Hi,
When the EC key is processed and the text portion is set to stdout, the
return value seems to show as a FAILURE though no errors occur.
# openssl ecparam -out eckey_secp128r1.pem -name secp128r1 -genkey
# openssl ec -in eckey_secp128r1.pem -text -noout
# echo $?
1
The reason was the return value, "ret" is not changed to SUCCESS and the
patch is given below.
