Arguments

gnutls_pubkey_t pubkey

Holds the public key

gnutls_sign_algorithm_t algo

The signature algorithm used

unsigned int flags

Zero or an OR list of gnutls_certificate_verify_flags

const gnutls_datum_t * data

holds the signed data

const gnutls_datum_t * signature

contains the signature

Overview
