+=head1 NAME
+
+SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert, SSL_CTX_clear_extra_chain_certs - add or clear
+extra chain certificates
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/ssl.h>
+
+ long SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(SSL_CTX *ctx, X509 *x509);
+ long SSL_CTX_clear_extra_chain_certs(SSL_CTX *ctx);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() adds the certificate B<x509> to the extra chain
+certificates associated with B<ctx>. Several certificates can be added one
+after another.
+
+SSL_CTX_clear_extra_chain_certs() clears all extra chain certificates
+associated with B<ctx>.
+
+These functions are implemented as macros.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+When sending a certificate chain, extra chain certificates are sent in order
+following the end entity certificate.
+
+If no chain is specified, the library will try to complete the chain from the
+available CA certificates in the trusted CA storage, see
+L<SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3)>.
+
+The B<x509> certificate provided to SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() will be
+freed by the library when the B<SSL_CTX> is destroyed. An application
+B<should not> free the B<x509> object.
+
+=head1 RESTRICTIONS
+
+Only one set of extra chain certificates can be specified per SSL_CTX
+structure. Different chains for different certificates (for example if both
+RSA and DSA certificates are specified by the same server) or different SSL
+structures with the same parent SSL_CTX cannot be specified using this
+function. For more flexibility functions such as SSL_add1_chain_cert() should
+be used instead.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() and SSL_CTX_clear_extra_chain_certs() return
+1 on success and 0 for failure. Check out the error stack to find out the
+reason for failure.
