NAME
       gnutls_pkcs11_init - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/pkcs11.h>

       int gnutls_pkcs11_init(unsigned int flags, const char *
       deprecated_config_file);

ARGUMENTS
       unsigned int flags
                   An ORed sequence of GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_*

       const char * deprecated_config_file
                   either NULL or the location of a deprecated configuration
                   file

DESCRIPTION
       This function will initialize the PKCS 11 subsystem in gnutls. It will
       read configuration files if GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_AUTO is used or allow
       you to independently load PKCS 11 modules using
       gnutls_pkcs11_add_provider() if GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_MANUAL is specified.

       You don't need to call this function since GnuTLS 3.3.0 because it is
       being called during the first request PKCS 11 operation. That call will
       assume the GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_AUTO flag. If another flags are required
       then it must be called independently prior to any PKCS 11 operation.

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

SINCE
       2.12.0
