=head1 NAME
EVP_PKEY_check, EVP_PKEY_param_check, EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick,
EVP_PKEY_public_check, EVP_PKEY_public_check_quick, EVP_PKEY_private_check,
EVP_PKEY_pairwise_check
- key and parameter validation functions
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/evp.h>
int EVP_PKEY_check(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
int EVP_PKEY_param_check(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
int EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
int EVP_PKEY_public_check(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
int EVP_PKEY_public_check_quick(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
int EVP_PKEY_private_check(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
int EVP_PKEY_pairwise_check(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
EVP_PKEY_param_check() validates the parameters component of the key
given by B<ctx>. This check will always succeed for key types that do not have
parameters.
EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick() validates the parameters component of the key
given by B<ctx> like EVP_PKEY_param_check() does. However some algorithm
implementations may offer a quicker form of validation that omits some checks in
order to perform a lightweight sanity check of the key. If a quicker form is not
provided then this function call does the same thing as EVP_PKEY_param_check().
EVP_PKEY_public_check() validates the public component of the key given by B<ctx>.
EVP_PKEY_public_check_quick() validates the public component of the key
given by B<ctx> like EVP_PKEY_public_check() does. However some algorithm
implementations may offer a quicker form of validation that omits some checks in
order to perform a lightweight sanity check of the key. If a quicker form is not
provided then this function call does the same thing as EVP_PKEY_public_check().
EVP_PKEY_private_check() validates the private component of the key given by B<ctx>.
EVP_PKEY_pairwise_check() validates that the public and private components have
the correct mathematical relationship to each other for the key given by B<ctx>.
EVP_PKEY_check() is an alias for the EVP_PKEY_pairwise_check() function.
=head1 NOTES
Key validation used by the OpenSSL FIPS provider complies with the rules
within SP800-56A and SP800-56B. For backwards compatibility reasons the OpenSSL
default provider may use checks that are not as restrictive for certain key types.
For further information see L<EVP_PKEY-DSA(7)/DSA key validation>,
L<EVP_PKEY-DH(7)/DH key validation>, L<EVP_PKEY-EC(7)/EC key validation> and
L<EVP_PKEY-RSA(7)/RSA key validation>.
Refer to SP800-56A and SP800-56B for rules relating to when these functions
should be called during key establishment.
It is not necessary to call these functions after locally calling an approved key
generation method, but may be required for assurance purposes when receiving
keys from a third party.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
All functions return 1 for success or others for failure.
They return -2 if the operation is not supported for the specific algorithm.

=head1 HISTORY
EVP_PKEY_check(), EVP_PKEY_public_check() and EVP_PKEY_param_check() were added
in OpenSSL 1.1.1.
EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick(), EVP_PKEY_public_check_quick(),
EVP_PKEY_private_check() and EVP_PKEY_pairwise_check() were added in OpenSSL 3.0.
