* Add a comment saying that the public function NAME_CONSTRAINTS_check(3)schwarze2020-09-171-2/+5
| | | | | is intentionally undocumented and needs to be deprecated. No change of the formatted text.
* Install the new page SSL_set1_host(3), link to it from relevant places,schwarze2020-09-172-10/+14
| | | | | | | and add two other .Xrs that might help readers find their way. Update the merge notices of all files touched and merge a few trivial changes from the OpenSSL 1.1.1 branch. OK tb@

* Add initial man page for new x509_verify chain validatorbeck2020-09-141-0/+225
| | | | | | | | | | This may be changed substantially before we enable the public api, as discussions are still happening over it's final form, however after one pass by ingo he would rather this was here and it can be adjusted in tree, but not installed by the makefile until we make this visible ok schwarze@

* Explain the purpose of CMAC_resume(3) in more detail.schwarze2020-08-061-3/+9
| | | | | | | | Triggered by jmc@ apparently misunderstanding the intention of the text and fixing a grammatical error in a way that wasn't ideal, so i guess he wouldn't have been the only one to find the previous version hard to understand. OK jmc@

* Properly document the return values of EVP_PKEY_base_id(3)schwarze2020-06-244-70/+152
| | | | | | | | and EVP_PKEY_id(3), then describe the "type" parameters of various functions more precisely referencing that information. In particular, document X509_get_signature_type(3) which was so far missing. OK tb@

* Document eight additional pre-OpenSSL-1.1 accessor functions that areschwarze2020-06-241-21/+122
| | | | | | | | | | still widely used according to code searches on the web, so people reading existing code will occasionally want to look them up. While here, correct the return type of X509_CRL_get0_lastUpdate(3) and X509_CRL_get0_nextUpdate(3), which return const pointers. Also, add some precision regarding RETURN VALUES.
* mark the functions documented in des_read_pw(3) as deprecatedschwarze2020-06-192-6/+11

* document X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr(3),schwarze2020-06-191-5/+81
| | | | | | correct the description of X509_get_X509_PUBKEY(3), document error handling of the read accessors, and mention the relevant STANDARDS

| | | | | | | Move pem_password_cb(3) to the file PEM_read(3) and rewrite its description from scratch for precision and conciseness. Plus some minor improvements in the vicinity. Tweaks and OK tb@.

* When X509_ATTRIBUTE_create() receives an invalid NID (e.g., -1), returnschwarze2020-06-041-12/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | failure rather than silently constructing a broken X509_ATTRIBUTE object that might cause NULL pointer accesses later on. This matters because X509_ATTRIBUTE_create() is used by documented API functions like PKCS7_add_attribute(3) and the NID comes straight from the user. This fixes a bug found while working on documentation. OK tb@ and "thanks" bluhm@

| | | | | | | | | No comment when shown around among LibreSSL devs except "very very strange function" from beck@ and "cannot say much about it" from tb@. If needed, this can be further polished in the tree, review is still welcome.
