.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

"DESCRIPTION"
Header "DESCRIPTION" The logging and error reporting facility described here contains convenience functions for CMP-specific logging, including a string prefix mirroring the severity levels of syslog.h, and enhancements of the error queue mechanism needed for large diagnostic messages produced by the \s-1CMP\s0 library in case of certificate validation failures.

When an interesting activity is performed or an error occurs, some detail should be provided for user information, debugging, and auditing purposes. A \s-1CMP\s0 application can obtain this information by providing a callback function with the following type:

.Vb 3 typedef int (*OSSL_CMP_log_cb_t)(const char *component, const char *file, int line, OSSL_CMP_severity level, const char *msg); .Ve

The parameters may provide some component info (which may be a module name and/or function name) or \s-1NULL,\s0 a file pathname or \s-1NULL,\s0 a line number or 0 indicating the source code location, a severity level, and a message string describing the nature of the event, terminated by '\en'.

Even when an activity is successful some warnings may be useful and some degree of auditing may be required. Therefore, the logging facility supports a severity level and the callback function has a level parameter indicating such a level, such that error, warning, info, debug, etc. can be treated differently. The callback is activated only when the severity level is sufficient according to the current level of verbosity, which by default is \s-1OSSL_CMP_LOG_INFO\s0.

The callback function may itself do non-trivial tasks like writing to a log file or remote stream, which in turn may fail. Therefore, the function should return 1 on success and 0 on failure.

\fBOSSL_CMP_log_open() initializes the CMP-specific logging facility to output everything to \s-1STDOUT.\s0 It fails if the integrated tracing is disabled or \s-1STDIO\s0 is not available. It may be called during application startup. Alternatively, OSSL_CMP_CTX_set_log_cb\|(3) can be used for more flexibility. As long as neither if the two is used any logging output is ignored.

\fBOSSL_CMP_log_close() may be called when all activities are finished to flush any pending CMP-specific log output and deallocate related resources. It may be called multiple times. It does get called at OpenSSL shutdown.

\fBOSSL_CMP_print_to_bio() prints the given component info, filename, line number, severity level, and log message or error queue message to the given bio. \fIcomponent usually is a function or module name. If it is \s-1NULL,\s0 empty, or \*(L"(unknown function)\*(R" then \*(L"\s-1CMP\*(R"\s0 is used as fallback.

\fBOSSL_CMP_print_errors_cb() outputs any entries in the OpenSSL error queue. It is similar to ERR_print_errors_cb\|(3) but uses the \s-1CMP\s0 log callback function log_fn for uniformity with \s-1CMP\s0 logging if not \s-1NULL.\s0 Otherwise it prints to \s-1STDERR\s0 using OSSL_CMP_print_to_bio\|(3) (unless \s-1OPENSSL_NO_STDIO\s0 is defined).

"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBOSSL_CMP_log_close() and OSSL_CMP_print_errors_cb() do not return anything.

All other functions return 1 on success, 0 on error.
