| Simon Butcher | 5b331b9 | 2016-01-03 16:14:14 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 29 | * The X.509 module provides X.509 support for reading, writing and verification | 
|  | 30 | * of certificates. | 
|  | 31 | * In summary: | 
|  | 32 | *   - X.509 certificate (CRT) reading (see \c mbedtls_x509_crt_parse(), | 
|  | 33 | *     \c mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der(), \c mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_file()). | 
|  | 34 | *   - X.509 certificate revocation list (CRL) reading (see | 
|  | 35 | *     \c mbedtls_x509_crl_parse(), \c mbedtls_x509_crl_parse_der(), | 
|  | 36 | *     and \c mbedtls_x509_crl_parse_file()). | 
|  | 37 | *   - X.509 certificate signature verification (see \c | 
|  | 38 | *     mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() and \c mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile(). | 
|  | 39 | *   - X.509 certificate writing and certificate request writing (see | 
|  | 40 | *     \c mbedtls_x509write_crt_der() and \c mbedtls_x509write_csr_der()). |

|  | 42 | * This module can be used to build a certificate authority (CA) chain and | 
| Paul Bakker | dcbfdcc | 2013-09-10 16:16:50 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 43 | * verify its signature. It is also used to generate Certificate Signing |
