SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode(3SSL)         OpenSSL         SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode(3SSL)



NAME
       SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode, SSL_CTX_get_session_cache_mode - enable/disable session
       caching

SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        long SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode(SSL_CTX ctx, long mode);
        long SSL_CTX_get_session_cache_mode(SSL_CTX ctx);

DESCRIPTION
       SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode() enables/disables session caching by setting the
       operational mode for ctx to <mode>.

       SSL_CTX_get_session_cache_mode() returns the currently used cache mode.

NOTES
       The OpenSSL library can store/retrieve SSL/TLS sessions for later reuse.  The sessions can
       be held in memory for each ctx, if more than one SSL_CTX object is being maintained, the
       sessions are unique for each SSL_CTX object.

       In order to reuse a session, a client must send the session's id to the server. It can
       only send exactly one id.  The server then either agrees to reuse the session or it starts
       a full handshake (to create a new session).

       A server will lookup up the session in its internal session storage. If the session is not
       found in internal storage or lookups for the internal storage have been deactivated
       (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP), the server will try the external storage if
       available.

       Since a client may try to reuse a session intended for use in a different context, the
       session id context must be set by the server (see SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context(3)).

       The following session cache modes and modifiers are available:

       SSL_SESS_CACHE_OFF
           No session caching for client or server takes place.

       SSL_SESS_CACHE_CLIENT
           Client sessions are added to the session cache. As there is no reliable way for the
           OpenSSL library to know whether a session should be reused or which session to choose
           (due to the abstract BIO layer the SSL engine does not have details about the
           connection), the application must select the session to be reused by using the
           SSL_set_session(3) function. This option is not activated by default.

       SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER
           Server sessions are added to the session cache. When a client proposes a session to be
           reused, the server looks for the corresponding session in (first) the internal session
           cache (unless SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP is set), then (second) in the external
           cache if available. If the session is found, the server will try to reuse the session.
           This is the default.

       SSL_SESS_CACHE_BOTH
           Enable both SSL_SESS_CACHE_CLIENT and SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER at the same time.

       SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_AUTO_CLEAR
           Normally the session cache is checked for expired sessions every 255 connections using
           the SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(3) function. Since this may lead to a delay which cannot be
           controlled, the automatic flushing may be disabled and SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(3) can
           be called explicitly by the application.

       SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
           By setting this flag, session-resume operations in an SSL/TLS server will not
           automatically look up sessions in the internal cache, even if sessions are
           automatically stored there. If external session caching callbacks are in use, this
           flag guarantees that all lookups are directed to the external cache.  As automatic
           lookup only applies for SSL/TLS servers, the flag has no effect on clients.

       SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE
           Depending on the presence of SSL_SESS_CACHE_CLIENT and/or SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER,
           sessions negotiated in an SSL/TLS handshake may be cached for possible reuse.
           Normally a new session is added to the internal cache as well as any external session
           caching (callback) that is configured for the SSL_CTX. This flag will prevent sessions
           being stored in the internal cache (though the application can add them manually using
           SSL_CTX_add_session(3)). Note: in any SSL/TLS servers where external caching is
           configured, any successful session lookups in the external cache (ie. for session-
           resume requests) would normally be copied into the local cache before processing
           continues - this flag prevents these additions to the internal cache as well.

       SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL
           Enable both SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP and SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE at
           the same time.

       The default mode is SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER.

RETURN VALUES
       SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode() returns the previously set cache mode.

       SSL_CTX_get_session_cache_mode() returns the currently set cache mode.
