NAME

       gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/abstract.h>

       int gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign(gnutls_x509_crl_t crl,
       gnutls_x509_crt_t issuer, gnutls_privkey_t issuer_key,
       gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig, unsigned int flags);


ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crl_t crl
                   should contain a gnutls_x509_crl_t type

       gnutls_x509_crt_t issuer
                   is the certificate of the certificate issuer

       gnutls_privkey_t issuer_key
                   holds the issuer's private key

       gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig
                   The message digest to use. GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256 is the safe
                   choice unless you know what you're doing.

       unsigned int flags
                   must be 0


DESCRIPTION

       This function will sign the CRL with the issuer's private key, and will
       copy the issuer's information into the CRL.

       This must be the last step in a certificate CRL since all the
       previously set parameters are now signed.

       A known limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed CRL will
       not be fully functional (e.g., for signature verification), until it is
       exported an re-imported.

       After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of  dig may be GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN, and in
       that case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm will be
       selected.


RETURNS

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative
       error value.

       Since 2.12.0
