gnutls_handshake(3) gnutls gnutls_handshake(3) NAME gnutls_handshake - API function SYNOPSIS #include <gnutls/gnutls.h> int gnutls_handshake(gnutls_session_t session); ARGUMENTS gnutls_session_t session is a gnutls_session_t type. DESCRIPTION This function performs the handshake of the TLS/SSL protocol, and initial- izes the TLS session parameters. The non-fatal errors expected by this function are: GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED, GNUTLS_E_AGAIN, GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED. When this function is called for re-handshake under TLS 1.2 or earlier, the non-fatal error code GNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA may also be returned. The former two interrupt the handshake procedure due to the transport layer being interrupted, and the latter because of a "warning" alert that was sent by the peer (it is always a good idea to check any received alerts). On these non-fatal errors call this function again, until it returns 0; cf. gnutls_record_get_direction() and gnutls_error_is_fatal(). In DTLS sessions the non-fatal error GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET is also possible, and indicates that the MTU should be adjusted. When this function is called by a server after a rehandshake request under TLS 1.2 or earlier the GNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA error code indicates that some data were pending prior to peer initiating the handshake. Under TLS 1.3 this function when called after a successful handshake, is a no-op and always succeeds in server side; in client side this function is equiva- lent to gnutls_session_key_update() with GNUTLS_KU_PEER flag. This function handles both full and abbreviated TLS handshakes (resump- tion). For abbreviated handshakes, in client side, the gnutls_ses- sion_set_data() should be called prior to this function to set parameters from a previous session. In server side, resumption is handled by either setting a DB back-end, or setting up keys for session tickets. RETURNS GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on a successful handshake, otherwise a negative error code.
