=head1 NAME
X509_chain_up_ref,
X509_new, X509_free, X509_up_ref - X509 certificate ASN1 allocation functions
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/x509.h>
X509 *X509_new(void);
void X509_free(X509 *a);
int X509_up_ref(X509 *a);
STACK_OF(X509) *X509_chain_up_ref(STACK_OF(X509) *x);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The X509 ASN1 allocation routines, allocate and free an
X509 structure, which represents an X509 certificate.
X509_new() allocates and initializes a X509 structure with reference count
B<1>.
X509_free() decrements the reference count of B<X509> structure B<a> and
frees it up if the reference count is zero. If B<a> is NULL nothing is done.
X509_up_ref() increments the reference count of B<a>.
X509_chain_up_ref() increases the reference count of all certificates in
chain B<x> and returns a copy of the stack.
=head1 NOTES
The function X509_up_ref() if useful if a certificate structure is being
used by several different operations each of which will free it up after
use: this avoids the need to duplicate the entire certificate structure.
The function X509_chain_up_ref() doesn't just up the reference count of
each certificate it also returns a copy of the stack, using sk_X509_dup(),
but it serves a similar purpose: the returned chain persists after the
original has been freed.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
If the allocation fails, X509_new() returns B<NULL> and sets an error
code that can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
X509_up_ref() returns 1 for success and 0 for failure.
X509_chain_up_ref() returns a copy of the stack or B<NULL> if an error
occurred.
