.Sh DESCRIPTION
A time-stamping authority is a trusted third party which allows its
clients to prove that specific data existed at a particular point
in time.
Clients send time-stamping requests to the time-stamping server,
which returns time-stamp tokens to the clients.
.Pp
.Fn TS_REQ_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt TS_REQ
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt TimeStampReq
structure defined in RFC 3161 section 2.4.1.
It can hold a hash of the datum to be time-stamped and some
auxiliary, optional information.
.Fn TS_REQ_free
frees
.Fa req .
.Pp
.Fn TS_RESP_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt TS_RESP
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt TimeStampResp
structure defined in RFC 3161 section 2.4.2.
It can hold status information and a time-stamp token.
.Fn TS_RESP_free
frees
.Fa resp .
.Pp
.Fn TS_STATUS_INFO_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt TS_STATUS_INFO
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt PKIStatusInfo
structure defined in RFC 3161 section 2.4.2.
It is used inside
.Vt TS_RESP
and describes the outcome of one time-stamp request.
.Fn TS_STATUS_INFO_free
frees
.Fa status .
.Pp
.Fn TS_TST_INFO_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt TS_TST_INFO
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt TSTInfo
structure defined in RFC 3161 section 2.4.2.
It is the time-stamp token included in a
.Vt TS_RESP
object in case of success, and it can hold the hash of the datum
copied from a request, the time of generation, and some auxiliary
information.
.Fn TS_TST_INFO_free
frees
.Fa token .
.Pp
.Fn TS_ACCURACY_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt TS_ACCURACY
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt Accuracy
structure defined in RFC 3161 section 2.4.2.
It can be used inside a
.Vt TS_TST_INFO
object and indicates the maximum error of the time stated in the token.
.Fn TS_ACCURACY_free
frees
.Fa accuracy .
.Pp
.Fn TS_MSG_IMPRINT_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt TS_MSG_IMPRINT
object, representing an ASN.1
.Vt MessageImprint
structure defined in RFC 3161 section 2.4.1.
It is used inside
.Vt TS_REQ
and
.Vt TS_RESP
objects.
It specifies a hash algorithm and stores the hash value of the datum.
.Fn TS_MSG_IMPRINT_free
frees
.Fa imprint .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn TS_REQ_new ,
.Fn TS_RESP_new ,
.Fn TS_STATUS_INFO_new ,
.Fn TS_TST_INFO_new ,
.Fn TS_ACCURACY_new ,
and
.Fn TS_MSG_IMPRINT_new
return the new
.Vt TS_REQ ,
.Vt TS_RESP ,
.Vt TS_STATUS_INFO ,
.Vt TS_TST_INFO ,
.Vt TS_ACCURACY ,
or
.Vt TS_MSG_IMPRINT
object, respectively, or
.Dv NULL
if an error occurred.

.Sh STANDARDS
RFC 3161: Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Time-Stamp Protocol
.Pp
Note that RFC 3161 has been updated
by RFC 5816: ESSCertIDv2 Update for RFC 3161.
That update allows using the Signing Certificate Attribute Definition
Version 2 according to RFC 5035, but the current implementation
only supports the Signing Certificate Attribute Definition Version
1 according to RFC 2634, and hence only supports RFC 3161, but not
RFC 5816 functionality.
.Sh HISTORY
These functions first appeared in OpenSSL 1.0.0
and have been available since
.Ox 4.9 .
