.PP
\&\s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM_TYPE\s0()\fR are a series of macros designed to assist initialising an
array of \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structures.
Each of these macros defines a parameter of the specified \fB\f(BI\s-1TYPE\s0\fB\fR with the
provided \fIkey\fR and parameter variable \fIaddress\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_utf8_string()\fR, \fBOSSL_PARAM_octet_string()\fR, \fBOSSL_PARAM_utf8_ptr()\fR,
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_octet_ptr()\fR, \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM_BN\s0()\fR are macros that provide support
for defining \s-1UTF8\s0 strings, \s-1OCTET\s0 strings and big numbers.
A parameter with name \fIkey\fR is defined.
The storage for this parameter is at \fIaddress\fR and is of \fIsize\fR bytes.
.PP
\&\s-1OSSL_PARAM_END\s0 provides an end of parameter list marker.
This should terminate all \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) arrays.
.PP
The \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM_DEFN\s0()\fR macro provides the ability to construct a single
\&\s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) (typically used in the construction of \fB\s-1OSSL_PARAM\s0\fR arrays). The
\&\fIkey\fR, \fItype\fR, \fIaddr\fR and \fIsz\fR arguments correspond to the \fIkey\fR,
\&\fIdata_type\fR, \fIdata\fR and \fIdata_size\fR fields of the \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structure as
described on the \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) page.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_TYPE()\fR are a series of functions that create \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3)
records dynamically.
A parameter with name \fIkey\fR is created.
The parameter will use storage pointed to by \fIbuf\fR and return size of \fIret\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_BN()\fR is a function that constructs a large integer
\&\s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structure.
A parameter with name \fIkey\fR, storage \fIbuf\fR, size \fIbsize\fR and return
size \fIrsize\fR is created.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_string()\fR is a function that constructs a \s-1UTF8\s0
string \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structure.
A parameter with name \fIkey\fR, storage \fIbuf\fR and size \fIbsize\fR is created.
If \fIbsize\fR is zero, the string length is determined using \fBstrlen\fR\|(3).
Generally pass zero for \fIbsize\fR instead of calling \fBstrlen\fR\|(3) yourself.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_string()\fR is a function that constructs an \s-1OCTET\s0
string \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structure.
A parameter with name \fIkey\fR, storage \fIbuf\fR and size \fIbsize\fR is created.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_ptr()\fR is a function that constructs a \s-1UTF8\s0 string
pointer \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structure.
A parameter with name \fIkey\fR, storage pointer \fI*buf\fR and size \fIbsize\fR
is created.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_ptr()\fR is a function that constructs an \s-1OCTET\s0 string
pointer \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structure.
A parameter with name \fIkey\fR, storage pointer \fI*buf\fR and size \fIbsize\fR
is created.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_end()\fR is a function that constructs the terminating
\&\s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structure.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_locate()\fR is a function that searches an \fIarray\fR of parameters for
the one matching the \fIkey\fR name.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_locate_const()\fR behaves exactly like \fBOSSL_PARAM_locate()\fR except for
the presence of \fIconst\fR for the \fIarray\fR argument and its return value.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_TYPE()\fR retrieves a value of type \fB\f(BI\s-1TYPE\s0\fB\fR from the parameter
\&\fIp\fR.
The value is copied to the address \fIval\fR.
Type coercion takes place as discussed in the \s-1NOTES\s0 section.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_set_TYPE()\fR stores a value \fIval\fR of type \fB\f(BI\s-1TYPE\s0\fB\fR into the
parameter \fIp\fR.
If the parameter's \fIdata\fR field is \s-1NULL,\s0 then only its \fIreturn_size\fR field
will be assigned the size the parameter's \fIdata\fR buffer should have.
Type coercion takes place as discussed in the \s-1NOTES\s0 section.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_BN()\fR retrieves a \s-1BIGNUM\s0 from the parameter pointed to by \fIp\fR.
The \s-1BIGNUM\s0 referenced by \fIval\fR is updated and is allocated if \fI*val\fR is
\&\s-1NULL.\s0
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_set_BN()\fR stores the \s-1BIGNUM\s0 \fIval\fR into the parameter \fIp\fR.
If the parameter's \fIdata\fR field is \s-1NULL,\s0 then only its \fIreturn_size\fR field
will be assigned the size the parameter's \fIdata\fR buffer should have.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_utf8_string()\fR retrieves a \s-1UTF8\s0 string from the parameter
pointed to by \fIp\fR.
The string is stored into \fI*val\fR with a size limit of \fImax_len\fR,
which must be large enough to accommodate a terminating \s-1NUL\s0 byte,
otherwise this function will fail.
If \fI*val\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 memory is allocated for the string (including the
terminating  \s-1NUL\s0 byte) and \fImax_len\fR is ignored.
If memory is allocated by this function, it must be freed by the caller.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_set_utf8_string()\fR sets a \s-1UTF8\s0 string from the parameter pointed to
by \fIp\fR to the value referenced by \fIval\fR.
If the parameter's \fIdata\fR field isn't \s-1NULL,\s0 its \fIdata_size\fR must indicate
that the buffer is large enough to accommodate the string that \fIval\fR points at,
not including the terminating \s-1NUL\s0 byte, or this function will fail.
A terminating \s-1NUL\s0 byte is added only if the parameter's \fIdata_size\fR indicates
the buffer is longer than the string length, otherwise the string will not be
\&\s-1NUL\s0 terminated.
If the parameter's \fIdata\fR field is \s-1NULL,\s0 then only its \fIreturn_size\fR field
will be assigned the minimum size the parameter's \fIdata\fR buffer should have
to accommodate the string, not including a terminating \s-1NUL\s0 byte.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_octet_string()\fR retrieves an \s-1OCTET\s0 string from the parameter
pointed to by \fIp\fR.
The OCTETs are either stored into \fI*val\fR with a length limit of \fImax_len\fR or,
in the case when \fI*val\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 memory is allocated and
\&\fImax_len\fR is ignored. \fI*used_len\fR is populated with the number of OCTETs
stored. If \fIval\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 then the \s-1OCTETS\s0 are not stored, but \fI*used_len\fR is
still populated.
If memory is allocated by this function, it must be freed by the caller.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_set_octet_string()\fR sets an \s-1OCTET\s0 string from the parameter
pointed to by \fIp\fR to the value referenced by \fIval\fR.
If the parameter's \fIdata\fR field is \s-1NULL,\s0 then only its \fIreturn_size\fR field
will be assigned the size the parameter's \fIdata\fR buffer should have.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_utf8_ptr()\fR retrieves the \s-1UTF8\s0 string pointer from the parameter
referenced by \fIp\fR and stores it in \fI*val\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_set_utf8_ptr()\fR sets the \s-1UTF8\s0 string pointer in the parameter
referenced by \fIp\fR to the values \fIval\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_octet_ptr()\fR retrieves the \s-1OCTET\s0 string pointer from the parameter
referenced by \fIp\fR and stores it in \fI*val\fR.
The length of the \s-1OCTET\s0 string is stored in \fI*used_len\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_set_octet_ptr()\fR sets the \s-1OCTET\s0 string pointer in the parameter
referenced by \fIp\fR to the values \fIval\fR.
The length of the \s-1OCTET\s0 string is provided by \fIused_len\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_utf8_string_ptr()\fR retrieves the pointer to a \s-1UTF8\s0 string from
the parameter pointed to by \fIp\fR, and stores that pointer in \fI*val\fR.
This is different from \fBOSSL_PARAM_get_utf8_string()\fR, which copies the
string.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_octet_string_ptr()\fR retrieves the pointer to a octet string
from the parameter pointed to by \fIp\fR, and stores that pointer in \fI*val\fR,
along with the string's length in \fI*used_len\fR.
This is different from \fBOSSL_PARAM_get_octet_string()\fR, which copies the
string.
.PP
The \s-1OSSL_PARAM_UNMODIFIED\s0 macro is used to detect if a parameter was set.  On
creation, via either the macros or construct calls, the \fIreturn_size\fR field
is set to this.  If the parameter is set using the calls defined herein, the
\&\fIreturn_size\fR field is changed.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_modified()\fR queries if the parameter \fIparam\fR has been set or not
using the calls defined herein.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_set_all_unmodified()\fR resets the unused indicator for all parameters
in the array \fIparams\fR.

\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_locate()\fR and \fBOSSL_PARAM_locate_const()\fR return a pointer to
the matching \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) object.  They return \s-1NULL\s0 on error or when
no object matching \fIkey\fR exists in the \fIarray\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_modified()\fR returns 1 if the parameter was set and 0 otherwise.
.PP
All other functions return 1 on success and 0 on failure.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
Native types will be converted as required only if the value is exactly
representable by the target type or parameter.
Apart from that, the functions must be used appropriately for the
expected type of the parameter.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_get_BN()\fR and \fBOSSL_PARAM_set_BN()\fR only support nonnegative
\&\fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fRs when the desired data type is \fB\s-1OSSL_PARAM_UNSIGNED_INTEGER\s0\fR.
\&\fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_BN()\fR currently constructs an \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) structure
with the data type \fB\s-1OSSL_PARAM_UNSIGNED_INTEGER\s0\fR.
.PP
For \fBOSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_ptr()\fR and \fBOSSL_PARAM_consstruct_octet_ptr()\fR,
\&\fIbsize\fR is not relevant if the purpose is to send the \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) array
to a \fIresponder\fR, i.e. to get parameter data back.
In that case, \fIbsize\fR can safely be given zero.
See \*(L"\s-1DESCRIPTION\*(R"\s0 in \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) for further information on the
possible purposes.

.IX Header "EXAMPLES"
Reusing the examples from \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) to just show how
\&\s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) arrays can be handled using the macros and functions
defined herein.
.SS "Example 1"
.IX Subsection "Example 1"
This example is for setting parameters on some object:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    #include <openssl/core.h>
\&
\&    const char *foo = "some string";
\&    size_t foo_l = strlen(foo);
\&    const char bar[] = "some other string";
\&    const OSSL_PARAM set[] = {
\&        OSSL_PARAM_utf8_ptr("foo", &foo, foo_l),
\&        OSSL_PARAM_utf8_string("bar", bar, sizeof(bar) \- 1),
\&        OSSL_PARAM_END
\&    };
.Ve
.SS "Example 2"
.IX Subsection "Example 2"
This example is for requesting parameters on some object, and also
demonstrates that the requester isn't obligated to request all
available parameters:
.PP
.Vb 7
\&    const char *foo = NULL;
\&    char bar[1024];
\&    OSSL_PARAM request[] = {
\&        OSSL_PARAM_utf8_ptr("foo", &foo, 0),
\&        OSSL_PARAM_utf8_string("bar", bar, sizeof(bar)),
\&        OSSL_PARAM_END
\&    };
.Ve
.PP
A \fIresponder\fR that receives this array (as \f(CW\*(C`params\*(C'\fR in this example)
could fill in the parameters like this:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    /* OSSL_PARAM *params */
\&
\&    OSSL_PARAM *p;
\&
\&    if ((p = OSSL_PARAM_locate(params, "foo")) != NULL)
\&        OSSL_PARAM_set_utf8_ptr(p, "foo value");
\&    if ((p = OSSL_PARAM_locate(params, "bar")) != NULL)
\&        OSSL_PARAM_set_utf8_string(p, "bar value");
\&    if ((p = OSSL_PARAM_locate(params, "cookie")) != NULL)
\&        OSSL_PARAM_set_utf8_ptr(p, "cookie value");
