 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 #include <openssl/trace.h>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 typedef size_t (*OSSL_trace_cb)(const char *buf, size_t cnt,
 | 
						|
                                 int category, int cmd, void *data);

						|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If available (see L</Configure Tracing> below), the application can request
 | 
						|
internal trace output.
 | 
						|
This output comes in form of free text for humans to read.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The trace output is divided into categories which can be
 | 
						|
enabled individually.
 | 
						|
Every category can be enabled individually by attaching a so-called
 | 
						|
I<trace channel> to it, which in the simplest case is just a BIO object
 | 
						|
to which the application can write the tracing output for this category.
 | 
						|
Alternatively, the application can provide a tracer callback in order to
 | 
						|
get more finegrained trace information. This callback will be wrapped
 | 
						|
internally by a dedicated BIO object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For the tracing code, both trace channel types are indistinguishable.
 | 
						|
These are called a I<simple trace channel> and a I<callback trace channel>,
 | 
						|
respectively.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
L<OSSL_TRACE_ENABLED(3)> can be used to check whether tracing is currently
 | 
						|
enabled for the given category.
 | 
						|
Functions like L<OSSL_TRACE1(3)> and macros like L<OSSL_TRACE_BEGIN(3)>
 | 
						|
can be used for producing free-text trace output.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Functions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_trace_set_channel() is used to enable the given trace C<category>
 | 
						|
by attaching the B<BIO> I<bio> object as (simple) trace channel.
 | 
						|
On success the ownership of the BIO is transferred to the channel,
 | 
						|
so the caller must not free it directly.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_trace_set_prefix() and OSSL_trace_set_suffix() can be used to add
 | 
						|
an extra line for each channel, to be output before and after group of
 | 
						|
tracing output.
 | 
						|
What constitutes an output group is decided by the code that produces
 | 
						|
the output.
 | 
						|
The lines given here are considered immutable; for more dynamic
 | 
						|
tracing prefixes, consider setting a callback with
 | 
						|
OSSL_trace_set_callback() instead.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_trace_set_callback() is used to enable the given trace
 | 
						|
I<category> by giving it the tracer callback I<cb> with the associated
 | 
						|
data I<data>, which will simply be passed through to I<cb> whenever
 | 
						|
it's called. The callback function is internally wrapped by a
 | 
						|
dedicated BIO object, the so-called I<callback trace channel>.
 | 
						|
This should be used when it's desirable to do form the trace output to
 | 
						|
something suitable for application needs where a prefix and suffix
 | 
						|
line aren't enough.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_trace_set_channel() and OSSL_trace_set_callback() are mutually
 | 
						|
exclusive, calling one of them will clear whatever was set by the
 | 
						|
previous call.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Calling OSSL_trace_set_channel() with NULL for I<channel> or
 | 
						|
OSSL_trace_set_callback() with NULL for I<cb> disables tracing for
 | 
						|
the given I<category>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Trace callback
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The tracer callback must return a B<size_t>, which must be zero on
 | 
						|
error and otherwise return the number of bytes that were output.
 | 
						|
It receives a text buffer I<buf> with I<cnt> bytes of text, as well as
 | 
						|
the I<category>, a control number I<cmd>, and the I<data> that was
 | 
						|
passed to OSSL_trace_set_callback().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The possible control numbers are:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=over 4
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_BEGIN>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The callback is called from OSSL_trace_begin(), which gives the
 | 
						|
callback the possibility to output a dynamic starting line, or set a
 | 
						|
prefix that should be output at the beginning of each line, or
 | 
						|
something other.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_WRITE>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This callback is called whenever data is written to the BIO by some
 | 
						|
regular BIO output routine.
 | 
						|
An arbitrary number of B<OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_WRITE> callbacks can occur
 | 
						|
inside a group marked by a pair of B<OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_BEGIN> and
 | 
						|
B<OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_END> calls, but never outside such a group.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_END>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The callback is called from OSSL_trace_end(), which gives the callback
 | 
						|
the possibility to output a dynamic ending line, or reset the line
 | 
						|
prefix that was set with B<OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_BEGIN>, or something other.
 | 
						|

=head2 Trace categories
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The trace categories are simple numbers available through macros.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=over 4
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_TRACE>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces the OpenSSL trace API itself.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
More precisely, this will generate trace output any time a new
 | 
						|
trace hook is set.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_INIT>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces OpenSSL library initialization and cleanup.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This needs special care, as OpenSSL will do automatic cleanup after
 | 
						|
exit from C<main()>, and any tracing output done during this cleanup
 | 
						|
will be lost if the tracing channel or callback were cleaned away
 | 
						|
prematurely.
 | 
						|
A suggestion is to make such cleanup part of a function that's
 | 
						|
registered very early with L<atexit(3)>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_TLS>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces the TLS/SSL protocol.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_TLS_CIPHER>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces the ciphers used by the TLS/SSL protocol.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_CONF>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces details about the provider and engine configuration.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_ENGINE_TABLE>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces the ENGINE algorithm table selection.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
More precisely, functions like ENGINE_get_pkey_asn1_meth_engine(),
 | 
						|
ENGINE_get_pkey_meth_engine(), ENGINE_get_cipher_engine(),
 | 
						|
ENGINE_get_digest_engine(), will generate trace summaries of the
 | 
						|
handling of internal tables.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_ENGINE_REF_COUNT>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces the ENGINE reference counting.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
More precisely, both reference counts in the ENGINE structure will be
 | 
						|
monitored with a line of trace output generated for each change.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_PKCS5V2>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces PKCS#5 v2 key generation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_PKCS12_KEYGEN>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces PKCS#12 key generation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_PKCS12_DECRYPT>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces PKCS#12 decryption.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_X509V3_POLICY>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces X509v3 policy processing.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
More precisely, this generates the complete policy tree at various
 | 
						|
point during evaluation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_BN_CTX>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces BIGNUM context operations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_CMP>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces CMP client and server activity.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_STORE>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces STORE operations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_DECODER>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces decoder operations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_ENCODER>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces encoder operations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=item B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_REF_COUNT>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Traces decrementing certain ASN.1 structure references.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=back
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There is also B<OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_ALL>, which works as a fallback
 | 
						|
and can be used to get I<all> trace output.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note, however, that in this case all trace output will effectively be
 | 
						|
associated with the 'ALL' category, which is undesirable if the
 | 
						|
application intends to include the category name in the trace output.
 | 
						|
In this case it is better to register separate channels for each
 | 
						|
trace category instead.

=head1 RETURN VALUES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OSSL_trace_set_channel(), OSSL_trace_set_prefix(),
 | 
						|
OSSL_trace_set_suffix(), and OSSL_trace_set_callback() return 1 on
 | 
						|
success, or 0 on failure.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 EXAMPLES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
In all examples below, the trace producing code is assumed to be
 | 
						|
the following:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int foo = 42;
 | 
						|
 const char bar[] = { 0,  1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,
 | 
						|
                      8,  9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 };
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 OSSL_TRACE_BEGIN(TLS) {
 | 
						|
     BIO_puts(trc_out, "foo: ");
 | 
						|
     BIO_printf(trc_out, "%d\n", foo);
 | 
						|
     BIO_dump(trc_out, bar, sizeof(bar));
 | 
						|
 } OSSL_TRACE_END(TLS);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Simple example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
An example with just a channel and constant prefix / suffix.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int main(int argc, char *argv[])
 | 
						|
 {
 | 
						|
     BIO *err = BIO_new_fp(stderr, BIO_NOCLOSE | BIO_FP_TEXT);
 | 
						|
     OSSL_trace_set_channel(OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_SSL, err);
 | 
						|
     OSSL_trace_set_prefix(OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_SSL, "BEGIN TRACE[TLS]");
 | 
						|
     OSSL_trace_set_suffix(OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_SSL, "END TRACE[TLS]");
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
     /* ... work ... */
 | 
						|
 }
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When the trace producing code above is performed, this will be output
 | 
						|
on standard error:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 BEGIN TRACE[TLS]
 | 
						|
 foo: 42
 | 
						|
 0000 - 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07-08 09 0a 0b 0c 0d 0e 0f   ................
 | 
						|
 END TRACE[TLS]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Advanced example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This example uses the callback, and depends on pthreads functionality.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 static size_t cb(const char *buf, size_t cnt,
 | 
						|
                 int category, int cmd, void *vdata)
 | 
						|
 {
 | 
						|
     BIO *bio = vdata;
 | 
						|
     const char *label = NULL;
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
     switch (cmd) {
 | 
						|
     case OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_BEGIN:
 | 
						|
         label = "BEGIN";
 | 
						|
         break;
 | 
						|
     case OSSL_TRACE_CTRL_END:
 | 
						|
         label = "END";
 | 
						|
         break;
 | 
						|
     }
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
     if (label != NULL) {
 | 
						|
         union {
 | 
						|
             pthread_t tid;
 | 
						|
             unsigned long ltid;
 | 
						|
         } tid;
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         tid.tid = pthread_self();
 | 
						|
         BIO_printf(bio, "%s TRACE[%s]:%lx\n",
 | 
						|
                    label, OSSL_trace_get_category_name(category), tid.ltid);
 | 
						|
     }
 | 
						|
     return (size_t)BIO_puts(bio, buf);
 | 
						|
 }
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 int main(int argc, char *argv[])
 | 
						|
 {
 | 
						|
     BIO *err = BIO_new_fp(stderr, BIO_NOCLOSE | BIO_FP_TEXT);
 | 
						|
     OSSL_trace_set_callback(OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_SSL, cb, err);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
     /* ... work ... */
 | 
						|
 }
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The output is almost the same as for the simple example above.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 BEGIN TRACE[TLS]:7f9eb0193b80
 | 
						|
 foo: 42
 | 
						|
 0000 - 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07-08 09 0a 0b 0c 0d 0e 0f   ................
 |

 END TRACE[TLS]:7f9eb0193b80

=head1 NOTES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head2 Configure Tracing
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
By default, the OpenSSL library is built with tracing disabled. To
 | 
						|
use the tracing functionality documented here, it is therefore
 | 
						|
necessary to configure and build OpenSSL with the 'enable-trace' option.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When the library is built with tracing disabled, the macro
 | 
						|
B<OPENSSL_NO_TRACE> is defined in F<< <openssl/opensslconf.h> >> and all
 | 
						|
functions described here are inoperational, i.e. will do nothing.
