+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+These functions manipulate the B<X509_VERIFY_PARAM> structure associated with
+a certificate verification operation. 
+
+The X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags() function sets the flags in B<param> by oring
+it with B<flags>. See the B<VERIFICATION FLAGS> section for a complete
+description of values the B<flags> parameter can take.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_get_flags() returns the flags in B<param>.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_clear_flags() clears the flags B<flags> in B<param>.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_purpose() sets the verification purpose in B<param>
+to B<purpose>. This determines the acceptable purpose of the certificate
+chain, for example SSL client or SSL server.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_trust() sets the trust setting in B<param> to 
+B<trust>.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_time() sets the verification time in B<param> to
+B<t>. Normally the current time is used.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy() enables policy checking (it is disabled
+by default) and adds B<policy> to the acceptable policy set.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_policies() enables policy checking (it is disabled
+by default) and sets the acceptable policy set to B<policies>. Any existing
+policy set is cleared. The B<policies> parameter can be B<NULL> to clear
+an existing policy set.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_depth() sets the maximum verification depth to B<depth>.
+That is the maximum number of untrusted CA certificates that can appear in a
+chain.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags(), X509_VERIFY_PARAM_clear_flags(), 
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_purpose(), X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_trust(),
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy() and X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_policies() return 1
+for success and 0 for failure. 
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_get_flags() returns the current verification flags.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_time() and X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_depth() do not return
+values.
+
+X509_VERIFY_PARAM_get_depth() returns the current verification depth.
+
+=head1 VERIFICATION FLAGS
+
+The verification flags consists of zero or more of the following flags
+ored together.
+
+B<X509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK> enables CRL checking for the certificate chain leaf
+certificate. An error occurs if a suitable CRL cannot be found. 
+
+B<X509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK_ALL> enables CRL checking for the entire certificate
+chain.
+
+B<X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL> disabled critical extension checking. By default
+any unhandled critical extensions in certificates or (if checked) CRLs results
+in a fatal error. If this flag is set unhandled critical extensions are
+ignored. B<WARNING> setting this option for anything other than debugging
+purposes can be a security risk. Finer control over which extensions are
+supported can be performed in the verification callback.
+
+THe B<X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT> flag disables workarounds for some broken
+certificates and makes the verification strictly apply B<X509> rules.
+
+B<X509_V_FLAG_ALLOW_PROXY_CERTS> enables proxy certificate verification.
+
+B<X509_V_FLAG_POLICY_CHECK> enables certificate policy checking, by default
+no policy checking is peformed. Additional information is sent to the 
+verification callback relating to policy checking.
+
+B<X509_V_FLAG_EXPLICIT_POLICY>, B<X509_V_FLAG_INHIBIT_ANY> and
+B<X509_V_FLAG_INHIBIT_MAP> set the B<require explicit policy>, B<inhibit any
+policy> and B<inhibit policy mapping> flags respectively as defined in
+B<RFC3280>. Policy checking is automatically enabled if any of these flags
+are set.
+
+If B<X509_V_FLAG_NOTIFY_POLICY> is set and the policy checking is successful
+a special status code is set to the verification callback. This permits it
+to examine the valid policy tree and perform additional checks or simply
+log it for debugging purposes.
+
+By default some addtional features such as indirect CRLs and CRLs signed by
+different keys are disabled. If B<X509_V_FLAG_EXTENDED_CRL_SUPPORT> is set
+they are enabled.
+
+If B<X509_V_FLAG_USE_DELTAS> ise set delta CRLs (if present) are used to
+determine certificate status. If not set deltas are ignored.
+
+B<X509_V_FLAG_CHECK_SS_SIGNATURE> enables checking of the root CA self signed
+cerificate signature. By default this check is disabled because it doesn't
+add any additional security but in some cases applications might want to
+check the signature anyway. A side effect of not checking the root CA
+signature is that disabled or unsupported message digests on the root CA
+are not treated as fatal errors.
+
+The B<X509_V_FLAG_CB_ISSUER_CHECK> flag enables debugging of certificate
+issuer checks. It is B<not> needed unless you are logging certificate
+verification. If this flag is set then additional status codes will be sent
+to the verification callback and it B<must> be prepared to handle such cases
+without assuming they are hard errors.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The above functions should be used to manipulate verification parameters
+instead of legacy functions which work in specific structures such as
+X509_STORE_CTX_set_flags().
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+Delta CRL checking is currently primitive. Only a single delta can be used and
+(partly due to limitations of B<X509_STORE>) constructed CRLs are not 
+maintained.
+
+If CRLs checking is enable CRLs are expected to be available in the
+corresponding B<X509_STORE> structure. No attempt is made to download
+CRLs from the CRL distribution points extension.
+
+=head1 EXAMPLE
+
+Enable CRL checking when performing certificate verification during SSL 
+connections associated with an B<SSL_CTX> structure B<ctx>:
+
+  X509_VERIFY_PARAM *param;
+  param = X509_VERIFY_PARAM_new();
+  X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags(param, X509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK);
+  SSL_CTX_set1_param(ctx, param);
+  X509_VERIFY_PARAM_free(param);
