Richard Levitte 45ada6b92b Change all references to OpenSSL 3.1 to OpenSSL 3.2 in the master branch
3.1 has been decided to be a FIPS 140-3 release, springing from the branch
openssl-3.0, and the master branch to continue with the development of
OpenSSL 3.2.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
Create a type safe priority queue container. These macros define typesafe
inline functions that wrap internal routines. In the description here,
B<I<TYPE>> is used as a placeholder for any datatype.
The PRIORITY_QUEUE_OF() macro returns the name for a priority queue
of the specified B<I<TYPE>>. This is an opaque pointer to a structure
declaration.
DEFINE_PRIORITY_QUEUE_OF() creates a set of functions for a
priority queue of B<I<TYPE>> elements. The type is represented by
B<PRIORITY_QUEUE_OF>(B<I<TYPE>>) and each function name begins with
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_>.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_num>() returns the number of elements in I<pq>
or B<0> if I<pq> is NULL.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_new>() allocates a new priority queue using
comparison function I<compare>. It is an error for I<compare> to be NULL.
The I<compare> function is called to order two elements, it should return
B<-1> if the first element is less than the second, B<0> if they are
equal and B<1> otherwise.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_free>() frees up the I<pq> structure. It does I<not>
free up any elements of I<pq>. After this call I<pq> is no longer valid.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_pop_free>() frees up all elements of I<pq> and I<pq>
itself. The free function freefunc() is called on each element to free it.
After this call I<pq> is no longer valid.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_reserve>() allocates additional memory in the I<pq>
structure such that the next I<n> calls to B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_push>()
will not fail or cause memory to be allocated or reallocated. If I<n>
is zero, no additional space is reserved. On error I<pq> is unchanged.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_push>() inserts a new element with value I<data>
into the priority queue I<pq>. If not NULL, the function returns an index
in B<*elem> which can be used to identify the element when calling
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_remove>().
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_peek>() returns the data from the smallest element
in I<pq>.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_pop>() returns the data from the smallest element
in I<pq> and removes that element from the priority queue.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_remove>() returns and removes the specified element
I<elem> from I<pq>. The index I<elem> must have been obtained from
an earlier call made to B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_push>() with the same I<pq>
argument. The index I<elem> is invalidated by this function. It is undefined
what happens if an attempt to remove an element that isn't in the queue is
made.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_num>() returns the number of elements in the
priority queue or B<0> if the passed priority queue is NULL.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_new>() returns an empty priority queue or NULL if
an error occurs.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_free>() and B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_pop_free>()
do not return values.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_reserve>() returns B<1> on successful allocation
of the required memory or B<0> on error.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_push>() returns B<1> on success or B<0> on error.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_peek>() and B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_pop>() return
the data from the smallest element in the priority queue.
B<ossl_pqueue_I<TYPE>_remove>() returns the data from the specified
element.
