+=head1 NAME
+
+b2i_PVK_bio, b2i_PVK_bio_ex, i2b_PVK_bio, i2b_PVK_bio_ex - Decode and encode
+functions for reading and writing MSBLOB format private keys
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/pem.h>
+
+ EVP_PKEY *b2i_PVK_bio(BIO *in, pem_password_cb *cb, void *u);
+ EVP_PKEY *b2i_PVK_bio_ex(BIO *in, pem_password_cb *cb, void *u,
+ OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, const char *propq);
+ int i2b_PVK_bio(BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pk, int enclevel,
+ pem_password_cb *cb, void *u);
+ int i2b_PVK_bio_ex(BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pk, int enclevel,
+ pem_password_cb *cb, void *u,
+ OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, const char *propq);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+b2i_PVK_bio_ex() decodes a private key of MSBLOB format read from a B<BIO>. It
+attempts to automatically determine the key type. If the key is encrypted then
+I<cb> is called with the user data I<u> in order to obtain a password to decrypt
+the key. The supplied library context I<libctx> and property query
+string I<propq> are used in any decrypt operation.
+
+b2i_PVK_bio() does the same as b2i_PVK_bio_ex() except that the default
+library context and property query string are used.
+
+i2b_PVK_bio_ex() encodes I<pk> using MSBLOB format. If I<enclevel> is 1 then
+a password obtained via I<pem_password_cb> is used to encrypt the private key.
+If I<enclevel> is 0 then no encryption is applied. The user data in I<u> is
+passed to the password callback. The supplied library context I<libctx> and
+property query string I<propq> are used in any decrypt operation.
+
+i2b_PVK_bio() does the same as i2b_PVK_bio_ex() except that the default
+library context and property query string are used.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+The b2i_PVK_bio() and b2i_PVK_bio_ex() functions return a valid B<EVP_KEY>
+structure or B<NULL> if an error occurs. The error code can be obtained by calling
+L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
+
+i2b_PVK_bio() and i2b_PVK_bio_ex() return the number of bytes successfully
+encoded or a negative value if an error occurs. The error code can be obtained
+by calling L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
