=head1 DESCRIPTION
X509_get0_signature() sets *psig to the signature of x and *palg to the signature algorithm of x. The
values returned are internal pointers which MUST NOT be freed up after the call.
X509_set0_signature() and X509_REQ_set1_signature_algo() are the equivalent setters for the two values of
X509_get0_signature().
X509_get0_tbs_sigalg() returns the signature algorithm in the signed portion of x.
X509_get_signature_nid() returns the NID corresponding to the signature algorithm of x.
X509_REQ_get0_signature(), X509_REQ_get_signature_nid() X509_CRL_get0_signature() and
X509_CRL_get_signature_nid() perform the same function for certificate requests and CRLs.
X509_ACERT_get0_signature(), X509_ACERT_get_signature_nid() and X509_ACERT_get0_info_sigalg() perform the
same function for attribute certificates.
X509_get_signature_info() retrieves information about the signature of certificate x. The NID of the
signing digest is written to *mdnid, the public key algorithm to *pknid, the effective security bits to
*secbits and flag details to *flags. Any of the parameters can be set to NULL if the information is not
required.
X509_SIG_INFO_get() and X509_SIG_INFO_set() get and set information about a signature in an X509_SIG_INFO
structure. They are only used by implementations of algorithms which need to set custom signature
information: most applications will never need to call them.
NOTES
These functions provide lower level access to signatures in certificates where an application wishes to
analyse or generate a signature in a form where X509_sign() et al is not appropriate (for example a non
standard or unsupported format).
The security bits returned by X509_get_signature_info() refers to information available from the
certificate signature (such as the signing digest). In some cases the actual security of the signature is
less because the signing key is less secure: for example a certificate signed using SHA-512 and a 1024
bit RSA key.
RETURN VALUES
X509_get_signature_nid(), X509_REQ_get_signature_nid() and X509_CRL_get_signature_nid() return a NID.
X509_get0_signature(), X509_REQ_get0_signature() and X509_CRL_get0_signature() do not return values.
X509_get_signature_info() returns 1 if the signature information returned is valid or 0 if the
information is not available (e.g. unknown algorithms or malformed parameters).
X509_REQ_set1_signature_algo() returns 0 on success; or 1 on an error (e.g. null ALGO pointer).
X509_REQ_set0_signature does not return an error value.
