DESCRIPTION
The PKCS#8 functions encode and decode private keys in PKCS#8 format
using both PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#5 v2.0 password based encryption
algorithms.
Other than the use of DER as opposed to PEM these functions are
identical to the corresponding PEM function as described in the pem(3)
manual page.
NOTES
Before using these functions OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(3) should be
called to initialize the internal algorithm lookup tables otherwise
errors about unknown algorithms will occur if an attempt is made to
decrypt a private key.
These functions are currently the only way to store encrypted private
keys using DER format.
Currently all the functions use BIOs or FILE pointers, there are no
functions which work directly on memory: this can be readily worked
around by converting the buffers to memory BIOs, see BIO_s_mem(3) for
details.
