NAME

ldns_dnssec_verify_denial, ldns_dnssec_verify_denial_nsec3

SYNOPSIS

#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdbool.h>

#include <ldns/ldns.h>

ldns_status ldns_dnssec_verify_denial(ldns_rr *rr, ldns_rr_list *nsecs,
ldns_rr_list *rrsigs);

ldns_status ldns_dnssec_verify_denial_nsec3(ldns_rr  *rr,  ldns_rr_list
*nsecs, ldns_rr_list *rrsigs, ldns_pkt_rcode packet_rcode, ldns_rr_type
packet_qtype, bool packet_nodata);

DESCRIPTION

ldns_dnssec_verify_denial() denial is not just a river in egypt

rr: The (query) RR to check the denial of existence for
nsecs: The list of NSEC RRs that are supposed to deny the

existence of the RR

rrsigs: The RRSIG RR covering the NSEC RRs
Returns LDNS_STATUS_OK if the NSEC RRs deny the existence, error code

containing the reason they do not other

wise

ldns_dnssec_verify_denial_nsec3() Denial of existence using NSEC3

records Since NSEC3 is a bit more complicated than normal denial, some context arguments are needed

rr: The (query) RR to check the denial of existence for
nsecs: The list of NSEC3 RRs that are supposed to deny the

existence of the RR

rrsigs: The RRSIG rr covering the NSEC RRs
packet_rcode: The RCODE value of the packet that provided the

NSEC3 RRs

packet_qtype: The original query RR type packet_nodata: True if the providing packet had an empty ANSWER

section

Returns LDNS_STATUS_OK if the NSEC3 RRs deny the existence, error code

containing the reason they do not other

wise
