gnutls_cipher_decrypt2(3) gnutls gnutls_cipher_decrypt2(3)
NAME
gnutls_cipher_decrypt2 - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/crypto.h>
gnutls_cipher_decrypt2(3) handle, const void *
ctext, size_t ctext_len, void * ptext, size_t ptext_len);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_cipher_hd_t handle
is a gnutls_cipher_hd_t type
const void * ctext
the data to decrypt
size_t ctext_len
the length of data to decrypt
void * ptext
the decrypted data
size_t ptext_len
the available length for decrypted data
DESCRIPTION
This function will decrypt the given data using the algorithm specified
by the context. For block ciphers the ctext_len must be a multiple of
the block size. For the supported ciphers the plaintext data length
will equal the ciphertext size.
Note that in AEAD ciphers, this will not check the tag. You will need
to compare the tag sent with the value returned from
gnutls_cipher_tag().
RETURNS
Zero or a negative error code on error.

2.12.0
