.SH NAME
gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_generate2 \- API function
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <gnutls/pkcs11.h>
.sp
.BI "int gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_generate2(const char * " url ", gnutls_pk_algorithm_t " pk ", unsigned int " bits ", const char * " label ", gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t " fmt ", gnutls_datum_t * " pubkey ", unsigned int " flags ");"
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "const char * url" 12
a token URL
.IP "gnutls_pk_algorithm_t pk" 12
the public key algorithm
.IP "unsigned int bits" 12
the security bits
.IP "const char * label" 12
a label
.IP "gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t fmt" 12
the format of output params. PEM or DER
.IP "gnutls_datum_t * pubkey" 12
will hold the public key (may be \fBNULL\fP)
.IP "unsigned int flags" 12
zero or an OR'ed sequence of \fBGNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAGs\fP
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This function will generate a private key in the specified
by the  \fIurl\fP token. The private key will be generate within
the token and will not be exportable. This function will
store the DER\-encoded public key in the SubjectPublicKeyInfo format
in  \fIpubkey\fP . The  \fIpubkey\fP should be deinitialized using \fBgnutls_free()\fP.

Note that when generating an elliptic curve key, the curve
can be substituted in the place of the bits parameter using the
\fBGNUTLS_CURVE_TO_BITS()\fP macro.
.SH "RETURNS"
On success, \fBGNUTLS_E_SUCCESS\fP (0) is returned, otherwise a
negative error value.
.SH "SINCE"
3.1.5
.SH "REPORTING BUGS"
