The time is given in seconds since the Epoch and therefore +compatible to the time delivered by the time() call. + +SSL_SESSION_set_time() replaces the creation time of the session B<s> with +the chosen value B<tm>. + +SSL_SESSION_get_timeout() returns the timeout value set for session B<s> +in seconds. + +SSL_SESSION_set_timeout() sets the timeout value for session B<s> in seconds +to B<tm>. + +The SSL_get_time(), SSL_set_time(), SSL_get_timeout(), and SSL_set_timeout() +functions are synonyms for the SSL_SESSION_*() counterparts. + +=head1 NOTES + +Sessions are expired by examining the creation time and the timeout value. +Both are set at creation time of the session to the actual time and the +default timeout value at creation, respectively, as set by +L<SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)|SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)>. +Using these functions it is possible to extend or shorten the lifetime +of the session. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +SSL_SESSION_get_time() and SSL_SESSION_get_timeout() return the currently +valid values. + +SSL_SESSION_set_time() and SSL_SESSION_set_timeout() return 1 on success. + +If any of the function is passed the NULL pointer for the session B<s>, +0 is returned. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<ssl(3)|ssl(3)>, +L<SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)|SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)>, +L<SSL_get_default_timeout(3)|SSL_get_default_timeout(3)> + +=cut |
