+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER\fR is a type that holds internal information about
+implementation providers (see \fBprovider\fR\|(7) for information on what a
+provider is).
+A provider can be built in to the application or the OpenSSL
+libraries, or can be a loadable module.
+The functions described here handle both forms.
+.PP
+Some of these functions operate within a library context, please see
+\&\fBOSSL_LIB_CTX\fR\|(3) for further details.
+.SS Functions
+.IX Subsection "Functions"
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_set_default_search_path()\fR specifies the default search \fIpath\fR
+that is to be used for looking for providers in the specified \fIlibctx\fR.
+If left unspecified, an environment variable and a fall back default value will
+be used instead.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_add_builtin()\fR is used to add a built in provider to
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER\fR store in the given library context, by associating a
+provider name with a provider initialization function.
+This name can then be used with \fBOSSL_PROVIDER_load()\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_load()\fR loads and initializes a provider.
+This may simply initialize a provider that was previously added with
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_add_builtin()\fR and run its given initialization function,
+or load a provider module with the given name and run its provider
+entry point, \f(CW\*(C`OSSL_provider_init\*(C'\fR. The \fIname\fR can be a path
+to a provider module, in that case the provider name as returned
+by \fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get0_name()\fR will be the path. Interpretation
+of relative paths is platform dependent and they are relative
+to the configured "MODULESDIR" directory or the path set in
+the environment variable OPENSSL_MODULES if set.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_try_load()\fR functions like \fBOSSL_PROVIDER_load()\fR, except that
+it does not disable the fallback providers if the provider cannot be
+loaded and initialized or if \fIretain_fallbacks\fR is nonzero.
+If the provider loads successfully and \fIretain_fallbacks\fR is zero, the
+fallback providers are disabled.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_unload()\fR unloads the given provider.
+For a provider added with \fBOSSL_PROVIDER_add_builtin()\fR, this simply
+runs its teardown function.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_available()\fR checks if a named provider is available
+for use.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_do_all()\fR iterates over all loaded providers, calling
+\&\fIcb\fR for each one, with the current provider in \fIprovider\fR and the
+\&\fIcbdata\fR that comes from the caller. If no other provider has been loaded
+before calling this function, the default provider is still available as
+fallback.
+See \fBOSSL_PROVIDER\-default\fR\|(7) for more information on this fallback
+behaviour.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_gettable_params()\fR is used to get a provider parameter
+descriptor set as a constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get_params()\fR is used to get provider parameter values.
+The caller must prepare the \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array before calling this
+function, and the variables acting as buffers for this parameter array
+should be filled with data when it returns successfully.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_self_test()\fR is used to run a provider's self tests on demand.
+If the self tests fail then the provider will fail to provide any further
+services and algorithms. \fBOSSL_SELF_TEST_set_callback\fR\|(3) may be called
+beforehand in order to display diagnostics for the running self tests.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_query_operation()\fR calls the provider's \fIquery_operation\fR
+function (see \fBprovider\fR\|(7)), if the provider has one. It returns an
+array of \fIOSSL_ALGORITHM\fR for the given \fIoperation_id\fR terminated by an all
+NULL OSSL_ALGORITHM entry. This is considered a low-level function that most
+applications should not need to call.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_unquery_operation()\fR calls the provider's \fIunquery_operation\fR
+function (see \fBprovider\fR\|(7)), if the provider has one. This is considered a
+low-level function that most applications should not need to call.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get0_provider_ctx()\fR returns the provider context for the given
+provider. The provider context is an opaque handle set by the provider itself
+and is passed back to the provider by libcrypto in various function calls.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get0_dispatch()\fR returns the provider's dispatch table as it was
+returned in the \fIout\fR parameter from the provider's init function. See
+\&\fBprovider\-base\fR\|(7).
+.PP
+If it is permissible to cache references to this array then \fI*no_store\fR is set
+to 0 or 1 otherwise. If the array is not cacheable then it is assumed to
+have a short lifetime.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get0_name()\fR returns the name of the given provider.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get_capabilities()\fR provides information about the capabilities
+supported by the provider specified in \fIprov\fR with the capability name
+\&\fIcapability\fR. For each capability of that name supported by the provider it
+will call the callback \fIcb\fR and supply a set of \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3)s describing the
+capability. It will also pass back the argument \fIarg\fR. For more details about
+capabilities and what they can be used for please see
+"CAPABILTIIES" in \fBprovider\-base\fR\|(7).
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_set_default_search_path()\fR, \fBOSSL_PROVIDER_add()\fR,
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_unload()\fR, \fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get_params()\fR and
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get_capabilities()\fR return 1 on success, or 0 on error.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_load()\fR and \fBOSSL_PROVIDER_try_load()\fR return a pointer to a
+provider object on success, or NULL on error.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_do_all()\fR returns 1 if the callback \fIcb\fR returns 1 for every
+provider it is called with, or 0 if any provider callback invocation returns 0;
+callback processing stops at the first callback invocation on a provider
+that returns 0.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_available()\fR returns 1 if the named provider is available,
+otherwise 0.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_gettable_params()\fR returns a pointer to an array
+of constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3), or NULL if none is provided.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_get_params()\fR and returns 1 on success, or 0 on error.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_query_operation()\fR returns an array of OSSL_ALGORITHM or NULL on
+error.
+.PP
+\&\fBOSSL_PROVIDER_self_test()\fR returns 1 if the self tests pass, or 0 on error.
