+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_add_compression_method()\fR adds the compression method \fBcm\fR with
+the identifier \fBid\fR to the list of available compression methods. This
+list is globally maintained for all SSL operations within this application.
+It cannot be set for specific SSL_CTX or SSL objects.
+.PP
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_get_compression_methods()\fR returns a stack of all of the available
+compression methods or NULL on error.
+.PP
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_get0_name()\fR returns the name of the compression method \fBcomp\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_get_id()\fR returns the id of the compression method \fBcomp\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_free_compression_methods()\fR releases any resources acquired to
+maintain the internal table of compression methods.
+.SH NOTES
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+The TLS standard (or SSLv3) allows the integration of compression methods
+into the communication. The TLS RFC does however not specify compression
+methods or their corresponding identifiers, so there is currently no compatible
+way to integrate compression with unknown peers. It is therefore currently not
+recommended to integrate compression into applications. Applications for
+non-public use may agree on certain compression methods. Using different
+compression methods with the same identifier will lead to connection failure.
+.PP
+An OpenSSL client speaking a protocol that allows compression (SSLv3, TLSv1)
+will unconditionally send the list of all compression methods enabled with
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_add_compression_method()\fR to the server during the handshake.
+Unlike the mechanisms to set a cipher list, there is no method available to
+restrict the list of compression method on a per connection basis.
+.PP
+An OpenSSL server will match the identifiers listed by a client against
+its own compression methods and will unconditionally activate compression
+when a matching identifier is found. There is no way to restrict the list
+of compression methods supported on a per connection basis.
+.PP
+If enabled during compilation, the OpenSSL library will have the
+following compression methods available:
+.IP \fBCOMP_zlib()\fR 4
+.IX Item "COMP_zlib()"
+.PD 0
+.IP \fBCOMP_brotli()\fR 4
+.IX Item "COMP_brotli()"
+.IP \fBCOMP_brotli_oneshot()\fR 4
+.IX Item "COMP_brotli_oneshot()"
+.IP \fBCOMP_zstd()\fR 4
+.IX Item "COMP_zstd()"

+.IX Item "COMP_zstd_oneshot()"

+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_add_compression_method()\fR may return the following values:
+.IP 0 4
+The operation succeeded.
+.IP 1 4
+.IX Item "1"
+The operation failed. Check the error queue to find out the reason.
+.PP
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_get_compression_methods()\fR returns the stack of compressions methods or
+NULL on error.
+.PP
+\&\fBSSL_COMP_get0_name()\fR returns the name of the compression method or NULL on error.

+\&\fBSSL_COMP_get_id()\fR returns the name of the compression method or \-1 on error.

+.IX Header "HISTORY"
+The \fBSSL_COMP_free_compression_methods()\fR function was deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
+The \fBSSL_COMP_get0_name()\fR and \fBSSL_comp_get_id()\fR functions were added in OpenSSL 1.1.0d.
