NAME

       gnutls_tpm_privkey_generate - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/tpm.h>

       gnutls_tpm_privkey_generate(3) pk, unsigned int
       bits,  const  char  *  srk_password,   const   char   *   key_password,
       gnutls_tpmkey_fmt_t     format,    gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t    pub_format,
       gnutls_datum_t * privkey, gnutls_datum_t * pubkey, unsigned int flags);


ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_pk_algorithm_t pk
                   the public key algorithm

       unsigned int bits
                   the security bits

       const char * srk_password
                   a password to protect the exported key (optional)

       const char * key_password
                   the password for the TPM (optional)

       gnutls_tpmkey_fmt_t format
                   the format of the private key

       gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t pub_format
                   the format of the public key

       gnutls_datum_t * privkey
                   the generated key

       gnutls_datum_t * pubkey
                   the corresponding public key (may be null)

       unsigned int flags
                   should be a list of GNUTLS_TPM_* flags


DESCRIPTION

       This  function will generate a private key in the TPM chip. The private
       key will be generated within the chip and will be exported in a wrapped
       with  TPM's  master  key  form. Furthermore the wrapped key can be pro-
       tected with the provided  password .

       Note that bits in TPM is quantized value. If the input value is not one
       of  the  allowed values, then it will be quantized to one of 512, 1024,
       2048, 4096, 8192 and 16384.

       Allowed flags are:


RETURNS

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


SINCE

       3.1.0
