Session tickets, defined in +RFC5077 provide an enhanced session resumption capability where the server +implementation is not required to maintain per session state. It only applies +to TLS and there is no SSLv3 implementation. + +The callback is available when the OpenSSL library was built without +I<OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT> being defined. + +The callback function I<cb> will be called for every client instigated TLS +session when session ticket extension is presented in the TLS hello +message. It is the responsibility of this function to create or retrieve the +cryptographic parameters and to maintain their state. + +The OpenSSL library uses your callback function to help implement a common TLS +ticket construction state according to RFC5077 Section 4 such that per session +state is unnecessary and a small set of cryptographic variables needs to be +maintained by the callback function implementation. + +In order to reuse a session, a TLS client must send the a session ticket +extension to the server. The client can only send exactly one session ticket. +The server, through the callback function, either agrees to reuse the session +ticket information or it starts a full TLS handshake to create a new session +ticket. + +Before the callback function is started I<ctx> and I<hctx> have been +initialised with EVP_CIPHER_CTX_init and HMAC_CTX_init respectively. + +For new sessions tickets, when the client doesn't present a session ticket, or +an attempted retreival of the ticket failed, or a renew option was indicated, +the callback function will be called with I<enc> equal to 1. The OpenSSL +library expects that the function will set an arbitary I<name>, initialize +I<iv>, and set the cipher context I<ctx> and the hash context I<hctx>. + +The I<name> is 16 characters long and is used as a key identifier. + +The I<iv> length is the length of the IV of the corresponding cipher. The +maximum IV length is L<EVP_MAX_IV_LENGTH> bytes defined in B<evp.h>. + +The initialization vector I<iv> should be a random value. The cipher context +I<ctx> should use the initialisation vector I<iv>. The cipher context can be +set using L<EVP_EncryptInit_ex>. The hmac context can be set using L<HMAC_Init_ex>. + +When the client presents a session ticket, the callback function with be called +with I<enc> set to 0 indicating that the I<cb> function should retreive a set +of parameters. In this case I<name> and I<iv> have already been parsed out of +the session ticket. The OpenSSL library expects that the I<name> will be used +to retrieve a cryptographic parameters and that the cryptographic context +I<ctx> will be set with the retreived parameters and the initialization vector +I<iv>. using a function like L<EVP_DecryptInit_ex>. The I<hctx> needs to be set +using L<HMAC_Init_ex>. + +If the I<name> is still valid but a renewal of the ticket is required the +callback function should return 2. The library will call the callback again +with an arguement of enc equal to 1 to set the new ticket. + +The return value of the I<cb> function is used by OpenSSL to determine what +further processing will occur. The following return values have meaning: + +=over 4 + +=item Z<>2 + +This indicates that the I<ctx> and I<hctx> have been set and the session can +continue on those parameters. Additionally it indicates that the session +ticket is in a renewal period and should be replaced.

It makes up for this by storing client certificate +an all other negotiated state information encrypted within the ticket. In a +resumed session the applications will have all this state information available +exactly as if a full negiotation had occured. + +If an attacker can obtain the key used to encrypt a session ticket, they can +obtain the master secret for any ticket using that key and decrypt any traffic +using that session: even if the ciphersuite supports forward secrecy.
