+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_is_a()\fR checks if the key type of \fIpkey\fR is \fIname\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_can_sign()\fR checks if the functionality for the key type of
+\&\fIpkey\fR supports signing. No other check is done, such as whether
+\&\fIpkey\fR contains a private key.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_type_names_do_all()\fR traverses all names for \fIpkey\fR's key type, and
+calls \fIfn\fR with each name and \fIdata\fR. For example, an \s-1RSA\s0 \fB\s-1EVP_PKEY\s0\fR may
+be named both \f(CW\*(C`RSA\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`rsaEncryption\*(C'\fR.
+The order of the names depends on the provider implementation that holds
+the key.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_get0_type_name()\fR returns the first key type name that is found
+for the given \fIpkey\fR. Note that the \fIpkey\fR may have multiple synonyms
+associated with it. In this case it depends on the provider implementation
+that holds the key which one will be returned.
+Ownership of the returned string is retained by the \fIpkey\fR object and should
+not be freed by the caller.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_get0_description()\fR returns a description of the type of \fB\s-1EVP_PKEY\s0\fR,
+meant for display and human consumption. The description is at the
+discretion of the key type implementation.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_get0_provider()\fR returns the provider of the \fB\s-1EVP_PKEY\s0\fR's
+\&\s-1\fBEVP_KEYMGMT\s0\fR\|(3).
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_is_a()\fR returns 1 if \fIpkey\fR has the key type \fIname\fR,
+otherwise 0.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_can_sign()\fR returns 1 if the \fIpkey\fR key type functionality
+supports signing, otherwise 0.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_get0_type_name()\fR returns the name that is found or \s-1NULL\s0 on error.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_get0_description()\fR returns the description if found or \s-1NULL\s0 if not.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_get0_provider()\fR returns the provider if found or \s-1NULL\s0 if not.
+.PP
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_type_names_do_all()\fR returns 1 if the callback was called for all
+names. A return value of 0 means that the callback was not called for any
+names.

+The loaded providers and what key types they support will ultimately
+determine what \fIname\fR is possible to use with \fBEVP_PKEY_is_a()\fR. We do know
+that the default provider supports \s-1RSA, DH, DSA\s0 and \s-1EC\s0 keys, so we can use
+this as an crude example:
