+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The B<DH_METHOD> type is a structure used for the provision of custom DH
+implementations. It provides a set of of functions used by OpenSSL for the
+implementation of the various DH capabilities.
+
+DH_meth_new() creates a new B<DH_METHOD> structure. It should be given a
+unique B<name> and a set of B<flags>. The B<name> should be a NULL terminated
+string, which will be duplicated and stored in the B<DH_METHOD> object. It is
+the callers responsibility to free the original string. The flags will be used
+during the construction of a new B<DH> object based on this B<DH_METHOD>. Any
+new B<DH> object will have those flags set by default.
+
+DH_meth_dup() creates a duplicate copy of the B<DH_METHOD> object passed as a
+parameter. This might be useful for creating a new B<DH_METHOD> based on an
+existing one, but with some differences.
+
+DH_meth_free() destroys a B<DH_METHOD> structure and frees up any memory
+associated with it.
+
+DH_meth_get0_name() will return a pointer to the name of this DH_METHOD. This
+is a pointer to the internal name string and so should not be freed by the
+caller. DH_meth_set1_name() sets the name of the DH_METHOD to B<name>. The
+string is duplicated and the copy is stored in the DH_METHOD structure, so the
+caller remains responsible for freeing the memory associated with the name.
+
+DH_meth_get_flags() returns the current value of the flags associated with this
+DH_METHOD. DH_meth_set_flags() provides the ability to set these flags.
+
+The functions DH_meth_get0_app_data() and DH_meth_set0_app_data() provide the
+ability to associate implementation specific data with the DH_METHOD. It is
+the application's responsibility to free this data before the DH_METHOD is
+freed via a call to DH_meth_free().
+
+DH_meth_get_generate_key() and DH_meth_set_generate_key() get and set the
+function used for generating a new DH key pair respectively. This function will
+be called in response to the application calling DH_generate_key(). The
+parameter for the function has the same meaning as for DH_generate_key().
+
+DH_meth_get_compute_key() and DH_meth_set_compute_key() get and set the
+function used for computing a new DH shared secret respectively. This function
+will be called in response to the application calling DH_compute_key(). The
+parameters for the function have the same meaning as for DH_compute_key().
+
+DH_meth_get_bn_mod_exp() and DH_meth_set_bn_mod_exp() get and set the function
+used for computing the following value:
+
+ r = a ^ p mod m
+
+This function will be called by the default OpenSSL function for
+DH_generate_key(). The result is stored in the B<r> parameter. This function
+may be NULL unless using the default generate key function, in which case it
+must be present.
+
+DH_meth_get_init() and DH_meth_set_init() get and set the function used
+for creating a new DH instance respectively. This function will be
+called in response to the application calling DH_new() (if the current default
+DH_METHOD is this one) or DH_new_method(). The DH_new() and DH_new_method()
+functions will allocate the memory for the new DH object, and a pointer to this
+newly allocated structure will be passed as a parameter to the function. This
+function may be NULL.
+
+DH_meth_get_finish() and DH_meth_set_finish() get and set the function used
+for destroying an instance of a DH object respectively. This function will be
+called in response to the application calling DH_free(). A pointer to the DH
+to be destroyed is passed as a parameter. The destroy function should be used
+for DH implementation specific clean up. The memory for the DH itself should
+not be freed by this function. This function may be NULL.
+
+DH_meth_get_generate_params() and DH_meth_set_generate_params() get and set the
+function used for generating DH parameters respectively. This function will be
+called in response to the application calling DH_generate_parameters_ex() (or
+DH_generate_parameters()). The parameters for the function have the same
+meaning as for DH_generate_parameters_ex(). This function may be NULL.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+DH_meth_new() and DH_meth_dup() return the newly allocated DH_METHOD object
+or NULL on failure.
+
+DH_meth_get0_name() and DH_meth_get_flags() return the name and flags
+associated with the DH_METHOD respectively.
+
+All other DH_meth_get_*() functions return the appropriate function pointer
+that has been set in the DH_METHOD, or NULL if no such pointer has yet been
+set.
+
+DH_meth_set1_name() and all DH_meth_set_*() functions return 1 on success or
+0 on failure.
