The following function has been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
|
|
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
|
|
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY *EVP_PKEY_new_CMAC_key(ENGINE *e, const unsigned char *priv,
|
|
size_t len, const EVP_CIPHER *cipher);
|

|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY> is a generic structure to hold diverse types of asymmetric keys
|
|
(also known as "key pairs"), and can be used for diverse operations, like
|
|
signing, verifying signatures, key derivation, etc. The asymmetric keys
|
|
themselves are often refered to as the "internal key", and are handled by
|
|
backends, such as providers (through L<EVP_KEYMGMT(3)>) or B<ENGINE>s.
|
|
|
|
Conceptually, an B<EVP_PKEY> internal key may hold a private key, a public
|
|
key, or both (a keypair), and along with those, key parameters if the key type
|
|
requires them. The presence of these components determine what operations can
|
|
be made; for example, signing normally requires the presence of a private key,
|
|
and verifying normally requires the presence of a public key.
|
|
|
|
=for comment ED signature require both the private and public key...
|
|
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY> has also been used for MAC algorithm that were conceived as
|
|
producing signatures, although not being public key algorithms; "POLY1305",
|
|
"SIPHASH", "HMAC", "CMAC". This usage is considered legacy and is discouraged
|
|
in favor of the L<EVP_MAC(3)> API.
|
|
|
|
The EVP_PKEY_new() function allocates an empty B<EVP_PKEY> structure which is
|
|
used by OpenSSL to store public and private keys. The reference count is set to
|
|
B<1>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_up_ref() increments the reference count of I<key>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_dup() duplicates the I<key>. The I<key> must not be ENGINE based or
|
|
a raw key, otherwise the duplication will fail.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_free() decrements the reference count of I<key> and, if the reference
|
|
count is zero, frees it up. If I<key> is NULL, nothing is done.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key_ex() allocates a new B<EVP_PKEY>. Unless an
|
|
engine should be used for the key type, a provider for the key is found using
|
|
the library context I<libctx> and the property query string I<propq>. The
|
|
I<keytype> argument indicates what kind of key this is. The value should be a
|
|
string for a public key algorithm that supports raw private keys, i.e one of
|
|
"X25519", "ED25519", "X448" or "ED448". I<key> points to the raw private key
|
|
data for this B<EVP_PKEY> which should be of length I<keylen>. The length
|
|
should be appropriate for the type of the key. The public key data will be
|
|
automatically derived from the given private key data (if appropriate for the
|
|
algorithm type).
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key() does the same as
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key_ex() except that the default library context and
|
|
default property query are used instead. If I<e> is non-NULL then the new
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY> structure is associated with the engine I<e>. The I<type> argument
|
|
indicates what kind of key this is. The value should be a NID for a public key
|
|
algorithm that supports raw private keys, i.e. one of B<EVP_PKEY_X25519>,
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY_ED25519>, B<EVP_PKEY_X448> or B<EVP_PKEY_ED448>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key_ex() and EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key() may also
|
|
be used with most MACs implemented as public key algorithms, so key types such
|
|
as "HMAC", "POLY1305", "SIPHASH", or their NID form B<EVP_PKEY_POLY1305>,
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY_SIPHASH>, B<EVP_PKEY_HMAC> are also accepted. This usage is,
|
|
as mentioned above, discouraged in favor of the L<EVP_MAC(3)> API.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_public_key_ex() works in the same way as
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key_ex() except that I<key> points to the raw
|
|
public key data. The B<EVP_PKEY> structure will be initialised without any
|
|
private key information. Algorithm types that support raw public keys are
|
|
"X25519", "ED25519", "X448" or "ED448".
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_public_key() works in the same way as
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key() except that I<key> points to the raw public key
|
|
data. The B<EVP_PKEY> structure will be initialised without any private key
|
|
information. Algorithm types that support raw public keys are
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY_X25519>, B<EVP_PKEY_ED25519>, B<EVP_PKEY_X448> or B<EVP_PKEY_ED448>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_mac_key() works in the same way as EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key().
|
|
New applications should use EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key() instead.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get_raw_private_key() fills the buffer provided by I<priv> with raw
|
|
private key data. The size of the I<priv> buffer should be in I<*len> on entry
|
|
to the function, and on exit I<*len> is updated with the number of bytes
|
|
actually written. If the buffer I<priv> is NULL then I<*len> is populated with
|
|
the number of bytes required to hold the key. The calling application is
|
|
responsible for ensuring that the buffer is large enough to receive the private
|
|
key data. This function only works for algorithms that support raw private keys.
|
|
Currently this is: B<EVP_PKEY_HMAC>, B<EVP_PKEY_POLY1305>, B<EVP_PKEY_SIPHASH>,
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY_X25519>, B<EVP_PKEY_ED25519>, B<EVP_PKEY_X448> or B<EVP_PKEY_ED448>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get_raw_public_key() fills the buffer provided by I<pub> with raw
|
|
public key data. The size of the I<pub> buffer should be in I<*len> on entry
|
|
to the function, and on exit I<*len> is updated with the number of bytes
|
|
actually written. If the buffer I<pub> is NULL then I<*len> is populated with
|
|
the number of bytes required to hold the key. The calling application is
|
|
responsible for ensuring that the buffer is large enough to receive the public
|
|
key data. This function only works for algorithms that support raw public keys.
|
|
Currently this is: B<EVP_PKEY_X25519>, B<EVP_PKEY_ED25519>, B<EVP_PKEY_X448> or
|
|
B<EVP_PKEY_ED448>.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_CMAC_key() works in the same way as EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key()
|
|
except it is only for the B<EVP_PKEY_CMAC> algorithm type. In addition to the
|
|
raw private key data, it also takes a cipher algorithm to be used during
|
|
creation of a CMAC in the B<cipher> argument. The cipher should be a standard
|
|
encryption-only cipher. For example AEAD and XTS ciphers should not be used.
|
|
|
|
Applications should use the L<EVP_MAC(3)> API instead
|
|
and set the B<OSSL_MAC_PARAM_CIPHER> parameter on the B<EVP_MAC_CTX> object
|
|
with the name of the cipher being used.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
The B<EVP_PKEY> structure is used by various OpenSSL functions which require a
|
|
general private key without reference to any particular algorithm.
|
|
|
|
The structure returned by EVP_PKEY_new() is empty. To add a private or public
|
|
key to this empty structure use the appropriate functions described in
|
|
L<EVP_PKEY_set1_RSA(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_set1_DSA(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_set1_DH(3)> or
|
|
L<EVP_PKEY_set1_EC_KEY(3)>.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new(), EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key(), EVP_PKEY_new_raw_public_key(),
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_CMAC_key() and EVP_PKEY_new_mac_key() return either the newly
|
|
allocated B<EVP_PKEY> structure or NULL if an error occurred.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_dup() returns the key duplicate or NULL if an error occurred.
|
|
|
|
EVP_PKEY_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_get_raw_private_key() and
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get_raw_public_key() return 1 for success and 0 for failure.

=head1 HISTORY
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new() and EVP_PKEY_free() functions exist in all versions of OpenSSL.
|
|
|
|
The EVP_PKEY_up_ref() function was added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key(), EVP_PKEY_new_raw_public_key(),
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_CMAC_key(), EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key() and
|
|
EVP_PKEY_get_raw_public_key() functions were added in OpenSSL 1.1.1.
|
|
|
|
The EVP_PKEY_dup(), EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key_ex(), and
|
|
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_public_key_ex()
|
|
functions were added in OpenSSL 3.0.
|
|
|
|
The EVP_PKEY_new_CMAC_key() was deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
|
|
|
|
The documentation of B<EVP_PKEY> was amended in OpenSSL 3.0 to allow there to
|
|
be the private part of the keypair without the public part, where this was
|
|
previously implied to be disallowed.
