The session id is an arbitrary sequence of bytes. +The length of the session id is between 1 and 32 bytes. The session id is not +security critical but must be unique for the server. Additionally, the session id is +transmitted in the clear when reusing the session so it must not contain +sensitive information. +.PP +Without a callback being set, an OpenSSL server will generate a unique +session id from pseudo random numbers of the maximum possible length. +Using the callback function, the session id can be changed to contain +additional information like e.g. a host id in order to improve load balancing +or external caching techniques. +.PP +The callback function receives a pointer to the memory location to put +\&\fBid\fR into and a pointer to the maximum allowed length \fBid_len\fR. The +buffer at location \fBid\fR is only guaranteed to have the size \fBid_len\fR. +The callback is only allowed to generate a shorter id and reduce \fBid_len\fR; +the callback \fBmust never\fR increase \fBid_len\fR or write to the location +\&\fBid\fR exceeding the given limit. +.PP +The location \fBid\fR is filled with 0x00 before the callback is called, so the +callback may only fill part of the possible length and leave \fBid_len\fR +untouched while maintaining reproducibility. +.PP +Since the sessions must be distinguished, session ids must be unique. +Without the callback a random number is used, so that the probability +of generating the same session id is extremely small (2^256 for SSLv3/TLSv1). +In order to assure the uniqueness of the generated session id, the callback must call +\&\fBSSL_has_matching_session_id()\fR and generate another id if a conflict occurs. +If an id conflict is not resolved, the handshake will fail. +If the application codes e.g. a unique host id, a unique process number, and +a unique sequence number into the session id, uniqueness could easily be +achieved without randomness added (it should however be taken care that +no confidential information is leaked this way). If the application can not +guarantee uniqueness, it is recommended to use the maximum \fBid_len\fR and +fill in the bytes not used to code special information with random data +to avoid collisions. +.PP +\&\fBSSL_has_matching_session_id()\fR will only query the internal session cache, +not the external one. Since the session id is generated before the +handshake is completed, it is not immediately added to the cache. If +another thread is using the same internal session cache, a race condition +can occur in that another thread generates the same session id. +Collisions can also occur when using an external session cache, since +the external cache is not tested with \fBSSL_has_matching_session_id()\fR +and the same race condition applies. +.PP +The callback must return 0 if it cannot generate a session id for whatever +reason and return 1 on success. +.SH "RETURN VALUES" +.IX Header "RETURN VALUES" +\&\fBSSL_CTX_set_generate_session_id()\fR and \fBSSL_set_generate_session_id()\fR +return 1 on success and 0 for failure. +.PP +\&\fBSSL_has_matching_session_id()\fR returns 1 if another session with the +same id is already in the cache, or 0 otherwise. +.SH EXAMPLES +.IX Header "EXAMPLES" +The callback function listed will generate a session id with the +server id given, and will fill the rest with pseudo random bytes: +.PP +.Vb 1 +\& const char session_id_prefix = "www\-18"; +\& +\& #define MAX_SESSION_ID_ATTEMPTS 10 +\& static int generate_session_id(SSL *ssl, unsigned char *id, +\& unsigned int *id_len) +\& { +\& unsigned int count = 0; +\& +\& do { +\& RAND_pseudo_bytes(id, *id_len); +\& /* +\& * Prefix the session_id with the required prefix.
