+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+This documentation is primarily aimed at provider authors. See \fBprovider\fR\|(7)
+for further information.
+.PP
+The asymmetric kem (OSSL_OP_KEM) operation enables providers to
+implement asymmetric kem algorithms and make them available to applications
+via the API functions \fBEVP_PKEY_encapsulate\fR\|(3),
+\&\fBEVP_PKEY_decapsulate\fR\|(3) and other related functions.
+.PP
+All "functions" mentioned here are passed as function pointers between
+\&\fIlibcrypto\fR and the provider in \fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) arrays via
+\&\fBOSSL_ALGORITHM\fR\|(3) arrays that are returned by the provider\*(Aqs
+\&\fBprovider_query_operation()\fR function
+(see "Provider Functions" in \fBprovider\-base\fR\|(7)).
+.PP
+All these "functions" have a corresponding function type definition
+named \fBOSSL_FUNC_{name}_fn\fR, and a helper function to retrieve the
+function pointer from an \fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) element named
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_{name}\fR.
+For example, the "function" \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx()\fR has these:
+.PP
+.Vb 3
+\& typedef void *(OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx_fn)(void *provctx);
+\& static ossl_inline OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx_fn
+\& OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx(const OSSL_DISPATCH *opf);
+.Ve
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) arrays are indexed by numbers that are provided as
+macros in \fBopenssl\-core_dispatch.h\fR\|(7), as follows:

+.PP
+An asymmetric kem algorithm implementation may not implement all of these
+functions.
+In order to be a consistent set of functions a provider must implement
+OSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx and OSSL_FUNC_kem_freectx.
+It must also implement both of OSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate_init and
+OSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate, or both of OSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate_init and
+OSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate.
+OSSL_FUNC_kem_auth_encapsulate_init is optional but if it is present then so
+must OSSL_FUNC_kem_auth_decapsulate_init.
+OSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params is optional but if it is present then so must
+OSSL_FUNC_kem_gettable_ctx_params.
+Similarly, OSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params is optional but if it is present then
+OSSL_FUNC_kem_settable_ctx_params must also be present.
+.PP
+An asymmetric kem algorithm must also implement some mechanism for generating,
+loading or importing keys via the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation.
+See \fBprovider\-keymgmt\fR\|(7) for further details.
+.SS "Context Management Functions"
+.IX Subsection "Context Management Functions"
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx()\fR should create and return a pointer to a provider side
+structure for holding context information during an asymmetric kem operation.
+A pointer to this context will be passed back in a number of the other
+asymmetric kem operation function calls.
+The parameter \fIprovctx\fR is the provider context generated during provider
+initialisation (see \fBprovider\fR\|(7)).
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_freectx()\fR is passed a pointer to the provider side asymmetric
+kem context in the \fIctx\fR parameter.
+This function should free any resources associated with that context.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_dupctx()\fR should duplicate the provider side asymmetric kem
+context in the \fIctx\fR parameter and return the duplicate copy.
+.SS "Asymmetric Key Encapsulation Functions"
+.IX Subsection "Asymmetric Key Encapsulation Functions"
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate_init()\fR initialises a context for an asymmetric
+encapsulation given a provider side asymmetric kem context in the \fIctx\fR
+parameter, a pointer to a provider key object in the \fIprovkey\fR parameter and
+the \fIname\fR of the algorithm.
+The \fIparams\fR, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
+using \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params()\fR.
+The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
+the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see
+\&\fBprovider\-keymgmt\fR\|(7)>.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_auth_encapsulate_init()\fR is similar to
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate_init()\fR, but also passes an additional authentication
+key \fIprovauthkey\fR which cannot be NULL.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate()\fR performs the actual encapsulation itself.
+A previously initialised asymmetric kem context is passed in the \fIctx\fR
+parameter.
+Unless \fIout\fR is NULL, the data to be encapsulated is internally generated,
+and returned into the buffer pointed to by the \fIsecret\fR parameter and the
+encapsulated data should also be written to the location pointed to by the
+\&\fIout\fR parameter. The length of the encapsulated data should be written to
+\&\fI*outlen\fR and the length of the generated secret should be written to
+\&\fI*secretlen\fR.
+.PP
+If \fIout\fR is NULL then the maximum length of the encapsulated data should be
+written to \fI*outlen\fR, and the maximum length of the generated secret should be
+written to \fI*secretlen\fR.
+.SS "Decapsulation Functions"
+.IX Subsection "Decapsulation Functions"
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate_init()\fR initialises a context for an asymmetric
+decapsulation given a provider side asymmetric kem context in the \fIctx\fR
+parameter, a pointer to a provider key object in the \fIprovkey\fR parameter, and
+a \fIname\fR of the algorithm.
+The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
+the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see
+\&\fBprovider\-keymgmt\fR\|(7)>.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_auth_decapsulate_init()\fR is similar to
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate_init()\fR, but also passes an additional authentication
+key \fIprovauthkey\fR which cannot be NULL.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate()\fR performs the actual decapsulation itself.
+A previously initialised asymmetric kem context is passed in the \fIctx\fR
+parameter.
+The data to be decapsulated is pointed to by the \fIin\fR parameter which is \fIinlen\fR
+bytes long.
+Unless \fIout\fR is NULL, the decapsulated data should be written to the location
+pointed to by the \fIout\fR parameter.
+The length of the decapsulated data should be written to \fI*outlen\fR.
+If \fIout\fR is NULL then the maximum length of the decapsulated data should be
+written to \fI*outlen\fR.
+.SS "Asymmetric Key Encapsulation Parameters"
+.IX Subsection "Asymmetric Key Encapsulation Parameters"
+See \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) for further details on the parameters structure used by
+the \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params()\fR
+functions.
+.PP
+The OpenSSL FIPS provider also supports the following parameters:
+.IP """fips\-indicator"" (\fBOSSL_KEM_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR\fR) <integer>" 4
+.IX Item """fips-indicator"" (OSSL_KEM_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR) <integer>"
+A getter that returns 1 if the operation is FIPS approved, or 0 otherwise.
+This may be used after calling either \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate()\fR or
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate()\fR. It may return 0 if the "key\-check" is set to 0.
+.IP """key\-check"" (\fBOSSL_KEM_PARAM_FIPS_KEY_CHECK\fR) <integer>" 4
+.IX Item """key-check"" (OSSL_KEM_PARAM_FIPS_KEY_CHECK) <integer>"
+If required this parameter should be set using \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_encapsulate_init()\fR
+or \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_decapsulate_init()\fR.
+The default value of 1 causes an error during the init if the key is not FIPS
+approved (e.g. The key has a security strength of less than 112 bits). Setting
+this to 0 will ignore the error and set the approved "fips\-indicator" to 0.
+This option breaks FIPS compliance if it causes the approved "fips\-indicator"
+to return 0.
+.SS "Asymmetric Key Encapsulation Parameter Functions"
+.IX Subsection "Asymmetric Key Encapsulation Parameter Functions"
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params()\fR gets asymmetric KEM parameters associated
+with the given provider side asymmetric kem context \fIctx\fR and stores them in
+\&\fIparams\fR.
+Passing NULL for \fIparams\fR should return true.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params()\fR sets the asymmetric KEM parameters associated
+with the given provider side asymmetric kem context \fIctx\fR to \fIparams\fR.
+Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set.
+Passing NULL for \fIparams\fR should return true.
+.PP
+No parameters are currently recognised by built\-in asymmetric kem algorithms.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_gettable_ctx_params()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_settable_ctx_params()\fR
+get a constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array that describes the gettable and settable
+parameters, i.e. parameters that can be used with \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_get_ctx_params()\fR
+and \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_set_ctx_params()\fR respectively.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_newctx()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_kem_dupctx()\fR should return the newly
+created provider side asymmetric kem context, or NULL on failure.
+.PP
+All other functions should return 1 for success or 0 on error.
