28=head1 DESCRIPTION
29
30SSL_CTX_set_set_session_ticket_cb() sets the application callbacks B<gen_cb>
31and B<dec_cb> that are used by a server to set and get application data stored
32with a session, and placed into a session ticket. Either callback function may
33be set to NULL. The value of B<arg> is passed to the callbacks.
34
35B<gen_cb> is the application defined callback invoked when a session ticket is
36about to be created. The application can call SSL_SESSION_set1_ticket_appdata()
37at this time to add application data to the session ticket. The value of B<arg>
38is the same as that given to SSL_CTX_set_session_ticket_cb(). The B<gen_cb>
39callback is defined as type B<SSL_CTX_generate_session_ticket_fn>.
40
41B<dec_cb> is the application defined callback invoked after session ticket
42decryption has been attempted and any session ticket application data is
43available. If ticket decryption was successful then the B<ss> argument contains
44the session data. The B<keyname> and B<keyname_len> arguments identify the key
45used to decrypt the session ticket. The B<status> argument is the result of the
46ticket decryption. See the L<NOTES> section below for further details. The value
47of B<arg> is the same as that given to SSL_CTX_set_session_ticket_cb(). The
48B<dec_cb> callback is defined as type B<SSL_CTX_decrypt_session_ticket_fn>.
49
50SSL_SESSION_set1_ticket_appdata() sets the application data specified by
51B<data> and B<len> into B<ss> which is then placed into any generated session
52tickets. It can be called at any time before a session ticket is created to
53update the data placed into the session ticket. However, given that sessions
54and tickets are created by the handshake, the B<gen_cb> is provided to notify
55the application that a session ticket is about to be generated.
56
57SSL_SESSION_get0_ticket_appdata() assigns B<data> to the session ticket
58application data and assigns B<len> to the length of the session ticket
59application data from B<ss>. The application data can be set via
60SSL_SESSION_set1_ticket_appdata() or by a session ticket. NULL will be assigned
61to B<data> and 0 will be assigned to B<len> if there is no session ticket
62application data. SSL_SESSION_get0_ticket_appdata() can be called any time
63after a session has been created. The B<dec_cb> is provided to notify the
64application that a session ticket has just been decrypted.
65
66=head1 NOTES
67
68When the B<dec_cb> callback is invoked, the SSL_SESSION B<ss> has not yet been
69assigned to the SSL B<s>. The B<status> indicates the result of the ticket
70decryption. The callback must check the B<status> value before performing any
71action, as it is called even if ticket decryption fails.
72
73The B<keyname> and B<keyname_len> arguments to B<dec_cb> may be used to identify
74the key that was used to encrypt the session ticket.
75
76The B<status> argument can be any of these values:
77
78=over 4
79
80=item SSL_TICKET_EMPTY
81
82Empty ticket present. No ticket data will be used and a new ticket should be
83sent to the client. This only occurs in TLSv1.2 or below. In TLSv1.3 it is not
84valid for a client to send an empty ticket.
85
86=item SSL_TICKET_NO_DECRYPT
87
88The ticket couldn't be decrypted. No ticket data will be used and a new ticket
89should be sent to the client.
90
91=item SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS
92
93A ticket was successfully decrypted, any session ticket application data should
94be available. A new ticket should not be sent to the client.
95
96=item SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS_RENEW
97
98Same as B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS>, but a new ticket should be sent to the client.
99
100=back
101
102The return value can be any of these values:
103
104=over 4
105
106=item SSL_TICKET_RETURN_ABORT
107
108The handshake should be aborted, either because of an error or because of some
109policy. Note that in TLSv1.3 a client may send more than one ticket in a single
110handshake. Therefore, just because one ticket is unacceptable it does not mean
111that all of them are. For this reason this option should be used with caution.
112
113=item SSL_TICKET_RETURN_IGNORE
114
115Do not use a ticket (if one was available). Do not send a renewed ticket to the
116client.
117
118=item SSL_TICKET_RETURN_IGNORE_RENEW
119
120Do not use a ticket (if one was available). Send a renewed ticket to the client.
121
122If the callback does not wish to change the default ticket behaviour then it
123should return this value if B<status> is B<SSL_TICKET_EMPTY> or
124B<SSL_TICKET_NO_DECRYPT>.
125
126=item SSL_TICKET_RETURN_USE
127
128Use the ticket. Do not send a renewed ticket to the client. It is an error for
129the callback to return this value if B<status> has a value other than
130B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS> or B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS_RENEW>.
131
132If the callback does not wish to change the default ticket behaviour then it
133should return this value if B<status> is B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS>.
134
135=item SSL_TICKET_RETURN_USE_RENEW
136
137Use the ticket. Send a renewed ticket to the client. It is an error for the
138callback to return this value if B<status> has a value other than
139B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS> or B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS_RENEW>.
140
141If the callback does not wish to change the default ticket behaviour then it
142should return this value if B<status> is B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS_RENEW>.
143
144=back
145
146If B<status> has the value B<SSL_TICKET_EMPTY> or B<SSL_TICKET_NO_DECRYPT> then
147no session data will be available and the callback must not use the B<ss>
148argument. If B<status> has the value B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS> or
149B<SSL_TICKET_SUCCESS_RENEW> then the application can call
150SSL_SESSION_get0_ticket_appdata() using the session provided in the B<ss>
151argument to retrieve the application data.
152
153When the B<gen_cb> callback is invoked, the SSL_get_session() function can be
154used to retrieve the SSL_SESSION for SSL_SESSION_set1_ticket_appdata().
155
156By default, in TLSv1.2 and below, a new session ticket is not issued on a
157successful resumption and therefore B<gen_cb> will not be called. In TLSv1.3 the
158default behaviour is to always issue a new ticket on resumption. In both cases
159this behaviour can be changed if a ticket key callback is in use (see
160L<SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_cb(3)>).
161
162=head1 RETURN VALUES
163
164The SSL_CTX_set_session_ticket_cb(), SSL_SESSION_set1_ticket_appdata() and
165SSL_SESSION_get0_ticket_appdata() functions return 1 on success and 0 on
166failure.
167
168The B<gen_cb> callback must return 1 to continue the connection. A return of 0
169will terminate the connection with an INTERNAL_ERROR alert.
170
171The B<dec_cb> callback must return a value as described in L<NOTES> above.
