.. \*(C` and \*(C' are quotes in nroff, nothing in troff, for use with C<>.
. ds C` "" . ds C' "" 'br\} . ds C` . ds C' 'br\}
Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

Title "X509_get0_distinguishing_id 3" For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.
X509_get0_distinguishing_id, X509_set0_distinguishing_id, X509_REQ_get0_distinguishing_id, X509_REQ_set0_distinguishing_id \- get or set the Distinguishing ID for certificate operations Header "SYNOPSIS" .Vb 1 #include <openssl/x509.h> \& ASN1_OCTET_STRING *X509_get0_distinguishing_id(X509 *x); void X509_set0_distinguishing_id(X509 *x, ASN1_OCTET_STRING *distid); ASN1_OCTET_STRING *X509_REQ_get0_distinguishing_id(X509_REQ *x); void X509_REQ_set0_distinguishing_id(X509_REQ *x, ASN1_OCTET_STRING *distid); .Ve Header "DESCRIPTION" The Distinguishing ID is defined in FIPS 196 as follows: Item "Distinguishing identifier" Information which unambiguously distinguishes an entity in the authentication process.

The SM2 signature algorithm requires a Distinguishing ID value when generating and verifying a signature, but the Ddistinguishing ID may also find other uses. In the context of SM2, the Distinguishing ID is often referred to as the "SM2 ID".

For the purpose off verifying a certificate or a certification request, a Distinguishing ID may be attached to it, so functions like X509_verify\|(3) or X509_REQ_verify\|(3) have easy access to that identity for signature verification.

\fBX509_get0_distinguishing_id() gets the Distinguishing ID value of a certificate \fBx by returning an ASN1_OCTET_STRING object which should not be freed by the caller.

\fBX509_set0_distinguishing_id() assigns distid to the certificate x. Calling this function transfers the memory management of the value to the X509 object, and therefore the value that has been passed in should not be freed by the caller after this function has been called.

\fBX509_REQ_get0_distinguishing_id() and X509_REQ_set0_distinguishing_id() have the same functionality as X509_get0_distinguishing_id() and \fBX509_set0_distinguishing_id() except that they deal with X509_REQ objects instead of X509.

Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBX509_set0_distinguishing_id() and X509_REQ_set0_distinguishing_id() do not return a value. Header "SEE ALSO" \fBX509_verify\|(3), SM2\|(7) Header "COPYRIGHT" Copyright 2019-2020 The OpenSSL Project Authors. All Rights Reserved.
