The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new() function allocates public key algorithm context using

the algorithm specified in I<pkey> and ENGINE I<e>.

the I<pkey> key type and ENGINE I<e>.

using the algorithm specified by I<id> and ENGINE I<e>.
|

using the key type specified by I<id> and ENGINE I<e>.
|
||||
|
||||
The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_provided() function allocates a public key
|
||||
algorithm context using the algorithm specified by I<name> and the
|
||||
property query I<propquery>. The strings aren't duplicated, so they
|
||||
must remain unchanged for the lifetime of the returned B<EVP_PKEY_CTX>
|
||||
or of any of its duplicates.
|
||||
The EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name() function allocates a public key algorithm
|
||||
context using the library context I<libctx> (see L<OPENSSL_CTX(3)>), the
|
||||
key type specified by I<name> and the property query I<propquery>. None
|
||||
of the arguments are duplicated, so they must remain unchanged for the
|
||||
lifetime of the returned B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> or of any of its duplicates.

|
||||
|

The B<EVP_PKEY_CTX> structure is an opaque public key algorithm context used
|
||||
by the OpenSSL high level public key API. Contexts B<MUST NOT> be shared between
|
||||
threads: that is it is not permissible to use the same context simultaneously
|
||||
in two threads.

|

|

We mention "key type" in this manual, which is the same
|
||||
as "algorithm" in most cases, allowing either term to be used
|
||||
interchangeably. There are algorithms where the I<key type> and the
|
||||
I<algorithm> of the operations that use the keys are not the same,
|
||||
such as EC keys being used for ECDSA and ECDH operations.
