<p>life_cycle-pkey - The PKEY algorithm life-cycle</p>

<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>

<p>All public keys (PKEYs) go through a number of stages in their life-cycle:</p>

<dl>

<dt id="start">start</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY before it has been allocated. It is the starting state for any life-cycle transitions.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="newed">newed</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY after it has been allocated.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="decapsulate">decapsulate</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to perform a private key decapsulation operation.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="decrypt">decrypt</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to decrypt some ciphertext.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="derive">derive</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to derive a shared secret.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="digest-sign">digest sign</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to perform a private key signature operation.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="encapsulate">encapsulate</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to perform a public key encapsulation operation.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="encrypt">encrypt</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to encrypt some plaintext.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="key-generation">key generation</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to generate a new public/private key.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="parameter-generation">parameter generation</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to generate key parameters.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="verify">verify</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to verify a public key signature.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="verify-recover">verify recover</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state represents the PKEY when it is ready to recover a public key signature data.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="freed">freed</dt>
<dd>

<p>This state is entered when the PKEY is freed. It is the terminal state for all life-cycle transitions.</p>

</dd>
</dl>
