+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/evp.h>
+
+ typedef struct evp_keymgmt_st EVP_KEYMGMT;
+
+ EVP_KEYMGMT *EVP_KEYMGMT_fetch(OPENSSL_CTX *ctx, const char *algorithm,
+                                const char *properties);
+ int EVP_KEYMGMT_up_ref(EVP_KEYMGMT *keymgmt);
+ void EVP_KEYMGMT_free(EVP_KEYMGMT *keymgmt);
+ const OSSL_PROVIDER *EVP_KEYMGMT_provider(const EVP_KEYMGMT *keymgmt);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<EVP_KEYMGMT> is a method object that represents key management
+implementations for different cryptographic algorithms.
+This method object provides functionality to have providers import key
+material from the outside, as well as export key material to the
+outside.
+Most of the functionality can only be used internally and has no
+public interface, this object is simply passed into other functions
+when needed.
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_fetch() looks for an algorithm within the provider that
+has been loaded into the B<OPENSSL_CTX> given by I<ctx>, having the
+name given by I<algorithm> and the properties given by I<properties>.
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_up_ref() increments the reference count for the given
+B<EVP_KEYMGMT> I<keymgmt>.
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_free() decrements the reference count for the given
+B<EVP_KEYMGMT> I<keymgmt>, and when the count reaches zero, frees it.
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_provider() returns the provider that has this particular
+implementation.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_fetch() may be called implicitly by other fetching
+functions, using the same library context and properties.
+Any other API that uses keys will typically do this.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_fetch() returns a pointer to the key management
+implementation represented by an EVP_KEYMGMT object, or NULL on
+error.
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_up_ref() returns 1 on success, or 0 on error.
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_free() doesn't return any value.
+
+EVP_KEYMGMT_provider() returns a pointer to a provider object, or NULL
+on error.
