This can be used in combination with X509_STORE_CTX_set_error() to set the
depth at which an error condition was detected.
-X509_STORE_CTX_get0_cert() returns the leaf certificate being verified.
-
X509_STORE_CTX_get_current_cert() returns the certificate in B<ctx> which
caused the error or B<NULL> if no certificate is relevant.
+X509_STORE_CTX_set_current_cert() sets the certificate B<x> in B<ctx> which
+caused the error.
+This value is not intended to remain valid for very long, and remains owned by
+the caller.
+It may be examined by a verification callback invoked to handle each error
+encountered during chain verification and is no longer required after such a
+callback.
+If a callback wishes the save the certificate for use after it returns, it
+needs to increment its reference count via L<X509_up_ref(3)>.
+Once such a I<saved> certificate is no longer needed it can be freed with
+L<X509_free(3)>.
+
+X509_STORE_CTX_get0_cert() returns the leaf certificate being verified.
+
X509_STORE_CTX_get1_chain() returns a complete validate chain if a previous
call to X509_verify_cert() is successful. If the call to X509_verify_cert()
is B<not> successful the returned chain may be incomplete or invalid. The
