20 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | ||
21 | .Fn SSL_CTX_set_mode | ||
22 | adds the mode set via bitmask in | ||
23 | .Fa mode | ||
24 | to | ||
25 | .Fa ctx . | ||
26 | Options already set before are not cleared. | ||
27 | .Pp | ||
28 | .Fn SSL_set_mode | ||
29 | adds the mode set via bitmask in | ||
30 | .Fa mode | ||
31 | to | ||
32 | .Fa ssl . | ||
33 | Options already set before are not cleared. | ||
34 | .Pp | ||
35 | .Fn SSL_CTX_get_mode | ||
36 | returns the mode set for | ||
37 | .Fa ctx . | ||
38 | .Pp | ||
39 | .Fn SSL_get_mode | ||
40 | returns the mode set for | ||
41 | .Fa ssl . | ||
42 | .Sh NOTES | ||
43 | The following mode changes are available: | ||
44 | .Bl -tag -width Ds | ||
45 | .It Dv SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE | ||
46 | Allow | ||
47 | .Fn SSL_write ... n | ||
48 | to return | ||
49 | .Ms r | ||
50 | with | ||
51 | .EQ | ||
52 | 0 < r < n | ||
53 | .EN | ||
54 | (i.e., report success when just a single record has been written). | ||
55 | When not set (the default), | ||
56 | .Xr SSL_write 3 | ||
57 | will only report success once the complete chunk was written. | ||
58 | Once | ||
59 | .Xr SSL_write 3 | ||
60 | returns with | ||
61 | .Ms r , | ||
62 | .Ms r | ||
63 | bytes have been successfully written and the next call to | ||
64 | .Xr SSL_write 3 | ||
65 | must only send the | ||
66 | .Ms n \(mi r | ||
67 | bytes left, imitating the behaviour of | ||
68 | .Xr write 2 . | ||
69 | .It Dv SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER | ||
70 | Make it possible to retry | ||
71 | .Xr SSL_write 3 | ||
72 | with changed buffer location (the buffer contents must stay the same). | ||
73 | This is not the default to avoid the misconception that non-blocking | ||
74 | .Xr SSL_write 3 | ||
75 | behaves like non-blocking | ||
76 | .Xr write 2 . | ||
77 | .It Dv SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY | ||
78 | Never bother the application with retries if the transport is blocking. | ||
79 | If a renegotiation take place during normal operation, a | ||
80 | .Xr SSL_read 3 | ||
81 | or | ||
82 | .Xr SSL_write 3 | ||
83 | would return | ||
84 | with \(mi1 and indicate the need to retry with | ||
85 | .Dv SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ . | ||
86 | In a non-blocking environment applications must be prepared to handle | ||
87 | incomplete read/write operations. | ||
88 | In a blocking environment, applications are not always prepared to deal with | ||
89 | read/write operations returning without success report. | ||
90 | The flag | ||
91 | .Dv SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY | ||
92 | will cause read/write operations to only return after the handshake and | ||
93 | successful completion. | ||
94 | .It Dv SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS | ||
95 | When we no longer need a read buffer or a write buffer for a given | ||
96 | .Vt SSL , | ||
97 | then release the memory we were using to hold it. | ||
98 | Released memory is either appended to a list of unused RAM chunks on the | ||
99 | .Vt SSL_CTX , | ||
100 | or simply freed if the list of unused chunks would become longer than | ||
101 | .Va "SSL_CTX->freelist_max_len" , | ||
102 | which defaults to 32. | ||
103 | Using this flag can save around 34k per idle SSL connection. | ||
104 | This flag has no effect on SSL v2 connections, or on DTLS connections. | ||

106 | .Sh RETURN VALUES | ||
107 | .Fn SSL_CTX_set_mode | ||
108 | and | ||
109 | .Fn SSL_set_mode | ||
110 | return the new mode bitmask after adding | ||
111 | .Fa mode . | ||
112 | .Pp | ||
113 | .Fn SSL_CTX_get_mode | ||
114 | and | ||
115 | .Fn SSL_get_mode | ||
116 | return the current bitmask. | ||
