=head1 NAME

ossl_property_list_to_string, ossl_global_properties_no_mirrored
- internal property routines

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include "internal/property.h"

 size_t ossl_property_list_to_string(OSSL_LIB_CTX *ctx,
                                     const OSSL_PROPERTY_LIST *list, char *buf,
                                     size_t bufsize);

 int ossl_global_properties_no_mirrored(OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx);
 void ossl_global_properties_no_mirrored(OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx);


=head1 DESCRIPTION

ossl_property_list_to_string() takes a given OSSL_PROPERTY_LIST in I<list> and
converts it to a string. If I<buf> is non NULL then the string will be stored
in I<buf>. The size of the buffer is provided in I<bufsize>. If I<bufsize> is
too short then the string will be truncated. If I<buf> is NULL then the length
of the string is still calculated and returned. If the property list has no
properties in it then the empty string will be stored in I<buf>.

ossl_global_properties_no_mirrored() checks whether mirroring of global
properties from a parent library context is allowed for the current library
context.

ossl_global_properties_no_mirrored() prevents future mirroring of global
properties from a parent library context for the current library context.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

ossl_property_list_to_string() returns the length of the string, or 0 on error.

ossl_global_properties_no_mirrored() returns 1 if mirroring of global properties
is not allowed, or 0 otherwise.
