No it only applies to the "openssl" application.

Thanks Steve.
When the environment variable OPENSSL_FIPS is set, does it enable FIPS mode
globally, so that any applications which use OpenSSL also enter FIPS mode?

Ihe openssl command enters FIPS mode if the environmant variable OPENSSL_FIPS
is set.

Thanks Steve.
So basically the idea is to allow companies build the OpenSSL with FIPS
modules in their product and ship only this version of OpenSSL to all their
customers. For the customers who don't need FIPS, then just simply keep the
FIPS mode disabled and then the OpenSSL will behave just lik

Yes and no.
The "FIPS enabled" OpenSSL consists of OpenSSL

Thanks.
