✨ gnutls_x509_crl_init — the API function 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the gnutls manual, section 3. yes we're doing man pages now, it's giving study date at 2am and honestly? iconic. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

gnutls_x509_crl_init — literally the API function, that's it, that's the name 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crl_init(gnutls_x509_crl_t * crl);

no cap, that's the whole thing. short. sweet. main character energy. ✨

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • gnutls_x509_crl_t * crl — bestie this is a pointer to the type to be initialized. you hand it the pointer, it does the glow-up. 💅

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

okay so listen. this function will initialize a CRL structure. and before you ask — CRL stands for Certificate Revocation List. yes queen, the whole acronym, we're not abbreviating the abbreviation. 🌈

a revocation list usually contains lists of certificate serial numbers that have been revoked by an Authority. so like… the naughty list, but for certs, and it's cryptographically binding, so you can't just lie your way off it. 😭

and the way that these revocation lists are always signed with the authority's private key?? obsessed. that's the whole security vibe right there, no cap. 🔥

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

on success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned. otherwise you get a negative error value and it's giving sad girl hours, but at least you know. 🙈
