SSL_SET_SESSION(3) OpenSSL SSL_SET_SESSION(3)
SSL_set_session - set a TLS/SSL session to be used during
TLS/SSL connect
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int SSL_set_session(SSL *ssl, SSL_SESSION *session);
SSL_set_session() sets session to be used when the TLS/SSL
connection is to be established. SSL_set_session() is only
useful for TLS/SSL clients. When the session is set, the
reference count of session is incremented by 1. If the ses-
sion is not reused, the reference count is decremented again
during SSL_connect(). Whether the session was reused can be
queried with the SSL_session_reused(3) call.
If there is already a session set inside ssl (because it was
set with SSL_set_session() before or because the same ssl
was already used for a connection), SSL_SESSION_free() will
be called for that session.
SSL_SESSION objects keep internal link information about the
session cache list, when being inserted into one SSL_CTX
object's session cache. One SSL_SESSION object, regardless
of its reference count, must therefore only be used with one
SSL_CTX object (and the SSL objects created from this
SSL_CTX object).
The following return values can occur:
0 The operation failed; check the error stack to find out
the reason.
1 The operation succeeded.
