NAME         top

       gnutls_cipher_get_iv_size - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/crypto.h>

       unsigned gnutls_cipher_get_iv_size(gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t
       algorithm);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t algorithm
                   is an encryption algorithm

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function returns the size of the initialization vector (IV)
       for the provided algorithm. For algorithms with variable size IV
       (e.g., AES-CCM), the returned size will be the one used by TLS.

RETURNS         top

       block size for encryption algorithm.

SINCE         top

       3.2.0
