SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/x509.h>

        unsigned long X509_NAME_hash_ex(const X509_NAME *x, OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx,
                                        const char *propq, int *ok);

        X509_NAME *X509_get_subject_name(const X509 *x);
        int X509_set_subject_name(X509 *x, const X509_NAME *name);
        unsigned long X509_subject_name_hash(X509 *x);

        X509_NAME *X509_get_issuer_name(const X509 *x);
        int X509_set_issuer_name(X509 *x, const X509_NAME *name);
        unsigned long X509_issuer_name_hash(X509 *x);

        X509_NAME *X509_REQ_get_subject_name(const X509_REQ *req);
        int X509_REQ_set_subject_name(X509_REQ *req, const X509_NAME *name);

        X509_NAME *X509_CRL_get_issuer(const X509_CRL *crl);
        int X509_CRL_set_issuer_name(X509_CRL *x, const X509_NAME *name);

       The following macro has been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be hidden entirely by defining
       OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable version value, see openssl_user_macros(7):

        #define X509_NAME_hash(x) X509_NAME_hash_ex(x, NULL, NULL, NULL)

DESCRIPTION

       X509_NAME_hash_ex() returns a hash value of name x or 0 on failure, using any given library context
       libctx and property query propq.  The ok result argument may be NULL or else is used to return 1 for
       success and 0 for failure.  Failure may happen on malloc error or if no SHA1 implementation is available.

       X509_NAME_hash() returns a hash value of name x or 0 on failure, using the default library context and
       default property query.

       X509_get_subject_name() returns the subject name of certificate x. The returned value is an internal
       pointer which MUST NOT be freed.

       X509_set_subject_name() sets the issuer name of certificate x to name. The name parameter is copied
       internally and should be freed up when it is no longer needed.

       X509_subject_name_hash() returns a hash value of the subject name of certificate x.

       X509_get_issuer_name(), X509_set_issuer_name(), and X509_issuer_name_hash() are identical to
       X509_get_subject_name(), X509_set_subject_name(), and X509_subject_name_hash() except they relate to the
       issuer name of x.

       Similarly X509_REQ_get_subject_name(), X509_REQ_set_subject_name(), X509_CRL_get_issuer() and
       X509_CRL_set_issuer_name() get or set the subject or issuer names of certificate requests of CRLs
       respectively.

RETURN VALUES

       X509_get_subject_name(), X509_get_issuer_name(), X509_REQ_get_subject_name() and X509_CRL_get_issuer()
       return an X509_NAME pointer.

       X509_NAME_hash_ex(), X509_NAME_hash(), X509_subject_name_hash() and X509_issuer_name_hash() return the
       first four bytes of the SHA1 hash value, converted to unsigned long in little endian order, or 0 on
       failure.

       X509_set_subject_name(), X509_set_issuer_name(), X509_REQ_set_subject_name() and
       X509_CRL_set_issuer_name() return 1 for success and 0 for failure.

BUGS

       In case X509_NAME_hash(), X509_subject_name_hash(), or X509_issuer_name_hash() returns 0 it remains
       unclear if this is the real hash value or due to failure.  Better use X509_NAME_hash_ex() instead.

HISTORY

       X509_REQ_get_subject_name() is a function in OpenSSL 1.1.0 and a macro in earlier versions.

       X509_CRL_get_issuer() is a function in OpenSSL 1.1.0. It was previously added in OpenSSL 1.0.0 as a
       macro.

       X509_NAME_hash() was turned into a macro and deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
