		int()(void , mbedtls_x509_crt , int, uint32_t )	f_vrfy,
		void *	p_vrfy
	)

Verify the certificate signature.

The verify callback is a user-supplied callback that can clear / modify / add flags for a certificate. If set, the verification callback is called for each certificate in the chain (from the trust-ca down to the presented crt). The parameters for the callback are: (void *parameter, mbedtls_x509_crt *crt, int certificate_depth, int *flags). With the flags representing current flags for that specific certificate and the certificate depth from the bottom (Peer cert depth = 0).

All flags left after returning from the callback are also returned to the application. The function should return 0 for anything but a fatal error.

Note:: In case verification failed, the results can be displayed using mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_info(); Same as mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile() with the default security profile.

Parameters:

crt	a certificate to be verified
trust_ca	the trusted CA chain
ca_crl	the CRL chain for trusted CA's
cn	expected Common Name (can be set to NULL if the CN must not be verified)
flags	result of the verification
f_vrfy	verification function
p_vrfy	verification parameter

Returns:: 0 if successful or MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_CERT_VERIFY_FAILED in which case *flags will have one or more MBEDTLS_X509_BADCERT_XXX or MBEDTLS_X509_BADCRL_XXX flags set, or another error in case of a fatal error encountered during the verification process.

Parameters:

Returns:: The length of the string written (not including the terminated nul byte), or a negative error code.

Definition at line 1494 of file x509_crt.c.

		int()(void , mbedtls_x509_crt , int, uint32_t )	f_vrfy,
		void *	p_vrfy
	)

Verify the certificate signature according to profile.

Note:: Same as mbedtls_x509_crt_verify(), but with explicit security profile.; The restrictions on keys (RSA minimum size, allowed curves for ECDSA) apply to all certificates: trusted root, intermediate CAs if any, and end entity certificate.

Parameters:

crt	a certificate to be verified
trust_ca	the trusted CA chain
ca_crl	the CRL chain for trusted CA's
profile	security profile for verification
