NAME
gnutls_aead_cipher_decrypt - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/crypto.h>
int gnutls_aead_cipher_decrypt(gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t handle, const
void * nonce, size_t nonce_len, const void * auth, size_t auth_len,
size_t tag_size, const void * ctext, size_t ctext_len, void * ptext,
size_t * ptext_len);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t handle
is a gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t type.
const void * nonce
the nonce to set
size_t nonce_len
The length of the nonce
const void * auth
additional data to be authenticated
size_t auth_len
The length of the data
size_t tag_size
The size of the tag to use (use zero for the default)
const void * ctext
the data to decrypt (including the authentication tag)
size_t ctext_len
the length of data to decrypt (includes tag size)
void * ptext
the decrypted data
size_t * ptext_len
the length of decrypted data (initially must hold the
maximum available size)
DESCRIPTION
This function will decrypt the given data using the algorithm specified
by the context. This function must be provided the complete data to be
decrypted, including the authentication tag. On several AEAD ciphers,
the authentication tag is appended to the ciphertext, though this is
not a general rule. This function will fail if the tag verification
fails.
RETURNS
Zero or a negative error code on verification failure or other error.
SINCE
3.4.0
