DESCRIPTION

     These functions initialise an X509_STORE_CTX structure for
     subsequent use by X509_verify_cert().

     X509_STORE_CTX_new() returns a newly initialised
     X509_STORE_CTX structure.

     X509_STORE_CTX_cleanup() internally cleans up an
     X509_STORE_CTX structure.  The context can then be reused
     with an new call to X509_STORE_CTX_init().

     X509_STORE_CTX_free() completely frees up ctx. After this
     call ctx is no longer valid.

     X509_STORE_CTX_init() sets up ctx for a subsequent
     verification operation.  It must be called before each call
     to X509_verify_cert(), i.e. a ctx is only good for one call
     to X509_verify_cert(); if you want to verify a second
     certificate with the same ctx then you must call
     X509_STORE_CTX_cleanup() and then X509_STORE_CTX_init()
     again before the second call to X509_verify_cert(). The
     trusted certificate store is set to store, the end entity
     certificate to be verified is set to x509 and a set of
     additional certificates (which will be untrusted but may be

     used to build the chain) in chain. Any or all of the store,
     x509 and chain parameters can be NULL.

     X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack() sets the set of trusted
     certificates of ctx to sk. This is an alternative way of
     specifying trusted certificates instead of using an
     X509_STORE.

     X509_STORE_CTX_set_cert() sets the certificate to be
     vertified in ctx to x.

     X509_STORE_CTX_set_chain() sets the additional certificate
     chain used by ctx to sk.

     X509_STORE_CTX_set0_crls() sets a set of CRLs to use to aid
     certificate verification to sk. These CRLs will only be used
     if CRL verification is enabled in the associated
     X509_VERIFY_PARAM structure. This might be used where
     additional "useful" CRLs are supplied as part of a protocol,
     for example in a PKCS#7 structure.

     X509_VERIFY_PARAM *X509_STORE_CTX_get0_param() retrieves an
     intenal pointer to the verification parameters associated
     with ctx.

     X509_STORE_CTX_set0_param() sets the intenal verification
     parameter pointer to param. After this call param should not
     be used.

     X509_STORE_CTX_set_default() looks up and sets the default
     verification method to name. This uses the function
     X509_VERIFY_PARAM_lookup() to find an appropriate set of
     parameters from name.

NOTES

     The certificates and CRLs in a store are used internally and
     should not be freed up until after the associated
     X509_STORE_CTX is freed. Legacy applications might
     implicitly use an X509_STORE_CTX like this:

       X509_STORE_CTX ctx;
       X509_STORE_CTX_init(&ctx, store, cert, chain);

     this is not recommended in new applications they should
     instead do:

       X509_STORE_CTX *ctx;
       ctx = X509_STORE_CTX_new();
       if (ctx == NULL)
             /* Bad error */
       X509_STORE_CTX_init(ctx, store, cert, chain);

BUGS

     The certificates and CRLs in a context are used internally
     and should not be freed up until after the associated
     X509_STORE_CTX is freed. Copies should be made or reference
     counts increased instead.

RETURN VALUES

     X509_STORE_CTX_new() returns an newly allocates context or
     NULL is an error occurred.

     X509_STORE_CTX_init() returns 1 for success or 0 if an error
     occurred.

     X509_STORE_CTX_get0_param() returns a pointer to an
     X509_VERIFY_PARAM structure or NULL if an error occurred.

     X509_STORE_CTX_cleanup(), X509_STORE_CTX_free(),
     X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack(), X509_STORE_CTX_set_cert(),
     X509_STORE_CTX_set_chain(), X509_STORE_CTX_set0_crls() and
     X509_STORE_CTX_set0_param() do not return values.

     X509_STORE_CTX_set_default() returns 1 for success or 0 if
     an error occurred.
