+@deftypefun {int} {gnutls_privkey_sign_hash2} (gnutls_privkey_t @var{signer}, gnutls_sign_algorithm_t @var{algo}, unsigned int @var{flags}, const gnutls_datum_t * @var{hash_data}, gnutls_datum_t * @var{signature})
+@var{signer}: Holds the signer's key
+
+@var{algo}: The signature algorithm used
+
+@var{flags}: Zero or one of @code{gnutls_privkey_flags_t}
+
+@var{hash_data}: holds the data to be signed
+
+@var{signature}: will contain newly allocated signature
+
+This function will sign the given hashed data using the specified signature
+algorithm. This function is an enhancement of @code{gnutls_privkey_sign_hash()} ,
+as it allows utilizing a alternative signature algorithm where possible
+(e.g, use an RSA key with RSA-PSS).
+
+The flags may be @code{GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_SIGN_FLAG_TLS1_RSA} .
+In that case this function will ignore @code{hash_algo} and perform a raw PKCS1 signature.
+Note that this flag is supported since 3.6.9.
+
+Note also that, not all algorithm support signing already hashed data. When
+signing with Ed25519, @code{gnutls_privkey_sign_data2()} should be used instead.
+
+@strong{Returns:} On success, @code{GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS} (0) is returned, otherwise a
+negative error value.
+
+@strong{Since:} 3.6.0
