Additionally some resources are allocated on a per thread basis (if the application is multi-threaded), and these resources must be freed prior to the thread closing.</p> <p>As of version 1.1.0 OpenSSL will automatically allocate all resources that it needs so no explicit initialisation is required. Similarly it will also automatically deinitialise as required.</p> <p>However, there may be situations when explicit initialisation is desirable or needed, for example when some nondefault initialisation is required. The function OPENSSL_init_crypto() can be used for this purpose for libcrypto (see also <a href="../man3/OPENSSL_init_ssl.html">OPENSSL_init_ssl(3)</a> for the libssl equivalent).</p> <p>Numerous internal OpenSSL functions call OPENSSL_init_crypto(). Therefore, in order to perform nondefault initialisation, OPENSSL_init_crypto() MUST be called by application code prior to any other OpenSSL function calls.</p> <p>The <b>opts</b> parameter specifies which aspects of libcrypto should be initialised.

Using this option suppresses that behaviour. This means that the application will have to clean up OpenSSL explicitly using OPENSSL_cleanup().</p> </dd> </dl> <p>Multiple options may be combined together in a single call to OPENSSL_init_crypto(). For example:</p> <pre><code> OPENSSL_init_crypto(OPENSSL_INIT_NO_ADD_ALL_CIPHERS | OPENSSL_INIT_NO_ADD_ALL_DIGESTS, NULL);</code></pre> <p>The OPENSSL_cleanup() function deinitialises OpenSSL (both libcrypto and libssl). All resources allocated by OpenSSL are freed. Typically there should be no need to call this function directly as it is initiated automatically on application exit. This is done via the standard C library atexit() function. In the event that the application will close in a manner that will not call the registered atexit() handlers then the application should call OPENSSL_cleanup() directly. Developers of libraries using OpenSSL are discouraged from calling this function and should instead, typically, rely on auto-deinitialisation. This is to avoid error conditions where both an application and a library it depends on both use OpenSSL, and the library deinitialises it before the application has finished using it.</p> <p>Once OPENSSL_cleanup() has been called the library cannot be reinitialised. Attempts to call OPENSSL_init_crypto() will fail and an ERR_R_INIT_FAIL error will be added to the error stack. Note that because initialisation has failed OpenSSL error strings will not be available, only an error code. This code can be put through the openssl errstr command line application to produce a human readable error (see <a href="../man1/errstr.html">errstr(1)</a>).</p> <p>The OPENSSL_atexit() function enables the registration of a function to be called during OPENSSL_cleanup(). Stop handlers are called after deinitialisation of resources local to a thread, but before other process wide resources are freed. In the event that multiple stop handlers are registered, no guarantees are made about the order of execution.</p> <p>The OPENSSL_thread_stop() function deallocates resources associated with the current thread. Typically this function will be called automatically by the library when the thread exits. This should only be called directly if resources should be freed at an earlier time, or under the circumstances described in the NOTES section below.</p> <p>The <b>OPENSSL_INIT_LOAD_CONFIG</b> flag will load a configuration file, as with <a href="../man3/CONF_modules_load_file.html">CONF_modules_load_file(3)</a> with NULL filename and application name and the <b>CONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_MISSING_FILE</b>, <b>CONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_RETURN_CODES</b> and <b>CONF_MFLAGS_DEFAULT_SECTION</b> flags. The filename, application name, and flags can be customized by providing a non-null <b>OPENSSL_INIT_SETTINGS</b> object. The object can be allocated via <b>OPENSSL_init_new()</b>. The <b>OPENSSL_INIT_set_config_filename()</b> function can be used to specify a nondefault filename, which is copied and need not refer to persistent storage. Similarly, OPENSSL_INIT_set_config_appname() can be used to specify a nondefault application name. Finally, OPENSSL_INIT_set_file_flags can be used to specify nondefault flags. If the <b>CONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_RETURN_CODES</b> flag is not included, any errors in the configuration file will cause an error return from <b>OPENSSL_init_crypto</b> or indirectly <a href="../man3/OPENSSL_init_ssl.html">OPENSSL_init_ssl(3)</a>. The object can be released with OPENSSL_INIT_free() when done.</p> <h1 id="NOTES">NOTES</h1> <p>Resources local to a thread are deallocated automatically when the thread exits (e.g. in a pthreads environment, when pthread_exit() is called). On Windows platforms this is done in response to a DLL_THREAD_DETACH message being sent to the libcrypto32.dll entry point. Some windows functions may cause threads to exit without sending this message (for example ExitProcess()). If the application uses such functions, then the application must free up OpenSSL resources directly via a call to OPENSSL_thread_stop() on each thread. Similarly this message will also not be sent if OpenSSL is linked statically, and therefore applications using static linking should also call OPENSSL_thread_stop() on each thread. Additionally if OpenSSL is loaded dynamically via LoadLibrary() and the threads are not destroyed until after FreeLibrary() is called then each thread should call OPENSSL_thread_stop() prior to the FreeLibrary() call.</p> <p>On Linux/Unix where OpenSSL has been loaded via dlopen() and the application is multi-threaded and if dlclose() is subsequently called prior to the threads being destroyed then OpenSSL will not be able to deallocate resources associated with those threads. The application should either call OPENSSL_thread_stop() on each thread prior to the dlclose() call, or alternatively the original dlopen() call should use the RTLD_NODELETE flag (where available on the platform).</p> <h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1> <p>The functions OPENSSL_init_crypto, OPENSSL_atexit() and OPENSSL_INIT_set_config_appname() return 1 on success or 0 on error.</p> <h1 id="SEE-ALSO">SEE ALSO</h1> <p><a href="../man3/OPENSSL_init_ssl.html">OPENSSL_init_ssl(3)</a></p> <h1 id="HISTORY">HISTORY</h1> <p>The OPENSSL_init_crypto(), OPENSSL_cleanup(), OPENSSL_atexit(), OPENSSL_thread_stop(), OPENSSL_INIT_new(), OPENSSL_INIT_set_config_appname() and OPENSSL_INIT_free() functions were added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.</p> <h1 id="COPYRIGHT">COPYRIGHT</h1> <p>Copyright 2016-2022 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
