32 * Identifiers for an asymmetric key ID. We have three ways of looking up a
33 * key derived from an X.509 certificate:
35 * (1) Serial Number & Issuer. Non-optional. This is the only valid way to
36 * map a PKCS#7 signature to an X.509 certificate.
38 * (2) Issuer & Subject Unique IDs. Optional. These were the original way to
39 * match X.509 certificates, but have fallen into disuse in favour of (3).
41 * (3) Auth & Subject Key Identifiers. Optional. SKIDs are only provided on
42 * CA keys that are intended to sign other keys, so don't appear in end
43 * user certificates unless forced.
45 * We could also support an PGP key identifier, which is just a SHA1 sum of the
46 * public key and certain parameters, but since we don't support PGP keys at
47 * the moment, we shall ignore those.
49 * What we actually do is provide a place where binary identifiers can be
50 * stashed and then compare against them when checking for an id match.
