They fail if .Fa x is .Dv NULL or does not contain a .Fa validity substructure, if .Fa crl is .Dv NULL , or if .Xr ASN1_STRING_dup 3 fails. .Pp Except for some cases of .Xr ASN1_STRING_dup 3 failure, these functions do not support determining reasons for failure with .Xr ERR_get_error 3 . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr ASN1_TIME_set 3 , .Xr ASN1_TIME_set_tm 3 , .Xr X509_cmp_time 3 , .Xr X509_CRL_get0_by_serial 3 , .Xr X509_CRL_new 3 , .Xr X509_get_subject_name 3 , .Xr X509_new 3 , .Xr X509_sign 3 , .Xr X509_VAL_new 3 , .Xr X509_verify_cert 3 .Sh HISTORY .Fn X509_get_notBefore , .Fn X509_get_notAfter , .Fn X509_set_notBefore , and .Fn X509_set_notAfter first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.5 and have been available since .Ox 2.4 . .Pp .Fn X509_CRL_get_lastUpdate and .Fn X509_CRL_get_nextUpdate first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.2 and have been available since .Ox 2.6 . .Pp .Fn X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate and .Fn X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.7 and have been available since .Ox 3.2 . .Pp The remaining functions first appeared in OpenSSL 1.1.0 and have been available since .Ox 6.3 .
