gnutls_cipher_decrypt2(3)	     gnutls	       gnutls_cipher_decrypt2(3)

NAME
     gnutls_cipher_decrypt2 - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <gnutls/crypto.h>

     int  gnutls_cipher_decrypt2(gnutls_cipher_hd_t  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 * ptextthe 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.

SINCE
     2.12.0
