142 Note arguments are passed CL style, :type TYPE instead of just TYPE.
144 TYPE is `gnutls-x509pki' (default) or `gnutls-anon'. Use nil for the default.
145 PROCESS is a process returned by `open-network-stream'.
146 HOSTNAME is the remote hostname. It must be a valid string.
147 PRIORITY-STRING is as per the GnuTLS docs, default is \"NORMAL\".
148 TRUSTFILES is a list of CA bundles. It defaults to `gnutls-trustfiles'.
149 CRLFILES is a list of CRL files.
150 KEYLIST is an alist of (client key file, client cert file) pairs.
151 MIN-PRIME-BITS is the minimum acceptable size of Diffie-Hellman keys
152 \(see `gnutls-min-prime-bits' for more information). Use nil for the
155 VERIFY-HOSTNAME-ERROR is a backwards compatibility option for
156 putting `:hostname' in VERIFY-ERROR.
158 When VERIFY-ERROR is t or a list containing `:trustfiles', an
159 error will be raised when the peer certificate verification fails
160 as per GnuTLS' gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2. Otherwise, only
161 warnings will be shown about the verification failure.
163 When VERIFY-ERROR is t or a list containing `:hostname', an error
164 will be raised when the hostname does not match the presented
165 certificate's host name. The exact verification algorithm is a
166 basic implementation of the matching described in
167 RFC2818 (HTTPS), which takes into account wildcards, and the
168 DNSName/IPAddress subject alternative name PKIX extension. See
169 GnuTLS' gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname for details. Otherwise,
170 only a warning will be issued.
172 Note that the list in `gnutls-verify-error', matched against the
173 HOSTNAME, is the default VERIFY-ERROR.
175 VERIFY-FLAGS is a numeric OR of verification flags only for
176 `gnutls-x509pki' connections. See GnuTLS' x509.h for details;
177 here's a recent version of the list.
