Correct FIPS cipher choice for OpenSSL 3.0

https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/FIPS_mode_and_TLS has a recommendation for what cipher specification to use to select only FIPS-permitted ciphers (“TLSv1.2+FIPS:kRSA+FIPS:!eNULL:!aNULL”), but it looks like it hasn’t been updated in some time.  Have the OpenSSL 3.x branches updated the definition of cipher selection “FIPS” so that this is no longer necessary, or is it the same as it was in 1.0.2 and includes ciphers that are no longer allowed?  Does FIPS 140-3 affect this at all?



Thank you.
