+
+ long SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx,
+                                   int (*cb)(SSL *, int *, void *));
+ long SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg(SSL_CTX *ctx, void *arg);

+ const char *SSL_get_servername(const SSL *s, const int type);
+ int SSL_get_servername_type(const SSL *s);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback() sets the application callback B<cb>
+used by a server to perform any actions or configuration required based on
+the servername extension received in the incoming connection. When B<cb>
+is NULL, SNI is not used. The B<arg> value is a pointer which is passed to
+the application callback.
+
+SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg() sets a context-specific argument to be
+passed into the callback for this B<SSL_CTX>.
+
+SSL_get_servername() returns a servername extension value of the specified
+type if provided in the Client Hello or NULL.
+
+SSL_get_servername_type() returns the servername type or -1 if no servername
+is present. Currently the only supported type (defined in RFC3546) is
+B<TLSEXT_NAMETYPE_host_name>.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The ALPN and SNI callbacks are both executed during Client Hello processing.
+The servername callback is executed first, followed by the ALPN callback.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback() and
+SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg() both always return 1 indicating success.
