NAME

SSL_accept − wait for a TLS/SSL client to initiate a TLS/SSL handshake

SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/ssl.h>
 int SSL_accept(SSL *ssl);

DESCRIPTION

SSL_accept() waits for a TLS/SSL client to initiate the TLS/SSL handshake. The communication channel must already have been set and assigned to the ssl by setting an underlying BIO .

NOTES

The behaviour of SSL_accept() depends on the underlying BIO .

If the underlying BIO is blocking, SSL_accept() will only return once the handshake has been finished or an error occurred, except for SGC (Server Gated Cryptography). For SGC , SSL_accept() may return with −1, but SSL_get_error() will yield SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ/WRITE and SSL_accept() should be called again.

If the underlying BIO is non-blocking, SSL_accept() will also return when the underlying BIO could not satisfy the needs of SSL_accept() to continue the handshake. In this case a call to SSL_get_error() with the return value of SSL_accept() will yield SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ or SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE . The calling process then must repeat the call after taking appropriate action to satisfy the needs of SSL_accept(). The action depends on the underlying BIO . When using a non-blocking socket, nothing is to be done, but select() can be used to check for the required condition. When using a buffering BIO , like a BIO pair, data must be written into or retrieved out of the BIO before being able to continue.

RETURN VALUES

The following return values can occur:

1

The TLS/SSL handshake was successfully completed, a TLS/SSL connection has been established.

0

The TLS/SSL handshake was not successful but was shut down controlled and by the specifications of the TLS/SSL protocol. Call SSL_get_error() with the return value ret to find out the reason.

<0

The TLS/SSL handshake was not successful because a fatal error occurred either at the protocol level or a connection failure occurred. The shutdown was not clean. It can also occur of action is need to continue the operation for non-blocking BIOs. Call SSL_get_error() with the return value ret to find out the reason.
