.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

Title "SSL_CTX_SET_MODE 3ossl"
SSL_CTX_SET_MODE 3ossl "2023-09-19" "3.0.11" "OpenSSL"
For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.
"NAME"
SSL_CTX_set_mode, SSL_CTX_clear_mode, SSL_set_mode, SSL_clear_mode, SSL_CTX_get_mode, SSL_get_mode - manipulate SSL engine mode
"SYNOPSIS"
Header "SYNOPSIS" .Vb 1 #include <openssl/ssl.h> \& long SSL_CTX_set_mode(SSL_CTX *ctx, long mode); long SSL_CTX_clear_mode(SSL_CTX *ctx, long mode); long SSL_set_mode(SSL *ssl, long mode); long SSL_clear_mode(SSL *ssl, long mode); \& long SSL_CTX_get_mode(SSL_CTX *ctx); long SSL_get_mode(SSL *ssl); .Ve
"DESCRIPTION"
Header "DESCRIPTION" \fBSSL_CTX_set_mode() adds the mode set via bit-mask in mode to ctx. Options already set before are not cleared. \fBSSL_CTX_clear_mode() removes the mode set via bit-mask in mode from ctx.

\fBSSL_set_mode() adds the mode set via bit-mask in mode to ssl. Options already set before are not cleared. \fBSSL_clear_mode() removes the mode set via bit-mask in mode from ssl.

\fBSSL_CTX_get_mode() returns the mode set for ctx.

\fBSSL_get_mode() returns the mode set for ssl.

"NOTES"
Header "NOTES" The following mode changes are available:
"\s-1SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE\s0" 4
Item "SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE" Allow SSL_write_ex(..., n, &r) to return with 0 < r < n (i.e. report success when just a single record has been written). This works in a similar way for \fBSSL_write(). When not set (the default), SSL_write_ex() or SSL_write() will only report success once the complete chunk was written. Once SSL_write_ex() or \fBSSL_write() returns successful, r bytes have been written and the next call to SSL_write_ex() or SSL_write() must only send the n-r bytes left, imitating the behaviour of write().
"\s-1SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER\s0" 4
Item "SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER" Make it possible to retry SSL_write_ex() or SSL_write() with changed buffer location (the buffer contents must stay the same). This is not the default to avoid the misconception that nonblocking SSL_write() behaves like nonblocking write().
"\s-1SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY\s0" 4
Item "SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY" During normal operations, non-application data records might need to be sent or received that the application is not aware of. If a non-application data record was processed, \fBSSL_read_ex\|(3) and SSL_read\|(3) can return with a failure and indicate the need to retry with \s-1SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ\s0. If such a non-application data record was processed, the flag \fB\s-1SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY\s0 causes it to try to process the next record instead of returning. .Sp In a nonblocking environment applications must be prepared to handle incomplete read/write operations. Setting \s-1SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY\s0 for a nonblocking \s-1BIO\s0 will process non-application data records until either no more data is available or an application data record has been processed. .Sp In a blocking environment, applications are not always prepared to deal with the functions returning intermediate reports such as retry requests, and setting the \s-1SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY\s0 flag will cause the functions to only return after successfully processing an application data record or a failure. .Sp Turning off \s-1SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY\s0 can be useful with blocking \s-1BIO\s0s in case they are used in combination with something like select() or poll(). Otherwise the call to SSL_read() or SSL_read_ex() might hang when a non-application record was sent and no application data was sent.
"\s-1SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS\s0" 4
Item "SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS" When we no longer need a read buffer or a write buffer for a given \s-1SSL,\s0 then release the memory we were using to hold it. Using this flag can save around 34k per idle \s-1SSL\s0 connection. This flag has no effect on \s-1SSL\s0 v2 connections, or on \s-1DTLS\s0 connections.
"\s-1SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV\s0" 4
Item "SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV" Send \s-1TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV\s0 in the ClientHello. To be set only by applications that reconnect with a downgraded protocol version; see draft-ietf-tls-downgrade-scsv-00 for details. .Sp \s-1DO NOT ENABLE THIS\s0 if your application attempts a normal handshake. Only use this in explicit fallback retries, following the guidance in draft-ietf-tls-downgrade-scsv-00.
"\s-1SSL_MODE_ASYNC\s0" 4
Item "SSL_MODE_ASYNC" Enable asynchronous processing. \s-1TLS I/O\s0 operations may indicate a retry with \s-1SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC\s0 with this mode set if an asynchronous capable engine is used to perform cryptographic operations. See SSL_get_error\|(3).
"\s-1SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG\s0" 4
Item "SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG" Older versions of OpenSSL had a bug in the computation of the label length used for computing the endpoint-pair shared secret. The bug was that the terminating zero was included in the length of the label. Setting this option enables this behaviour to allow interoperability with such broken implementations. Please note that setting this option breaks interoperability with correct implementations. This option only applies to \s-1DTLS\s0 over \s-1SCTP.\s0

All modes are off by default except for \s-1SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY\s0 which is on by default since 1.1.1.

"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBSSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_set_mode() return the new mode bit-mask after adding mode.

\fBSSL_CTX_get_mode() and SSL_get_mode() return the current bit-mask.

"SEE ALSO"
Header "SEE ALSO" \fBssl\|(7), SSL_read_ex\|(3), SSL_read\|(3), SSL_write_ex\|(3) or \fBSSL_write\|(3), SSL_get_error\|(3)
"HISTORY"
Header "HISTORY" \s-1SSL_MODE_ASYNC\s0 was added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
