+=head1 NAME
+
+SSL_CONF_cmd_argv - SSL configuration command line processing.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/ssl.h>
+
+ int SSL_CONF_cmd_argv(SSL_CONF_CTX *cctx, int *pargc, char ***pargv);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The function SSL_CONF_cmd_argv() processes at most two command line
+arguments from B<pargv> and B<pargc>. The values of B<pargv> and B<pargc>
+are updated to reflect the number of command options processed. The B<pargc>
+argument can be set to B<NULL> is it is not used.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+SSL_CONF_cmd_argv() returns the number of command arguments processed: 0, 1, 2
+or a negative error code.
+
+If -2 is returned then an argument for a command is missing.
+
+If -1 is returned the command is recognised but couldn't be processed due
+to an error: for example a syntax error in the argument.
