+EVP_PKEY_new_raw_private_key_with_libctx() allocates a new B<EVP_PKEY>. Unless

+I<keytype> argument indicates what kind of key this is. The value should be a
+string for a public key algorithm that supports raw private keys, i.e one of
+"POLY1305", "SIPHASH", "X25519", "ED25519", "X448" or "ED448". Note that you may
+also use "HMAC" which is not a public key algorithm but is treated as such by
+some OpenSSL APIs. You are encouraged to use the EVP_MAC APIs instead for HMAC
