* Added a new concept for OpenSSL plugability: providers. This
|
||||||
|
functionality is designed to replace the ENGINE API and ENGINE
|
||||||
|
implementations, and to be much more dynamic, allowing provider
|
||||||
|
authors to introduce new algorithms among other things, as long as
|
||||||
|
there's an API that supports the algorithm type.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With this concept comes a new core API for interaction between
|
||||||
|
libcrypto and provider implementations. Public libcrypto functions
|
||||||
|
that want to use providers do so through this core API.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The main documentation for this core API is found in
|
||||||
|
doc/man7/provider.pod, doc/man7/provider-base.pod, and they in turn
|
||||||
|
refer to other manuals describing the API specific for supported
|
||||||
|
algorithm types (also called operations).
