       The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be hidden entirely
       by defining OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable version value, see openssl_user_macros(7):

        unsigned long ERR_get_error_line(const char **file, int *line);
        unsigned long ERR_get_error_line_data(const char **file, int *line,
                                              const char **data, int *flags);
        unsigned long ERR_peek_error_line_data(const char **file, int *line,
                                               const char **data, int *flags);
        unsigned long ERR_peek_last_error_line_data(const char **file, int *line,
                                                    const char **data, int *flags);

DESCRIPTION

       ERR_get_error() returns the earliest error code from the thread's error queue and removes
       the entry.  This function can be called repeatedly until there are no more error codes to
       return.

       ERR_peek_error() returns the earliest error code from the thread's error queue without
       modifying it.

       ERR_peek_last_error() returns the latest error code from the thread's error queue without
       modifying it.

       See ERR_GET_LIB(3) for obtaining further specific information such as the reason of the
       error, and ERR_error_string(3) for human-readable error messages.

       ERR_get_error_all() is the same as ERR_get_error(), but on success it additionally stores
       the filename, line number and function where the error occurred in *file, *line and *func,
       and also extra text and flags in *data, *flags.  If any of those parameters are NULL, it
       will not be changed.  An unset filename is indicated as "", i.e. an empty string.  An
       unset line number is indicated as 0.  An unset function name is indicated as "", i.e. an
       empty string.

       A pointer returned this way by these functions and the ones below is valid until the
       respective entry is overwritten in the error queue.

       ERR_peek_error_line() and ERR_peek_last_error_line() are the same as ERR_peek_error() and
       ERR_peek_last_error(), but on success they additionally store the filename and line number
       where the error occurred in *file and *line, as far as they are not NULL.  An unset
       filename is indicated as "", i.e., an empty string.  An unset line number is indicated as
       0.

       ERR_peek_error_func() and ERR_peek_last_error_func() are the same as ERR_peek_error() and
       ERR_peek_last_error(), but on success they additionally store the name of the function
       where the error occurred in *func, unless it is NULL.  An unset function name is indicated
       as "".

       ERR_peek_error_data() and ERR_peek_last_error_data() are the same as ERR_peek_error() and
       ERR_peek_last_error(), but on success they additionally store additional data and flags
       associated with the error code in *data and *flags, as far as they are not NULL.  Unset
       data is indicated as "".  In this case the value given for the flag is irrelevant (and
       equals 0).  *data contains a string if *flags&ERR_TXT_STRING is true.

       ERR_peek_error_all() and ERR_peek_last_error_all() are combinations of all of the above.

       ERR_get_error_line(), ERR_get_error_line_data(), ERR_peek_error_line_data() and
       ERR_peek_last_error_line_data() are older variants of ERR_get_error_all(),
       ERR_peek_error_all() and ERR_peek_last_error_all(), and may give confusing results.  They
       should no longer be used and are therefore deprecated.

       An application MUST NOT free the *data pointer (or any other pointers returned by these
       functions) with OPENSSL_free() as freeing is handled automatically by the error library.

RETURN VALUES

       The error code, or 0 if there is no error in the queue.

HISTORY

       ERR_peek_error_func(), ERR_peek_last_error_func(), ERR_peek_error_data(),
       ERR_peek_last_error_data(), ERR_peek_error_all() and ERR_peek_last_error_all() were added
       in OpenSSL 3.0.

       ERR_get_error_line(), ERR_get_error_line_data(), ERR_peek_error_line_data() and
       ERR_peek_last_error_line_data() became deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
