DESCRIPTION
EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl() sends a control operation to the context ctx. The
key type used must match keytype if it is not -1. The parameter optype
is a mask indicating which operations the control can be applied to.
The control command is indicated in cmd and any additional arguments in
p1 and p2.
For cmd = EVP_PKEY_CTRL_SET_MAC_KEY, p1 is the length of the MAC key,
and p2 is the MAC key. This is used by Poly1305, SipHash, HMAC and
CMAC.
Applications will not normally call EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl() directly but
will instead call one of the algorithm specific functions below.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl_uint64() is a wrapper that directly passes a uint64
value as p2 to EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl().
EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl_str() allows an application to send an algorithm
specific control operation to a context ctx in string form. This is
intended to be used for options specified on the command line or in
text files. The commands supported are documented in the openssl
utility command line pages for the option -pkeyopt which is supported
by the pkeyutl, genpkey and req commands.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_md() sends a message digest control operation to the
context ctx. The message digest is specified by its name md.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_signature_md() sets the message digest type used in a
signature. It can be used in the RSA, DSA and ECDSA algorithms.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_signature_md()gets the message digest type used in a
signature. It can be used in the RSA, DSA and ECDSA algorithms.
Key generation typically involves setting up parameters to be used and
generating the private and public key data. Some algorithm
implementations allow private key data to be set explicitly using
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_mac_key(). In this case key generation is simply the
process of setting up the parameters for the key and then setting the
raw key data to the value explicitly. Normally applications would call
EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key(3) or similar functions instead.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_mac_key() can be used with any of the algorithms
supported by the EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key(3) function.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_group_name() sets the group name to name for parameter
and key generation. For example for EC keys this will set the curve
name and for DH keys it will set the name of the finite field group.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_group_name() finds the group name that's currently set
with ctx, and writes it to the location that name points at, as long as
its size namelen is large enough to store that name, including a
terminating NUL byte.
RSA parameters
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_padding() sets the RSA padding mode for ctx. The
pad parameter can take the value RSA_PKCS1_PADDING for PKCS#1 padding,
RSA_NO_PADDING for no padding, RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING for OAEP padding
(encrypt and decrypt only), RSA_X931_PADDING for X9.31 padding
(signature operations only), RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING (sign and verify
only) and RSA_PKCS1_WITH_TLS_PADDING for TLS RSA ClientKeyExchange
message padding (decryption only).
Two RSA padding modes behave differently if
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_signature_md() is used. If this function is called for
PKCS#1 padding the plaintext buffer is an actual digest value and is
encapsulated in a DigestInfo structure according to PKCS#1 when signing
and this structure is expected (and stripped off) when verifying. If
this control is not used with RSA and PKCS#1 padding then the supplied
data is used directly and not encapsulated. In the case of X9.31
padding for RSA the algorithm identifier byte is added or checked and
removed if this control is called. If it is not called then the first
byte of the plaintext buffer is expected to be the algorithm identifier
byte.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_padding() gets the RSA padding mode for ctx.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_pss_saltlen() sets the RSA PSS salt length to
saltlen. As its name implies it is only supported for PSS padding. If
this function is not called then the maximum salt length is used when
signing and auto detection when verifying. Three special values are
supported:
RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_DIGEST
sets the salt length to the digest length.
RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_MAX
sets the salt length to the maximum permissible value.
RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_AUTO
causes the salt length to be automatically determined based on the
PSS block structure when verifying. When signing, it has the same
meaning as RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_MAX.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_pss_saltlen() gets the RSA PSS salt length for
ctx. The padding mode must already have been set to
RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_keygen_bits() sets the RSA key length for RSA key
generation to bits. If not specified 2048 bits is used.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_rsa_keygen_pubexp() sets the public exponent value
for RSA key generation to the value stored in pubexp. Currently it
should be an odd integer. In accordance with the OpenSSL naming
convention, the pubexp pointer must be freed independently of the
EVP_PKEY_CTX (ie, it is internally copied). If not specified 65537 is
used.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_keygen_pubexp() does the same as
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_rsa_keygen_pubexp() except that there is no internal
copy and therefore pubexp should not be modified or freed after the
call.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_keygen_primes() sets the number of primes for RSA
key generation to primes. If not specified 2 is used.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_mgf1_md_name() sets the MGF1 digest for RSA
padding schemes to the digest named mdname. If the RSA algorithm
implementation for the selected provider supports it then the digest
will be fetched using the properties mdprops. If not explicitly set the
signing digest is used. The padding mode must have been set to
RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING or RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_mgf1_md() does the same as
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_mgf1_md_name() except that the name of the digest
is inferred from the supplied md and it is not possible to specify any
properties.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_mgf1_md_name() gets the name of the MGF1 digest
algorithm for ctx. If not explicitly set the signing digest is used.
The padding mode must have been set to RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING or
RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_mgf1_md() does the same as
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_mgf1_md_name() except that it returns a pointer to
an EVP_MD object instead. Note that only known, built-in EVP_MD objects
will be returned. The EVP_MD object may be NULL if the digest is not
one of these (such as a digest only implemented in a third party
provider).
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_oaep_md_name() sets the message digest type used
in RSA OAEP to the digest named mdname. If the RSA algorithm
implementation for the selected provider supports it then the digest
will be fetched using the properties mdprops. The padding mode must
have been set to RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_oaep_md() does the same as
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_oaep_md_name() except that the name of the digest
is inferred from the supplied md and it is not possible to specify any
properties.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_oaep_md_name() gets the message digest algorithm
name used in RSA OAEP and stores it in the buffer name which is of size
namelen. The padding mode must have been set to RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING.
The buffer should be sufficiently large for any expected digest
algorithm names or the function will fail.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_oaep_md() does the same as
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_oaep_md_name() except that it returns a pointer to
an EVP_MD object instead. Note that only known, built-in EVP_MD objects
will be returned. The EVP_MD object may be NULL if the digest is not
one of these (such as a digest only implemented in a third party
provider).
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set0_rsa_oaep_label() sets the RSA OAEP label to binary
data label and its length in bytes to len. If label is NULL or len is
0, the label is cleared. The library takes ownership of the label so
the caller should not free the original memory pointed to by label.
The padding mode must have been set to RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get0_rsa_oaep_label() gets the RSA OAEP label to label.
The return value is the label length. The padding mode must have been
set to RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING. The resulting pointer is owned by the
library and should not be freed by the caller.
RSA_PKCS1_WITH_TLS_PADDING is used when decrypting an RSA encrypted TLS
pre-master secret in a TLS ClientKeyExchange message. It is the same as
RSA_PKCS1_PADDING except that it additionally verifies that the result
is the correct length and the first two bytes are the protocol version
initially requested by the client. If the encrypted content is publicly
invalid then the decryption will fail. However, if the padding checks
fail then decryption will still appear to succeed but a random TLS
premaster secret will be returned instead. This padding mode accepts
two parameters which can be set using the EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params(3)
function. These are OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_TLS_CLIENT_VERSION and
OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_TLS_NEGOTIATED_VERSION, both of which are
expected to be unsigned integers. Normally only the first of these will
be set and represents the TLS protocol version that was first requested
by the client (e.g. 0x0303 for TLSv1.2, 0x0302 for TLSv1.1 etc).
Historically some buggy clients would use the negotiated protocol
version instead of the protocol version first requested. If this
behaviour should be tolerated then
OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_TLS_NEGOTIATED_VERSION should be set to the
actual negotiated protocol version. Otherwise it should be left unset.
DSA parameters
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dsa_paramgen_bits() sets the number of bits used for
DSA parameter generation to nbits. If not specified, 2048 is used.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dsa_paramgen_q_bits() sets the number of bits in the
subprime parameter q for DSA parameter generation to qbits. If not
specified, 224 is used. If a digest function is specified below, this
parameter is ignored and instead, the number of bits in q matches the
size of the digest.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dsa_paramgen_md() sets the digest function used for
DSA parameter generation to md. If not specified, one of SHA-1,
SHA-224, or SHA-256 is selected to match the bit length of q above.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dsa_paramgen_md_props() sets the digest function used
for DSA parameter generation using md_name and md_properties to
retrieve the digest from a provider. If not specified, md_name will be
set to one of SHA-1, SHA-224, or SHA-256 depending on the bit length of
q above. md_properties is a property query string that has a default
value of '' if not specified.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dsa_paramgen_gindex() sets the gindex used by the
generator G. The default value is -1 which uses unverifiable g,
otherwise a positive value uses verifiable g. This value must be saved
if key validation of g is required, since it is not part of a persisted
key.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dsa_paramgen_seed() sets the seed to use for
generation rather than using a randomly generated value for the seed.
This is useful for testing purposes only and can fail if the seed does
not produce primes for both p & q on its first iteration. This value
must be saved if key validation of p, q, and verifiable g are required,
since it is not part of a persisted key.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dsa_paramgen_type() sets the generation type to use
FIPS186-4 generation if name is "fips186_4", or FIPS186-2 generation if
name is "fips186_2". The default value for the default provider is
"fips186_2". The default value for the FIPS provider is "fips186_4".
DH parameters
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_paramgen_prime_len() sets the length of the DH
prime parameter p for DH parameter generation. If this function is not
called then 2048 is used. Only accepts lengths greater than or equal to
256.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_paramgen_subprime_len() sets the length of the DH
optional subprime parameter q for DH parameter generation. The default
is 256 if the prime is at least 2048 bits long or 160 otherwise. The DH
paramgen type must have been set to "fips186_4".
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_paramgen_generator() sets DH generator to gen for
DH parameter generation. If not specified 2 is used.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_paramgen_type() sets the key type for DH parameter
generation. The supported parameters are:
DH_PARAMGEN_TYPE_GROUP
Use a named group. If only the safe prime parameter p is set this
can be used to select a ffdhe safe prime group of the correct size.
DH_PARAMGEN_TYPE_FIPS_186_4
FIPS186-4 FFC parameter generator.
DH_PARAMGEN_TYPE_FIPS_186_2
FIPS186-2 FFC parameter generator (X9.42 DH).
DH_PARAMGEN_TYPE_GENERATOR
Uses a safe prime generator g (PKCS#3 format).
The default in the default provider is DH_PARAMGEN_TYPE_GENERATOR for
the "DH" keytype, and DH_PARAMGEN_TYPE_FIPS_186_2 for the "DHX"
keytype. In the FIPS provider the default value is
DH_PARAMGEN_TYPE_GROUP for the "DH" keytype and
<DH_PARAMGEN_TYPE_FIPS_186_4 for the "DHX" keytype.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_paramgen_gindex() sets the gindex used by the
generator G. The default value is -1 which uses unverifiable g,
otherwise a positive value uses verifiable g. This value must be saved
if key validation of g is required, since it is not part of a persisted
key.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_paramgen_seed() sets the seed to use for generation
rather than using a randomly generated value for the seed. This is
useful for testing purposes only and can fail if the seed does not
produce primes for both p & q on its first iteration. This value must
be saved if key validation of p, q, and verifiable g are required,
since it is not part of a persisted key.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_pad() sets the DH padding mode. If pad is 1 the
shared secret is padded with zeros up to the size of the DH prime p.
If pad is zero (the default) then no padding is performed.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_nid() sets the DH parameters to values
corresponding to nid as defined in RFC7919 or RFC3526. The nid
parameter must be NID_ffdhe2048, NID_ffdhe3072, NID_ffdhe4096,
NID_ffdhe6144, NID_ffdhe8192, NID_modp_1536, NID_modp_2048,
NID_modp_3072, NID_modp_4096, NID_modp_6144, NID_modp_8192 or NID_undef
to clear the stored value. This function can be called during parameter
or key generation. The nid parameter and the rfc5114 parameter are
mutually exclusive.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_rfc5114() and EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dhx_rfc5114() both
set the DH parameters to the values defined in RFC5114. The rfc5114
parameter must be 1, 2 or 3 corresponding to RFC5114 sections 2.1, 2.2
and 2.3. or 0 to clear the stored value. This macro can be called
during parameter generation. The ctx must have a key type of
EVP_PKEY_DHX. The rfc5114 parameter and the nid parameter are mutually
exclusive.
DH key derivation function parameters
Note that all of the following functions require that the ctx parameter
has a private key type of EVP_PKEY_DHX. When using key derivation, the
output of EVP_PKEY_derive() is the output of the KDF instead of the DH
shared secret. The KDF output is typically used as a Key Encryption
Key (KEK) that in turn encrypts a Content Encryption Key (CEK).
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_kdf_type() sets the key derivation function type to
kdf for DH key derivation. Possible values are EVP_PKEY_DH_KDF_NONE and
EVP_PKEY_DH_KDF_X9_42 which uses the key derivation specified in
RFC2631 (based on the keying algorithm described in X9.42). When using
key derivation, the kdf_oid, kdf_md and kdf_outlen parameters must also
be specified.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_dh_kdf_type() gets the key derivation function type
for ctx used for DH key derivation. Possible values are
EVP_PKEY_DH_KDF_NONE and EVP_PKEY_DH_KDF_X9_42.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set0_dh_kdf_oid() sets the key derivation function object
identifier to oid for DH key derivation. This OID should identify the
algorithm to be used with the Content Encryption Key. The library
takes ownership of the object identifier so the caller should not free
the original memory pointed to by oid.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get0_dh_kdf_oid() gets the key derivation function oid for
ctx used for DH key derivation. The resulting pointer is owned by the
library and should not be freed by the caller.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_kdf_md() sets the key derivation function message
digest to md for DH key derivation. Note that RFC2631 specifies that
this digest should be SHA1 but OpenSSL tolerates other digests.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_dh_kdf_md() gets the key derivation function message
digest for ctx used for DH key derivation.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_kdf_outlen() sets the key derivation function
output length to len for DH key derivation.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_dh_kdf_outlen() gets the key derivation function
output length for ctx used for DH key derivation.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set0_dh_kdf_ukm() sets the user key material to ukm and
its length to len for DH key derivation. This parameter is optional and
corresponds to the partyAInfo field in RFC2631 terms. The specification
requires that it is 512 bits long but this is not enforced by OpenSSL.
The library takes ownership of the user key material so the caller
should not free the original memory pointed to by ukm.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get0_dh_kdf_ukm() gets the user key material for ctx. The
return value is the user key material length. The resulting pointer is
owned by the library and should not be freed by the caller.
EC parameters
Use EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_group_name() (described above) to set the curve
name to name for parameter and key generation.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ec_paramgen_curve_nid() does the same as
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_group_name(), but is specific to EC and uses a nid
rather than a name string.
For EC parameter generation, one of EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_group_name() or
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ec_paramgen_curve_nid() must be called or an error
occurs because there is no default curve. These function can also be
called to set the curve explicitly when generating an EC key.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_group_name() (described above) can be used to obtain
the curve name that's currently set with ctx.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ec_param_enc() sets the EC parameter encoding to
param_enc when generating EC parameters or an EC key. The encoding can
be OPENSSL_EC_EXPLICIT_CURVE for explicit parameters (the default in
versions of OpenSSL before 1.1.0) or OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE to use
named curve form. For maximum compatibility the named curve form
should be used. Note: the OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE value was added in
OpenSSL 1.1.0; previous versions should use 0 instead.
ECDH parameters
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_cofactor_mode() sets the cofactor mode to
cofactor_mode for ECDH key derivation. Possible values are 1 to enable
cofactor key derivation, 0 to disable it and -1 to clear the stored
cofactor mode and fallback to the private key cofactor mode.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_ecdh_cofactor_mode() returns the cofactor mode for ctx
used for ECDH key derivation. Possible values are 1 when cofactor key
derivation is enabled and 0 otherwise.
ECDH key derivation function parameters
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_type() sets the key derivation function type
to kdf for ECDH key derivation. Possible values are
EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_NONE and EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 which uses the key
derivation specified in X9.63. When using key derivation, the kdf_md
and kdf_outlen parameters must also be specified.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_ecdh_kdf_type() returns the key derivation function
type for ctx used for ECDH key derivation. Possible values are
EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_NONE and EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_md() sets the key derivation function message
digest to md for ECDH key derivation. Note that X9.63 specifies that
this digest should be SHA1 but OpenSSL tolerates other digests.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_ecdh_kdf_md() gets the key derivation function message
digest for ctx used for ECDH key derivation.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_outlen() sets the key derivation function
output length to len for ECDH key derivation.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_ecdh_kdf_outlen() gets the key derivation function
output length for ctx used for ECDH key derivation.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set0_ecdh_kdf_ukm() sets the user key material to ukm for
ECDH key derivation. This parameter is optional and corresponds to the
shared info in X9.63 terms. The library takes ownership of the user key
material so the caller should not free the original memory pointed to
by ukm.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get0_ecdh_kdf_ukm() gets the user key material for ctx.
The return value is the user key material length. The resulting pointer
is owned by the library and should not be freed by the caller.
Other parameters
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id(), EVP_PKEY_CTX_get1_id() and
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get1_id_len() are used to manipulate the special
identifier field for specific signature algorithms such as SM2. The
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id() sets an ID pointed by id with the length id_len
to the library. The library takes a copy of the id so that the caller
can safely free the original memory pointed to by id.
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get1_id_len() returns the length of the ID set via a
previous call to EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_id(). The length is usually used to
allocate adequate memory for further calls to EVP_PKEY_CTX_get1_id().
EVP_PKEY_CTX_get1_id() returns the previously set ID value to caller in
id. The caller should allocate adequate memory space for the id before
calling EVP_PKEY_CTX_get1_id().
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_kem_op() sets the KEM operation to run. This can be
set after EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init() or EVP_PKEY_decapsulate_init() to
select the kem operation. RSA is the only key type that supports
encapsulation currently, and as there is no default operation for the
RSA type, this function must be called before EVP_PKEY_encapsulate() or
EVP_PKEY_decapsulate().
RETURN VALUES
All other functions described on this page return a positive value for
success and 0 or a negative value for failure. In particular a return
value of -2 indicates the operation is not supported by the public key
algorithm.
