+.SH NAME
+OPENSSL_init_ssl \- OpenSSL (libssl and libcrypto) initialisation
+.SH SYNOPSIS

+.Vb 1
+\& #include <openssl/ssl.h>
+\&
+\& int OPENSSL_init_ssl(uint64_t opts, const OPENSSL_INIT_SETTINGS *settings);
+.Ve
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+During normal operation OpenSSL (libssl and libcrypto) will allocate various
+resources at start up that must, subsequently, be freed on close down of the
+library. 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.
+.PP
+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.
+.PP
+However, there may be situations when explicit initialisation is desirable or
+needed, for example when some nondefault initialisation is required. The
+function \fBOPENSSL_init_ssl()\fR can be used for this purpose. Calling
+this function will explicitly initialise BOTH libcrypto and libssl. To
+explicitly initialise ONLY libcrypto see the
+\&\fBOPENSSL_init_crypto\fR\|(3) function.
+.PP
+Numerous internal OpenSSL functions call \fBOPENSSL_init_ssl()\fR.
+Therefore, in order to perform nondefault initialisation,
+\&\fBOPENSSL_init_ssl()\fR MUST be called by application code prior to
+any other OpenSSL function calls.
+.PP
+The \fBopts\fR parameter specifies which aspects of libssl and libcrypto should be
+initialised. Valid options for libcrypto are described on the
+\&\fBOPENSSL_init_crypto\fR\|(3) page. In addition to any libcrypto
+specific option the following libssl options can also be used:
+.IP OPENSSL_INIT_NO_LOAD_SSL_STRINGS 4
+.IX Item "OPENSSL_INIT_NO_LOAD_SSL_STRINGS"
+Suppress automatic loading of the libssl error strings. This option is
+not a default option. Once selected subsequent calls to
+\&\fBOPENSSL_init_ssl()\fR with the option
+\&\fBOPENSSL_INIT_LOAD_SSL_STRINGS\fR will be ignored.
+.IP OPENSSL_INIT_LOAD_SSL_STRINGS 4
+.IX Item "OPENSSL_INIT_LOAD_SSL_STRINGS"
+Automatic loading of the libssl error strings. This option is a
+default option. Once selected subsequent calls to
+\&\fBOPENSSL_init_ssl()\fR with the option
+\&\fBOPENSSL_INIT_LOAD_SSL_STRINGS\fR will be ignored.
+.PP
+\&\fBOPENSSL_init_ssl()\fR takes a \fBsettings\fR parameter which can be used to
+set parameter values. See \fBOPENSSL_init_crypto\fR\|(3) for details.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
