NAME         top

       gnutls_tpm_privkey_generate - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       flags);

ARGUMENTS         top

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function will generate a private key in the TPM chip. The
       private key will be generated within the chip and will be exported in
       a wrapped with TPM's master key form. Furthermore the wrapped key can
       be protected with the provided  password .
       Note that bits in TPM is quantized value. If the input value is not
       one of the allowed values, then it will be quantized to one of 512,
       1024, 2048, 4096, 8192 and 16384.
       Allowed flags are:

RETURNS         top

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

SINCE         top
