| =head1 NAME
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_dup, SSL_new, SSL_up_ref - create an SSL structure for a connection
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS
 | |
| 
 | |
|  #include <openssl/ssl.h>
 | |
| 
 | |
|  SSL *SSL_dup(SSL *s);
 | |
|  SSL *SSL_new(SSL_CTX *ctx);
 | |
|  int SSL_up_ref(SSL *s);
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_new() creates a new B<SSL> structure which is needed to hold the
 | |
| data for a TLS/SSL connection. The new structure inherits the settings
 | |
| of the underlying context B<ctx>: connection method,
 | |
| options, verification settings, timeout settings. An B<SSL> structure is
 | |
| reference counted. Creating an B<SSL> structure for the first time increments
 | |
| the reference count. Freeing it (using SSL_free) decrements it. When the
 | |
| reference count drops to zero, any memory or resources allocated to the B<SSL>
 | |
| structure are freed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_up_ref() increments the reference count for an
 | |
| existing B<SSL> structure.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The function SSL_dup() creates and returns a new B<SSL> structure from the same
 | |
| B<SSL_CTX> that was used to create I<s>. It additionally duplicates a subset of
 | |
| the settings in I<s> into the new B<SSL> object.
 | |
| 
 | |
| For SSL_dup() to work, the connection MUST be in its initial state and
 | |
| MUST NOT have yet started the SSL handshake.  For connections that are not in
 | |
| their initial state SSL_dup() just increments an internal
 | |
| reference count and returns the I<same> handle.  It may be possible to
 | |
| use L<SSL_clear(3)> to recycle an SSL handle that is not in its initial
 | |
| state for reuse, but this is best avoided.  Instead, save and restore
 | |
| the session, if desired, and construct a fresh handle for each connection.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The subset of settings in I<s> that are duplicated are:
 | |
|

| 
 | |
| SSL_dup() is not supported on QUIC SSL objects and returns NULL if called on
 | |
| such an object.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES
 | |
| 
 | |
| The following return values can occur:
 | |
| 
 | |
| =over 4
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item NULL
 | |
| 
 | |
| The creation of a new SSL structure failed. Check the error stack to
 | |
| find out the reason.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item Pointer to an SSL structure
 | |
| 
 | |
| The return value points to an allocated SSL structure.
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_up_ref() returns 1 for success and 0 for failure.
