ASN1_INTEGER_GET(3) Library Functions Manual ASN1_INTEGER_GET(3) NAME ASN1_INTEGER_get_uint64, ASN1_INTEGER_get_int64, ASN1_INTEGER_get, ASN1_INTEGER_set_uint64, ASN1_INTEGER_set_int64, ASN1_INTEGER_set, ASN1_INTEGER_cmp, ASN1_INTEGER_dup, BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER, ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN, ASN1_ENUMERATED_get_int64, ASN1_ENUMERATED_get, ASN1_ENUMERATED_set_int64, ASN1_ENUMERATED_set, BN_to_ASN1_ENUMERATED, ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN - ASN.1 INTEGER and ENUMERATED utilities SYNOPSIS #include int ASN1_INTEGER_get_uint64(uint64_t *out_val, const ASN1_INTEGER *a); int ASN1_INTEGER_get_int64(int64_t *out_val, const ASN1_INTEGER *a); long ASN1_INTEGER_get(const ASN1_INTEGER *a); int ASN1_INTEGER_set_uint64(ASN1_INTEGER *a, uint64_t v); int ASN1_INTEGER_set_int64(ASN1_INTEGER *a, int64_t v); int ASN1_INTEGER_set(ASN1_INTEGER *a, long v); int ASN1_INTEGER_cmp(const ASN1_INTEGER *a1, const ASN1_INTEGER *a2); ASN1_INTEGER * ASN1_INTEGER_dup(const ASN1_INTEGER *a); ASN1_INTEGER * BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER(const BIGNUM *bn, ASN1_INTEGER *ai); BIGNUM * ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN(const ASN1_INTEGER *ai, BIGNUM *bn); int ASN1_ENUMERATED_get_int64(int64_t *out_val, const ASN1_ENUMERATED *a); long ASN1_ENUMERATED_get(const ASN1_ENUMERATED *a); int ASN1_ENUMERATED_set_int64(ASN1_ENUMERATED *a, int64_t v); int ASN1_ENUMERATED_set(ASN1_ENUMERATED *a, long v); ASN1_ENUMERATED * BN_to_ASN1_ENUMERATED(const BIGNUM *bn, ASN1_ENUMERATED *ai); BIGNUM * ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN(const ASN1_ENUMERATED *ai, BIGNUM *bn); DESCRIPTION These functions convert to and from ASN1_INTEGER and ASN1_ENUMERATED objects. ASN1_INTEGER_get_uint64() and ASN1_INTEGER_get_int64() store the value of a in *out_val if successful. The deprecated function ASN1_INTEGER_get() converts a to the long type. ASN1_INTEGER_set_uint64(), ASN1_INTEGER_set_int64(), and ASN1_INTEGER_set() set the type of a to V_ASN1_INTEGER or V_ASN1_NEG_INTEGER depending on the sign of v and set the value of a to v. ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() compares the signed integer numbers represented by a1 and a2. ASN1_INTEGER_dup() does exactly the same as ASN1_STRING_dup(3) without providing any type safety, except that it fails if the ASN1_STRING_length(3) of a is 0. BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER() converts bn to an ASN1_INTEGER. If ai is NULL, a new ASN1_INTEGER object is returned. Otherwise, the existing object ai is used instead. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN() converts ai into a BIGNUM. If bn is NULL, a new BIGNUM object is returned. Otherwise, the existing object bn is used instead. ASN1_ENUMERATED_get_int64(), ASN1_ENUMERATED_get(), ASN1_ENUMERATED_set_int64(), ASN1_ENUMERATED_set(), BN_to_ASN1_ENUMERATED(), and ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN() behave like their ASN1_INTEGER counterparts except that they operate on an ASN1_ENUMERATED object. RETURN VALUES ASN1_INTEGER_get_uint64() returns 1 in case of success or 0 if a is not of the type V_ASN1_INTEGER or greater than UINT64_MAX. ASN1_INTEGER_get_int64() returns 1 in case of success or 0 if a is not of the type V_ASN1_INTEGER or V_ASN1_NEG_INTEGER, less than INT64_MIN, or greater than INT64_MAX. ASN1_INTEGER_get() and ASN1_ENUMERATED_get() return the converted value, 0 if a is NULL, or -1 on error, which is ambiguous because -1 is a legitimate value for an ASN1_INTEGER. ASN1_INTEGER_set_uint64(), ASN1_INTEGER_set_int64(), ASN1_INTEGER_set(), ASN1_ENUMERATED_set_int64(), and ASN1_ENUMERATED_set() return 1 for success or 0 for failure. They only fail if a memory allocation error occurs. ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() returns a value greater than, equal to, or less than 0 if the signed integer number represented by a1 is greater than, equal to, or less than the signed integer number represented by a2, respectively. ASN1_INTEGER_dup() returns a pointer to a newly allocated ASN1_STRING structure or NULL if a is a NULL pointer, if the length of a is 0, or if memory allocation fails. BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER() and BN_to_ASN1_ENUMERATED() return an ASN1_INTEGER or ASN1_ENUMERATED object, respectively, or NULL if an error occurs. They only fail due to memory allocation errors. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN() and ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN() return a BIGNUM object of NULL if an error occurs. They can fail if the passed type is incorrect (due to a programming error) or due to memory allocation failures. SEE ALSO ASN1_INTEGER_new(3), ASN1_STRING_length(3) HISTORY ASN1_INTEGER_set() first appeared in SSLeay 0.5.1. ASN1_INTEGER_get(), BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER(), and ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN() first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.0. ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() and ASN1_INTEGER_dup() first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.5. These functions have been available since OpenBSD 2.3. ASN1_ENUMERATED_get(), ASN1_ENUMERATED_set(), BN_to_ASN1_ENUMERATED(), and ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN() first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.2b and have been available since OpenBSD 2.6. ASN1_INTEGER_get_uint64(), ASN1_INTEGER_get_int64(), ASN1_INTEGER_set_uint64(), ASN1_INTEGER_set_int64(), ASN1_ENUMERATED_get_int64(), and ASN1_ENUMERATED_set_int64() first appeared in OpenSSL 1.1.0 and have been available since OpenBSD 7.2. CAVEATS In general an ASN1_INTEGER or ASN1_ENUMERATED type can contain an integer of almost arbitrary size and so cannot always be represented by a C long type. The ambiguous return values of ASN1_INTEGER_get() and ASN1_ENUMERATED_get() imply that these functions should be avoided if possible. BUGS ASN1_INTEGER_cmp(), ASN1_INTEGER_dup(), and ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN() do not check whether their arguments are really of the type V_ASN1_INTEGER or V_ASN1_NEG_INTEGER. They may report success even if their arguments are of a wrong type. Consequently, even in case of success, the return value of ASN1_INTEGER_dup() is not guaranteed to be of the type V_ASN1_INTEGER or V_ASN1_NEG_INTEGER either. Similarly, ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN() does not check whether its argument is really of the type V_ASN1_ENUMERATED or V_ASN1_NEG_ENUMERATED and may report success even if the argument is of a wrong type.
