give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the

"DESCRIPTION"
Header "DESCRIPTION" \s-1ASN.1\s0 data structures can be associated with an \s-1ASN1_AUX\s0 object to supply additional information about the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure. An \s-1ASN1_AUX\s0 structure is associated with the structure during the definition of the \s-1ASN.1\s0 template. For example an \s-1ASN1_AUX\s0 structure will be associated by using one of the various \s-1ASN.1\s0 template definition macros that supply auxiliary information such as \fBASN1_SEQUENCE_enc(), ASN1_SEQUENCE_ref(), ASN1_SEQUENCE_cb_const_cb(), \fBASN1_SEQUENCE_const_cb(), ASN1_SEQUENCE_cb() or ASN1_NDEF_SEQUENCE_cb().

An \s-1ASN1_AUX\s0 structure contains the following information.

"app_data" 4
Item "app_data" Arbitrary application data
"flags" 4
Item "flags" Flags which indicate the auxiliarly functionality supported. .Sp The \s-1ASN1_AFLG_REFCOUNT\s0 flag indicates that objects support reference counting. .Sp The \s-1ASN1_AFLG_ENCODING\s0 flag indicates that the original encoding of the object will be saved. .Sp The \s-1ASN1_AFLG_BROKEN\s0 flag is a work around for broken encoders where the sequence length value may not be correct. This should generally not be used. .Sp The \s-1ASN1_AFLG_CONST_CB\s0 flag indicates that the \*(L"const\*(R" form of the \fB\s-1ASN1_AUX\s0 callback should be used in preference to the non-const form.
"ref_offset" 4
Item "ref_offset" If the \s-1ASN1_AFLG_REFCOUNT\s0 flag is set then this value is assumed to be an offset into the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 structure where a \s-1CRYPTO_REF_COUNT\s0 may be found for the purposes of reference counting.
"ref_lock" 4
Item "ref_lock" If the \s-1ASN1_AFLG_REFCOUNT\s0 flag is set then this value is assumed to be an offset into the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 structure where a \s-1CRYPTO_RWLOCK\s0 may be found for the purposes of reference counting.
"asn1_cb" 4
Item "asn1_cb" A callback that will be invoked at various points during the processing of the the \s-1ASN1_VALLUE\s0. See below for further details.
"enc_offset" 4
Item "enc_offset" Offset into the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 object where the original encoding of the object will be saved if the \s-1ASN1_AFLG_ENCODING\s0 flag has been set.
"asn1_const_cb" 4
Item "asn1_const_cb" A callback that will be invoked at various points during the processing of the the \s-1ASN1_VALLUE\s0. This is used in preference to the asn1_cb callback if the \s-1ASN1_AFLG_CONST_CB\s0 flag is set. See below for further details.

During the processing of an \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 object the callbacks set via \fIasn1_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 \fB\s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 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.

"\s-1ASN1_OP_NEW_PRE\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_NEW_PRE" Invoked when processing a \s-1CHOICE\s0, \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure prior to an \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 object being allocated. The callback may allocate the \fB\s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 itself and store it in *pval. If it does so it should return 2 from the callback. On error it should return 0.
"\s-1ASN1_OP_NEW_POST\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_NEW_POST" Invoked when processing a \s-1CHOICE\s0, \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure after an \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 object has been allocated. The allocated object is in \fI*pval.
"\s-1ASN1_OP_FREE_PRE\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_FREE_PRE" Invoked when processing a \s-1CHOICE\s0, \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure immediately before an \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 is freed. If the callback originally constructed the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 via \s-1ASN1_OP_NEW_PRE\s0 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.
"\s-1ASN1_OP_FREE_POST\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_FREE_POST" Invoked when processing a \s-1CHOICE\s0, \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure immediately after \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 sub-structures are freed.
"\s-1ASN1_OP_D2I_PRE\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_D2I_PRE" Invoked when processing a \s-1CHOICE\s0, \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure immediately before a \*(L"d2i\*(R" operation for the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0.
"\s-1ASN1_OP_D2I_POST\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_D2I_POST" Invoked when processing a \s-1CHOICE\s0, \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure immediately after a \*(L"d2i\*(R" operation for the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0.
"\s-1ASN1_OP_I2D_PRE\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_I2D_PRE" Invoked when processing a \s-1CHOICE\s0, \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure immediately before a \*(L"i2d\*(R" operation for the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0.
"\s-1ASN1_OP_I2D_POST\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_I2D_POST" Invoked when processing a \s-1CHOICE\s0, \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure immediately after a \*(L"i2d\*(R" operation for the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0.
"\s-1ASN1_OP_PRINT_PRE\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_PRINT_PRE" Invoked when processing a \s-1SEQUENCE\s0 or \s-1NDEF_SEQUENCE\s0 structure immediately before printing the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0. The exarg argument will be a pointer to an \fB\s-1ASN1_PRINT_ARG\s0 structure (see below).
"\s-1ASN1_OP_PRINT_POST\s0" 4

"\s-1ASN1_OP_STREAM_POST\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_STREAM_POST" Invoked immediately after streaming the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 data using indefinite length encoding. The exarg argument will be a pointer to a \s-1ASN1_STREAM_ARG\s0 structure (see below).
"\s-1ASN1_OP_DETACHED_PRE\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_DETACHED_PRE" Invoked immediately prior to processing the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 data as a \*(L"detached\*(R" value (as used in \s-1CMS\s0 and \s-1PKCS7\s0). The exarg argument will be a pointer to a \fB\s-1ASN1_STREAM_ARG\s0 structure (see below).
"\s-1ASN1_OP_DETACHED_POST\s0" 4
Item "ASN1_OP_DETACHED_POST" Invoked immediately after processing the \s-1ASN1_VALUE\s0 data as a \*(L"detached\*(R" value (as used in \s-1CMS\s0 and \s-1PKCS7\s0). The exarg argument will be a pointer to a \fB\s-1ASN1_STREAM_ARG\s0 structure (see below).
