A new EC_KEY with no associated curve can be constructed by calling +EC_KEY_new(). The reference count for the newly created EC_KEY is initially +set to 1. A curve can be associated with the EC_KEY by calling +EC_KEY_set_group(). + +Alternatively a new EC_KEY can be constructed by calling +EC_KEY_new_by_curve_name() and supplying the nid of the associated curve. See +L for a description of curve names. This function simply +wraps calls to EC_KEY_new() and EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(). + +Calling EC_KEY_free() decrements the reference count for the EC_KEY object, +and if it has dropped to zero then frees the memory associated with it. If +B is NULL nothing is done. + +EC_KEY_copy() copies the contents of the EC_KEY in B into B. + +EC_KEY_dup() creates a new EC_KEY object and copies B into it. + +EC_KEY_up_ref() increments the reference count associated with the EC_KEY +object. + +EC_KEY_generate_key() generates a new public and private key for the supplied +B object. B must have an EC_GROUP object associated with it +before calling this function. The private key is a random integer (0 < priv_key +< order, where I is the order of the EC_GROUP object). The public key is +an EC_POINT on the curve calculated by multiplying the generator for the +curve by the private key. + +EC_KEY_check_key() performs various sanity checks on the EC_KEY object to +confirm that it is valid. + +EC_KEY_set_public_key_affine_coordinates() sets the public key for B based +on its affine co-ordinates; i.e., it constructs an EC_POINT object based on +the supplied B and B values and sets the public key to be this +EC_POINT. It also performs certain sanity checks on the key to confirm +that it is valid. + +The functions EC_KEY_get0_group(), EC_KEY_set_group(), +EC_KEY_get0_private_key(), EC_KEY_set_private_key(), EC_KEY_get0_public_key(), +and EC_KEY_set_public_key() get and set the EC_GROUP object, the private key, +and the EC_POINT public key for the B respectively. + +The functions EC_KEY_get_conv_form() and EC_KEY_set_conv_form() get and set the +point_conversion_form for the B. For a description of +point_conversion_forms please see L. + +EC_KEY_set_flags() sets the flags in the B parameter on the EC_KEY +object. Any flags that are already set are left set. The flags currently +defined are EC_FLAG_NON_FIPS_ALLOW and EC_FLAG_FIPS_CHECKED. In +addition there is the flag EC_FLAG_COFACTOR_ECDH which is specific to ECDH. +EC_KEY_get_flags() returns the current flags that are set for this EC_KEY. +EC_KEY_clear_flags() clears the flags indicated by the B parameter; all +other flags are left in their existing state. + +EC_KEY_set_asn1_flag() sets the asn1_flag on the underlying EC_GROUP object +(if set). Refer to L for further information on the +asn1_flag. + +EC_KEY_precompute_mult() stores multiples of the underlying EC_GROUP generator +for faster point multiplication. See also L. + +EC_KEY_oct2key() and EC_KEY_key2buf() are identical to the functions +EC_POINT_oct2point() and EC_KEY_point2buf() except they use the public key +EC_POINT in B. + +EC_KEY_oct2priv() and EC_KEY_priv2oct() convert between the private key +component of B and octet form. The octet form consists of the content +octets of the B OCTET STRING in an B ASN.1 structure. + +The function EC_KEY_priv2oct() must be supplied with a buffer long enough to +store the octet form. The return value provides the number of octets stored. +Calling the function with a NULL buffer will not perform the conversion but +will just return the required buffer length. + +The function EC_KEY_priv2buf() allocates a buffer of suitable length and writes +an EC_KEY to it in octet format. The allocated buffer is written to B<*pbuf> +and its length is returned. The caller must free up the allocated buffer with a +call to OPENSSL_free(). Since the allocated buffer value is written to B<*pbuf> +the B parameter B be B. + +EC_KEY_priv2buf() converts an EC_KEY private key into an allocated buffer. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +EC_KEY_new(), EC_KEY_new_by_curve_name() and EC_KEY_dup() return a pointer to +the newly created EC_KEY object, or NULL on error. + +EC_KEY_get_flags() returns the flags associated with the EC_KEY object as an +integer. + +EC_KEY_copy() returns a pointer to the destination key, or NULL on error. + +EC_KEY_up_ref(), EC_KEY_set_group(), EC_KEY_set_private_key(), +EC_KEY_set_public_key(), EC_KEY_precompute_mult(), EC_KEY_generate_key(), +EC_KEY_check_key(), EC_KEY_set_public_key_affine_coordinates(), +EC_KEY_oct2key() and EC_KEY_oct2priv() return 1 on success or 0 on error. + +EC_KEY_get0_group() returns the EC_GROUP associated with the EC_KEY. + +EC_KEY_get0_private_key() returns the private key associated with the EC_KEY. + +EC_KEY_get_conv_form() return the point_conversion_form for the EC_KEY. + +EC_KEY_key2buf(), EC_KEY_priv2oct() and EC_KEY_priv2buf() return the length +of the buffer or 0 on error. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L, L, +L, L, +L, +L, +L + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2013-2017 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
