=head1 DESCRIPTION
SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb() sets the default password callback called
when loading/storing a PEM certificate with encryption.
-SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata() sets a pointer to B<userdata> which
-will be provided to the password callback on invocation.
+SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata() sets a pointer to userdata, B<u>,
+which will be provided to the password callback on invocation.
-The pem_passwd_cb(), which must be provided by the application, hands back the
-password to be used during decryption. On invocation a pointer to B<userdata>
-is provided. The pem_passwd_cb must write the password into the provided buffer
+SSL_CTX_get_default_passwd_cb() returns a function pointer to the password
+callback currently set in B<ctx>. If no callback was explicitly set, the
+NULL pointer is returned.
+
+SSL_CTX_get_default_passwd_cb_userdata() returns a pointer to the userdata
+currently set in B<ctx>. If no userdata was explicitly set, the NULL pointer
+is returned.
+
+SSL_set_default_passwd_cb(), SSL_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata(),
+SSL_get_default_passwd_cb() and SSL_get_default_passwd_cb_userdata() perform
+the same function as their SSL_CTX counterparts, but using an SSL object.
+
+The password callback, which must be provided by the application, hands back the
+password to be used during decryption.
+On invocation a pointer to userdata
+is provided. The function must store the password into the provided buffer
B<buf> which is of size B<size>. The actual length of the password must
be returned to the calling function. B<rwflag> indicates whether the
callback is used for reading/decryption (rwflag=0) or writing/encryption
(rwflag=1).
+For more details, see L<pem_password_cb(3)>.
=head1 NOTES
When loading or storing private keys, a password might be supplied to
protect the private key. The way this password can be supplied may depend
on the application. If only one private key is handled, it can be practical
