.Sh DESCRIPTION
The EVP envelope routines are a high level interface to envelope
decryption.
They decrypt a public key encrypted symmetric key and then decrypt data
using it.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_OpenInit
initializes a cipher context
.Fa ctx
for decryption with cipher
.Fa type .
It decrypts the encrypted symmetric key of length
.Fa ekl
bytes passed in the
.Fa ek
parameter using the private key
.Fa priv .
The IV is supplied in the
.Fa iv
parameter.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_OpenUpdate
and
.Fn EVP_OpenFinal
have exactly the same properties as the
.Xr EVP_DecryptUpdate 3
and
.Xr EVP_DecryptFinal 3
routines.
.Pp
It is possible to call
.Fn EVP_OpenInit
twice in the same way as
.Xr EVP_DecryptInit 3 .
The first call should have
.Fa priv
set to
.Dv NULL
and (after setting any cipher parameters) it should be
called again with
.Fa type
set to
.Dv NULL .
.Pp
If the cipher passed in the
.Fa type
parameter is a variable length cipher then the key length will be set to
the value of the recovered key length.
If the cipher is a fixed length cipher then the recovered key length
must match the fixed cipher length.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn EVP_OpenInit
returns 0 on error or a non-zero integer (actually the recovered secret
key size) if successful.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_OpenUpdate
returns 1 for success or 0 for failure.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_OpenFinal
returns 0 if the decrypt failed or 1 for success.
