4*4724848cSchristos
5*4724848cSchristosSSL_set_shutdown, SSL_get_shutdown - manipulate shutdown state of an SSL connection

7*4724848cSchristos=head1 SYNOPSIS
8*4724848cSchristos
9*4724848cSchristos #include <openssl/ssl.h>
10*4724848cSchristos
11*4724848cSchristos void SSL_set_shutdown(SSL *ssl, int mode);
12*4724848cSchristos
13*4724848cSchristos int SSL_get_shutdown(const SSL *ssl);

15*4724848cSchristos=head1 DESCRIPTION
16*4724848cSchristos
17*4724848cSchristosSSL_set_shutdown() sets the shutdown state of B<ssl> to B<mode>.
18*4724848cSchristos
19*4724848cSchristosSSL_get_shutdown() returns the shutdown mode of B<ssl>.

21*4724848cSchristos=head1 NOTES
22*4724848cSchristos
23*4724848cSchristosThe shutdown state of an ssl connection is a bit mask of:
24*4724848cSchristos
25*4724848cSchristos=over 4
26*4724848cSchristos
27*4724848cSchristos=item Z<>0
28*4724848cSchristos
29*4724848cSchristosNo shutdown setting, yet.
30*4724848cSchristos
31*4724848cSchristos=item SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN
32*4724848cSchristos
33*4724848cSchristosA close_notify shutdown alert was sent to the peer, the connection is being
34*4724848cSchristosconsidered closed and the session is closed and correct.
35*4724848cSchristos
36*4724848cSchristos=item SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN
37*4724848cSchristos
38*4724848cSchristosA shutdown alert was received form the peer, either a normal close_notify
39*4724848cSchristosor a fatal error.
40*4724848cSchristos
41*4724848cSchristos=back
42*4724848cSchristos
43*4724848cSchristosSSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN and SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN can be set at the same time.
44*4724848cSchristos
45*4724848cSchristosThe shutdown state of the connection is used to determine the state of
46*4724848cSchristosthe ssl session. If the session is still open, when
47*4724848cSchristosL<SSL_clear(3)> or L<SSL_free(3)> is called,
48*4724848cSchristosit is considered bad and removed according to RFC2246.
49*4724848cSchristosThe actual condition for a correctly closed session is SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN
50*4724848cSchristos(according to the TLS RFC, it is acceptable to only send the close_notify
51*4724848cSchristosalert but to not wait for the peer's answer, when the underlying connection
52*4724848cSchristosis closed).
53*4724848cSchristosSSL_set_shutdown() can be used to set this state without sending a
54*4724848cSchristosclose alert to the peer (see L<SSL_shutdown(3)>).
55*4724848cSchristos
56*4724848cSchristosIf a close_notify was received, SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN will be set,
57*4724848cSchristosfor setting SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN the application must however still call
58*4724848cSchristosL<SSL_shutdown(3)> or SSL_set_shutdown() itself.

60*4724848cSchristos=head1 RETURN VALUES
61*4724848cSchristos
62*4724848cSchristosSSL_set_shutdown() does not return diagnostic information.
63*4724848cSchristos
64*4724848cSchristosSSL_get_shutdown() returns the current setting.
