const EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD *EVP_PKEY_get0_asn1(const EVP_PKEY *pkey);EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD is a structure which holds a set of ASN.1 conversion, printing and information methods for a specific public key algorithm.
There are two places where the EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD objects are stored: one is a built-in array representing the standard methods for different algorithms, and the other one is a stack of user-defined application-specific methods, which can be manipulated by using EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0(3).
The methods are the underlying implementations of a particular public key algorithm present by the EVP_PKEY object.

int (*param_print) (BIO *out, const EVP_PKEY *pkey, int indent,
ASN1_PCTX *pctx);The param_decode() and param_encode() methods are called to decode / encode DER formatted parameters to / from pk. They MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. They're called by PEM_read_bio_Parameters(3) and the file: OSSL_STORE_LOADER(3).
The param_missing() method returns 0 if a key parameter is missing, otherwise 1. It's called by EVP_PKEY_missing_parameters(3).
The param_copy() method copies key parameters from from to to. It MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. It's called by EVP_PKEY_copy_parameters(3).

int (*old_priv_encode) (const EVP_PKEY *pkey, unsigned char **pder);The old_priv_decode() and old_priv_encode() methods decode / encode they private key pkey from / to a DER formatted array. These are exclusively used to help decoding / encoding older (pre PKCS#8) PEM formatted encrypted private keys. old_priv_decode() MUST return 0 on error, 1 on success. old_priv_encode() MUST the return same kind of values as i2d_PrivateKey(). They're called by d2i_PrivateKey(3) and i2d_PrivateKey(3).
int (*item_verify) (EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, const ASN1_ITEM *it, void *asn,
X509_ALGOR *a, ASN1_BIT_STRING *sig, EVP_PKEY *pkey);
int (*item_sign) (EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, const ASN1_ITEM *it, void *asn,
X509_ALGOR *alg1, X509_ALGOR *alg2,
ASN1_BIT_STRING *sig);The item_sign() and item_verify() methods make it possible to have algorithm specific signatures and verification of them.
item_sign() MUST return one of:
error
item_sign() did everything, OpenSSL internals just needs to pass the signature length back.
item_sign() did nothing, OpenSSL internal standard routines are expected to continue with the default signature production.
item_sign() set the algorithm identifier algor1 and algor2, OpenSSL internals should just sign using those algorithms.
item_verify() MUST return one of:
error
item_sign() did everything, OpenSSL internals just needs to pass the signature length back.
item_sign() did nothing, OpenSSL internal standard routines are expected to continue with the default signature production.
item_verify() and item_sign() are called by ASN1_item_verify(3) and ASN1_item_sign(3), and by extension, X509_verify(3), X509_REQ_verify(3), X509_sign(3), X509_REQ_sign(3), ...
int (*siginf_set) (X509_SIG_INFO *siginf, const X509_ALGOR *alg,

int (*pkey_check) (const EVP_PKEY *pk);
int (*pkey_public_check) (const EVP_PKEY *pk);
int (*pkey_param_check) (const EVP_PKEY *pk);The pkey_check(), pkey_public_check() and pkey_param_check() methods are used to check the validity of pk for key-pair, public component and parameters, respectively. They MUST return 0 for an invalid key, or 1 for a valid key. They are called by EVP_PKEY_check(3), EVP_PKEY_public_check(3) and EVP_PKEY_param_check(3) respectively.
int (*set_priv_key) (EVP_PKEY *pk, const unsigned char *priv, size_t len);
int (*set_pub_key) (EVP_PKEY *pk, const unsigned char *pub, size_t len);The set_priv_key() and set_pub_key() methods are used to set the raw private and public key data for an EVP_PKEY.

The export_to() method exports the key material from the given key to a provider, through the EVP_KEYMGMT(3) interface, if that provider supports importing key material.
EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() creates and returns a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD object, and associates the given id, flags, pem_str and info. id is a NID, pem_str is the PEM type string, info is a descriptive string. The following flags are supported:
ASN1_PKEY_SIGPARAM_NULLIf ASN1_PKEY_SIGPARAM_NULL is set, then the signature algorithm parameters are given the type V_ASN1_NULL by default, otherwise they will be given the type V_ASN1_UNDEF (i.e. the parameter is omitted). See X509_ALGOR_set0(3) for more information.
EVP_PKEY_asn1_copy() copies an EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD object from src to dst. This function is not thread safe, it's recommended to only use this when initializing the application.
EVP_PKEY_asn1_free() frees an existing EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD pointed by ameth. If the argument is NULL, nothing is done.
EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0() adds ameth to the user defined stack of methods unless another EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD with the same NID is already there. This function is not thread safe, it's recommended to only use this when initializing the application.
EVP_PKEY_asn1_add_alias() creates an alias with the NID to for the EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD with NID from unless another EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD with the same NID is already added. This function is not thread safe, it's recommended to only use this when initializing the application.

EVP_PKEY_get0_asn1() finds the EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD associated with the key pkey.
EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() returns NULL on error, or a pointer to an EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD object otherwise.
EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0() and EVP_PKEY_asn1_add_alias() return 0 on error, or 1 on success.
EVP_PKEY_get0_asn1() returns NULL on error, or a pointer to a constant EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD object otherwise.
The signature of the pub_decode functional argument of EVP_PKEY_asn1_set_public() has changed in OpenSSL 3.0 so its pub parameter is now constified.
