Hi, While going through the code in apps/x509.c, in line:979, function x509_certify(). What does the 3 lines do? It seems useless for the upkey is free after parameters being copied to? As int EVP_PKEY_copy_parameters(EVP_PKEY *to,EVP_PKEY *from); is defined as copy from the second argument to the first. What are the normal sequences of function calls (roughly) to certify a certificate request?
