NAME

       SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo, SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo_file - use serverinfo
       extension


SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        int SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo(SSL_CTX *ctx, const unsigned char *serverinfo,
                                   size_t serverinfo_length);

        int SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo_file(SSL_CTX *ctx, const char *file);


DESCRIPTION

       These functions load "serverinfo" TLS ServerHello Extensions into the
       SSL_CTX.  A "serverinfo" extension is returned in response to an empty
       ClientHello Extension.

       SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo() loads one or more serverinfo extensions from a
       byte array into ctx.  The extensions must be concatenated into a
       sequence of bytes.  Each extension must consist of a 2-byte Extension
       Type, a 2-byte length, and then length bytes of extension_data.

       SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo_file() loads one or more serverinfo extensions
       from file into ctx.  The extensions must be in PEM format.  Each exten-
       sion must consist of a 2-byte Extension Type, a 2-byte length, and then
       length bytes of extension_data.  Each PEM extension name must begin
       with the phrase "BEGIN SERVERINFO FOR ".

       If more than one certificate (RSA/DSA) is installed using
       SSL_CTX_use_certificate(), the serverinfo extension will be loaded into
       the last certificate installed.  If e.g. the last item was a RSA cer-
       tificate, the loaded serverinfo extension data will be loaded for that
       certificate.  To use the serverinfo extension for multiple certifi-
       cates, SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo() needs to be called multiple times, once
       after each time a certificate is loaded.


NOTES


RETURN VALUES

       On success, the functions return 1.  On failure, the functions return
       0.  Check out the error stack to find out the reason.
