.Pp
The rightmost column of the above table shows examples of algorithms
the return values can occur for.
For example, if
.Xr EVP_PKEY_base_id 3
returns
.Dv EVP_PKEY_HKDF ,
then calling
.Fn EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_operation
on a
.Vt EVP_PKEY_CTX
using that key may return
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_DERIVE .
.Pp
If the return value is
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_SIGNCTX
or
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_VERIFYCTX ,
the
.Fa ctx
supports
.Xr EVP_DigestSignUpdate 3
or
.Xr EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate 3 ,
respectively.
If the return value is
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_SIGN
or
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_VERIFY ,
if does not, and only one-shot signing or verification is supported.
.Pp
The return value
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_UNDEFINED
can for example occur if the
.Fa ctx
was freshly returned from
.Xr EVP_PKEY_CTX_new 3
or
.Xr EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id 3
and not yet initialized.
.Pp
The following masks are defined as the logical OR of two or more of the above
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_*
bits:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -width EVP_PKEY_OP_TYPE_NOGEN -compact
.It Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_TYPE_CRYPT
DECRYPT | ENCRYPT
.It Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_TYPE_GEN

CRYPT | DERIVE | SIG
.It Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_TYPE_SIG
SIGN | SIGNCTX | VERIFY | VERIFYCTX | VERIFYRECOVER
.El
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_operation
returns one of the single-bit
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_*
constants or
.Dv EVP_PKEY_OP_UNDEFINED
if
.Fa ctx
is not initialized.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_PKEY_CTX_get0_pkey
returns an internal pointer to the
.Vt EVP_PKEY
object used by
.Fa ctx ,
without incrementing its reference count.
