.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback()\fR or \fISSL_set_msg_callback()\fR can be used to
define a message callback function \fIcb\fR for observing all \s-1SSL/TLS/QUIC\s0
protocol messages (such as handshake messages) that are received or
sent, as well as other events that occur during processing.
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR and \fISSL_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR
can be used to set argument \fIarg\fR to the callback function, which is
available for arbitrary application use.
.PP
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback()\fR and \fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR specify
default settings that will be copied to new \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR objects by
\&\fISSL_new\fR\|(3). \fISSL_set_msg_callback()\fR and
\&\fISSL_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR modify the actual settings of an \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR
object. Using a \fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR pointer for \fIcb\fR disables the message callback.
.PP
When \fIcb\fR is called by the \s-1SSL/TLS/QUIC\s0 library the function arguments have the
following meaning:
.IP "\fIwrite_p\fR" 4
.IX Item "write_p"
This flag is \fB0\fR when a protocol message has been received and \fB1\fR
when a protocol message has been sent.
.IP "\fIversion\fR" 4
.IX Item "version"
The protocol version according to which the protocol message is
interpreted by the library such as \fB\s-1TLS1_3_VERSION\s0\fR, \fB\s-1TLS1_2_VERSION\s0\fR,
\&\fB\s-1OSSL_QUIC1_VERSION\s0\fR etc. For the \s-1SSL3_RT_HEADER\s0 pseudo
content type (see \s-1NOTES\s0 below) this value will be the decoded
version/legacy_version field of the record header.
.IP "\fIcontent_type\fR" 4
.IX Item "content_type"
This is one of the content type values defined in the protocol specification
(\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_CHANGE_CIPHER_SPEC\s0\fR, \fB\s-1SSL3_RT_ALERT\s0\fR, \fB\s-1SSL3_RT_HANDSHAKE\s0\fR; but never
\&\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA\s0\fR because the callback will only be called for protocol
messages). Alternatively it may be a \*(L"pseudo\*(R" content type. These pseudo
content types are used to signal some other event in the processing of data (see
\&\s-1NOTES\s0 below).
.IP "\fIbuf\fR, \fIlen\fR" 4
.IX Item "buf, len"
\&\fIbuf\fR points to a buffer containing the protocol message or other data (in the
case of pseudo content types), which consists of \fIlen\fR bytes. The buffer is no
longer valid after the callback function has returned.
.IP "\fIssl\fR" 4
.IX Item "ssl"
The \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR object that received or sent the message.
.IP "\fIarg\fR" 4
.IX Item "arg"
The user-defined argument optionally defined by
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR or \fISSL_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR.
.PP
The \fISSL_trace()\fR function can be used as a pre-written callback in a call to
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback()\fR or \fISSL_set_msg_callback()\fR. It requires a \s-1BIO\s0 to be
set as the callback argument via \fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR or
\&\fISSL_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR. Setting this callback will cause human readable
diagostic tracing information about an \s-1SSL/TLS/QUIC\s0 connection to be written to
the \s-1BIO.\s0
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
Protocol messages are passed to the callback function after decryption
and fragment collection where applicable. (Thus record boundaries are
not visible.)
.PP
If processing a received protocol message results in an error,
the callback function may not be called.  For example, the callback
function will never see messages that are considered too large to be
processed.
.PP
Due to automatic protocol version negotiation, \fIversion\fR is not
necessarily the protocol version used by the sender of the message: If
a \s-1TLS 1.0\s0 ClientHello message is received by an \s-1SSL 3\s0.0\-only server,
\&\fIversion\fR will be \fB\s-1SSL3_VERSION\s0\fR.
.PP
Pseudo content type values may be sent at various points during the processing
of data. The following pseudo content types are currently defined:
.IP "\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_HEADER\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "SSL3_RT_HEADER"
Used when a \s-1TLS\s0 record is sent or received. The \fBbuf\fR contains the record header
bytes only.
.IP "\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_INNER_CONTENT_TYPE\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "SSL3_RT_INNER_CONTENT_TYPE"
Used when an encrypted TLSv1.3 record is sent or received. In encrypted TLSv1.3
records the content type in the record header is always
\&\s-1SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA.\s0 The real content type for the record is contained in
an \*(L"inner\*(R" content type. \fBbuf\fR contains the encoded \*(L"inner\*(R" content type byte.
.IP "\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_QUIC_DATAGRAM\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "SSL3_RT_QUIC_DATAGRAM"
Used when a \s-1QUIC\s0 datagram is sent or received.
.IP "\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_QUIC_PACKET\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "SSL3_RT_QUIC_PACKET"
Used when a \s-1QUIC\s0 packet is sent or received.
.IP "\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_QUIC_FRAME_FULL\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "SSL3_RT_QUIC_FRAME_FULL"
Used when a \s-1QUIC\s0 frame is sent or received. This is only used for non-crypto
and stream data related frames. The full \s-1QUIC\s0 frame data is supplied.
.IP "\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_QUIC_FRAME_HEADER\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "SSL3_RT_QUIC_FRAME_HEADER"
Used when a \s-1QUIC\s0 stream data or crypto frame is sent or received. Only the \s-1QUIC\s0
frame header data is supplied.
.IP "\fB\s-1SSL3_RT_QUIC_FRAME_PADDING\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "SSL3_RT_QUIC_FRAME_PADDING"
Used when a sequence of one or more \s-1QUIC\s0 padding frames is sent or received.
A padding frame consists of a single byte and it is common to have multiple
such frames in a sequence. Rather than supplying each frame individually the
callback will supply all the padding frames in one go via this pseudo content
type.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback()\fR, \fISSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR, \fISSL_set_msg_callback()\fR
and \fISSL_set_msg_callback_arg()\fR do not return values.
