Either the +keyidentifier will be set in B<keyid> or B<both> issuer name and serial number +in B<issuer> and B<sno>. + +CMS_SignerInfo_get0_signature() retrieves the signature associated with +B<si> in a pointer to an ASN1_OCTET_STRING structure. This pointer returned +corresponds to the internal signature value if B<si> so it may be read or +modified. + +CMS_SignerInfo_cert_cmp() compares the certificate B<cert> against the signer +identifier B<si>. It returns zero if the comparison is successful and non zero +if not. + +CMS_SignerInfo_set1_signer_cert() sets the signers certificate of B<si> to +B<signer>. + +=head1 NOTES + +The main purpose of these functions is to enable an application to lookup +signers certificates using any appropriate technique when the simpler method +of CMS_verify() is not appropriate. + +In typical usage and application will retrieve all CMS_SignerInfo structures +using CMS_get0_SignerInfo() and retrieve the identifier information using +CMS. It will then obtain the signer certificate by some unspecified means +(or return and error if it cannot be found) and set it using +CMS_SignerInfo_set1_signer_cert(). + +Once all signer certificates have been set CMS_verify() can be used. + +Although CMS_get0_SignerInfos() can return NULL if an error occurs B<or> if +there are no signers this is not a problem in practice because the only +error which can occur is if the B<cms> structure is not of type signedData +due to application error. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +CMS_get0_SignerInfos() returns all CMS_SignerInfo structures, or NULL there +are no signers or an error occurs. + +CMS_SignerInfo_get0_signer_id() returns 1 for success and 0 for failure. + +CMS_SignerInfo_cert_cmp() returns 0 for a successful comparison and non +zero otherwise. + +CMS_SignerInfo_set1_signer_cert() does not return a value. + +Any error can be obtained from L<ERR_get_error(3)> + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<ERR_get_error(3)>, L<CMS_verify(3)> + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2008-2018 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
