=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_async_callback() sets an asynchronous callback function. All B<SSL>
|
|
objects generated based on this B<SSL_CTX> will get this callback. If an engine
|
|
supports the callback mechanism, it will be automatically called if
|
|
B<SSL_MODE_ASYNC> has been set and an asynchronous capable engine completes a
|
|
cryptography operation to notify the application to resume the paused work flow.
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_async_callback_arg() sets the callback argument.
|
|
|
|
SSL_set_async_callback() allows an application to set a callback in an
|
|
asynchronous B<SSL> object, so that when an engine completes a cryptography
|
|
operation, the callback will be called to notify the application to resume the
|
|
paused work flow.
|
|
|
|
SSL_set_async_callback_arg() sets an argument for the B<SSL> object when the
|
|
above callback is called.
|
|
|
|
SSL_get_async_status() returns the engine status. This function facilitates the
|
|
communication from the engine to the application. During an SSL session,
|
|
cryptographic operations are dispatched to an engine. The engine status is very
|
|
useful for an application to know if the operation has been successfully
|
|
dispatched. If the engine does not support this additional callback method,
|
|
B<ASYNC_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED> will be returned. See ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_status()
|
|
for a description of all of the status values.
|
|
|
|
An example of the above functions would be the following:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item 1.
|
|
|
|
Application sets the async callback and callback data on an SSL connection
|
|
by calling SSL_set_async_callback().
|
|
|
|
=item 2.
|
|
|
|
Application sets B<SSL_MODE_ASYNC> and makes an asynchronous SSL call
|
|
|
|
=item 3.
|
|
|
|
OpenSSL submits the asynchronous request to the engine. If a retry occurs at
|
|
this point then the status within the B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> would be set and the
|
|
async callback function would be called (goto Step 7).
|
|
|
|
=item 4.
|
|
|
|
The OpenSSL engine pauses the current job and returns, so that the
|
|
application can continue processing other connections.
|
|
|
|
=item 5.
|
|
|
|
At a future point in time (probably via a polling mechanism or via an
|
|
interrupt) the engine will become aware that the asynchronous request has
|
|
finished processing.
|
|
|
|
=item 6.
|
|
|
|
The engine will call the application's callback passing the callback data as
|
|
a parameter.
|
|
|
|
=item 7.
|
|
|
|
The callback function should then run. Note: it is a requirement that the
|
|
callback function is small and non-blocking as it will be run in the context of
|
|
a polling mechanism or an interrupt.
|
|
|
|
=item 8.
|
|
|
|
It is the application's responsibility via the callback function to schedule
|
|
recalling the OpenSSL asynchronous function and to continue processing.
|
|
|
|
=item 9.
|
|
|
|
The callback function has the option to check the status returned via
|
|
SSL_get_async_status() to determine whether a retry happened instead of the
|
|
request being submitted, allowing different processing if required.
