.. 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" A collection of utility functions that simplify the creation of \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 arrays. The \f(BI\s-1TYPE\s0 names are as per OSSL_PARAM_int\|(3).

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_new() allocates and initialises a new \s-1OSSL_PARAM_BLD\s0 structure so that values can be added. Any existing values are cleared.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_free() deallocates the memory allocates by OSSL_PARAM_BLD_new().

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param() converts a built up \s-1OSSL_PARAM_BLD\s0 structure \fIbld into an allocated \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 array. The \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 array and all associated storage must be freed by calling \fBOSSL_PARAM_free() with the functions return value. \fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_free() can safely be called any time after this function is.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_\f(BI\s-1TYPE\s0() are a series of functions which will create \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 objects of the specified size and correct type for the val argument. \fIval is stored by value and an expression or auto variable can be used.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN() is a function that will create an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 object that holds the specified \s-1BIGNUM\s0 bn. If bn is marked as being securely allocated, its \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 representation will also be securely allocated. The bn argument is stored by reference and the underlying \s-1BIGNUM\s0 object must exist until after OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param() has been called.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN_pad() is a function that will create an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 object that holds the specified \s-1BIGNUM\s0 bn. The object will be padded to occupy exactly sz bytes, if insufficient space is specified an error results. If bn is marked as being securely allocated, its \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 representation will also be securely allocated. The bn argument is stored by reference and the underlying \s-1BIGNUM\s0 object must exist until after OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param() has been called.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_utf8_string() is a function that will create an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 object that references the \s-1UTF8\s0 string specified by buf. The length of the string bsize should not include the terminating \s-1NUL\s0 byte. If it is zero then it will be calculated. The string that buf points to is stored by reference and must remain in scope until after OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param() has been called.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_octet_string() is a function that will create an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 object that references the octet string specified by buf and <bsize>. The memory that buf points to is stored by reference and must remain in scope until after OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param() has been called.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_utf8_ptr() is a function that will create an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 object that references the \s-1UTF8\s0 string specified by buf. The length of the string bsize should not include the terminating \s-1NUL\s0 byte. If it is zero then it will be calculated. The string buf points to is stored by reference and must remain in scope until the \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 array is freed.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_octet_ptr() is a function that will create an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 object that references the octet string specified by buf. The memory buf points to is stored by reference and must remain in scope until the \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 array is freed.

"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_new() returns the allocated \s-1OSSL_PARAM_BLD\s0 structure, or \s-1NULL\s0 on error.

\fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param() returns the allocated \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 array, or \s-1NULL\s0 on error.

All of the OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_TYPE functions return 1 on success and 0 on error.

"NOTES"
Header "NOTES" \fBOSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN() and OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN_pad() currently only support nonnegative \s-1BIGNUM\s0s. They return an error on negative \s-1BIGNUM\s0s.
"EXAMPLES"
Header "EXAMPLES" Both examples creating an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 array that contains an \s-1RSA\s0 key. For both, the predefined key variables are:

.Vb 6 BIGNUM *n; /* modulus */ unsigned int e; /* public exponent */ BIGNUM *d; /* private exponent */ BIGNUM *p, *q; /* first two prime factors */ BIGNUM *dmp1, *dmq1; /* first two CRT exponents */ BIGNUM *iqmp; /* first CRT coefficient */ .Ve

"Example 1"
Subsection "Example 1" This example shows how to create an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 array that contains an \s-1RSA\s0 private key.

.Vb 2 OSSL_PARAM_BLD *bld = OSSL_PARAM_BLD_new(); OSSL_PARAM *params = NULL; \& if (bld == NULL || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN(bld, "n", n) || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_uint(bld, "e", e) || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN(bld, "d", d) || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN(bld, "rsa-factor1", p) || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN(bld, "rsa-factor2", q) || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN(bld, "rsa-exponent1", dmp1) || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN(bld, "rsa-exponent2", dmq1) || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN(bld, "rsa-coefficient1", iqmp) || (params = OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param(bld)) == NULL) goto err; OSSL_PARAM_BLD_free(bld); /* Use params */ ... OSSL_PARAM_free(params); .Ve

"Example 2"
Subsection "Example 2" This example shows how to create an \s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0 array that contains an \s-1RSA\s0 public key.

.Vb 2 OSSL_PARAM_BLD *bld = OSSL_PARAM_BLD_new(); OSSL_PARAM *params = NULL; \& if (nld == NULL || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN(bld, "n", n) || !OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_uint(bld, "e", e) || (params = OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param(bld)) == NULL) goto err; OSSL_PARAM_BLD_free(bld); /* Use params */ ...
