2018-08-21Updated the engine load functionalityLars Thorsen
- engine_load/3/4 can be called multiple times for same engine if it allows it (eg doesn't contain global data) - ensure_engine_loaded/2/3 is new functions that guarantees that the engine is just loaded once by adding it to OpenSSL internal engine list and check that before loading. - ensure_engine_unloaded/1/2 is new functions that is used to unload engines loaded with ensure_engine_loaded (remove it from OpenSSL internal engine list and then unload). - new utility functions engine_by_id/1, engine_add/1, engine_remove/1, engine_get_id/1 and engine_get_name/1
2017-11-10[crypto] Add support for loading an alternative EngineLars Thorsen
Add support to plug in alternative implementations for some or all of the cryptographic operations supported by the OpenSSL Engine API. When configured appropriately, OpenSSL calls the engine's implementation of these operations instead of its own.
