The value is specific for the TLS backend curl is built to use so I don't think we will document the values any further than so. To get a feel for what the values mean in OpenSSL, check out their x509_vfy.h file. |

The documentation for CURLINFO_SSL_VERIFYRESULT (
docs/libcurl/opts/CURLINFO_SSL_VERIFYRESULT.3) does not explain the meaning of the value stored in the third argument ofcurl_easy_getinfo.The source code suggests that 0 means success, non-zero - verification error.
It also seems that the example given contradicts the actual behavior of the library, printing "fine" on verification error, and "BAAAD" when the verification is ok.
