LIFE_CYCLE-PKEY(7ossl) OpenSSL LIFE_CYCLE-PKEY(7ossl) NAME life_cycle-pkey - The PKEY algorithm life-cycle DESCRIPTION All public keys (PKEYs) go through a number of stages in their life- cycle: start This state represents the PKEY before it has been allocated. It is the starting state for any life-cycle transitions. newed This state represents the PKEY after it has been allocated. decapsulate This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to perform a private key decapsulation operation. decrypt This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to decrypt some ciphertext. derive This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to derive a shared secret. digest sign This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to perform a private key signature operation. encapsulate This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to perform a public key encapsulation operation. encrypt This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to encrypt some plaintext. key generation This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to generate a new public/private key. parameter generation This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to generate key parameters. verify This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to verify a public key signature. verify recover This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to recover a public key signature data. freed This state is entered when the PKEY is freed.
