✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_ocsp_req_randomize_nonce — bestie, this is literally an API function and it's about to refresh your OCSP request's nonce 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <gnutls/ocsp.h>

int gnutls_ocsp_req_randomize_nonce(gnutls_ocsp_req_t req);

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • gnutls_ocsp_req_t req — okay so this one should contain a gnutls_ocsp_req_t type. that's the whole vibe of it. that's the assignment. 💖

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the tea, bestie: this function will add or update a nonce extension to the OCSP request, and it fills it in with a newly generated random value. ✨

Like, if your request already has a nonce? It gets updated. If it doesn't? It gets added. Either way, the value is fresh and random, no cap. It's giving "new nonce just dropped" energy 👑

💜 RETURNS 💜

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned. 🎉

Otherwise? A negative error code comes back. 😭 Not the slay we wanted, but that's the deal — negative means something went sideways.
