The setting for .Fa ctx is overridden from the setting for a specific SSL object, if specified. When .Fa callback is .Dv NULL , no callback function is used. .Pp .Fn SSL_set_info_callback sets the .Fa callback function that can be used to obtain state information for .Fa ssl during connection setup and use. When .Fa callback is .Dv NULL , the callback setting currently valid for .Fa ctx is used. .Pp .Fn SSL_CTX_get_info_callback returns a pointer to the currently set information callback function for .Fa ctx . .Pp .Fn SSL_get_info_callback returns a pointer to the currently set information callback function for .Fa ssl . .Sh NOTES When setting up a connection and during use, it is possible to obtain state information from the SSL/TLS engine. When set, an information callback function is called whenever the state changes, an alert appears, or an error occurs. .Pp The callback function is called as .Fn callback "SSL *ssl" "int where" "int ret" . The .Fa where argument specifies information about where (in which context) the callback function was called. If .Fa ret is 0, an error condition occurred. If an alert is handled, .Dv SSL_CB_ALERT is set and .Fa ret specifies the alert information. .Pp .Fa where is a bitmask made up of the following bits: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Dv SSL_CB_LOOP Callback has been called to indicate state change inside a loop. .It Dv SSL_CB_EXIT Callback has been called to indicate error exit of a handshake function. (May be soft error with retry option for non-blocking setups.) .It Dv SSL_CB_READ Callback has been called during read operation. .It Dv SSL_CB_WRITE Callback has been called during write operation. .It Dv SSL_CB_ALERT Callback has been called due to an alert being sent or received. .It Dv SSL_CB_READ_ALERT .It Dv SSL_CB_WRITE_ALERT .It Dv SSL_CB_ACCEPT_LOOP .It Dv SSL_CB_ACCEPT_EXIT .It Dv SSL_CB_CONNECT_LOOP .It Dv SSL_CB_CONNECT_EXIT .It Dv SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START Callback has been called because a new handshake is started. .It Dv SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE Callback has been called because a handshake is finished. .El .Pp The current state information can be obtained using the .Xr SSL_state_string 3 family of functions. .Pp The .Fa ret information can be evaluated using the .Xr SSL_alert_type_string 3 family of functions. .Sh RETURN VALUES .Fn SSL_set_info_callback does not provide diagnostic information. .Pp .Fn SSL_get_info_callback returns the current setting. .Sh EXAMPLES The following example callback function prints state strings, information about alerts being handled and error messages to the .Va bio_err .Vt BIO . .Bd -literal void apps_ssl_info_callback(SSL *s, int where, int ret) { const char *str; int w; w = where & ~SSL_ST_MASK; if (w & SSL_ST_CONNECT) str = "SSL_connect"; else if (w & SSL_ST_ACCEPT) str = "SSL_accept"; else str = "undefined"; if (where & SSL_CB_LOOP) { BIO_printf(bio_err, "%s:%s\en", str, SSL_state_string_long(s)); } else if (where & SSL_CB_ALERT) { str = (where & SSL_CB_READ) ? "read" : "write"; BIO_printf(bio_err, "SSL3 alert %s:%s:%s\en", str, SSL_alert_type_string_long(ret), SSL_alert_desc_string_long(ret)); } else if (where & SSL_CB_EXIT) { if (ret == 0) BIO_printf(bio_err, "%s:failed in %s\en", str, SSL_state_string_long(s)); else if (ret < 0) { BIO_printf(bio_err, "%s:error in %s\en", str, SSL_state_string_long(s)); } } } .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr ssl 3 , .Xr SSL_alert_type_string 3 , .Xr SSL_state_string 3
