+=head1 NAME
+
+BN_CTX_new, BN_CTX_secure_new, BN_CTX_free - allocate and free BN_CTX structures
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/bn.h>
+
+ BN_CTX *BN_CTX_new(void);
+
+ BN_CTX *BN_CTX_secure_new(void);
+
+ void BN_CTX_free(BN_CTX *c);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+A B<BN_CTX> is a structure that holds B<BIGNUM> temporary variables used by
+library functions. Since dynamic memory allocation to create B<BIGNUM>s
+is rather expensive when used in conjunction with repeated subroutine
+calls, the B<BN_CTX> structure is used.
+
+BN_CTX_new() allocates and initializes a B<BN_CTX> structure.
+BN_CTX_secure_new() allocates and initializes a B<BN_CTX> structure
+but uses the secure heap (see L<CRYPTO_secure_malloc(3)>) to hold the
+B<BIGNUM>s.
+
+BN_CTX_free() frees the components of the B<BN_CTX>, and if it was
+created by BN_CTX_new(), also the structure itself.
+If L<BN_CTX_start(3)> has been used on the B<BN_CTX>,
+L<BN_CTX_end(3)> must be called before the B<BN_CTX>
+may be freed by BN_CTX_free().
+If B<c> is NULL, nothing is done.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+BN_CTX_new() and BN_CTX_secure_new() return a pointer to the B<BN_CTX>.
+If the allocation fails,
+they return B<NULL> and sets an error code that can be obtained by
+L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
+
+BN_CTX_free() has no return values.
+
+=head1 REMOVED FUNCTIONALITY
+
+ void BN_CTX_init(BN_CTX *c);
+
+BN_CTX_init() is no longer available as of OpenSSL 1.1.0. Applications should
+replace use of BN_CTX_init with BN_CTX_new instead:
+
+ BN_CTX *ctx;
+ ctx = BN_CTX_new();
+ if(!ctx) /* Handle error */
+ ...
+ BN_CTX_free(ctx);
+
+=head1 SEE ALSO
+
+L<ERR_get_error(3)>, L<BN_add(3)>,
+L<BN_CTX_start(3)>
+
+=head1 HISTORY
+
+BN_CTX_init() was removed in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
