.Sh DESCRIPTION
These are algorithm-independent interfaces to decode and encode
private and public keys.
For details about the semantics, examples, caveats, and bugs, see
.Xr ASN1_item_d2i 3 .
.Pp
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey
decodes a private key using algorithm
.Fa type .
It attempts to use any algorithm specific format or the PKCS#8 unencrypted
.Vt PrivateKeyInfo
format defined in RFC 5208 section 5.
The
.Fa type
parameter should be a public key algorithm constant such as
.Dv EVP_PKEY_RSA .
An error occurs if the decoded key does not match
.Fa type .
.Pp
.Fn d2i_AutoPrivateKey
is similar to
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey
except that it attempts to automatically detect the algorithm.
.Pp
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey_bio
and
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey_fp
are similar to
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey
except that they read from a
.Vt BIO
or
.Vt FILE
pointer.
.Pp
.Fn i2d_PrivateKey
encodes
.Fa val_in .
It uses an algorithm specific format or, if none is defined for
that key type, the PKCS#8 unencrypted
.Vt PrivateKeyInfo
format.
.Pp
.Fn i2d_PKCS8PrivateKeyInfo_bio
and
.Fn i2d_PKCS8PrivateKeyInfo_fp
encode
.Fa val_in
in PKCS#8 unencrypted
.Vt PrivateKeyInfo
format.
They are similar to
.Fn i2d_PrivateKey
except that they don't use any algorithm-specific formats
and that they write to a
.Vt BIO
or
.Vt FILE
pointer rather than to a buffer.
.Pp
All these functions use DER format and unencrypted keys.
Applications wishing to encrypt or decrypt private keys should use other
functions such as
.Xr d2i_PKCS8PrivateKey_bio 3
instead.
.Pp
If
.Pf * Fa val_out
is not
.Dv NULL
when calling
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey
or
.Fn d2i_AutoPrivateKey
(i.e. an existing structure is being reused) and the key format is
PKCS#8, then
.Pf * Fa val_out
will be freed and replaced on a successful call.
.Pp
.Fn d2i_PublicKey
calls
.Xr d2i_DSAPublicKey 3 ,
.Xr o2i_ECPublicKey 3 ,
or
.Xr d2i_RSAPublicKey 3
depending on
.Fa type
and stores the result in the returned
.Vt EVP_PKEY
object.
.Pp
.Fn i2d_PublicKey
calls
.Xr i2d_DSAPublicKey 3 ,
.Xr i2o_ECPublicKey 3 ,
or
.Xr i2d_RSAPublicKey 3
depending on the algorithm used by
.Fa val_in .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey ,
.Fn d2i_AutoPrivateKey ,
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey_bio ,
.Fn d2i_PrivateKey_fp ,
and
.Fn d2i_PublicKey
return a valid
.Vt EVP_PKEY
structure or
.Dv NULL
if an error occurs.
.Pp
.Fn i2d_PrivateKey
and
.Fn i2d_PublicKey
return the number of bytes successfully encoded or a negative value if
an error occurs.
.Pp
.Fn i2d_PKCS8PrivateKeyInfo_bio
and
.Fn i2d_PKCS8PrivateKeyInfo_fp
return 1 for success or 0 if an error occurs.
.Pp
For all functions, the error code can be obtained by calling
.Xr ERR_get_error 3 .
