=head1 DESCRIPTION
Packit c4476c
Packit c4476c
PEM_read_bio_ex() reads in PEM formatted data from an input BIO, outputting
Packit c4476c
the name of the type of contained data, the header information regarding
Packit c4476c
the possibly encrypted data, and the binary data payload (after base64 decoding).
Packit c4476c
It should generally only be used to implement PEM_read_bio_-family functions
Packit c4476c
for specific data types or other usage, but is exposed to allow greater flexibility
Packit c4476c
over how processing is performed, if needed.
Packit c4476c
Packit c4476c
If PEM_FLAG_SECURE is set, the intermediate buffers used to read in lines of
Packit c4476c
input are allocated from the secure heap.
Packit c4476c
Packit c4476c
If PEM_FLAG_EAY_COMPATIBLE is set, a simple algorithm is used to remove whitespace
Packit c4476c
and control characters from the end of each line, so as to be compatible with
Packit c4476c
the historical behavior of PEM_read_bio().
Packit c4476c
Packit c4476c
If PEM_FLAG_ONLY_B64 is set, all characters are required to be valid base64
Packit c4476c
characters (or newlines); non-base64 characters are treated as end of input.
Packit c4476c
Packit c4476c
If neither PEM_FLAG_EAY_COMPATIBLE or PEM_FLAG_ONLY_B64 is set, control characters
Packit c4476c
are ignored.
Packit c4476c
Packit c4476c
If both PEM_FLAG_EAY_COMPATIBLE and PEM_FLAG_ONLY_B64 are set, an error is returned;
Packit c4476c
these options are not compatible with each other.

=head1 NOTES
Packit c4476c
Packit c4476c
The caller must release the storage allocated for *name, *header, and *data.
Packit c4476c
If PEM_FLAG_SECURE was set, use OPENSSL_secure_free(); otherwise,
Packit c4476c
OPENSSL_free() is used.
