+The verification of certificates can be controlled by a set of logically
+or'ed \fBmode\fR flags:
+.Ip "\s-1SSL_VERIFY_NONE\s0" 4
+.IX Item "SSL_VERIFY_NONE"
+\&\fBServer mode:\fR the server will not send a client certificate request to the
+client, so the client will not send a certificate.
+.Sp
+\&\fBClient mode:\fR if not using an anonymous cipher (by default disabled), the
+server will send a certificate which will be checked. The result of the
+certificate verification process can be checked after the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake
+using the SSL_get_verify_result(3) function.
+The handshake will be continued regardless of the verification result.
+.Ip "\s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0" 4
+.IX Item "SSL_VERIFY_PEER"
+\&\fBServer mode:\fR the server sends a client certificate request to the client.
+The certificate returned (if any) is checked. If the verification process
+fails, the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake is
+immediately terminated with an alert message containing the reason for
+the verification failure.
+The behaviour can be controlled by the additional
+\&\s-1SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT\s0 and \s-1SSL_VERIFY_CLIENT_ONCE\s0 flags.
+.Sp
+\&\fBClient mode:\fR the server certificate is verified. If the verification process
+fails, the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake is
+immediately terminated with an alert message containing the reason for
+the verification failure. If no server certificate is sent, because an
+anonymous cipher is used, \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 is ignored.
+.Ip "\s-1SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT\s0" 4
+.IX Item "SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT"
+\&\fBServer mode:\fR if the client did not return a certificate, the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0
+handshake is immediately terminated with a \*(L"handshake failure\*(R" alert.
+This flag must be used together with \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0.
+.Sp
+\&\fBClient mode:\fR ignored
+.Ip "\s-1SSL_VERIFY_CLIENT_ONCE\s0" 4
+.IX Item "SSL_VERIFY_CLIENT_ONCE"
+\&\fBServer mode:\fR only request a client certificate on the initial \s-1TLS/SSL\s0
+handshake. Do not ask for a client certificate again in case of a
+renegotiation. This flag must be used together with \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0.
+.Sp
+\&\fBClient mode:\fR ignored
+.PP
+Exactly one of the \fBmode\fR flags \s-1SSL_VERIFY_NONE\s0 and \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 must be
+set at any time.
+.PP
+The actual verification procedure is performed either using the built-in
+verification procedure or using another application provided verification
+function set with
+SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(3).
+The following descriptions apply in the case of the built-in procedure. An
+application provided procedure also has access to the verify depth information
+and the \fIverify_callback()\fR function, but the way this information is used
+may be different.
+.PP
+\&\fISSL_CTX_set_verify_depth()\fR and \fISSL_set_verify_depth()\fR set the limit up
+to which depth certificates in a chain are used during the verification
+procedure. If the certificate chain is longer than allowed, the certificates
+above the limit are ignored. Error messages are generated as if these
+certificates would not be present, most likely a
+X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY will be issued.
+The depth count is \*(L"level 0:peer certificate\*(R", \*(L"level 1: \s-1CA\s0 certificate\*(R",
+\&\*(L"level 2: higher level \s-1CA\s0 certificate\*(R", and so on. Setting the maximum
+depth to 2 allows the levels 0, 1, and 2. The default depth limit is 9,
+allowing for the peer certificate and additional 9 \s-1CA\s0 certificates.
+.PP
+The \fBverify_callback\fR function is used to control the behaviour when the
+\&\s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 flag is set. It must be supplied by the application and
+receives two arguments: \fBpreverify_ok\fR indicates, whether the verification of
+the certificate in question was passed (preverify_ok=1) or not
+(preverify_ok=0). \fBx509_ctx\fR is a pointer to the complete context used
+for the certificate chain verification.
+.PP
+The certificate chain is checked starting with the deepest nesting level
+(the root \s-1CA\s0 certificate) and worked upward to the peer's certificate.
+At each level signatures and issuer attributes are checked. Whenever
+a verification error is found, the error number is stored in \fBx509_ctx\fR
+and \fBverify_callback\fR is called with \fBpreverify_ok\fR=0. By applying
+X509_CTX_store_* functions \fBverify_callback\fR can locate the certificate
+in question and perform additional steps (see \s-1EXAMPLES\s0). If no error is
+found for a certificate, \fBverify_callback\fR is called with \fBpreverify_ok\fR=1
+before advancing to the next level.
+.PP
+The return value of \fBverify_callback\fR controls the strategy of the further
+verification process. If \fBverify_callback\fR returns 0, the verification
+process is immediately stopped with \*(L"verification failed\*(R" state. If
+\&\s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 is set, a verification failure alert is sent to the peer and
+the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake is terminated. If \fBverify_callback\fR returns 1,
+the verification process is continued. If \fBverify_callback\fR always returns
+1, the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake will never be terminated because of this application
+experiencing a verification failure. The calling process can however
+retrieve the error code of the last verification error using
+SSL_get_verify_result(3) or by maintaining its
+own error storage managed by \fBverify_callback\fR.
+.PP
+If no \fBverify_callback\fR is specified, the default callback will be used.
+Its return value is identical to \fBpreverify_ok\fR, so that any verification
+failure will lead to a termination of the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake with an
+alert message, if \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 is set.
+.SH "BUGS"
+.IX Header "BUGS"
+In client mode, it is not checked whether the \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 flag
+is set, but whether \s-1SSL_VERIFY_NONE\s0 is not set. This can lead to
+unexpected behaviour, if the \s-1SSL_VERIFY_PEER\s0 and \s-1SSL_VERIFY_NONE\s0 are not
+used as required (exactly one must be set at any time).
+.PP
+The certificate verification depth set with SSL[_CTX]\fI_verify_depth()\fR
+stops the verification at a certain depth. The error message produced
+will be that of an incomplete certificate chain and not
+X509_V_ERR_CERT_CHAIN_TOO_LONG as may be expected.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+The SSL*_set_verify*() functions do not provide diagnostic information.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.IX Header "EXAMPLES"
+The following code sequence realizes an example \fBverify_callback\fR function
+that will always continue the \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 handshake regardless of verification
+failure, if wished. The callback realizes a verification depth limit with
+more informational output.
+.PP
+All verification errors are printed, informations about the certificate chain
+are printed on request.
+The example is realized for a server that does allow but not require client
+certificates.
+.PP
+The example makes use of the ex_data technique to store application data
+into/retrieve application data from the \s-1SSL\s0 structure
+(see SSL_get_ex_new_index(3),
+SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx(3)).
