=head1 DESCRIPTION

A B<OSSL_NAMEMAP> is a one-to-many number E<lt>-E<gt> names map, which
can be used to give any arbitrary set of names (any string) a unique
dynamic identity that is valid throughout the lifetime of the associated
library context.

ossl_namemap_new() and ossl_namemap_free() construct and destruct a
new B<OSSL_NAMEMAP>.
This is suitable to use when the B<OSSL_NAMEMAP> is embedded in other
structures, or should be independent for any reason.

ossl_namemap_empty() checks if the given B<OSSL_NAMEMAP> is empty or
not.

ossl_namemap_stored() finds or auto-creates the default namemap in the
given library context.
The returned B<OSSL_NAMEMAP> can't be destructed using
ossl_namemap_free().

ossl_namemap_add_name() adds a new name to the namemap if it's not already
present.
If the given I<number> is zero, a new number will be allocated to
identify this I<name>.
If the given I<number> is nonzero, the I<name> is added to the set of
names already associated with that number.

ossl_namemap_name2num() finds the number corresponding to the given
I<name>.

ossl_namemap_name2num_n() does the same thing as
ossl_namemap_name2num(), but takes a string length I<name_len> as well,
allowing the caller to use a fragment of a string as a name.

ossl_namemap_num2name() finds the I<idx>th name associated with the
id I<number>.

ossl_namemap_doall_names() walks through all names associated with
I<number> in the given I<namemap> and calls the function I<fn> for
each of them.
I<fn> is also passed the I<data> argument, which allows any caller to
pass extra data for that function to use.

ossl_namemap_add_names() divides up a set of names given in I<names>,
separated by I<separator>, and adds each to the I<namemap>, all with
the same number.  If some of them already exist in the I<namemap>,
they must all have the same associated number, which will be adopted
for any name that doesn't exist yet.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

ossl_namemap_new() and ossl_namemap_stored() return the pointer to a
B<OSSL_NAMEMAP>, or NULL on error.

ossl_namemap_empty() returns 1 if the B<OSSL_NAMEMAP> is NULL or
empty, 0 if it's not empty, or -1 on internal error (such as inability
to lock).

ossl_namemap_add_name() returns the number associated with the added
string, or zero on error.

ossl_namemap_num2name() returns a pointer to I<idx>th name associated
with id I<number>, or NULL if it's undefined in the given
B<OSSL_NAMEMAP>.

ossl_namemap_name2num() and ossl_namemap_name2num_n() return the number
corresponding to the given name, or 0 if it's undefined in the given
B<OSSL_NAMEMAP>.

ossl_namemap_doall_names() returns 1 if the callback was called for all names. A
return value of 0 means that the callback was not called for any names.

ossl_namemap_add_names() returns the number associated with the added
names, or zero on error.

=head1 NOTES

The result from ossl_namemap_num2names() isn't thread safe, other threads
dealing with the same namemap may cause the list of names to change
location.
It is therefore strongly recommended to only use the result in code
guarded by a thread lock.
