=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
For an overview of how asynchronous operations are implemented in OpenSSL see
|
|
L<ASYNC_start_job(3)>. An B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> object represents an asynchronous
|
|
"session", i.e. a related set of crypto operations. For example in SSL terms
|
|
this would have a one-to-one correspondence with an SSL connection.
|
|
|
|
Application code must create an B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> using the ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_new()
|
|
function prior to calling ASYNC_start_job() (see L<ASYNC_start_job(3)>). When
|
|
the job is started it is associated with the B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> for the duration
|
|
of that job. An B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> should only be used for one B<ASYNC_JOB> at
|
|
any one time, but can be reused after an B<ASYNC_JOB> has finished for a
|
|
subsequent B<ASYNC_JOB>. When the session is complete (e.g. the SSL connection
|
|
is closed), application code cleans up with ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_free().
|
|
|
|
B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX>s can have "wait" file descriptors associated with them.
|
|
Calling ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_all_fds() and passing in a pointer to an
|
|
B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> in the I<ctx> parameter will return the wait file descriptors
|
|
associated with that job in I<*fd>. The number of file descriptors returned will
|
|
be stored in I<*numfds>. It is the caller's responsibility to ensure that
|
|
sufficient memory has been allocated in I<*fd> to receive all the file
|
|
descriptors. Calling ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_all_fds() with a NULL I<fd> value will
|
|
return no file descriptors but will still populate I<*numfds>. Therefore,
|
|
application code is typically expected to call this function twice: once to get
|
|
the number of fds, and then again when sufficient memory has been allocated. If
|
|
only one asynchronous engine is being used then normally this call will only
|
|
ever return one fd. If multiple asynchronous engines are being used then more
|
|
could be returned.
|
|
|
|
The function ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_changed_fds() can be used to detect if any fds
|
|
have changed since the last call time ASYNC_start_job() returned B<ASYNC_PAUSE>
|
|
(or since the B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> was created if no B<ASYNC_PAUSE> result has
|
|
been received). The I<numaddfds> and I<numdelfds> parameters will be populated
|
|
with the number of fds added or deleted respectively. I<*addfd> and I<*delfd>
|
|
will be populated with the list of added and deleted fds respectively. Similarly
|
|
to ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_all_fds() either of these can be NULL, but if they are not
|
|
NULL then the caller is responsible for ensuring sufficient memory is allocated.
|
|
|
|
Implementers of async aware code (e.g. engines) are encouraged to return a
|
|
stable fd for the lifetime of the B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> in order to reduce the
|
|
"churn" of regularly changing fds - although no guarantees of this are provided
|
|
to applications.
|
|
|
|
Applications can wait for the file descriptor to be ready for "read" using a
|
|
system function call such as select or poll (being ready for "read" indicates
|
|
that the job should be resumed). If no file descriptor is made available then an
|
|
application will have to periodically "poll" the job by attempting to restart it
|
|
to see if it is ready to continue.
|
|
|
|
Async aware code (e.g. engines) can get the current B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> from the
|
|
job via L<ASYNC_get_wait_ctx(3)> and provide a file descriptor to use for
|
|
waiting on by calling ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_wait_fd(). Typically this would be done
|
|
by an engine immediately prior to calling ASYNC_pause_job() and not by end user
|
|
code. An existing association with a file descriptor can be obtained using
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_fd() and cleared using ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_clear_fd(). Both of
|
|
these functions requires a I<key> value which is unique to the async aware
|
|
code. This could be any unique value but a good candidate might be the
|
|
B<ENGINE *> for the engine. The I<custom_data> parameter can be any value, and
|
|
will be returned in a subsequent call to ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_fd(). The
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_wait_fd() function also expects a pointer to a "cleanup"
|
|
routine. This can be NULL but if provided will automatically get called when
|
|
the B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> is freed, and gives the engine the opportunity to close
|
|
the fd or any other resources. Note: The "cleanup" routine does not get called
|
|
if the fd is cleared directly via a call to ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_clear_fd().
|
|
|
|
An example of typical usage might be an async capable engine. User code would
|
|
initiate cryptographic operations. The engine would initiate those operations
|
|
asynchronously and then call ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_wait_fd() followed by
|
|
ASYNC_pause_job() to return control to the user code. The user code can then
|
|
perform other tasks or wait for the job to be ready by calling "select" or other
|
|
similar function on the wait file descriptor. The engine can signal to the user
|
|
code that the job should be resumed by making the wait file descriptor
|
|
"readable". Once resumed the engine should clear the wake signal on the wait
|
|
file descriptor.
|
|
|
|
As well as a file descriptor, user code may also be notified via a callback. The
|
|
callback and data pointers are stored within the B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX> along with an
|
|
additional status field that can be used for the notification of retries from an
|
|
engine. This additional method can be used when the user thinks that a file
|
|
descriptor is too costly in terms of CPU cycles or in some context where a file
|
|
descriptor is not appropriate.
|
|
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_callback() sets the callback and the callback argument. The
|
|
callback will be called to notify user code when an engine completes a
|
|
cryptography operation. It is a requirement that the callback function is small
|
|
and nonblocking as it will be run in the context of a polling mechanism or an
|
|
interrupt.
|
|
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_callback() returns the callback set in the B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX>
|
|
structure.
|
|
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_status() allows an engine to set the current engine status.
|
|
The possible status values are the following:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<ASYNC_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED>
|
|
|
|
The engine does not support the callback mechanism. This is the default value.
|
|
The engine must call ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_status() to set the status to some value
|
|
other than B<ASYNC_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED> if it intends to enable the callback
|
|
mechanism.
|
|
|
|
=item B<ASYNC_STATUS_ERR>
|
|
|
|
The engine has a fatal problem with this request. The user code should clean up
|
|
this session.
|
|
|
|
=item B<ASYNC_STATUS_OK>
|
|
|
|
The request has been successfully submitted.
|
|
|
|
=item B<ASYNC_STATUS_EAGAIN>
|
|
|
|
The engine has some problem which will be recovered soon, such as a buffer is
|
|
full, so user code should resume the job.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_status() allows user code to obtain the current status value.
|
|
If the status is any value other than B<ASYNC_STATUS_OK> then the user code
|
|
should not expect to receive a callback from the engine even if one has been
|
|
set.
|
|
|
|
An example of the usage of the callback method might be the following. User
|
|
code would initiate cryptographic operations, and the engine code would dispatch
|
|
this operation to hardware, and if the dispatch is successful, then the engine
|
|
code would call ASYNC_pause_job() to return control to the user code. After
|
|
that, user code can perform other tasks. When the hardware completes the
|
|
operation, normally it is detected by a polling function or an interrupt, as the
|
|
user code set a callback by calling ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_callback() previously,
|
|
then the registered callback will be called.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_new() returns a pointer to the newly allocated B<ASYNC_WAIT_CTX>
|
|
or NULL on error.
|
|
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_wait_fd, ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_fd, ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_all_fds,
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_changed_fds, ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_clear_fd,
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_callback, ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_callback and
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_set_status all return 1 on success or 0 on error.
|
|
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_get_status() returns the engine status.

=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
On Windows platforms the F<< <openssl/async.h> >> header is dependent on some
|
|
of the types customarily made available by including F<< <windows.h> >>. The
|
|
application developer is likely to require control over when the latter
|
|
is included, commonly as one of the first included headers. Therefore,
|
|
it is defined as an application developer's responsibility to include
|
|
F<< <windows.h> >> prior to F<< <openssl/async.h> >>.
