=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/x509.h>

 unsigned long X509_NAME_hash_ex(const X509_NAME *x, OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx,
                                 const char *propq, int *ok);

 X509_NAME *X509_get_issuer_name(const X509 *x);
 int X509_set_issuer_name(X509 *x, const X509_NAME *name);
 unsigned long X509_issuer_name_hash(X509 *x);

 X509_NAME *X509_REQ_get_subject_name(const X509_REQ *req);

 X509_NAME *X509_CRL_get_issuer(const X509_CRL *crl);
 int X509_CRL_set_issuer_name(X509_CRL *x, const X509_NAME *name);

 #include <openssl/x509_acert.h>

 X509_NAME *X509_ACERT_get0_issuerName(const X509_ACERT *x);
 int X509_ACERT_set1_issuerName(X509_ACERT *x, const X509_NAME *name);

The following macro has been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:

 #define X509_NAME_hash(x) X509_NAME_hash_ex(x, NULL, NULL, NULL)

=head1 DESCRIPTION

X509_NAME_hash_ex() returns a hash value of name I<x> or 0 on failure,
using any given library context I<libctx> and property query I<propq>.
The I<ok> result argument may be NULL
or else is used to return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
Failure may happen on malloc error or if no SHA1 implementation is available.

X509_NAME_hash() returns a hash value of name I<x> or 0 on failure,
using the default library context and default property query.

X509_get_subject_name() returns the subject name of certificate I<x>. The
returned value is an internal pointer which B<MUST NOT> be freed.

X509_set_subject_name() sets the issuer name of certificate I<x> to
I<name>. The I<name> parameter is copied internally and should be freed
up when it is no longer needed.

X509_subject_name_hash() returns a hash value of the subject name of
certificate I<x>.

X509_get_issuer_name(), X509_set_issuer_name(), and X509_issuer_name_hash()
are identical to
X509_get_subject_name(), X509_set_subject_name(), and X509_subject_name_hash()
except they relate to the issuer name of I<x>.

Similarly X509_REQ_get_subject_name(), X509_REQ_set_subject_name(),
X509_ACERT_get0_issuerName(), X509_ACERT_set1_issuerName(),
X509_CRL_get_issuer() and X509_CRL_set_issuer_name() get or set the subject
or issuer names of certificate requests of CRLs respectively.

Since attribute certificates do not have a subject name, only the issuer name
can be set.  For details on setting X509_ACERT holder identities, see
L<X509_ACERT_set0_holder_entityName(3)>.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

X509_get_subject_name(), X509_get_issuer_name(), X509_REQ_get_subject_name()
X509_ACERT_get0_issuerName() and X509_CRL_get_issuer() return
an B<X509_NAME> pointer.

X509_NAME_hash_ex(), X509_NAME_hash(),
X509_subject_name_hash() and X509_issuer_name_hash()
return the first four bytes of the SHA1 hash value,
converted to B<unsigned long> in little endian order,
or 0 on failure.

X509_set_subject_name(), X509_set_issuer_name(), X509_REQ_set_subject_name(),
X509_ACERT_get0_issuerName() and X509_CRL_set_issuer_name() return 1 for
success and 0 for failure.

=head1 BUGS

In case X509_NAME_hash(), X509_subject_name_hash(), or X509_issuer_name_hash()
returns 0 it remains unclear if this is the real hash value or due to failure.
Better use X509_NAME_hash_ex() instead.

=head1 HISTORY

X509_REQ_get_subject_name() is a function in OpenSSL 1.1.0 and a macro in
earlier versions.

X509_CRL_get_issuer() is a function in OpenSSL 1.1.0. It was previously
added in OpenSSL 1.0.0 as a macro.

X509_NAME_hash() was turned into a macro and deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
