💖 gnutls_x509_crl_export — bestie edition 💖

okay so this one lives in the gnutls manual (section 3, the library-functions girlies ✨) and it's literally called gnutls_x509_crl_export. no cap, that's the whole name. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_x509_crl_export — it's an API function, bestie. that's the vibe. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crl_export(gnutls_x509_crl_t crl, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t
format, void * output_data, size_t * output_data_size);

like. look at her. main character signature fr fr 👑

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_x509_crl_t crl — this bad girl holds the revocation list. she's the whole point, ok? the CRL in question.
  • gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format — the format of the output params. it's one of PEM or DER, pick your fighter 💫
  • void * output_data — this is gonna contain a private key PEM or DER encoded. yeah that's what the manpage says, we're not questioning it, we're just delivering the facts bestie 🙈
  • size_t * output_data_size — holds the size of output_data, and it will be replaced by the actual size of the parameters. so it's a lil two-way street, she goes in with one value and comes out with another. iconic behavior honestly ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, this function will export the revocation list to DER or PEM format. that's it, that's the job. she ate and left no crumbs 💅

and like, important detail: if the buffer you provided is not long enough to hold the output, then GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER gets returned. so don't come crying when your buffer's too smol — the function will literally tell you. periodt 💀

also! if the structure is PEM encoded, it's gonna have a header of "BEGIN X509 CRL". cute little banner for your cute little CRL, we love to see it 🌈

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

on success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned 🎉 otherwise you get a negative error value. so like, zero is the good one, negative means something went sideways. vibe check accordingly 😭
