=head1 NAME

EVP_PKEY_get_group_name - get group name of a key

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/evp.h>

 int EVP_PKEY_get_group_name(EVP_PKEY *pkey, char *gname, size_t gname_sz,
                             size_t *gname_len);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

EVP_PKEY_get_group_name() fills in the group name of the I<pkey> into
I<gname>, up to at most I<gname_sz> bytes including the ending NUL byte
and assigns I<*gname_len> the actual size of the name, if I<pkey>'s key type
supports it.
I<gname> as well as I<gname_len> may individually be NULL, and won't be
filled in or assigned in that case.

=head1 NOTES

Among the standard OpenSSL key types, this is only supported for DH, EC and
SM2 keys.  Other providers may support this for additional key types.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

EVP_PKEY_get_group_name() returns 1 if the group name could be filled in,
otherwise 0.

=head1 HISTORY

This function was added in OpenSSL 3.0.
