2014-09-09ssl, public_key: Add new option partial_chainIngela Anderton Andin
Check that the certificate chain ends with a trusted ROOT CA e.i. a self-signed certificate, but provide an option partial_chain to enable the application to define an intermediat CA as trusted. TLS RFC says: "unknown_ca A valid certificate chain or partial chain was received, but the certificate was not accepted because the CA certificate could not be located or couldn't be matched with a known, trusted CA. This message is always fatal." and also states: "certificate_list This is a sequence (chain) of certificates. The sender's certificate MUST come first in the list. Each following certificate MUST directly certify the one preceding it. Because certificate validation requires that root keys be distributed independently, the self-signed certificate that specifies the root certificate authority MAY be omitted from the chain, under the assumption that the remote end must already possess it in order to validate it in any case." X509 RFC says: "The selection of a trust anchor is a matter of policy: it could be the top CA in a hierarchical PKI, the CA that issued the verifier's own certificate(s), or any other CA in a network PKI. The path validation procedure is the same regardless of the choice of trust anchor. In addition, different applications may rely on different trust anchors, or may accept paths that begin with any of a set of trust anchors."

2014-01-28Consistently format public_key(3)Tuncer Ayaz
When documenting public_key/0 and private_key/0, I noticed the inconsistent state of formatting in public_key(3)'s Data Types section. This should be fixed for consistency and readability.
2014-01-28Fix incorrect use of public_key:private_key/0 typeTuncer Ayaz
public_key:private_key/0 was referenced but undefined, and lib/ssl had a local definition of private_key/0. To fix that, make the following changes: * add public_key:private_key/0 type * document public_key/0 and private_key/0 * fix incorrect definitions and references
2014-01-28Fix incorrect proplists type referenceTuncer Ayaz
ssh and public_key were referring to proplists:proplists/0 which does not exist. Fix by using the correct type proplists:proplist/0.

2013-10-10fix a little typo in public_key documentationTomas Morstein
In the example of `public_key:pem_entry_encode/2`, the result should match to `PemEntry` rather than to `PemBin` since `PemEntry` is expected as an input argument of `public_key:pem_encode/1` called just on the next line of the example.

2013-06-07public_key & ssl: Add ASN-1 dependencyIngela Anderton Andin
As the ASN-1 application relies on a nif in R16 for decodeing (that was not the case in R15), public_key currently has a runtime dependency on ASN-1. Hopefully we will be able to remove this dependency again in the future.

Some certificates may use these OIDs instead of the ones defined by PKIX/PKCS standard. Refactor code so that all handling of the "duplicate" oids is done by public_key. Update algorithm information in documentation.
