.Vt Validity
structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.1.
It is used inside the
.Vt X509_CINF
object and holds the validity period of the certificate.
.Fn X509_VAL_free
frees
.Fa val .
.Pp
.Fn X509_CERT_AUX_new
allocates and initializes an empty
.Vt X509_CERT_AUX
structure.
It can be used inside an
.Vt X509
object to hold optional non-standard auxiliary data appended to a
certificate, for example friendly alias names and trust data.
.Fn X509_CERT_AUX_free
frees
