Ok. So I use the libp11 project DLL file for the SO_PATH and my smart
card middleware DLL for the MODULE_PATH when setting up the OpenSSL
Engine?
yes just like in the example I posted below.
I would recommend the p11 wiki page to do it using the command line
first - much easier to test & debug.

Hi,
I've been looking at the code in the pppd EAP-TLS patch, but I
can't seem to load the engine with the pkcs11 DLL. It is failing
with the error:
error:2507606A:DSO support routines:WIN32_BIND_FUNC:could not bind
to the requested symbol name
I've verified the path is correct.
I am using OpenSSL1.0.2u with the FIPS Object Module 2.0.16 in
Windows 10. Do I need to do anything special to allow loading of
DLLs in OpenSSL?
Here is what I am trying to do:
char* engine_name =
"C:\\Users\\whipp\\junk4\\ActivClient\\acpkcs211.dll";
ENGINE_load_builtin_engines();
ENGINE_register_all_complete();
ENGINE *pkey_engine = ENGINE_by_id("dynamic");
ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(pkey_engine, "SO_PATH", engine_name, 0);
ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(pkey_engine, "ID", "pkcs11", 0);
ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(pkey_engine, "LOAD", NULL, 0);
Do you see anything wrong with this?
I forgot to mention that loading a PKCS11 driver from within OpenSSL
is a 2 stage rocket:
first stage: load the engine_pkcs11 module using
char* engine_name = "|C:\\Windows\\System32\\pkcs11.dll"|
This is a separate piece of code and is part of the libp11 project:
https://github.com/OpenSC/libp11
(it also has a nice wiki that explains how to do it on the command
line using OPENSSL.EXE)
Then create an openssl.cnf section like this:
|openssl_conf = openssl_init [openssl_init] engines = engine_section
[engine_section] pkcs11 = pkcs11_section [pkcs11_section] engine_id =
pkcs11 dynamic_path = "C:\Windows\System32\opensc-pkcs11.dll"
MODULE_path = "||C:\Users\whipp\junk4\ActivClient\acpkcs211.dll" PIN = "0001password"
init = 0|
and load that (see the EAP-TLS code for an example or read
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41119744/pkcs11-engine-for-openssl
for a similar question).

Ok, so I am not actually going to populate EVP_PKEY with a private
key in the callback function:
int (*client_cert_cb)(SSL *ssl, X509 **x509, *EVP_PKEY **pkey*)?
Instead, I will call
EVP_PKEY *ENGINE_load_private_key(ENGINE *e, const char *key_id,
UI_METHOD *ui_method, void *callback_data);
to get the EVP_PKEY, which will be used by OpenSSL to access the
Smart Card.
Once I get the resulting EVP_PKEY using
ENGINE_load_private_key(...), how do I assign it to pkey in the
callback function?
If I had private key I would use something like
EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA(..)
Since I don't actually have a private key, should I use something
else?
like Michael pointed out, my eap-tls code is just an example of
how you could handle a pkcs11 device; it does not us a callback at
all, but my code loads the client cert+key upfront and avoids
having to use a client callback altogether.
I guess you could also use a client callback for this (perhaps in
combination with SSL_CTX_set_client_cert_engine()) . In that case
you would get the (pseudo) key from the engine like this
EVP_PKEY *engine_key = ENGINE_load_private_key(ENGINE *e, const
char *key_id, UI_METHOD *ui_method, void *callback_data);
and then set
pkey = &engine_key;
and see if that works.
Note that the ENGINE_load_private_key() function *does* return a
EVP_PKEY struct but that does not mean the entire private key is
contained in it; a private key consists of a modulus and a private
part (exponent, prime1, prime2, exponent1, exponent2 etc). the
ENGINE_load_private_key() call will return a struct containing the
modulus but not the rest. You then use the engine to do the actual
encryption and decryption.
