This configuration module supports a configuration structure pretty
much like the engine configuration module, i.e. something like this:
openssl_conf = openssl_init
[openssl_init]
providers = provider_section
[provider_section]
# Configure the provider named "foo"
foo = foo_section
# Configure the provider named "bar"
bar = bar_section
[foo_section]
# Override name given in the provider section
identity = myfoo
# The exact path of the module. This is platform specific
module_path = /opt/openssl/modules/foo.so
# Whether it should be automatically activated. Value is unimportant
activate = whatever
# Anything else goes as well, and becomes parameters that the
# provider can get
what = 1
# sub-sections will be followed as well
ever = ever_section
[ever_section]
cookie = monster
All the configurations in a provider section and its sub-sections
become parameters for the provider to get, i.e. the "foo" provider
will be able to get values for the following keys (with associated
values shown):
identity => myfoo
module_path => /opt/openssl/modules/foo.so
activate => whatever
what => 1
ever.cookie => monster

Adding new libraries
--------------------
When adding a new sub-library to OpenSSL, assign it a library number
ERR_LIB_XXX, define a macro XXXerr() (both in err.h), add its
name to ERR_str_libraries[] (in crypto/err/err.c), and add
ERR_load_XXX_strings() to the ERR_load_crypto_strings() function
(in crypto/err/err_all.c). Finally, add an entry:
L XXX xxx.h xxx_err.c
to crypto/err/openssl.ec, and add xxx_err.c to the Makefile.
Running make errors will then generate a file xxx_err.c, and
add all error codes used in the library to xxx.h.
Additionally the library include file must have a certain form.
Typically it will initially look like this:
#ifndef HEADER_XXX_H
#define HEADER_XXX_H
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
/* Include files */
#include <openssl/bio.h>
#include <openssl/x509.h>
/* Macros, structures and function prototypes */
/* BEGIN ERROR CODES */
The BEGIN ERROR CODES sequence is used by the error code
generation script as the point to place new error codes, any text
after this point will be overwritten when make errors is run.
The closing #endif etc will be automatically added by the script.
The generated C error code file xxx_err.c will load the header
files stdio.h, openssl/err.h and openssl/xxx.h so the
header file must load any additional header files containing any
definitions it uses.
