💖 NAME 💖

gnutls_dh_params_import_dsa — it's an API function, bestie, and it's here to do one (1) iconic little job

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

int gnutls_dh_params_import_dsa(gnutls_dh_params_t dh_params,
                                gnutls_x509_privkey_t key);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_dh_params_t dh_params — the parameters, like, the lil container you're stuffing stuff into 🫶
  • gnutls_x509_privkey_t key — this one holds a DSA private key, no cap

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the vibe: this function will import the prime and generator of the DSA key, and it does that so they can be used in the Diffie-Hellman key exchange. that's it. that's the whole plot. prime + generator, grabbed straight out of your DSA key, dropped into your DH params 💅

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

on success you get GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) back — slay — otherwise it hands you a negative error code instead 😭 so like, check it, fr fr
