@deftypefun {int} {gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8} (gnutls_x509_privkey_t @var{key}, const gnutls_datum_t * @var{data}, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t @var{format}, const char * @var{password}, unsigned int @var{flags})
@var{key}: The structure to store the parsed key

@var{data}: The DER or PEM encoded key.

@var{format}: One of DER or PEM

@var{password}: the password to decrypt the key (if it is encrypted).

@var{flags}: 0 if encrypted or GNUTLS_PKCS_PLAIN if not encrypted.

This function will convert the given DER or PEM encoded PKCS8 2.0
encrypted key to the native gnutls_x509_privkey_t format. The
output will be stored in  @code{key} .  Both RSA and DSA keys can be
imported, and flags can only be used to indicate an unencrypted
key.

The  @code{password} can be either ASCII or UTF-8 in the default PBES2
encryption schemas, or ASCII for the PKCS12 schemas.

If the Certificate is PEM encoded it should have a header of
"ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY", or "PRIVATE KEY". You only need to
specify the flags if the key is DER encoded, since in that case
the encryption status cannot be auto-detected.

If the @code{GNUTLS_PKCS_PLAIN}  flag is specified and the supplied data
are encrypted then @code{GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED}  is returned.

@strong{Returns:} On success, @code{GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS}  (0) is returned, otherwise a
negative error value.
