<h4 class="subsection">5.4.2 Key generation</h4>

<p>All keys used by the TPM must be generated by the TPM. This can be
done using <a href="TPM-API.html#gnutls_005ftpm_005fprivkey_005fgenerate">gnutls_tpm_privkey_generate</a>.
</p>

</p>
<p>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&rsquo;s master key
form. Furthermore the wrapped key can be protected with
the provided  <code>password</code> .
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>Allowed flags are:
</p>
<p><strong>Returns:</strong> On success, <code>GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS</code>  (0) is returned, otherwise a
negative error value.
</p>
<p><strong>Since:</strong> 3.1.0
