-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. |
