Its +behavior with no flags after threads are created is undefined. + +When the flag \fBGNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_MODE_THREAD\fP is specified +then this call will change the FIPS140\-2 mode for this particular +thread and not for the whole process. That way an application +can utilize this function to set and reset mode for specific +operations. + +This function never fails but will be a no\-op if used when +the library is not in FIPS140\-2 mode. When asked to switch to unknown +values for \fImode\fP or to \fBGNUTLS_FIPS140_SELFTESTS\fP mode, the library +switches to \fBGNUTLS_FIPS140_STRICT\fP mode. +.SH "SINCE" +3.6.2 +.SH "REPORTING BUGS" +Report bugs to <bugs@gnutls.org>. +.br +Home page: https://www.gnutls.org + +.SH COPYRIGHT +Copyright \(co 2001- Free Software Foundation, Inc., and others. +.br +Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, +are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright +notice and this notice are preserved. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +The full documentation for +.B gnutls +is maintained as a Texinfo manual. +If the /usr/share/doc/gnutls/ +directory does not contain the HTML form visit +.B +.IP https://www.gnutls.org/manual/ +.PP |
