💖 gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_usage(3) 💖

okay bestie so this is a page from the gnutls manual, and it's literally about telling a certificate request what its key is allowed to do 🔑✨

✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_usage — API function 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_usage(gnutls_x509_crq_t crq, unsigned int
usage);

like. the whole vibe in two lines. iconic. 👑

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • gnutls_x509_crq_t crq — a certificate request of type gnutls_x509_crq_t. yes it's the same name as the type, no we're not going to talk about it, that's just how it is 💅
  • unsigned int usage — an ORed sequence of the GNUTLS_KEY_* elements. so you take all your little permission flags and smush them together with bitwise OR, and that's the vibe. ORed sequence, not a single value, mkay? 🫶

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

This function will set the keyUsage certificate extension. that's it. that's the whole job. it goes in, it sets the extension, it leaves. main character energy fr fr ⭐

💜 RETURNS 💜

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative error value. so like, 0 is the slay outcome and anything negative is giving "something went wrong, check your vibe" 😭

🎀 SINCE 🎀

2.8.0 — so this function has been around since forever, it's a veteran, an elder, a legend 👑
