33=head1 DESCRIPTION
34
35A DH object contains the parameters B<p>, B<q> and B<g>. Note that the B<q>
36parameter is optional. It also contains a public key (B<pub_key>) and
37(optionally) a private key (B<priv_key>).
38
39The B<p>, B<q> and B<g> parameters can be obtained by calling DH_get0_pqg().
40If the parameters have not yet been set then B<*p>, B<*q> and B<*g> will be set
41to NULL. Otherwise they are set to pointers to their respective values. These
42point directly to the internal representations of the values and therefore
43should not be freed directly.
44Any of the out parameters B<p>, B<q>, and B<g> can be NULL, in which case no
45value will be returned for that parameter.
46
47The B<p>, B<q> and B<g> values can be set by calling DH_set0_pqg() and passing
48the new values for B<p>, B<q> and B<g> as parameters to the function. Calling
49this function transfers the memory management of the values to the DH object,
50and therefore the values that have been passed in should not be freed directly
51after this function has been called. The B<q> parameter may be NULL.
52
53To get the public and private key values use the DH_get0_key() function. A
54pointer to the public key will be stored in B<*pub_key>, and a pointer to the
55private key will be stored in B<*priv_key>. Either may be NULL if they have not
56been set yet, although if the private key has been set then the public key must
57be. The values point to the internal representation of the public key and
58private key values. This memory should not be freed directly.
59Any of the out parameters B<pub_key> and B<priv_key> can be NULL, in which case
60no value will be returned for that parameter.
61
62The public and private key values can be set using DH_set0_key(). Either
63parameter may be NULL, which means the corresponding DH field is left
64untouched. As with DH_set0_pqg() this function transfers the memory management
65of the key values to the DH object, and therefore they should not be freed
66directly after this function has been called.
67
68Any of the values B<p>, B<q>, B<g>, B<priv_key>, and B<pub_key> can also be
69retrieved separately by the corresponding function DH_get0_p(), DH_get0_q(),
70DH_get0_g(), DH_get0_priv_key(), and DH_get0_pub_key(), respectively.
71
72DH_set_flags() sets the flags in the B<flags> parameter on the DH object.
73Multiple flags can be passed in one go (bitwise ORed together). Any flags that
74are already set are left set. DH_test_flags() tests to see whether the flags
75passed in the B<flags> parameter are currently set in the DH object. Multiple
76flags can be tested in one go. All flags that are currently set are returned, or
77zero if none of the flags are set. DH_clear_flags() clears the specified flags
78within the DH object.
79
80DH_get0_engine() returns a handle to the ENGINE that has been set for this DH
81object, or NULL if no such ENGINE has been set.
82
83The DH_get_length() and DH_set_length() functions get and set the optional
84length parameter associated with this DH object. If the length is non-zero then
85it is used, otherwise it is ignored. The B<length> parameter indicates the
86length of the secret exponent (private key) in bits.
87
88=head1 NOTES
89
90Values retrieved with DH_get0_key() are owned by the DH object used
91in the call and may therefore I<not> be passed to DH_set0_key().  If
92needed, duplicate the received value using BN_dup() and pass the
93duplicate.  The same applies to DH_get0_pqg() and DH_set0_pqg().
94
95=head1 RETURN VALUES
96
97DH_set0_pqg() and DH_set0_key() return 1 on success or 0 on failure.
98
99DH_get0_p(), DH_get0_q(), DH_get0_g(), DH_get0_priv_key(), and DH_get0_pub_key()
100return the respective value, or NULL if it is unset.
101
102DH_test_flags() returns the current state of the flags in the DH object.
103
104DH_get0_engine() returns the ENGINE set for the DH object or NULL if no ENGINE
105has been set.
106
107DH_get_length() returns the length of the secret exponent (private key) in bits,
108or zero if no such length has been explicitly set.
