gnutls_cipher_list(3)

💖 NAME 💖

gnutls_cipher_list — bestie, this is the lil API function that hands you the whole guest list of ciphers 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

const gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t * gnutls_cipher_list( void);

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• void — literally nothing, she takes no arguments, she's low maintenance like that 🫶

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so gnutls_cipher_list() gets you a list of supported cipher algorithms. That's it, that's the vibe. 💅

But wait — not necessarily all ciphers are supported as TLS cipher suites. Like, some of them are just here for other reasons, doing side quests. For example, DES is not supported as a cipher suite, but it is supported for other purposes (e.g., PKCS8 or similar). So don't come for her, she's valid, just not in that context. 😌

🚨 Heads up bestie: this function is not thread safe. So don't be calling her from a bunch of threads at once, she cannot handle that kind of drama. 💀

---

🦋 RETURNS 🦋

A (0)-terminated list of gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t integers indicating the available ciphers. Yes queen, it's null-terminated, so you just walk it till you hit that zero. Periodt. ⭐
