SSL_CTX_sessions(3)                 OpenSSL                SSL_CTX_sessions(3)




NAME

       SSL_CTX_sessions - access internal session cache


LIBRARY

       libcrypto, -lcrypto


SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        struct lhash_st *SSL_CTX_sessions(SSL_CTX *ctx);


DESCRIPTION

       SSL_CTX_sessions() returns a pointer to the lhash databases containing
       the internal session cache for ctx.


NOTES

       The sessions in the internal session cache are kept in an lhash(3) type
       database. It is possible to directly access this database e.g. for
       searching. In parallel, the sessions form a linked list which is main-
       tained separately from the lhash(3) operations, so that the database
       must not be modified directly but by using the SSL_CTX_add_session(3)
       family of functions.
