Can you point to instructions on how to load provider
it into OpenSSL?
Is there something similar to "[engine_section]",
that can be used to configure loading from openssl.conf?
Yes. See the "config" man page here:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man3.0/man5/config.html
In particular look at the section "Provider Configuration"
You can also load providers through the API. See:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man3.0/man3/OSSL_PROVIDER_load.html

Another, slightly more complicated, but fully self contained provider is
here:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/test/tls-provider.c
And another one here:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/test/p_test.c
A minimal bare bones provider is here:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/providers/nullprov.c
The legacy provider is also worth looking at:

Shiva,
you may also have a look at thehttps://github.com/provider-corner/vigenere
That's (as far as I know) the most simple provider implementation available.

Subject: Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: ENGINE API replacement for Openssl3.0
I am sorry but as I said providers are not a direct replacement for ENGINEs. It is a completely different implementation of the same concept of pluggable cryptographical modules for OpenSSL. You can look at the OpenSSL manual pages for the providers.
This is the starting point:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man3.0/man7/provider.html
There is no tutorial as for how to implement your own provider. And as I said on the application side if the application loads an OpenSSL configuration file the providers loaded can be configured via the config file and does not require any explicit API calls from the application.
I'd recommend looking at some of the test sources in the tests directory for some code examples.

Hi Tomas,
As Engine function are deprecated I tried using providers
But how to use providers to get engine functionality tried in man
pages
Some sample program will help, maybe some sample program will give the
clear idea how to use provider
Struggling in understand the providers
Please share the sample program and the links to understand the
providers
Thanks,
