asymmetric_key_generate_id(9)
π asymmetric_key_generate_id(9)
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ this one lives in section 9 and it's all about cooking up an asymmetric key ID. let's get into it π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
asymmetric_key_generate_id β literally just constructs an asymmetric key ID. that's the whole vibe.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
struct asymmetric_key_id * asymmetric_key_generate_id (const void *val_1
, size_t len_1 , const void *val_2 , size_t len_2 );
like yes bestie it returns a struct asymmetric_key_id *, no cap π
π ARGUMENTS π
val_1β the first binary blob, icon behavior frlen_1β how many bytes long that first binary blob is, gotta keep it honestval_2β the second binary blob, the sequel that atelen_2β and the length of the second binary blob π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so the whole thing is: construct an asymmetric key ID from a pair of binary blobs. two blobs in, one key ID out. it's giving main character energy, it's giving β¨utility functionβ¨, and honestly? obsessed. π
