### Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ * Renamed EVP_PKEY_cmp() to EVP_PKEY_eq() and
+ EVP_PKEY_cmp_parameters() to EVP_PKEY_parameters_eq().
+ While the old function names have been retained for backward compatibility
+ they should not be used in new developments
+ because their return values are confusing: Unlike other `_cmp()` functions
+ they do not return 0 in case their arguments are equal.

* Deprecated EC_METHOD_get_field_type(). Applications should switch to
EC_GROUP_get_field_type().
