.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
These functions save and restore the error state from the thread
local error state to a preallocated error state structure.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_new()\fR allocates an empty error state structure to
be used when saving and restoring thread error state.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save()\fR saves the thread error state to \fIes\fR. It
subsequently clears the thread error state. Any previously saved
state in \fIes\fR is cleared prior to saving the new state.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save_to_mark()\fR is similar to \fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save()\fR but only saves
ERR entries up to the most recent mark on the ERR stack. These entries are moved
to \fIes\fR and removed from the thread error state. However, the most recent
marked ERR and any ERR state before it remains part of the thread error state
and is not moved to the ERR_STATE. The mark is not cleared and must be cleared
explicitly after a call to this function using \fBERR_pop_to_mark\fR\|(3) or
\&\fBERR_clear_last_mark\fR\|(3). (Since a call to \fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save_to_mark()\fR leaves
the marked ERR as the top error, either of these functions will have the same
effect.) If there is no marked ERR in the thread local error state, all ERR
entries are copied and the effect is the same as for a call to
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_restore()\fR adds all the error entries from the
saved state \fIes\fR to the thread error state. Existing entries in
the thread error state are not affected if there is enough space
for all the added entries. Any allocated data in the saved error
entries is duplicated on adding to the thread state.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_free()\fR frees the saved error state \fIes\fR.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_new()\fR returns a pointer to the allocated ERR_STATE
structure or NULL on error.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save()\fR, \fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save_to_mark()\fR, \fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_restore()\fR,
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_free()\fR do not return any values.
.SH NOTES
.IX Header "NOTES"
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save()\fR and \fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_save_to_mark()\fR cannot fail as it takes
over any allocated data from the thread error state.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_ERR_STATE_restore()\fR is a best effort function. The only failure
that can happen during its operation is when memory allocation fails.
Because it manipulates the thread error state it avoids raising memory
errors on such failure. At worst the restored error entries will be
missing the auxiliary error data.
