Getting FIPS Provider Context

Hi,

I'm trying to enable FIPS using the configuration file. So instead of explicitly calling the LOAD APIs I'm able doing by adding these line in the openssl cnf file:
openssl_conf = openssl_init

.include /usr/local/ssl/fipsmodule.cnf

[openssl_init]
providers = provider_sect

[provider_sect]
fips = fips_sect
base = base_sect

[base_sect]
activate = 1
Now, since I also want to run selftests which require a handle to FIPS provider, is there any API to get the handle to it?

Thanks,
Ashish
