# gnutls\_psk\_allocate\_server\_credentials2(3)

API function

## NAME

gnutls\_psk\_allocate\_server\_credentials2 - API function

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<gnutls/gnutls.h\>**

**int gnutls\_psk\_allocate\_server\_credentials2(gnutls\_psk\_server\_credentials\_t \*** *sc***, gnutls\_mac\_algorithm\_t** *mac***);**

## ARGUMENTS

- gnutls\_psk\_server\_credentials\_t \* sc

  is a pointer to a **gnutls\_psk\_server\_credentials\_t** type.

- gnutls\_mac\_algorithm\_t mac

  encryption algorithm to use

## DESCRIPTION

Allocate a gnutls\_psk\_server\_credentials\_t structure and initializes the HMAC binder algorithm to  *mac* . If  *mac* is set to GNUTLS\_MAC\_UNKNOWN both possible algorithms SHA384 and SHA256 are applied to find a matching binder value.

## RETURNS

On success, **GNUTLS\_E\_SUCCESS** (0) is returned, otherwise an error code is returned.
