=head1 NAME
EVP_PKEY_missing_parameters, EVP_PKEY_copy_parameters, EVP_PKEY_parameters_eq,
EVP_PKEY_cmp_parameters, EVP_PKEY_eq,
EVP_PKEY_cmp - public key parameter and comparison functions
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/evp.h>
int EVP_PKEY_missing_parameters(const EVP_PKEY *pkey);
int EVP_PKEY_copy_parameters(EVP_PKEY *to, const EVP_PKEY *from);
int EVP_PKEY_parameters_eq(const EVP_PKEY *a, const EVP_PKEY *b);
int EVP_PKEY_cmp_parameters(const EVP_PKEY *a, const EVP_PKEY *b);
int EVP_PKEY_eq(const EVP_PKEY *a, const EVP_PKEY *b);
int EVP_PKEY_cmp(const EVP_PKEY *a, const EVP_PKEY *b);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The function EVP_PKEY_missing_parameters() returns 1 if the public key
parameters of B<pkey> are missing and 0 if they are present or the algorithm
doesn't use parameters.
The function EVP_PKEY_copy_parameters() copies the parameters from key
B<from> to key B<to>. An error is returned if the parameters are missing in
B<from> or present in both B<from> and B<to> and mismatch. If the parameters
in B<from> and B<to> are both present and match this function has no effect.
The function EVP_PKEY_parameters_eq() checks the parameters of keys
B<a> and B<b> for equality.
The function EVP_PKEY_eq() checks the public key components and parameters
(if present) of keys B<a> and B<b> for equality.
=head1 NOTES
The main purpose of the functions EVP_PKEY_missing_parameters() and
EVP_PKEY_copy_parameters() is to handle public keys in certificates where the
parameters are sometimes omitted from a public key if they are inherited from
the CA that signed it.
Since OpenSSL private keys contain public key components too the function
EVP_PKEY_eq() can also be used to determine if a private key matches
a public key.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
The function EVP_PKEY_missing_parameters() returns 1 if the public key
parameters of B<pkey> are missing and 0 if they are present or the algorithm
doesn't use parameters.
These functions EVP_PKEY_copy_parameters() returns 1 for success and 0 for
failure.
The function EVP_PKEY_parameters_eq() and EVP_PKEY_eq() return 1 if their
inputs match, 0 if they don't match, -1 if the key types are different and
-2 if the operation is not supported.
=head1 SEE ALSO

L<EVP_PKEY_keygen(3)>
=head1 HISTORY
The function EVP_PKEY_cmp was deprecated and renamed to B<EVP_PKEY_eq> and
EVP_PKEY_cmp_parameters was deprecated and renamed to B<EVP_PKEY_parameters_eq>
(without changing semantics) in OpenSSL 3.0.
This was done to avoid confusion on their return values with other _cmp()
functions that return 0 in case their arguments are equal.
