     the peer

     SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() returns a pointer to STACKOF(X509)
     certificates forming the certificate chain of the peer. If
     called on the client side, the stack also contains the
     peer's certificate; if called on the server side, the peer's
     certificate must be obtained separately using
     SSL_get_peer_certificate(3).  If the peer did not present a
     certificate, NULL is returned.

NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEESSSS
     The peer certificate chain is not necessarily available
     after reusing a session, in which case a NULL pointer is
     returned.

     The reference count of the STACKOF(X509) object is not
     incremented.  If the corresponding session is freed, the
     pointer must not be used any longer.

     The following return values can occur:

     NULL
         No certificate was presented by the peer or no
         connection was established or the certificate chain is
         no longer available when a session is reused.

     Pointer to a STACKOF(X509)
         The return value points to the certificate chain
         presented by the peer.
