The argument supplied when setting the callback is passed back to the callback at runtime. A callback that returns failure (0) will cause the connection to terminate, and callbacks returning failure should indicate what alert value is to be sent in the B parameter. A callback may also return a negative value to suspend the handshake, and the handshake function will return immediately. L will return SSL_ERROR_WANT_EARLY to indicate that the handshake was suspended. It is the job of the early callback to store information about the state of the last call if needed to continue. On the next call into the handshake function, the early callback will be called again, and, if it returns success, normal handshake processing will continue from that point. SSL_early_isv2() indicates whether the ClientHello was carried in a SSLv2 record and is in the SSLv2 format. The SSLv2 format has substantial differences from the normal SSLv3 format, including using three bytes per cipher suite, and not allowing extensions. Additionally, the SSLv2 format 'challenge' field is exposed via SSL_early_get0_random(), padded to SSL3_RANDOM_SIZE bytes with zeros if needed. For SSLv2 format ClientHellos, SSL_early_get0_compression_methods() returns a dummy list that only includes the null compression method, since the SSLv2 format does not include a mechanism by which to negotiate compression. SSL_early_get0_random(), SSL_early_get0_session_id(), SSL_early_get0_ciphers(), and SSL_early_get0_compression_methods() provide access to the corresponding ClientHello fields, returning the field length and optionally setting an out pointer to the octets of that field. Similarly, SSL_early_get0_ext() provides access to individual extensions from the ClientHello on a per-extension basis. For the provided wire protocol extension type value, the extension value and length are returned in the output parameters (if present). =head1 NOTES The early callback provides a vast window of possibilities for application code to affect the TLS handshake. A primary use of the callback is to allow the server to examine the server name indication extension provided by the client in order to select an appropriate certificate to present, and make other configuration adjustments relevant to that server name and its configuration. Such configuration changes can include swapping out the associated SSL_CTX pointer, modifying the server's list of permitted TLS versions, changing the server's cipher list, etc. It is also recommended that applications utilize an early callback and not use a servername callback, in order to avoid unexpected behavior that occurs due to the relative order of processing between things like session resumption and the historical servername callback. The SSL_early_* family of functions may only be called from code executing within an early callback. =head1 RETURN VALUES The application's supplied early callback returns 1 on success, 0 on failure, and a negative value to suspend processing. SSL_early_isv2() returns 1 for SSLv2-format ClientHellos and 0 otherwise. SSL_early_get0_random(), SSL_early_get0_session_id(), SSL_early_get0_ciphers(), and SSL_early_get0_compression_methods() return the length of the corresponding ClientHello fields. If zero is returned, the ouput pointer should not be assumed to be valid. SSL_early_get0_ext() returns 1 if the extension of type 'type' is present, and 0 otherwise. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L =head1 HISTORY The SSL early callback, SSL_early_isv2(), SSL_early_get0_random(), SSL_early_get0_session_id(), SSL_early_get0_ciphers(), SSL_early_get0_compression_methods(), and SSL_early_get0_ext() were added in OpenSSL 1.1.1. =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright 2017 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
