=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)>.
=head1 SEE ALSO
L<crypto(7)>,
L<d2i_PKCS8PrivateKey_bio(3)>
=head1 HISTORY
b2i_PVK_bio_ex() and i2b_PVK_bio_ex() were added in OpenSSL 3.0.
