        int X509_PUBKEY_get0_param(ASN1_OBJECT **ppkalg,
                                   const unsigned char **pk, int *ppklen,
                                   X509_ALGOR **pa, X509_PUBKEY *pub);
DESCRIPTION
       The X509_PUBKEY structure represents the ASN.1 SubjectPublicKeyInfo
       structure defined in RFC5280 and used in certificates and certificate
       requests.
       X509_PUBKEY_new() allocates and initializes an X509_PUBKEY structure.
       X509_PUBKEY_free() frees up X509_PUBKEY structure a. If a is NULL
       nothing is done.
       X509_PUBKEY_set() sets the public key in *x to the public key contained
       in the EVP_PKEY structure pkey. If *x is not NULL any existing public
       key structure will be freed.
       X509_PUBKEY_get0() returns the public key contained in key. The
       returned value is an internal pointer which MUST NOT be freed after
       use.
       X509_PUBKEY_get() is similar to X509_PUBKEY_get0() except the reference
       count on the returned key is incremented so it MUST be freed using
       EVP_PKEY_free() after use.
       d2i_PUBKEY() and i2d_PUBKEY() decode and encode an EVP_PKEY structure
       using SubjectPublicKeyInfo format. They otherwise follow the
       conventions of other ASN.1 functions such as d2i_X509().
       d2i_PUBKEY_bio(), d2i_PUBKEY_fp(), i2d_PUBKEY_bio() and i2d_PUBKEY_fp()
       are similar to d2i_PUBKEY() and i2d_PUBKEY() except they decode or
       encode using a BIO or FILE pointer.
       X509_PUBKEY_set0_param() sets the public key parameters of pub. The OID
       associated with the algorithm is set to aobj. The type of the algorithm
       parameters is set to type using the structure pval.  The encoding of
       the public key itself is set to the penclen bytes contained in buffer
       penc. On success ownership of all the supplied parameters is passed to
       pub so they must not be freed after the call.
       X509_PUBKEY_get0_param() retrieves the public key parameters from pub,
       *ppkalg is set to the associated OID and the encoding consists of
       *ppklen bytes at *pk, *pa is set to the associated AlgorithmIdentifier
       for the public key. If the value of any of these parameters is not
       required it can be set to NULL. All of the retrieved pointers are
       internal and must not be freed after the call.
NOTES
       The X509_PUBKEY functions can be used to encode and decode public keys
       in a standard format.
       In many cases applications will not call the X509_PUBKEY functions
       directly: they will instead call wrapper functions such as
       X509_get0_pubkey().
RETURN VALUES
       If the allocation fails, X509_PUBKEY_new() returns NULL and sets an
       error code that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).
       Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
       X509_PUBKEY_free() does not return a value.
       X509_PUBKEY_get0() and X509_PUBKEY_get() return a pointer to an
       EVP_PKEY structure or NULL if an error occurs.
       X509_PUBKEY_set(), X509_PUBKEY_set0_param() and
       X509_PUBKEY_get0_param() return 1 for success and 0 if an error
       occurred.
