=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This set of functions are used to compare X509 objects, including X509
|
||
|
|
certificates, X509 CRL objects and various values in an X509 certificate.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The X509_cmp() function compares two B<X509> objects indicated by parameters
|
||
|
|
B<a> and B<b>. The comparison is based on the B<memcmp> result of the hash
|
||
|
|
values of two B<X509> objects and the canonical (DER) encoding values.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The X509_NAME_cmp() function compares two B<X509_NAME> objects indicated by
|
||
|
|
parameters B<a> and B<b>. The comparison is based on the B<memcmp> result of
|
||
|
|
the canonical (DER) encoding values of the two objects. L<i2d_X509_NAME(3)>
|
||
|
|
has a more detailed description of the DER encoding of the B<X509_NAME> structure.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The X509_issuer_and_serial_cmp() function compares the serial number and issuer
|
||
|
|
values in the given B<X509> objects B<a> and B<b>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The X509_issuer_name_cmp(), X509_subject_name_cmp() and X509_CRL_cmp() functions
|
||
|
|
are effectively wrappers of the X509_NAME_cmp() function. These functions compare
|
||
|
|
issuer names and subject names of the X<509> objects, or issuers of B<X509_CRL>
|
||
|
|
objects, respectively.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The X509_CRL_match() function compares two B<X509_CRL> objects. Unlike the
|
||
|
|
X509_CRL_cmp() function, this function compares the whole CRL content instead
|
||
|
|
of just the issuer name.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Like common memory comparison functions, the B<X509> comparison functions return
|
||
|
|
an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if object B<a> is found to
|
||
|
|
be less than, to match, or be greater than object B<b>, respectively.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
X509_NAME_cmp(), X509_issuer_and_serial_cmp(), X509_issuer_name_cmp(),
|
||
|
|
X509_subject_name_cmp() and X509_CRL_cmp() may return B<-2> to indicate an error.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
These functions in fact utilize the underlying B<memcmp> of the C library to do
|
||
|
|
the comparison job. Data to be compared varies from DER encoding data, hash
|
||
|
|
value or B<ASN1_STRING>. The sign of the comparison can be used to order the
|
||
|
|
objects but it does not have a special meaning in some cases.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
X509_NAME_cmp() and wrappers utilize the value B<-2> to indicate errors in some
|
||
|
|
circumstances, which could cause confusion for the applications.
