NAME

pkc_plcy_get_key_certifier_info — Returns information about a key’s certifier

Synopsis

gss_OID policy,
void ∗ keys_handle,
unsigned key_index,
unsigned ca_index,
char ∗∗ certifier_name,
utc_t ∗ certification_start,
utc_t ∗ certification_expiration,
char  ∗ is_crl_valid,
utc_t ∗ last_crl_seen,
utc_t ∗ next_crl_expected);

Parameters

Input

policyThe policy desired. 

keys_handle
A policy specific structure, obtained from a call to pkc_plcy_retrieve_keyinfo(3sec). 

key_indexIndex of the key. 

ca_indexIndex of the certifier about whom information is desired. 

Output

certifier_name
The name of the certifier.

certification_start
Time at which certification by this certifier starts.

certification_expiration
Time at which certification by this certifier ends.

is_crl_valid
If TRUE, there is a certificate revocation list for this certifier.

last_crl_seen
Time at which certificate revocation list was last seen.

next_crl_expected
Time at which next certificate revocation list is expected.

Description

pkc_plcy_get_key_certifier_info(3sec) searches the list of registered policies for implementations of the specified policy. If found, the implementation is opened, if necessary, and its (∗get_key_certifier_info)() function is invoked. Necessary mutex protection around non-thread safe policy implementations is provided. 

Return Values

pkc_s_success
Operation successfully completed.

Errors

Refer to the OSF DCE Problem Determination Guide for complete descriptions of all error messages.
