✨ gnutls_pkcs7_get_crl_raw2 — the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page from the gnutls manual (that's the library, not the vibe) and today's main character is gnutls_pkcs7_get_crl_raw2. she's an API function. she's lowkey iconic. let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

gnutls_pkcs7_get_crl_raw2 — API function

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <gnutls/pkcs7.h>

int gnutls_pkcs7_get_crl_raw2(gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7, unsigned indx,
gnutls_datum_t * crl);

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7 — the pkcs7 type, she's the container holding all the goods 🫶
  • unsigned indx — holds the index of the crl you wanna extract, so like, which one are we pulling bestie
  • gnutls_datum_t * crl — this is gonna contain the contents of the CRL, dropped into an allocated buffer ✨ (allocated!! so yes, that's yours to deal with later, no cap)

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what does she actually do?? this function returns a DER encoded CRL from the PKCS7 or RFC2630 crl set. that's it, that's the whole vibe. the way she just hands you a DER encoded CRL like it's nothing 😭

🔥 RETURNS 🔥

  • when it goes well?? GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned. slay. 💅
  • when it doesn't?? you get a negative error value, booo 🍓
  • and the lil plot twist: after the last crl has been read, you're gonna get GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE back. so if you're looping through them, that's your cue to stop. periodt.
no cap: that last one is not a bug, it's literally just how you know you've hit the end of the crl set.

⭐ SINCE ⭐

3.4.2 — she's been here a minute, respect the elders 👑
