NAME
       gnutls_x509_crl_sign2 - API function


SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int     gnutls_x509_crl_sign2(gnutls_x509_crl_t     crl,     gnutls_x509_crt_t     issuer,
       gnutls_x509_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_x509_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.
