🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crq_get_signature_oid(gnutls_x509_crq_t crq, char * oid,
       size_t * oid_size);

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• gnutls_x509_crq_t crq — this one should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t type. that's the vibe check it has to pass, no cap 🦋
• char * oid — a pointer to a buffer that's gonna hold the OID. and yes, it may be null 👀
• size_t * oid_size — this starts out holding the size of oid, so it comes in pre-loaded, okurrr 💅

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the tea ☕ — this function returns the OID of the signature algorithm that was used to sign this certificate request. literally what it says on the tin, bestie.

and the way it's actually useful? it's giving backup plan, because when gnutls_x509_crq_get_signature_algorithm() came back with GNUTLS_SIGN_UNKNOWN, this is the one you call next 🙈✨

---

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

zero, or a negative error code if something went wrong 😭 that's it, that's the whole return value.
