54 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | ||
55 | .Fn ENGINE_new | ||
56 | allocates and initializes an empty | ||
57 | .Vt ENGINE | ||
58 | object and sets its structural reference count to 1 | ||
59 | and its functional reference count to 0. | ||
60 | For more information about the functional reference count, see the | ||
61 | .Xr ENGINE_init 3 | ||
62 | manual page. | ||
63 | .Pp | ||
64 | Many functions increment the structural reference count by 1 | ||
65 | when successful. | ||
66 | Some of them, including | ||
67 | .Xr ENGINE_get_first 3 , | ||
68 | .Xr ENGINE_get_last 3 , | ||
69 | .Xr ENGINE_get_next 3 , | ||
70 | .Xr ENGINE_get_prev 3 , | ||
71 | and | ||
72 | .Xr ENGINE_by_id 3 , | ||
73 | do so because they return a structural reference to the user. | ||
74 | Other functions, including | ||
75 | .Xr ENGINE_add 3 , | ||
76 | .Xr ENGINE_init 3 , | ||
77 | .Xr ENGINE_get_cipher_engine 3 , | ||
78 | .Xr ENGINE_get_digest_engine 3 , | ||
79 | and the | ||
80 | .Xr ENGINE_get_default_RSA 3 | ||
81 | and | ||
82 | .Xr ENGINE_set_default 3 | ||
83 | families of functions | ||
84 | do so when they store a structural refence internally. | ||
85 | .Pp | ||
86 | .Fn ENGINE_up_ref | ||
87 | explicitly increment the structural reference count by 1. | ||
88 | .Pp | ||
89 | .Fn ENGINE_free | ||
90 | decrements the structural reference count by 1, | ||
91 | and if it reaches 0, the optional | ||
92 | .Fa destroy_f | ||
93 | previously installed with | ||
94 | .Fn ENGINE_set_destroy_function | ||
95 | is called, if one is installed, and both the memory used internally by | ||
96 | .Fa e | ||
97 | and | ||
98 | .Fa e | ||
99 | itself are freed. | ||
100 | If | ||
101 | .Fa e | ||
102 | is a | ||
103 | .Dv NULL | ||
104 | pointer, no action occurs. | ||
105 | .Pp | ||
106 | Many functions internally call the equivalent of | ||
107 | .Fn ENGINE_free . | ||
108 | Some of them, including | ||
109 | .Xr ENGINE_get_next 3 | ||
110 | and | ||
111 | .Xr ENGINE_get_prev 3 , | ||
112 | thus invalidate the structural reference passed in by the user. | ||
113 | Other functions, including | ||
114 | .Xr ENGINE_finish 3 , | ||
115 | .Xr ENGINE_remove 3 , | ||
116 | and the | ||
117 | .Xr ENGINE_set_default 3 | ||
118 | family of functions | ||
119 | do so when an internally stored structural reference is no longer needed. | ||
120 | .Pp | ||
121 | .Fn ENGINE_set_destroy_function | ||
122 | installs a callback function that will be called by | ||
123 | .Fn ENGINE_free , | ||
124 | but only when | ||
125 | .Fa e | ||
126 | actually gets destroyed, | ||
127 | not when only its reference count gets decremented. | ||
128 | The value returned from the | ||
129 | .Fa destroy_f | ||
130 | will be ignored. | ||
131 | .Sh RETURN VALUES | ||
132 | .Fn ENGINE_new | ||
133 | returns a structural reference to the new | ||
134 | .Vt ENGINE | ||
135 | object or | ||
136 | .Dv NULL | ||
137 | if an error occurs. | ||
138 | .Pp | ||
139 | .Fn ENGINE_up_ref | ||
140 | returns 0 if | ||
141 | .Fa e | ||
142 | is | ||
143 | .Dv NULL | ||
144 | and 1 otherwise. | ||
145 | .Pp | ||
146 | .Fn ENGINE_free | ||
147 | and | ||
148 | .Fn ENGINE_set_destroy_function | ||
149 | always return 1. | ||
150 | .Pp | ||
151 | .Fn ENGINE_get_destroy_function | ||
152 | returns a function pointer to the callback, or | ||
153 | .Dv NULL | ||
154 | if none is installed. | ||
