✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_ocsp_resp_get_signature — bestie, this is the API function that yoinks the signature out of an OCSP response 💅

okay so real quick — this whole page lives in the gnutls manual, section 3, so like gnutls_ocsp_resp_get_signature(3), and it's giving "crypto librarian energy" fr fr.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/ocsp.h>

int gnutls_ocsp_resp_get_signature(gnutls_ocsp_resp_const_t resp,
                                   gnutls_datum_t * sig);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_ocsp_resp_const_t resp — this one should contain a gnutls_ocsp_resp_t type. like it's the OCSP response you're digging through, and yes it's const because we're just looking, not touching 🔍
  • gnutls_datum_t * sig — a newly allocated output buffer that gets the signature data dropped into it. not me handing you a fresh lil buffer and filling it with signature bytes 🫶

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So the way that this works: this function will extract the signature field of a OCSP response. that's it. that's the whole job. it grabs the signature and puts it in your buffer, iconic behaviour, no notes 👑

🌈 RETURNS 🌈

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (which is literally 0, slay) is returned. otherwise you get a negative error value, which is your sign that something went sideways 😭
