💖 gnutls_x509_crt_check_revocation 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the gnutls manual, section 3 (that's library calls, iykyk). this one is gnutls_x509_crt_check_revocation and it's literally the "is this cert cancelled or not" detector. let's get into it 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crt_check_revocation(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, const
gnutls_x509_crl_t * crl_list, unsigned crl_list_length);

there she is. three args, one int coming back at you. slay 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_x509_crt_t cert — bestie this should hold a gnutls_x509_crt_t type. that's the cert you're side-eyeing. 👀
  • const gnutls_x509_crl_t * crl_list — this one should hold a list of gnutls_x509_crl_t types. yes, a whole roster of CRLs. the group chat, if you will. 🫶
  • unsigned crl_list_length — the length of the crl_list. how many CRLs are in that roster, no more no less. count them fr fr. 🔢

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so the way this works is: this function checks whether the certificate you handed it is revoked. that's it. that's the whole vibe check.

⚠️ important, don't skip: it is assumed that the CRLs have been verified before you call this. this function does not verify them for you. do your homework first bestie, no cap. 😭

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

  • 0 — the cert is NOT revoked. she's fine. she's valid. iconic. ✨
  • 1 — the cert IS revoked. 🚫💀
  • a negative error code — something went wrong on error. not me getting an error 😭
