=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
SSL_COMP_add_compression_method() adds the compression method B<cm> with
|
||
|
the identifier B<id> to the list of available compression methods. This
|
||
|
list is globally maintained for all SSL operations within this application.
|
||
|
It cannot be set for specific SSL_CTX or SSL objects.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SSL_COMP_get_compression_methods() returns a stack of all of the available
|
||
|
compression methods or NULL on error.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SSL_COMP_get0_name() returns the name of the compression method B<comp>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SSL_COMP_get_id() returns the id of the compression method B<comp>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods() releases any resources acquired to
|
||
|
maintain the internal table of compression methods.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 NOTES
|
||
|
|
||
|
The TLS standard (or SSLv3) allows the integration of compression methods
|
||
|
into the communication. The TLS RFC does however not specify compression
|
||
|
methods or their corresponding identifiers, so there is currently no compatible
|
||
|
way to integrate compression with unknown peers. It is therefore currently not
|
||
|
recommended to integrate compression into applications. Applications for
|
||
|
non-public use may agree on certain compression methods. Using different
|
||
|
compression methods with the same identifier will lead to connection failure.
|
||
|
|
||
|
An OpenSSL client speaking a protocol that allows compression (SSLv3, TLSv1)
|
||
|
will unconditionally send the list of all compression methods enabled with
|
||
|
SSL_COMP_add_compression_method() to the server during the handshake.
|
||
|
Unlike the mechanisms to set a cipher list, there is no method available to
|
||
|
restrict the list of compression method on a per connection basis.
|
||
|
|
||
|
An OpenSSL server will match the identifiers listed by a client against
|
||
|
its own compression methods and will unconditionally activate compression
|
||
|
when a matching identifier is found. There is no way to restrict the list
|
||
|
of compression methods supported on a per connection basis.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If enabled during compilation, the OpenSSL library will have the
|
||
|
COMP_zlib() compression method available.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
|
||
|
SSL_COMP_add_compression_method() may return the following values:

||
|
=item Z<>1

||
|
SSL_COMP_get0_name() returns the name of the compression method or NULL on error.

=head1 HISTORY
|
||
|
|
||
|
The SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods() function was deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
|
||
|
The SSL_COMP_get0_name() and SSL_comp_get_id() functions were added in OpenSSL 1.1.0d.
