For example 72an RSA key will return B<EVP_PKEY_RSA>. 73 74EVP_PKEY_id() returns the actual OID associated with B<pkey>. Historically keys 75using the same algorithm could use different OIDs. For example an RSA key could 76use the OIDs corresponding to the NIDs B<NID_rsaEncryption> (equivalent to 77B<EVP_PKEY_RSA>) or B<NID_rsa> (equivalent to B<EVP_PKEY_RSA2>). The use of 78alternative non-standard OIDs is now rare so B<EVP_PKEY_RSA2> et al are not 79often seen in practice. 80 81EVP_PKEY_type() returns the underlying type of the NID B<type>. For example 82EVP_PKEY_type(EVP_PKEY_RSA2) will return B<EVP_PKEY_RSA>. 83 84EVP_PKEY_set1_engine() sets the ENGINE handling B<pkey> to B<engine>. It 85must be called after the key algorithm and components are set up. 86If B<engine> does not include an B<EVP_PKEY_METHOD> for B<pkey> an 87error occurs. 88 89EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type() allows modifying a EVP_PKEY to use a 90different set of algorithms than the default. This is currently used 91to support SM2 keys, which use an identical encoding to ECDSA. 92 93=head1 NOTES 94 95In accordance with the OpenSSL naming convention the key obtained 96from or assigned to the B<pkey> using the B<1> functions must be 97freed as well as B<pkey>. 98 99EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DH(), 100EVP_PKEY_assign_EC_KEY(), EVP_PKEY_assign_POLY1305() 101and EVP_PKEY_assign_SIPHASH() are implemented as macros. 102 103Most applications wishing to know a key type will simply call 104EVP_PKEY_base_id() and will not care about the actual type: 105which will be identical in almost all cases. 106 107Previous versions of this document suggested using EVP_PKEY_type(pkey->type) 108to determine the type of a key. Since B<EVP_PKEY> is now opaque this 109is no longer possible: the equivalent is EVP_PKEY_base_id(pkey). 110 111EVP_PKEY_set1_engine() is typically used by an ENGINE returning an HSM 112key as part of its routine to load a private key. 113 114=head1 EXAMPLES 115 116After loading an ECC key, it is possible to convert it to using SM2 117algorithms with EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type: 118 119 EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type(pkey, EVP_PKEY_SM2); 120 121=head1 RETURN VALUES 122 123EVP_PKEY_set1_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_set1_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_set1_DH() and 124EVP_PKEY_set1_EC_KEY() return 1 for success or 0 for failure. 125 126EVP_PKEY_get1_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_get1_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_get1_DH() and 127EVP_PKEY_get1_EC_KEY() return the referenced key or B<NULL> if 128an error occurred. 129 130EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_assign_DH(), 131EVP_PKEY_assign_EC_KEY(), EVP_PKEY_assign_POLY1305() 132and EVP_PKEY_assign_SIPHASH() return 1 for success and 0 for failure. 133 134EVP_PKEY_base_id(), EVP_PKEY_id() and EVP_PKEY_type() return a key 135type or B<NID_undef> (equivalently B<EVP_PKEY_NONE>) on error. 136 137EVP_PKEY_set1_engine() returns 1 for success and 0 for failure. 138 139EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type() returns 1 for success and 0 for error. 140 141=head1 SEE ALSO 142 143L<EVP_PKEY_new(3)> 144 145=head1 COPYRIGHT 146 147Copyright 2002-2018 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
