                                                                const unsigned
                                                                char *cookie,

DESCRIPTION

SSL_CTX_set_stateless_cookie_generate_cb() sets the callback used by SSL_stateless(3) to generate the application-controlled portion of the cookie provided to clients in the HelloRetryRequest transmitted as a response to a ClientHello with a missing or invalid cookie. gen_stateless_cookie_cb() must write at most SSL_COOKIE_LENGTH bytes into cookie, and must write the number of bytes written to cookie_len. If a cookie cannot be generated, a zero return value can be used to abort the handshake.

SSL_CTX_set_stateless_cookie_verify_cb() sets the callback used by SSL_stateless(3) to determine whether the application-controlled portion of a ClientHello cookie is valid. The cookie data is pointed to by cookie and is of length cookie_len. A nonzero return value from verify_stateless_cookie_cb() communicates that the cookie is valid. The integrity of the entire cookie, including the application-controlled portion, is automatically verified by HMAC before verify_stateless_cookie_cb() is called.

SSL_CTX_set_cookie_generate_cb() sets the callback used by DTLSv1_listen(3) to generate the cookie provided to clients in the HelloVerifyRequest transmitted as a response to a ClientHello with a missing or invalid cookie. app_gen_cookie_cb() must write at most DTLS1_COOKIE_LENGTH bytes into cookie, and must write the number of bytes written to cookie_len. If a cookie cannot be generated, a zero return value can be used to abort the handshake.

SSL_CTX_set_cookie_verify_cb() sets the callback used by DTLSv1_listen(3) to determine whether the cookie in a ClientHello is valid. The cookie data is pointed to by cookie and is of length cookie_len. A nonzero return value from app_verify_cookie_cb() communicates that the cookie is valid. The integrity of the cookie is not verified by OpenSSL. This is an application responsibility.

RETURN VALUES

Neither function returns a value.

HISTORY
