DESCRIPTION

21       This  function  will load a file into a datum. The data are zero termi‐
22       nated but the terminating null is not included in length.  The returned
23       data are allocated using gnutls_malloc().
24
25       Note  that  this function is not designed for reading sensitive materi‐
26       als, such as private keys, on practical applications. When the  reading
27       fails  in the middle, the partially loaded content might remain on mem‐
28       ory.
