| -Configuration modules. These are a set of modules which can perform
|
| -various configuration functions.
|
| -
|
| -Currently the routines should be called at most once when an application
|
| -starts up: that is before it starts any threads.
|
| -
|
| -The routines read a configuration file set up like this:
|
| -
|
| ------
|
| -#default section
|
| -openssl_conf=init_section
|
| -
|
| -[init_section]
|
| -
|
| -module1=value1
|
| -#Second instance of module1
|
| -module1.1=valueX
|
| -module2=value2
|
| -module3=dso_literal
|
| -module4=dso_section
|
| -
|
| -[dso_section]
|
| -
|
| -path=/some/path/to/some/dso.so
|
| -other_stuff=other_value

|
| -When this file is loaded a configuration module with the specified string
|
| -(module* in the above example) is looked up and its init function called as:
|
| -
|
| -int conf_init_func(CONF_IMODULE *md, CONF *cnf);
|
| -
|
| -The function can then take whatever action is appropriate, for example further
|
| -lookups based on the value. Multiple instances of the same config module can be
|
| -loaded.
|
| -
|
| -When the application closes down the modules are cleaned up by calling an
|
| -optional finish function:
|
| -
|
| -void conf_finish_func(CONF_IMODULE *md);
|
| -
|
| -The finish functions are called in reverse order: that is the last module
|
| -loaded is the first one cleaned up.
|
| -
|
| -If no module exists with a given name then an attempt is made to load a DSO
|
| -with the supplied name. This might mean that "module3" attempts to load a DSO
|
| -called libmodule3.so or module3.dll for example. An explicit DSO name can be
|
| -given by including a separate section as in the module4 example above.
|
| -
|
| -The DSO is expected to at least contain an initialization function:
|
| -
|
| -int OPENSSL_init(CONF_IMODULE *md, CONF *cnf);
|
| -
|
| -and may also include a finish function:
|
| -
|
| -void OPENSSL_finish(CONF_IMODULE *md);
|
| -
|
| -Static modules can also be added using,
|
| -
|
| -int CONF_module_add(char *name, dso_mod_init_func *ifunc, dso_mod_finish_func
|
| -*ffunc);
|
| -
|
| -where "name" is the name in the configuration file this function corresponds
|
| -to.
|
| -
|
| -A set of builtin modules (currently only an ASN1 non functional test module)
|
| -can be added by calling OPENSSL_load_builtin_modules().
|
| -
|
| -The function OPENSSL_config() is intended as a simple configuration function
|
| -that any application can call to perform various default configuration tasks.
|
| -It uses the file openssl.cnf in the usual locations.
