✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_cpy — it's an API function, periodt 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/pkcs11.h>

int gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_cpy(gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_t dst,
gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_t src);

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_t dst — the destination key, and girl, it should be initialized first. don't come in here with an uninitialized dst, that's not the vibe 🙈
• gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_t src — the source key. the original. the blueprint. the main character 👑

---

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

So what does it actually do? This function will copy a private key from source to destination key. That's it, that's the whole thing, and honestly? iconic.

⚠️ heads up: the destination has to be initialized. No exceptions, no shortcuts, no "it'll probably be fine" — it will not be fine. Initialize that dst first 💀

🔥 RETURNS 🔥

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned. Otherwise you get a negative error value — which is the function's way of saying "not me being upset with you rn 😭". Check it. Always check it.
