17 The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can
19 be hidden entirely by defining OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable

65 All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
66 Applications should instead use the provider APIs.
67 The DH_METHOD type is a structure used for the provision of custom DH
69 implementations. It provides a set of functions used by OpenSSL for the
70 implementation of the various DH capabilities.
71 DH_meth_new() creates a new DH_METHOD structure. It should be given a
73 unique name and a set of flags. The name should be a NULL terminated
74 string, which will be duplicated and stored in the DH_METHOD object. It
75 is the callers responsibility to free the original string. The flags
76 will be used during the construction of a new DH object based on this
77 DH_METHOD. Any new DH object will have those flags set by default.
78 DH_meth_dup() creates a duplicate copy of the DH_METHOD object passed
80 as a parameter. This might be useful for creating a new DH_METHOD based
81 on an existing one, but with some differences.
82 DH_meth_free() destroys a DH_METHOD structure and frees up any memory
84 associated with it.
85 DH_meth_get0_name() will return a pointer to the name of this
87 DH_METHOD. This is a pointer to the internal name string and so should
88 not be freed by the caller. DH_meth_set1_name() sets the name of the
89 DH_METHOD to name. The string is duplicated and the copy is stored in
90 the DH_METHOD structure, so the caller remains responsible for freeing
91 the memory associated with the name.
92 DH_meth_get_flags() returns the current value of the flags associated
94 with this DH_METHOD. DH_meth_set_flags() provides the ability to set
95 these flags.
96 The functions DH_meth_get0_app_data() and DH_meth_set0_app_data()
98 provide the ability to associate implementation specific data with the
99 DH_METHOD. It is the application's responsibility to free this data
100 before the DH_METHOD is freed via a call to DH_meth_free().
101 DH_meth_get_generate_key() and DH_meth_set_generate_key() get and set
103 the function used for generating a new DH key pair respectively. This
104 function will be called in response to the application calling
105 DH_generate_key(). The parameter for the function has the same meaning
106 as for DH_generate_key().
107 DH_meth_get_compute_key() and DH_meth_set_compute_key() get and set the
109 function used for computing a new DH shared secret respectively. This
110 function will be called in response to the application calling
111 DH_compute_key(). The parameters for the function have the same meaning
112 as for DH_compute_key().
113 DH_meth_get_bn_mod_exp() and DH_meth_set_bn_mod_exp() get and set the
115 function used for computing the following value:
116 r = a ^ p mod m
118 This function will be called by the default OpenSSL function for
120 DH_generate_key(). The result is stored in the r parameter. This
121 function may be NULL unless using the default generate key function, in
122 which case it must be present.
123 DH_meth_get_init() and DH_meth_set_init() get and set the function used
125 for creating a new DH instance respectively. This function will be
126 called in response to the application calling DH_new() (if the current
127 default DH_METHOD is this one) or DH_new_method(). The DH_new() and
128 DH_new_method() functions will allocate the memory for the new DH
129 object, and a pointer to this newly allocated structure will be passed
130 as a parameter to the function. This function may be NULL.
131 DH_meth_get_finish() and DH_meth_set_finish() get and set the function
133 used for destroying an instance of a DH object respectively. This
134 function will be called in response to the application calling
135 DH_free(). A pointer to the DH to be destroyed is passed as a
136 parameter. The destroy function should be used for DH implementation
137 specific clean up. The memory for the DH itself should not be freed by
138 this function. This function may be NULL.
139 DH_meth_get_generate_params() and DH_meth_set_generate_params() get and
141 set the function used for generating DH parameters respectively. This
142 function will be called in response to the application calling
143 DH_generate_parameters_ex() (or DH_generate_parameters()). The
144 parameters for the function have the same meaning as for
145 DH_generate_parameters_ex(). This function may be NULL.
146
148 DH_meth_new() and DH_meth_dup() return the newly allocated DH_METHOD
149 object or NULL on failure.
150 DH_meth_get0_name() and DH_meth_get_flags() return the name and flags
152 associated with the DH_METHOD respectively.
153 All other DH_meth_get_*() functions return the appropriate function
155 pointer that has been set in the DH_METHOD, or NULL if no such pointer
156 has yet been set.
157 DH_meth_set1_name() and all DH_meth_set_*() functions return 1 on
159 success or 0 on failure.

166 All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
167 The functions described here were added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
