✨ shishi_priv_set_enc_part(3) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the shishi manual, section 3 (that's the library-functions section, iykyk). this one's about shishi_priv_set_enc_part, and no cap, it's a whole vibe. 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

shishi_priv_set_enc_part — it's an API function, babes. that's the whole name. short, sweet, iconic. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <shishi.h>

int shishi_priv_set_enc_part(Shishi * handle, Shishi_asn1 priv, int32_t
etype, const char * encpart, size_t encpartlen);

look at her. five arguments. she's booked and busy. ✨

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • Shishi * handle — the shishi handle, and like, you gotta have one — it's allocated by shishi_init(). no handle, no party. 🫶
  • Shishi_asn1 priv — the priv thing, as allocated by shishi_priv(). that's your girl right there.
  • int32_t etype — input encryption type, and you're storing it in PRIV. literally just the etype going in.
  • const char * encpart — the input encrypted data you're storing in PRIV. the actual goods. 🔥
  • size_t encpartlen — size of that input encrypted data you're storing in PRIV. gotta know how big she is.

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so what we're doing here is storing encrypted data in PRIV. simple. clean. main character energy.

where does that encrypted data usually come from, you ask? 👀 usually you got it by calling shishi_encrypt() on some application-specific data, using the key from the ticket that's being used. that's the pipeline.

but wait — if you're trying to save time (and who isn't, bestie), you might wanna use shishi_priv_build() instead. that one encrypts the data and calls this function, all in one step. one step!! it's giving efficiency. ⭐

💀 RETURN VALUE 💀

returns SHISHI_OK iff successful. that's it. that's the whole deal. if it's not SHISHI_OK, something's up and it's not your girl's fault. 😭

🙈 REPORTING BUGS 🙈

found a bug? not the cute kind? report it to <bug-shishi@gnu.org>.

go off, tell them everything. they wanna know. 🫶
