.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback()\fR or \fISSL_set_msg_callback()\fR can be used to
define a message callback function \fIcb\fR for observing all \s-1SSL/TLS\s0
protocol messages (such as handshake messages) that are received or
sent.  \fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR and \fISSL_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR
can be used to set argument \fIarg\fR to the callback function, which is
available for arbitrary application use.
.PP
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback()\fR and \fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR specify
default settings that will be copied to new \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR objects by
SSL_new(3). \fISSL_set_msg_callback()\fR and
\&\fISSL_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR modify the actual settings of an \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR
object. Using a \fB0\fR pointer for \fIcb\fR disables the message callback.
.PP
When \fIcb\fR is called by the \s-1SSL/TLS\s0 library for a protocol message,
the function arguments have the following meaning:
.Ip "\fIwrite_p\fR" 4
.IX Item "write_p"
This flag is \fB0\fR when a protocol message has been received and \fB1\fR
when a protocol message has been sent.
.Ip "\fIversion\fR" 4
.IX Item "version"
The protocol version according to which the protocol message is
interpreted by the library. Currently, this is one of
\&\fB\s-1SSL2_VERSION\s0\fR, \fB\s-1SSL3_VERSION\s0\fR and \fB\s-1TLS1_VERSION\s0\fR (for \s-1SSL\s0 2.0, \s-1SSL\s0
3.0 and \s-1TLS\s0 1.0, respectively).
.Ip "\fIcontent_type\fR" 4
.IX Item "content_type"
In the case of \s-1SSL\s0 2.0, this is always \fB0\fR.  In the case of \s-1SSL\s0 3.0
or \s-1TLS\s0 1.0, this is one of the \fBContentType\fR values defined in the
protocol specification (\fBchange_cipher_spec(20)\fR, \fBalert(21)\fR,
\&\fBhandshake(22)\fR; but never \fBapplication_data(23)\fR because the
callback will only be called for protocol messages).
.Ip "\fIbuf\fR, \fIlen\fR" 4
.IX Item "buf, len"
\&\fIbuf\fR points to a buffer containing the protocol message, which
consists of \fIlen\fR bytes. The buffer is no longer valid after the
callback function has returned.
.Ip "\fIssl\fR" 4
.IX Item "ssl"
The \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR object that received or sent the message.
.Ip "\fIarg\fR" 4
.IX Item "arg"
The user-defined argument optionally defined by
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR or \fISSL_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
Protocol messages are passed to the callback function after decryption
and fragment collection where applicable. (Thus record boundaries are
not visible.)
.PP
If processing a received protocol message results in an error,
the callback function may not be called.  For example, the callback
function will never see messages that are considered too large to be
processed.
.PP
Due to automatic protocol version negotiation, \fIversion\fR is not
necessarily the protocol version used by the sender of the message: If
a \s-1TLS\s0 1.0 ClientHello message is received by an \s-1SSL\s0 3.0\-only server,
\&\fIversion\fR will be \fB\s-1SSL3_VERSION\s0\fR.
