8=head1 SYNOPSIS
9
10 #include <openssl/x509.h>
11
12 PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *EVP_PKEY2PKCS8(const EVP_PKEY *pkey);
13 EVP_PKEY *EVP_PKCS82PKEY(const PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8);
14 EVP_PKEY *EVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex(const PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8, OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx,
15                             const char *propq);
16
17=head1 DESCRIPTION
18
19EVP_PKEY2PKCS8() converts a private key I<pkey> into a returned PKCS8 object.
20
21EVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex() converts a PKCS8 object I<p8> into a returned private key.
22It uses I<libctx> and I<propq> when fetching algorithms.
23
24EVP_PKCS82PKEY() is similiar to EVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex() but uses default values of
25NULL for the I<libctx> and I<propq>.
26
27=head1 RETURN VALUES
28
29EVP_PKEY2PKCS8() returns a PKCS8 object on success.
30EVP_PKCS82PKEY() and EVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex() return a private key on success.
31
32All functions return NULL if the operation fails.
