to +L<EVP_PKEY_sign(3)>. + +The B<EVP_PKEY_FLAG_SIGCTX_CUSTOM> is used to indicate the signctx() method +of an B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> is always called by the EVP framework while doing a +digest signing operation by calling L<EVP_DigestSignFinal(3)>. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_free() frees an existing B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> pointed by +B<pmeth>. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_copy() copies an B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> object from B<src> +to B<dst>. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_find() finds an B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> object with the B<id>. +This function first searches through the user-defined method objects and +then the built-in objects. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_add0() adds B<pmeth> to the user defined stack of methods. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_remove() removes an B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> object added by +EVP_PKEY_meth_add0(). + +The EVP_PKEY_meth_set functions set the corresponding fields of +B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> structure with the arguments passed. + +The EVP_PKEY_meth_get functions get the corresponding fields of +B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> structure to the arguments provided. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +EVP_PKEY_meth_new() returns a pointer to a new B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> +object or returns NULL on error. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_free() and EVP_PKEY_meth_copy() do not return values. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_find() returns a pointer to the found B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> +object or returns NULL if not found. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_add0() returns 1 if method is added successfully or 0 +if an error occurred. + +EVP_PKEY_meth_remove() returns 1 if method is removed successfully or +0 if an error occurred. + +All EVP_PKEY_meth_set and EVP_PKEY_meth_get functions have no return +values. For the 'get' functions, function pointers are returned by +arguments. + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2017-2018 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
