OSSL_PARAM_TYPE() are a series of macros designed to assist initialising an
array of OSSL_PARAM structures.
Each of these macros defines a parameter of the specified B<TYPE> with the
provided B<key> and parameter variable B<address>.

OSSL_PARAM_utf8_string(), OSSL_PARAM_octet_string(), OSSL_PARAM_utf8_ptr(),
OSSL_PARAM_octet_ptr(), OSSL_PARAM_BN() are macros that provide support
for defining UTF8 strings, OCTET strings and big numbers.
A parameter with name B<key> is defined.
The storage for this parameter is at B<address> and is of B<size> bytes.

OSSL_PARAM_END provides an end of parameter list marker.
This should terminate all OSSL_PARAM arrays.

OSSL_PARAM_construct_TYPE() are a series of functions that create OSSL_PARAM
records dynamically.
A parameter with name B<key> is created.
The parameter will use storage pointed to by B<buf> and return size of B<ret>.

OSSL_PARAM_construct_BN() is a function that constructs a large integer
OSSL_PARAM structure.
A parameter with name B<key>, storage B<buf>, size B<bsize> and return
size B<rsize> is created.

OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_string() is a function that constructs a UTF8
string OSSL_PARAM structure.
A parameter with name B<key>, storage B<buf> and size B<bsize> is created.
If B<bsize> is zero, the string length is determined using strlen(3).

OSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_string() is a function that constructs an OCTET
string OSSL_PARAM structure.
A parameter with name B<key>, storage B<buf> and size B<bsize> is created.

OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_ptr() is a function that constructes a UTF string
pointer OSSL_PARAM structure.
A parameter with name B<key>, storage pointer B<*buf> and size B<bsize>
is created.

OSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_ptr() is a function that constructes an OCTET string
pointer OSSL_PARAM structure.
A parameter with name B<key>, storage pointer B<*buf> and size B<bsize>
is created.

OSSL_PARAM_construct_end() is a function that constructs the terminating
OSSL_PARAM structure.

OSSL_PARAM_locate() is a function that searches an B<array> of parameters for
the one matching the B<key> name.

OSSL_PARAM_locate_const() behaves exactly like OSSL_PARAM_locate() except for
the presence of I<const> for the B<array> argument and its return value.

OSSL_PARAM_get_TYPE() retrieves a value of type B<TYPE> from the parameter B<p>.
The value is copied to the address B<val>.
Type coercion takes place as discussed in the NOTES section.

OSSL_PARAM_set_TYPE() stores a value B<val> of type B<TYPE> into the parameter
B<p>.
Type coercion takes place as discussed in the NOTES section.

OSSL_PARAM_get_BN() retrieves a BIGNUM from the parameter pointed to by B<p>.
The BIGNUM referenced by B<val> is updated and is allocated if B<*val> is
B<NULL>.

OSSL_PARAM_set_BN() stores the BIGNUM B<val> into the parameter B<p>.

OSSL_PARAM_get_utf8_string() retrieves a UTF8 string from the parameter
pointed to by B<p>.
The string is either stored into B<*val> with a length limit of B<max_len> or,
in the case when B<*val> is B<NULL>, memory is allocated for the string and
B<max_len> is ignored.
If memory is allocated by this function, it must be freed by the caller.

OSSL_PARAM_set_utf8_string() sets a UTF8 string from the parameter pointed to
by B<p> to the value referenced by B<val>.

OSSL_PARAM_get_octet_string() retrieves an OCTET string from the parameter
pointed to by B<p>.
The OCTETs are either stored into B<*val> with a length limit of B<max_len> or,
in the case when B<*val> is B<NULL>, memory is allocated and
B<max_len> is ignored.
If memory is allocated by this function, it must be freed by the caller.

OSSL_PARAM_set_octet_string() sets an OCTET string from the parameter
pointed to by B<p> to the value referenced by B<val>.

OSSL_PARAM_get_utf8_ptr() retrieves the UTF8 string pointer from the parameter
referenced by B<p> and stores it in B<*val>.

OSSL_PARAM_set_utf8_ptr() sets the UTF8 string pointer in the parameter
referenced by B<p> to the values B<val>.

OSSL_PARAM_get_octet_ptr() retrieves the OCTET string pointer from the parameter
referenced by B<p> and stores it in B<*val>.
The length of the OCTET string is stored in B<*used_len>.

OSSL_PARAM_set_octet_ptr() sets the OCTET string pointer in the parameter
referenced by B<p> to the values B<val>.
The length of the OCTET string is provided by B<used_len>.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

OSSL_PARAM_construct_TYPE(), OSSL_PARAM_construct_BN(),
OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_string(), OSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_string(),
OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_ptr() and OSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_ptr()
return a populated OSSL_PARAM structure.

OSSL_PARAM_locate() and OSSL_PARAM_locate_const() return a pointer to
the matching OSSL_PARAM object.  They return B<NULL> on error or when
no object matching B<key> exists in the B<array>.

All other functions return B<1> on success and B<0> on failure.

=head1 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.

For OSSL_PARAM_get_utf8_ptr() and OSSL_PARAM_get_octet_ptr(), B<bsize>
is not relevant if the purpose is to send the B<OSSL_PARAM> array to a
I<responder>, i.e. to get parameter data back.
In that case, B<bsize> can safely be given zero.
See L<OSSL_PARAM(3)/DESCRIPTION> for further information on the
possible purposes.

=head1 EXAMPLES

Reusing the examples from L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> to just show how
C<OSSL_PARAM> arrays can be handled using the macros and functions
defined herein.

=head2 Example 1

This example is for setting parameters on some object:

    #include <openssl/core.h>

    const char *foo = "some string";
    size_t foo_l = strlen(foo) + 1;
    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)),
        OSSL_PARAM_END
    };

=head2 Example 2

This example is for requesting parameters on some object, and also
demonstrates that the requestor isn't obligated to request all
available parameters:

    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
    };

A I<responder> that receives this array (as C<params> in this example)
could fill in the parameters like this:

    /* 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_ptr(p, "bar value");
    if ((p = OSSL_PARAM_locate(params, "cookie")) == NULL)
        OSSL_PARAM_set_utf8_ptr(p, "cookie value");
