  78. .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
  79. The Distinguishing ID is defined in FIPS 196 as follows:
  80. .IP "\fIDistinguishing identifier\fR" 4
  81. .IX Item "Distinguishing identifier"
  82. Information which unambiguously distinguishes
  83. an entity in the authentication process.
  84. .PP
  85. The SM2 signature algorithm requires a Distinguishing ID value when generating
  86. and verifying a signature, but the Ddistinguishing ID may also find other uses.
  87. In the context of SM2, the Distinguishing ID is often referred to as the "SM2
  88. ID".
  89. .PP
  90. For the purpose off verifying a certificate or a certification request, a
  91. Distinguishing ID may be attached to it, so functions like \fBX509_verify\fR\|(3)
  92. or \fBX509_REQ_verify\fR\|(3) have easy access to that identity for signature
  93. verification.
  94. .PP
  95. \&\fBX509_get0_distinguishing_id()\fR gets the Distinguishing ID value of a certificate
  96. \&\fBx\fR by returning an \fBASN1_OCTET_STRING\fR object which should not be freed by
  97. the caller.
  98. .PP
  99. \&\fBX509_set0_distinguishing_id()\fR assigns \fBdistid\fR to the certificate \fBx\fR.
  100. Calling this function transfers the memory management of the value to the X509
  101. object, and therefore the value that has been passed in should not be freed by
  102. the caller after this function has been called.
  103. .PP
  104. \&\fBX509_REQ_get0_distinguishing_id()\fR and \fBX509_REQ_set0_distinguishing_id()\fR
  105. have the same functionality as \fBX509_get0_distinguishing_id()\fR and
  106. \&\fBX509_set0_distinguishing_id()\fR except that they deal with \fBX509_REQ\fR
  107. objects instead of \fBX509\fR.
  108. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  109. .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
  110. \&\fBX509_set0_distinguishing_id()\fR and \fBX509_REQ_set0_distinguishing_id()\fR do not
  111. return a value.
  112. .SH "SEE ALSO"
