.Sh DESCRIPTION
Using the CRL distribution point extension, a certificate can specify
where to obtain certificate revocation lists that might later revoke it.
.Pp
.Fn DIST_POINT_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt DIST_POINT
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt DistributionPoint
structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.13.
It can hold issuer names, distribution point names, and reason flags.
.Fn DIST_POINT_free
frees
.Fa dp .
.Pp
.Fn CRL_DIST_POINTS_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt CRL_DIST_POINTS
object, which is a
.Vt STACK_OF(DIST_POINT)
and represents the ASN.1
.Vt CRLDistributionPoints
structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.13.
It can be used as an extension in
.Vt X509
and in
.Vt X509_CRL
objects.
.Fn CRL_DIST_POINTS_free
frees
.Fa dps .
.Pp
.Fn DIST_POINT_NAME_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt DIST_POINT_NAME
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt DistributionPointName
structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.13.
It is used by the
.Vt DIST_POINT
and
.Vt ISSUING_DIST_POINT
objects and can hold multiple names, each representing a different
way to obtain the same CRL.
.Fn DIST_POINT_NAME_free
frees
.Fa name .
.Pp
.Fn ISSUING_DIST_POINT_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt ISSUING_DIST_POINT
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt IssuingDistributionPoint
structure defined in RFC 5280 section 5.2.5.
Using this extension, a CRL can specify which distribution point
it was issued from and which kinds of certificates and revocation
reasons it covers.
.Fn ISSUING_DIST_POINT_free
frees
.Fa dp .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn DIST_POINT_new ,
.Fn CRL_DIST_POINTS_new ,
.Fn DIST_POINT_NAME_new ,
and
.Fn ISSUING_DIST_POINT_new
return the new
.Vt DIST_POINT ,
.Vt CRL_DIST_POINTS ,
.Vt DIST_POINT_NAME ,
or
.Vt ISSUING_DIST_POINT
object, respectively, or
.Dv NULL
if an error occurs.
