💖 gnutls_privkey_export_dsa_raw(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this one lives in the gnutls manual, and it's literally called gnutls_privkey_export_dsa_raw. Yes, the name is a whole mouthful, we love her anyway. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_privkey_export_dsa_raw — it's an API function, no cap 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/abstract.h>

int gnutls_privkey_export_dsa_raw(gnutls_privkey_t key, gnutls_datum_t *
p, gnutls_datum_t * q, gnutls_datum_t * g, gnutls_datum_t * y,
gnutls_datum_t * x);

like. look at all those pointers. she's giving parameter buffet. 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • gnutls_privkey_t key — this one holds the public key. yes we know, it's a private key function holding a public key, don't look at us, that's just what the manpage says 🙈
  • gnutls_datum_t * p — will hold the p. iconic. mysterious. she's just p. 💜
  • gnutls_datum_t * q — will hold the q. the sequel. 🍓
  • gnutls_datum_t * g — will hold the g. the third one. ✨
  • gnutls_datum_t * y — will hold the y. almost at the end of the alphabet. 🌈
  • gnutls_datum_t * x — will hold the x. the main character, lowkey. 👑
not me listing every single letter like a preschool teacher. but fr fr, they're all gnutls_datum_t * and they all get filled in. 🧚

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so basically: this function will export the DSA private key's parameters found in the given structure. 🫶

the new parameters get allocated using gnutls_malloc() and will be stored in the appropriate datum. so like, the memory is hers, she allocated it, you don't have to make room yourself. slay. 💅
