32=head1 DESCRIPTION
33
34EVP_KEYEXCH_fetch() fetches the key exchange implementation for the given
35I<algorithm> from any provider offering it, within the criteria given
36by the I<properties>.
37See L<crypto(7)/ALGORITHM FETCHING> for further information.
38
39The returned value must eventually be freed with EVP_KEYEXCH_free().
40
41EVP_KEYEXCH_free() decrements the reference count for the B<EVP_KEYEXCH>
42structure. Typically this structure will have been obtained from an earlier call
43to EVP_KEYEXCH_fetch(). If the reference count drops to 0 then the
44structure is freed.
45
46EVP_KEYEXCH_up_ref() increments the reference count for an B<EVP_KEYEXCH>
47structure.
48
49EVP_KEYEXCH_get0_provider() returns the provider that I<exchange> was
50fetched from.
51
52EVP_KEYEXCH_is_a() checks if I<exchange> is an implementation of an
53algorithm that's identifiable with I<name>.
54
55EVP_KEYEXCH_get0_name() returns the algorithm name from the provided
56implementation for the given I<exchange>. Note that the I<exchange> may have
57multiple synonyms associated with it. In this case the first name from the
58algorithm definition is returned. Ownership of the returned string is retained
59by the I<exchange> object and should not be freed by the caller.
60
61EVP_KEYEXCH_names_do_all() traverses all names for the I<exchange>, and
62calls I<fn> with each name and I<data>.
63
64EVP_KEYEXCH_get0_description() returns a description of the I<keyexch>, meant
65for display and human consumption.  The description is at the discretion of
66the I<keyexch> implementation.
67
68EVP_KEYEXCH_do_all_provided() traverses all key exchange implementations by
69all activated providers in the library context I<libctx>, and for each
70of the implementations, calls I<fn> with the implementation method and
71I<data> as arguments.
72
73EVP_KEYEXCH_gettable_ctx_params() and EVP_KEYEXCH_settable_ctx_params() return
74a constant B<OSSL_PARAM> array that describes the names and types of key
75parameters that can be retrieved or set by a key exchange algorithm using
76L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_params(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params(3)>.
77
78=head1 RETURN VALUES
79
80EVP_KEYEXCH_fetch() returns a pointer to a B<EVP_KEYEXCH> for success
81or NULL for failure.
82
83EVP_KEYEXCH_up_ref() returns 1 for success or 0 otherwise.
84
85EVP_KEYEXCH_names_do_all() returns 1 if the callback was called for all
86names. A return value of 0 means that the callback was not called for any names.
87
88EVP_KEYEXCH_is_a() returns 1 of I<exchange> was identifiable,
89otherwise 0.
90
91EVP_KEYEXCH_gettable_ctx_params() and EVP_KEYEXCH_settable_ctx_params() return
92a constant B<OSSL_PARAM> array or NULL on error.
