🎀 crypto_kpp_g...e_public_key(9) 🎀

okay bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for crypto_kpp_generate_public_key, and it’s basically the “make the public part happen” girly in the kpp world 💅✨

✨ NAME ✨

crypto_kpp_generate_public_key — invoke kpp operation. that’s the whole name, no cap 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

the whole call looks like this, bestie:

int crypto_kpp_generate_public_key (struct kpp_request *req );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• req — kpp key request. this is the kpp key request being passed in, periodt 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

this function invokes the specific kpp operation for generating the public part for a given kpp algorithm. it’s giving “go do the public-part thing for this algorithm” energy 🔥

to generate a private key, the caller should use a random number generator. the output of the requested length serves as the private key. yes, literally that length — that’s the private key vibe 🌈

⭐ RETURN ⭐

zero on success; error code in case of error. so like, zero is the slay outcome, and an error code is the “hmm something went off” outcome 😭
