=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/evp.h>
const OSSL_PARAM *EVP_PKEY_settable_params(EVP_PKEY *pkey);
int EVP_PKEY_set_params(EVP_PKEY *pkey, OSSL_PARAM params[]);
int EVP_PKEY_set_int_param(EVP_PKEY *pkey, const char *key_name, int in);
int EVP_PKEY_set_size_t_param(EVP_PKEY *pkey, const char *key_name, size_t in);
int EVP_PKEY_set_bn_param(EVP_PKEY *pkey, const char *key_name, BIGNUM *bn);
int EVP_PKEY_set_utf8_string_param(EVP_PKEY *pkey, const char *key_name,
char *str);
int EVP_PKEY_set_octet_string_param(EVP_PKEY *pkey, const char *key_name,
unsigned char *buf, size_t bsize);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
These functions can be used to set additional parameters into an existing
B<EVP_PKEY>.
EVP_PKEY_set_params() sets one or more I<params> into a I<pkey>.
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> for information about parameters.
EVP_PKEY_settable_params() returns a constant list of I<params> indicating
the names and types of key parameters that can be set.
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> for information about parameters.
EVP_PKEY_set_int_param() sets an integer value I<in> into a key I<pkey> for the
associated field I<key_name>.
EVP_PKEY_set_size_t_param() sets an size_t value I<in> into a key I<pkey> for
the associated field I<key_name>.
EVP_PKEY_set_bn_param() sets the BIGNUM value I<bn> into a key I<pkey> for the
associated field I<key_name>.
EVP_PKEY_set_utf8_string_param() sets the UTF8 string I<str> into a key I<pkey>
for the associated field I<key_name>.
EVP_PKEY_set_octet_string_param() sets the octet string value I<buf> with a
size I<bsize> into a key I<pkey> for the associated field I<key_name>.
=head1 NOTES
These functions only work for B<EVP_PKEY>s that contain a provider side key.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
EVP_PKEY_settable_params() returns NULL on error or if it is not supported,
All other methods return 1 if a value was successfully set, or 0 if
there was an error.
=head1 SEE ALSO
L<EVP_PKEY_gettable_params(3)>,
L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(3)>, L<provider-keymgmt(7)>, L<OSSL_PARAM(3)>,
=head1 HISTORY
These functions were added in OpenSSL 3.0.
