The following function has been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
 | 
						|
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
 | 
						|
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int OSSL_STORE_ctrl(OSSL_STORE_CTX *ctx, int cmd, ... /* args */);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
These functions help the application to fetch supported objects (see
 | 
						|
L<OSSL_STORE_INFO(3)/SUPPORTED OBJECTS> for information on which those are)
 | 
						|
from a given URI.
 | 
						|
The general method to do so is to "open" the URI using OSSL_STORE_open(),
 | 
						|
read each available and supported object using OSSL_STORE_load() as long as
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_eof() hasn't been reached, and finish it off with OSSL_STORE_close().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The retrieved information is stored in a B<OSSL_STORE_INFO>, which is further
 | 
						|
described in L<OSSL_STORE_INFO(3)>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Types
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
B<OSSL_STORE_CTX> is a context variable that holds all the internal
 | 
						|
information for OSSL_STORE_open(), OSSL_STORE_open_ex(),
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_load(), OSSL_STORE_eof() and OSSL_STORE_close() to work
 | 
						|
together.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Functions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_open_ex() takes a uri or path I<uri>, password UI method
 | 
						|
I<ui_method> with associated data I<ui_data>, and post processing
 | 
						|
callback I<post_process> with associated data I<post_process_data>,
 | 
						|
a library context I<libctx> with an associated property query I<propq>,
 | 
						|
and opens a channel to the data located at the URI and returns a
 | 
						|
B<OSSL_STORE_CTX> with all necessary internal information.
 | 
						|
The given I<ui_method> and I<ui_data> will be reused by all
 | 
						|
functions that use B<OSSL_STORE_CTX> when interaction is needed,
 | 
						|
for instance to provide a password.
 | 
						|
The auxiliary L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> parameters in I<params> can be set to further
 | 
						|
modify the store operation.
 | 
						|
The given I<post_process> and I<post_process_data> will be reused by
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_load() to manipulate or drop the value to be returned.
 | 
						|
The I<post_process> function drops values by returning NULL, which
 | 
						|
will cause OSSL_STORE_load() to start its process over with loading
 | 
						|
the next object, until I<post_process> returns something other than
 | 
						|
NULL, or the end of data is reached as indicated by OSSL_STORE_eof().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_open() is similar to OSSL_STORE_open_ex() but uses NULL for
 | 
						|
the I<params>, the library context I<libctx> and property query I<propq>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_ctrl() takes a B<OSSL_STORE_CTX>, and command number I<cmd> and
 | 
						|
more arguments not specified here.
 | 
						|
The available loader specific command numbers and arguments they each
 | 
						|
take depends on the loader that's used and is documented together with
 | 
						|
that loader.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There are also global controls available:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=over 4
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_STORE_C_USE_SECMEM>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Controls if the loader should attempt to use secure memory for any
 | 
						|
allocated B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> and its contents.
 | 
						|
This control expects one argument, a pointer to an I<int> that is expected to
 | 
						|
have the value 1 (yes) or 0 (no).
 | 
						|
Any other value is an error.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=back
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_load() takes a B<OSSL_STORE_CTX> and tries to load the next
 | 
						|
available object and return it wrapped with B<OSSL_STORE_INFO>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_delete() deletes the object identified by I<uri>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_eof() takes a B<OSSL_STORE_CTX> and checks if we've reached the end
 | 
						|
of data.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_error() takes a B<OSSL_STORE_CTX> and checks if an error occurred in
 | 
						|
the last OSSL_STORE_load() call.
 | 
						|
Note that it may still be meaningful to try and load more objects, unless
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_eof() shows that the end of data has been reached.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_close() takes a B<OSSL_STORE_CTX>, closes the channel that was opened
 | 
						|
by OSSL_STORE_open() and frees all other information that was stored in the
 | 
						|
B<OSSL_STORE_CTX>, as well as the B<OSSL_STORE_CTX> itself.
 | 
						|
If I<ctx> is NULL it does nothing.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 NOTES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A string without a scheme prefix (that is, a non-URI string) is
 | 
						|
implicitly interpreted as using the F<file:> scheme.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There are some tools that can be used together with
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_open() to determine if any failure is caused by an unparsable
 | 
						|
URI, or if it's a different error (such as memory allocation
 | 
						|
failures); if the URI was parsable but the scheme unregistered, the
 | 
						|
top error will have the reason C<OSSL_STORE_R_UNREGISTERED_SCHEME>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
These functions make no direct assumption regarding the pass phrase received
 | 
						|
from the password callback.
 | 
						|
The loaders may make assumptions, however.
 | 
						|
For example, the B<file:> scheme loader inherits the assumptions made by
 | 
						|
OpenSSL functionality that handles the different file types; this is mostly
 | 
						|
relevant for PKCS#12 objects.
 | 
						|
See L<passphrase-encoding(7)> for further information.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_open() returns a pointer to a B<OSSL_STORE_CTX> on success, or
 | 
						|
NULL on failure.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_load() returns a pointer to a B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> on success, or NULL
 | 
						|
on error or when end of data is reached.
 | 
						|
Use OSSL_STORE_error() and OSSL_STORE_eof() to determine the meaning of a
 | 
						|
returned NULL.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_eof() returns 1 if the end of data has been reached
 | 
						|
or an error occurred, 0 otherwise.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_error() returns 1 if an error occurred in an OSSL_STORE_load() call,
 | 
						|
otherwise 0.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_STORE_delete(), OSSL_STORE_ctrl() and OSSL_STORE_close() return 1 on
 | 
						|
success, or 0 on failure.

 | 
						|
