✨ gnutls_x509_crt_get_pk_gost_raw(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in the gnutls manual — yes, the whole gnutls manual, we're in the big leagues now 💅 — and it's literally the girl whose whole job is pulling a GOST public key's parameters out of a certificate. Let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

gnutls_x509_crt_get_pk_gost_raw — an API function. that's it, that's the name, no notes 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crt_get_pk_gost_raw(gnutls_x509_crt_t crt,
gnutls_ecc_curve_t * curve, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t * digest,
gnutls_gost_paramset_t * paramset, gnutls_datum_t * x, gnutls_datum_t *
y);

look at her, six args deep and serving ✨ (and yes, include that header, she needs it)

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_x509_crt_t crt — this one holds the certificate. the girl in question, the cert we're snooping through 👑
  • gnutls_ecc_curve_t * curve — this pointer is gonna hold the curve when we're done with it 🌈
  • gnutls_digest_algorithm_t * digest — and this one will hold the digest 💜
  • gnutls_gost_paramset_t * paramset — this one's storing the GOST parameter set ID, so like, the very specific GOST-flavoured settings 🍓
  • gnutls_datum_t * x — will hold the x-coordinate, standard 💅
  • gnutls_datum_t * y — will hold the y-coordinate, matching, iconic ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so basically this function will export the GOST public key's parameters that it finds chillin' inside the given certificate 🔥

and here's the important bit, no cap: the new parameters get allocated using gnutls_malloc(), and they get stored in the appropriate datum. so like, the memory is hers now, she allocated it, you don't just free it with whatever, you use the gnutls way, iykyk 🧚

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on success 🎉 — otherwise a negative error code 😭 (gnutls really said "negative vibes = something went wrong")

🕰️ SINCE 🕰️

3.6.3 — she's been around a minute, a seasoned queen 💅
