Subject: In x509.h rev. 1.32 2018/02/20 17:09:20, jsing@ provided
X-Git-Url: http://artulab.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b0e81980ef89dd2777f637bdbcb668865b45d38a;p=openbsd

In x509.h rev. 1.32 2018/02/20 17:09:20, jsing@ provided
X509_NAME_get0_der(3).  Document it without using anything
from the existing OpenSSL X509_NAME_get0_der(3) manual page
because that page fails to mention the similarity to i2d_X509_NAME(3)
and also fails to explain how both differ, likely causing users
to pick the wrong one for their purposes.
