| =head1 NAME
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_add_compression_method, SSL_COMP_get_compression_methods,
 | |
| SSL_COMP_get0_name, SSL_COMP_get_id, SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods
 | |
| - handle SSL/TLS integrated compression methods
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS
 | |
| 
 | |
|  #include <openssl/ssl.h>
 | |
| 
 | |
|  int SSL_COMP_add_compression_method(int id, COMP_METHOD *cm);
 | |
|  STACK_OF(SSL_COMP) *SSL_COMP_get_compression_methods(void);
 | |
|  const char *SSL_COMP_get0_name(const SSL_COMP *comp);
 | |
|  int SSL_COMP_get_id(const SSL_COMP *comp);
 | |
| 
 | |
| Deprecated since OpenSSL 1.1.0, can be hidden entirely by defining
 | |
| B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value, see
 | |
| L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
 | |
| 
 | |
|  void SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(void);
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_add_compression_method() adds the compression method B<cm> with
 | |
| the identifier B<id> to the list of available compression methods. This
 | |
| list is globally maintained for all SSL operations within this application.
 | |
| It cannot be set for specific SSL_CTX or SSL objects.
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_get_compression_methods() returns a stack of all of the available
 | |
| compression methods or NULL on error.
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_get0_name() returns the name of the compression method B<comp>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_get_id() returns the id of the compression method B<comp>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods() releases any resources acquired to
 | |
| maintain the internal table of compression methods.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 NOTES
 | |
| 
 | |
| The TLS standard (or SSLv3) allows the integration of compression methods
 | |
| into the communication. The TLS RFC does however not specify compression
 | |
| methods or their corresponding identifiers, so there is currently no compatible
 | |
| way to integrate compression with unknown peers. It is therefore currently not
 | |
| recommended to integrate compression into applications. Applications for
 | |
| non-public use may agree on certain compression methods. Using different
 | |
| compression methods with the same identifier will lead to connection failure.
 | |
| 
 | |
| An OpenSSL client speaking a protocol that allows compression (SSLv3, TLSv1)
 | |
| will unconditionally send the list of all compression methods enabled with
 | |
| SSL_COMP_add_compression_method() to the server during the handshake.
 | |
| Unlike the mechanisms to set a cipher list, there is no method available to
 | |
| restrict the list of compression method on a per connection basis.
 | |
| 
 | |
| An OpenSSL server will match the identifiers listed by a client against
 | |
| its own compression methods and will unconditionally activate compression
 | |
| when a matching identifier is found. There is no way to restrict the list
 | |
| of compression methods supported on a per connection basis.
 | |
| 
 | |
| If enabled during compilation, the OpenSSL library will have the
 | |
| COMP_zlib() compression method available.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_add_compression_method() may return the following values:
 | |
| 
 | |
| =over 4
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item Z<>0
 | |
| 
 | |
| The operation succeeded.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item Z<>1
 | |
| 
 | |
| The operation failed. Check the error queue to find out the reason.
 | |

| =back
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_get_compression_methods() returns the stack of compressions methods or
 | |
| NULL on error.
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_get0_name() returns the name of the compression method or NULL on error.
 | |
| 
 | |
| SSL_COMP_get_id() returns the name of the compression method or -1 on error.

 | |
| =head1 HISTORY
 | |
| 
 | |
| The SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods() function was deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
 | |
| The SSL_COMP_get0_name() and SSL_comp_get_id() functions were added in OpenSSL 1.1.0d.
