PUSHSSL 2
NAME
pushssl - attach SSL version 2 encryption to a communication channel
SYNOPSIS
#include <u.h> #include <libc.h>
int pushssl(int fd, char *alg, char *secin, char *secout, int *cfd)
DESCRIPTION
Pushssl opens an
ssl (3) device, connects it to the communications channel
fd , and starts up encryption and message authentication as specified
in
alg . The algorithms are separated by a space and either can be first.
See
ssl (3) for the possible algorithms.
Secin and
secout contain the encryption keys for the two directions.
If either is nil, the other is used in both directions.
If
cfd is non-nil, the SSL control channel is opened and its fd
returned.
Pushssl returns a file descriptor for the SSL data channel. Anything written to this descriptor will get encrypted and authenticated and then written to the file descriptor, fd .
