gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(3)	    gnutls     gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(3)

NAME
       gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<gnutls/abstract.h>

       int	   gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(gnutls_x509_crq_t	  crq,
       gnutls_privkey_t	 key,  gnutls_digest_algorithm_t  dig,	unsigned   int
       flags);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_x509_crq_t crq
		   should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t type

       gnutls_privkey_t	key
		   holds a private key

       gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig
		   The message digest to use, i.e., GNUTLS_DIG_SHA1

       unsigned	int flags
		   must	be 0

DESCRIPTION
       This  function  will  sign  the certificate request with	a private key.
       This must be the	same key as the	one used in  gnutls_x509_crt_set_key()
       since a certificate request is self signed.

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

       A known limitation of this function is,	that  a	 newly-signed  request
       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 se-
       lected.

RETURNS
       GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS	 on  success,  otherwise  a   negative	 error	 code.
       GNUTLS_E_ASN1_VALUE_NOT_FOUND  is returned if you didn't	set all	infor-
       mation  in  the	certificate   request	(e.g.,	 the   version	 using
       gnutls_x509_crq_set_version()).

SINCE
       2.12.0
