// LIMITED SUPPORT FOR CERTIFICATE POLICIES
//
// If SEC_OID_X509_ANY_POLICY is passed as the value of the requiredPolicy
// parameter then all policy validation will be skipped. Otherwise, path
// building and validation will be done for the given policy.
//
// In RFC 5280 terms:
//
// * user-initial-policy-set = { requiredPolicy }.
// * initial-explicit-policy = true
// * initial-any-policy-inhibit = false
//
// We allow intermediate cerificates to use this extension but since
// we do not process the inhibit anyPolicy extesion we will fail if this
// Because we force explicit policy and because we prohibit policy mapping, we
// do not bother processing the policy mapping, or policy constraint.
//
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// ERROR RANKING
//
// BuildCertChain prioritizes certain checks ahead of others so that when a
// certificate chain has multiple errors, the "most serious" error is
// returned. In practice, this ranking of seriousness is tied directly to how
// Firefox's certificate error override mechanism.
//
// The ranking is:
//
// 1. Active distrust (Result::ERROR_UNTRUSTED_CERT).
// 2. Problems with issuer-independent properties for CA certificates.
// 3. Unknown issuer (Result::ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER).
// 4. Problems with issuer-independent properties for EE certificates.
// 5. Revocation.
//
// In particular, if BuildCertChain returns Result::ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER then
// the caller can call CERT_CheckCertValidTimes to determine if the certificate
// is ALSO expired.
//
// It would be better if revocation were prioritized above expiration and
// unknown issuer. However, it is impossible to do revocation checking without
// knowing the issuer, since the issuer information is needed to validate the
// revocation information. Also, generally revocation checking only works
// during the validity period of the certificate.
//
// In general, when path building fails, BuildCertChain will return
// Result::ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER. However, if all attempted paths resulted in
// the same error (which is trivially true when there is only one potential
// path), more specific errors will be returned.
//
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Meanings of specific error codes can be found in Result.h
// This function attempts to find a trustworthy path from the supplied
// certificate to a trust anchor. In the event that no trusted path is found,
// the method returns an error result; the error ranking is described above.
//
// Parameters:
// time:
// Timestamp for which the chain should be valid; this is useful to
// analyze whether a record was trustworthy when it was made.
// requiredKeyUsageIfPresent:
// What key usage bits must be set, if the extension is present at all,
// to be considered a valid chain. Multiple values should be OR'd
// together. If you don't want to specify anything, use
// KeyUsage::noParticularKeyUsageRequired.
// requiredEKUIfPresent:
// What extended key usage bits must be set, if the EKU extension
// exists, to be considered a valid chain. Multiple values should be
// OR'd together. If you don't want to specify anything, use
// KeyPurposeId::anyExtendedKeyUsage.
// requiredPolicy:
// This is the policy to apply; typically included in EV certificates.
// If there is no policy, pass in CertPolicyId::anyPolicy.

// - IP addresses are out of scope of RFC 6125, but this method accepts them for

// The optional parameter thisUpdate will be the thisUpdate value of
// the encoded response if it is considered trustworthy. Only
// good, unknown, or revoked responses that verify correctly are considered
// trustworthy. If the response is not trustworthy, thisUpdate will be 0.
// Similarly, the optional parameter validThrough will be the time through

// the given time at which to validate is less than or equal to validThrough,
// the response will be considered trustworthy).
