=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<X509_PUBKEY> structure represents the ASN.1 B<SubjectPublicKeyInfo>
|
|
structure defined in RFC5280 and used in certificates and certificate requests.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_new() allocates and initializes an B<X509_PUBKEY> structure.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_free() frees up B<X509_PUBKEY> structure B<a>. If B<a> is NULL
|
|
nothing is done.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_set() sets the public key in B<*x> to the public key contained
|
|
in the B<EVP_PKEY> structure B<pkey>. If B<*x> is not NULL any existing
|
|
public key structure will be freed.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_get0() returns the public key contained in B<key>. The returned
|
|
value is an internal pointer which B<MUST NOT> be freed after use.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_get() is similar to X509_PUBKEY_get0() except the reference
|
|
count on the returned key is incremented so it B<MUST> be freed using
|
|
EVP_PKEY_free() after use.
|
|
|
|
d2i_PUBKEY() and i2d_PUBKEY() decode and encode an B<EVP_PKEY> structure
|
|
using B<SubjectPublicKeyInfo> format. They otherwise follow the conventions of
|
|
other ASN.1 functions such as d2i_X509().
|
|
|
|
d2i_PUBKEY_bio(), d2i_PUBKEY_fp(), i2d_PUBKEY_bio() and i2d_PUBKEY_fp() are
|
|
similar to d2i_PUBKEY() and i2d_PUBKEY() except they decode or encode using a
|
|
B<BIO> or B<FILE> pointer.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_set0_param() sets the public key parameters of B<pub>. The
|
|
OID associated with the algorithm is set to B<aobj>. The type of the
|
|
algorithm parameters is set to B<type> using the structure B<pval>.
|
|
The encoding of the public key itself is set to the B<penclen>
|
|
bytes contained in buffer B<penc>. On success ownership of all the supplied
|
|
parameters is passed to B<pub> so they must not be freed after the
|
|
call.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_get0_param() retrieves the public key parameters from B<pub>,
|
|
B<*ppkalg> is set to the associated OID and the encoding consists of
|
|
B<*ppklen> bytes at B<*pk>, B<*pa> is set to the associated
|
|
AlgorithmIdentifier for the public key. If the value of any of these
|
|
parameters is not required it can be set to B<NULL>. All of the
|
|
retrieved pointers are internal and must not be freed after the
|
|
call.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
The B<X509_PUBKEY> functions can be used to encode and decode public keys
|
|
in a standard format.
|
|
|
|
In many cases applications will not call the B<X509_PUBKEY> functions
|
|
directly: they will instead call wrapper functions such as X509_get0_pubkey().
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
If the allocation fails, X509_PUBKEY_new() returns B<NULL> and sets an error
|
|
code that can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_free() does not return a value.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_get0() and X509_PUBKEY_get() return a pointer to an B<EVP_PKEY>
|
|
structure or B<NULL> if an error occurs.
|
|
|
|
X509_PUBKEY_set(), X509_PUBKEY_set0_param() and X509_PUBKEY_get0_param()
|
|
return 1 for success and 0 if an error occurred.
