DESCRIPTION
ASN.1 data structures can be associated with an ASN1_AUX object to
supply additional information about the ASN.1 structure. An ASN1_AUX
structure is associated with the structure during the definition of the
ASN.1 template. For example an ASN1_AUX structure will be associated by
using one of the various ASN.1 template definition macros that supply
auxiliary information such as ASN1_SEQUENCE_enc(), ASN1_SEQUENCE_ref(),
ASN1_SEQUENCE_cb_const_cb(), ASN1_SEQUENCE_const_cb(),
ASN1_SEQUENCE_cb() or ASN1_NDEF_SEQUENCE_cb().
An ASN1_AUX structure contains the following information.
app_data
Arbitrary application data
flags
Flags which indicate the auxiliarly functionality supported.
The ASN1_AFLG_REFCOUNT flag indicates that objects support
generally not be used.
The ASN1_AFLG_CONST_CB flag indicates that the "const" form of the
ASN1_AUX callback should be used in preference to the non-const
form.
ref_offset
If the ASN1_AFLG_REFCOUNT flag is set then this value is assumed to
be an offset into the ASN1_VALUE structure where a CRYPTO_REF_COUNT
may be found for the purposes of reference counting.
ref_lock
If the ASN1_AFLG_REFCOUNT flag is set then this value is assumed to
be an offset into the ASN1_VALUE structure where a CRYPTO_RWLOCK
may be found for the purposes of reference counting.
asn1_cb
A callback that will be invoked at various points during the
processing of the the ASN1_VALLUE. See below for further details.
enc_offset
Offset into the ASN1_VALUE object where the original encoding of
the object will be saved if the ASN1_AFLG_ENCODING flag has been
set.
asn1_const_cb
A callback that will be invoked at various points during the
processing of the the ASN1_VALLUE. This is used in preference to
the asn1_cb callback if the ASN1_AFLG_CONST_CB flag is set. See
below for further details.
During the processing of an ASN1_VALUE object the callbacks set via
asn1_cb or asn1_const_cb will be invoked as a result of various events
indicated via the operation parameter. The value of *in will be the
ASN1_VALUE object being processed based on the template in it. An
additional operation specific parameter may be passed in exarg. The
currently supported operations are as follows. The callbacks should
return a positive value on success or zero on error, unless otherwise
noted below.
ASN1_OP_NEW_PRE
Invoked when processing a CHOICE, SEQUENCE or NDEF_SEQUENCE
structure prior to an ASN1_VALUE object being allocated. The
callback may allocate the ASN1_VALUE itself and store it in *pval.
If it does so it should return 2 from the callback. On error it
should return 0.
ASN1_OP_NEW_POST
Invoked when processing a CHOICE, SEQUENCE or NDEF_SEQUENCE
structure after an ASN1_VALUE object has been allocated. The
allocated object is in *pval.
ASN1_OP_FREE_PRE
Invoked when processing a CHOICE, SEQUENCE or NDEF_SEQUENCE
structure immediately before an ASN1_VALUE is freed. If the
callback originally constructed the ASN1_VALUE via ASN1_OP_NEW_PRE
then it should free it at this point and return 2 from the
callback. Otherwise it should return 1 for success or 0 on error.
ASN1_OP_D2I_POST
Invoked when processing a CHOICE, SEQUENCE or NDEF_SEQUENCE
structure immediately after a "d2i" operation for the ASN1_VALUE.
ASN1_OP_I2D_PRE
Invoked when processing a CHOICE, SEQUENCE or NDEF_SEQUENCE
structure immediately before a "i2d" operation for the ASN1_VALUE.
ASN1_OP_I2D_POST
Invoked when processing a CHOICE, SEQUENCE or NDEF_SEQUENCE
structure immediately after a "i2d" operation for the ASN1_VALUE.
ASN1_OP_PRINT_PRE
Invoked when processing a SEQUENCE or NDEF_SEQUENCE structure
immediately before printing the ASN1_VALUE. The exarg argument will
be a pointer to an ASN1_PRINT_ARG structure (see below).
ASN1_OP_PRINT_POST
Invoked when processing a SEQUENCE or NDEF_SEQUENCE structure
immediately after printing the ASN1_VALUE. The exarg argument will
be a pointer to an ASN1_PRINT_ARG structure (see below).
ASN1_OP_STREAM_PRE
Invoked immediately prior to streaming the ASN1_VALUE data using
indefinite length encoding. The exarg argument will be a pointer to
a ASN1_STREAM_ARG structure (see below).
ASN1_OP_STREAM_POST
Invoked immediately after streaming the ASN1_VALUE data using
indefinite length encoding. The exarg argument will be a pointer to
a ASN1_STREAM_ARG structure (see below).
ASN1_OP_DETACHED_PRE
Invoked immediately prior to processing the ASN1_VALUE data as a
"detached" value (as used in CMS and PKCS7). The exarg argument
will be a pointer to a ASN1_STREAM_ARG structure (see below).
ASN1_OP_DETACHED_POST
Invoked immediately after processing the ASN1_VALUE data as a
"detached" value (as used in CMS and PKCS7). The exarg argument
will be a pointer to a ASN1_STREAM_ARG structure (see below).
ASN1_OP_DUP_PRE
Invoked immediate prior to an ASN1_VALUE being duplicated via a
call to ASN1_item_dup().
ASN1_OP_DUP_POST
Invoked immediate after to an ASN1_VALUE has been duplicated via a
call to ASN1_item_dup().
ASN1_OP_GET0_LIBCTX
Invoked in order to obtain the OSSL_LIB_CTX associated with an
ASN1_VALUE if any. A pointer to an OSSL_LIB_CTX should be stored in
*exarg if such a value exists.
ASN1_OP_GET0_PROPQ
Invoked in order to obtain the property query string associated
with an ASN1_VALUE if any. A pointer to the property query string
ndef_bio
The current number of indent spaces that should be used for
printing this data.
pctx
The context for the ASN1_PCTX operation.
An ASN1_STREAM_ARG object is used during processing of
ASN1_OP_STREAM_PRE, ASN1_OP_STREAM_POST, ASN1_OP_DETACHED_PRE and
ASN1_OP_DETACHED_POST callback operations. It contains the following
information.
out The BIO to stream through
ndef_bio
The BIO with filters appended
boundary
The streaming I/O boundary.
RETURN VALUES
The callbacks return 0 on error and a positive value on success. Some
operations require specific positive success values as noted above.

HISTORY
The ASN1_aux_const_cb() callback and the ASN1_OP_GET0_LIBCTX and
ASN1_OP_GET0_PROPQ operation types were added in OpenSSL 3.0.
