+\& #include <openssl/conf.h>
+\&
+\& char *CONF_get1_default_config_file(void);
+\& int CONF_modules_load_file_ex(OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, const char *filename,
+\& const char *appname, unsigned long flags);
+\& int CONF_modules_load_file(const char *filename, const char *appname,

+\& unsigned long flags);
+.Ve
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+The function \fBCONF_get1_default_config_file()\fR determines the default
+configuration file pathname as follows.
+If the \fBOPENSSL_CONF\fR environment variable is set its value is returned.
+Else the function returns the path obtained using
+\&\fBX509_get_default_cert_area\fR\|(3) with the filename \f(CW"openssl.cnf"\fR appended.
+The caller is responsible for freeing any string returned.
+.PP
+The function \fBCONF_modules_load_file_ex()\fR configures OpenSSL using
+library context \fBlibctx\fR file \fBfilename\fR and application name \fBappname\fR.
+If \fBfilename\fR is NULL the standard OpenSSL configuration file is used
+as determined by calling \fBCONF_get1_default_config_file()\fR.
+If \fBappname\fR is NULL the standard OpenSSL application name \fBopenssl_conf\fR is
+used.
+The behaviour can be customized using \fBflags\fR. Note that, the error suppressing
+can be overridden by \fBconfig_diagnostics\fR as described in \fBconfig\fR\|(5).
+.PP
+\&\fBCONF_modules_load_file()\fR is the same as \fBCONF_modules_load_file_ex()\fR but
+has a NULL library context.
+.PP
+\&\fBCONF_modules_load()\fR is identical to \fBCONF_modules_load_file()\fR except it
+reads configuration information from \fBcnf\fR.
+.SH NOTES
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+The following \fBflags\fR are currently recognized:
+.PP
+If \fBCONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_ERRORS\fR is set errors returned by individual
+configuration modules are ignored. If not set the first module error is
+considered fatal and no further modules are loaded.
+.PP
+Normally any modules errors will add error information to the error queue. If
+\&\fBCONF_MFLAGS_SILENT\fR is set no error information is added.
+.PP
+If \fBCONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_RETURN_CODES\fR is set the function unconditionally
+returns success.
+This is used by default in \fBOPENSSL_init_crypto\fR\|(3) to ignore any errors in
+the default system-wide configuration file, as having all OpenSSL applications
+fail to start when there are potentially minor issues in the file is too risky.
+Applications calling \fBCONF_modules_load_file_ex\fR explicitly should not
+generally set this flag.
+.PP
+If \fBCONF_MFLAGS_NO_DSO\fR is set configuration module loading from DSOs is
+disabled.
+.PP
+\&\fBCONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_MISSING_FILE\fR if set will make \fBCONF_load_modules_file()\fR
+ignore missing configuration files. Normally a missing configuration file
+return an error.
+.PP
+\&\fBCONF_MFLAGS_DEFAULT_SECTION\fR if set and \fBappname\fR is not NULL will use the
+default section pointed to by \fBopenssl_conf\fR if \fBappname\fR does not exist.
+.PP
+By using \fBCONF_modules_load_file_ex()\fR with appropriate flags an
+application can customise application configuration to best suit its needs.
+In some cases the use of a configuration file is optional and its absence is not
+an error: in this case \fBCONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_MISSING_FILE\fR would be set.
+.PP
+Errors during configuration may also be handled differently by different
+applications. For example in some cases an error may simply print out a warning
+message and the application continue. In other cases an application might
+consider a configuration file error as fatal and exit immediately.
+.PP
+Applications can use the \fBCONF_modules_load()\fR function if they wish to load a
+configuration file themselves and have finer control over how errors are
+treated.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+These functions return 1 for success and a zero or negative value for
+failure. If module errors are not ignored the return code will reflect the
+return value of the failing module (this will always be zero or negative).
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.IX Header "EXAMPLES"
+Load a configuration file and print out any errors and exit (missing file
+considered fatal):
+.PP
+.Vb 5
+\& if (CONF_modules_load_file_ex(libctx, NULL, NULL, 0) <= 0) {
+\& fprintf(stderr, "FATAL: error loading configuration file\en");
+\& ERR_print_errors_fp(stderr);
+\& exit(1);
+\& }
+.Ve
+.PP
+Load default configuration file using the section indicated by "myapp",
+tolerate missing files, but exit on other errors:
+.PP
+.Vb 6
+\& if (CONF_modules_load_file_ex(NULL, NULL, "myapp",
+\& CONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_MISSING_FILE) <= 0) {
+\& fprintf(stderr, "FATAL: error loading configuration file\en");
+\& ERR_print_errors_fp(stderr);
+\& exit(1);
+\& }
+.Ve
+.PP
+Load custom configuration file and section, only print warnings on error,
+missing configuration file ignored:
+.PP
+.Vb 5
+\& if (CONF_modules_load_file_ex(NULL, "/something/app.cnf", "myapp",
+\& CONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_MISSING_FILE) <= 0) {
+\& fprintf(stderr, "WARNING: error loading configuration file\en");
+\& ERR_print_errors_fp(stderr);
+\& }
+.Ve
+.PP
+Load and parse configuration file manually, custom error handling:
+.PP
+.Vb 3
+\& FILE *fp;
+\& CONF *cnf = NULL;
+\& long eline;
+\&
+\& fp = fopen("/somepath/app.cnf", "r");
+\& if (fp == NULL) {
+\& fprintf(stderr, "Error opening configuration file\en");
+\& /* Other missing configuration file behaviour */
+\& } else {
+\& cnf = NCONF_new_ex(libctx, NULL);
+\& if (NCONF_load_fp(cnf, fp, &eline) == 0) {
+\& fprintf(stderr, "Error on line %ld of configuration file\en", eline);
+\& ERR_print_errors_fp(stderr);
+\& /* Other malformed configuration file behaviour */
+\& } else if (CONF_modules_load(cnf, "appname", 0) <= 0) {
+\& fprintf(stderr, "Error configuring application\en");
+\& ERR_print_errors_fp(stderr);
+\& /* Other configuration error behaviour */
+\& }
+\& fclose(fp);
+\& NCONF_free(cnf);
+\& }
