| =head1 NAME
 | |
| 
 | |
| PKCS7_sign_add_signer - add a signer PKCS7 signed data structure
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS
 | |
| 
 | |
|  #include <openssl/pkcs7.h>
 | |
| 
 | |
|  PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO *PKCS7_sign_add_signer(PKCS7 *p7, X509 *signcert,
 | |
|                                           EVP_PKEY *pkey, const EVP_MD *md, int flags);
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION
 | |
| 
 | |
| PKCS7_sign_add_signer() adds a signer with certificate B<signcert> and private
 | |
| key B<pkey> using message digest B<md> to a PKCS7 signed data structure
 | |
| B<p7>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The PKCS7 structure should be obtained from an initial call to PKCS7_sign()
 | |
| with the flag B<PKCS7_PARTIAL> set or in the case or re-signing a valid PKCS7
 | |
| signed data structure.
 | |
| 
 | |
| If the B<md> parameter is B<NULL> then the default digest for the public
 | |
| key algorithm will be used.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Unless the B<PKCS7_REUSE_DIGEST> flag is set the returned PKCS7 structure
 | |
| is not complete and must be finalized either by streaming (if applicable) or
 | |
| a call to PKCS7_final().
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 NOTES
 | |
| 
 | |
| The main purpose of this function is to provide finer control over a PKCS#7
 | |
| signed data structure where the simpler PKCS7_sign() function defaults are
 | |
| not appropriate. For example if multiple signers or non default digest
 | |
| algorithms are needed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Any of the following flags (ored together) can be passed in the B<flags>
 | |
| parameter.
 | |
| 
 | |
| If B<PKCS7_REUSE_DIGEST> is set then an attempt is made to copy the content
 | |
| digest value from the PKCS7 structure: to add a signer to an existing structure.
 | |
| An error occurs if a matching digest value cannot be found to copy. The
 | |
| returned PKCS7 structure will be valid and finalized when this flag is set.
 | |
| 
 | |
| If B<PKCS7_PARTIAL> is set in addition to B<PKCS7_REUSE_DIGEST> then the
 | |
| B<PKCS7_SIGNER_INO> structure will not be finalized so additional attributes
 | |
| can be added. In this case an explicit call to PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO_sign() is
 | |
| needed to finalize it.
 | |
| 
 | |
| If B<PKCS7_NOCERTS> is set the signer's certificate will not be included in the
 | |
| PKCS7 structure, the signer's certificate must still be supplied in the
 | |
| B<signcert> parameter though. This can reduce the size of the signature if the
 | |
| signers certificate can be obtained by other means: for example a previously
 | |
| signed message.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The signedData structure includes several PKCS#7 authenticatedAttributes
 | |
| including the signing time, the PKCS#7 content type and the supported list of
 | |
| ciphers in an SMIMECapabilities attribute. If B<PKCS7_NOATTR> is set then no
 | |
| authenticatedAttributes will be used. If B<PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP> is set then just
 | |
| the SMIMECapabilities are omitted.
 | |
| 
 | |
| If present the SMIMECapabilities attribute indicates support for the following
 | |
| algorithms: triple DES, 128 bit RC2, 64 bit RC2, DES and 40 bit RC2. If any of
 | |
| these algorithms is disabled then it will not be included.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| PKCS7_sign_add_signers() returns an internal pointer to the PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
 | |
| structure just added, this can be used to set additional attributes
 | |
| before it is finalized.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES
 | |
| 
 | |
| PKCS7_sign_add_signers() returns an internal pointer to the PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
 | |
| structure just added or NULL if an error occurs.
