SSL_CTX_set_mode(3)		    OpenSSL		   SSL_CTX_set_mode(3)

NAME
       SSL_CTX_set_mode, SSL_set_mode, SSL_CTX_get_mode, SSL_get_mode -
       manipulate SSL engine mode

LIBRARY
       libcrypto, -lcrypto

SYNOPSIS
	#include <openssl/ssl.h>

	long SSL_CTX_set_mode(SSL_CTX *ctx, long mode);
	long SSL_set_mode(SSL *ssl, long mode);

	long SSL_CTX_get_mode(SSL_CTX *ctx);
	long SSL_get_mode(SSL *ssl);

DESCRIPTION
       SSL_CTX_set_mode() adds the mode set via bitmask in mode to ctx.
       Options already set before are not cleared.

       SSL_set_mode() adds the mode set via bitmask in mode to ssl.  Options
       already set before are not cleared.

       SSL_CTX_get_mode() returns the mode set for ctx.

       SSL_get_mode() returns the mode set for ssl.

NOTES
       The following mode changes are available:

       SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE
	   Allow SSL_write(..., n) to return r with 0 < r < n (i.e. report
	   success when just a single record has been written). When not set
	   (the default), SSL_write() will only report success once the
	   complete chunk was written.	Once SSL_write() returns with r, r
	   bytes have been successfully written and the next call to
	   SSL_write() must only send the n-r bytes left, imitating the
	   behaviour of write().

       SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER
	   Make it possible to retry SSL_write() with changed buffer location
	   (the buffer contents must stay the same). This is not the default
	   to avoid the misconception that non-blocking SSL_write() behaves
	   like non-blocking write().

       SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY
	   Never bother the application with retries if the transport is
	   blocking.  If a renegotiation take place during normal operation, a
	   SSL_read(3) or SSL_write(3) would return with -1 and indicate the
	   need to retry with SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ.  In a non-blocking
	   environment applications must be prepared to handle incomplete
	   read/write operations.  In a blocking environment, applications are
	   not always prepared to deal with read/write operations returning
	   without success report. The flag SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY will cause
	   read/write operations to only return after the handshake and
	   successful completion.

       SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS
	   When we no longer need a read buffer or a write buffer for a given
	   SSL, then release the memory we were using to hold it.  Released
	   memory is either appended to a list of unused RAM chunks on the
	   SSL_CTX, or simply freed if the list of unused chunks would become
	   longer than SSL_CTX->freelist_max_len, which defaults to 32.	 Using
	   this flag can save around 34k per idle SSL connection.  This flag
	   has no effect on SSL v2 connections, or on DTLS connections.

RETURN VALUES
       SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_set_mode() return the new mode bitmask after
       adding mode.

       SSL_CTX_get_mode() and SSL_get_mode() return the current bitmask.

       SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY as been added in OpenSSL 0.9.6.
