//TODO: model as data on open APIs should be able to get common flows, and obviate some of this
// e.g., copy/dup calls, need to ingest those models for openSSL and refactor.
/**
 * In OpenSSL, flow between 'context' parameters is often used to
 * store state/config of how an operation will eventually be performed.
 * Tracing algorithms and configurations to operations therefore
 * requires tracing context parameters for many OpenSSL apis.
 *
 * This library provides a dataflow analysis to track context parameters
 * between any two functions accepting openssl context parameters.
 * The dataflow takes into consideration flowing through duplication and copy calls
 * as well as flow through flow killers (free/reset calls).
 *
 * TODO: we may need to revisit 'free' as a dataflow killer, depending on how
 * we want to model use after frees.
 *
 * This library also provides classes to represent context Types and relevant
 * arguments/expressions.
