openssl实现了标准的x509v3数字证书，其源码在crypto/x509和crypto/x509v3中。其中x509目录实现了数字证书以及证书申请相关的各种函数，包括了X509和X509_REQ结构的设置、读取、打印和比较；数字证书的验证、摘要；各种公钥的导入导出等功能。x509v3目录主要实现了数字证书扩展项相关的函数。
在进行身份认证时，首先要对发送给服务器进行认证的x509证书有效性进行验证，在Openssl中，可以用一个API接口可以实现：int X509_verify_cert(X509_STORE_CTX *ctx);
接口中形参是X509_STORE_CTX（X509证书库上下文）类型，在X509证书库上下文中，存在一个X509证书库和一个待验证的X509证书，可以加入信任的证书链，也可以加入CRL证书链（证书撤销列表）~
对X509证书有效性进行验证可以由以下几个函数来完成~
X509_STORE_CTX *ctx; //证书上下文
X509_STORE *cert_store; //证书库，存在证书链
X509* x509; //待验证X509证书
ctx = X509_STORE_CTX_new(); X509_STORE_CTX_init(ctx,cert_store,x509,NULL); X509_verify_cert(ctx);//根据返回值可以确认X509证书是否有效，也可以根据X509_STORE_CTX_get_error和X509_verify_cert_error_string函数来确认无效原因 示例程序如下：
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>#include <openssl/evp.h>
#include <openssl/x509.h>#define CERT_PATH "/home/dengaj/Desktop/openssl"

}

}int main()
{OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms();x509_verify();return 0;
}
第二种方法使用
int X509_verify(X509 * x509, EVP_PKEY * pkey); X509 * root;X509 * mycert;//Get root certificate into root
//Get mycert into mycert.//Get the public key.
EVP_PKEY * pubkey = X509_get_pubkey(root);//verify. result less than or 0 means not verified or some error.
int result = X509_verify(mycert, pubkey);//free the public key.
EVP_PKEY_free(pubkey);
)
