NAME

gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2 - API function

SYNOPSIS

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t list, gnutls_x509_crt_t * cert_list, unsigned int cert_list_size, gnutls_typed_vdata_st * data, unsigned int elements, unsigned int flags, unsigned int * voutput, gnutls_verify_output_function func);

ARGUMENTS

The structure of the list
is the certificate list to be verified
is the certificate list size
an array of typed data
the number of data elements
Flags that may be used to change the verification algorithm. Use OR of the gnutls_certificate_verify_flags enumerations.
will hold the certificate verification output.
If non-null will be called on each chain element verification with the output.

DESCRIPTION

This function will try to verify the given certificate and return its status. The verify parameter will hold an OR'ed sequence of gnutls_certificate_status_t flags.

Additionally a certificate verification profile can be specified from the ones in gnutls_certificate_verification_profiles_t by ORing the result of GNUTLS_PROFILE_TO_VFLAGS() to the verification flags.

The acceptable data types are GNUTLS_DT_DNS_HOSTNAME and GNUTLS_DT_KEY_PURPOSE_OID. The former accepts as data a null-terminated hostname, and the latter a null-terminated object identifier (e.g., GNUTLS_KP_TLS_WWW_SERVER). If a DNS hostname is provided then this function will compare the hostname in the certificate against the given. If names do not match the GNUTLS_CERT_UNEXPECTED_OWNER status flag will be set. If a key purpose OID is provided and the end-certificate contains the extended key usage PKIX extension, it will be required to be have the provided key purpose or be marked for any purpose, otherwise verification will fail with GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNER_CONSTRAINTS_FAILURE status.

RETURNS

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative error value. Note that verification failure will not result to an error code, only voutput will be updated.
