When this function is called +for re\-handshake under TLS 1.2 or earlier, the non\-fatal error code +\fBGNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA\fP may also be returned. + +The former two interrupt the handshake procedure due to the transport +layer being interrupted, and the latter because of a "warning" alert that +was sent by the peer (it is always a good idea to check any +received alerts). On these non\-fatal errors call this function again, +until it returns 0; cf. \fBgnutls_record_get_direction()\fP and +\fBgnutls_error_is_fatal()\fP. In DTLS sessions the non\-fatal error +\fBGNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET\fP is also possible, and indicates that +the MTU should be adjusted. + +When this function is called by a server after a rehandshake request +under TLS 1.2 or earlier the \fBGNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA\fP error code indicates +that some data were pending prior to peer initiating the handshake. +Under TLS 1.3 this function when called after a successful handshake, is a no\-op +and always succeeds in server side; in client side this function is +equivalent to \fBgnutls_session_key_update()\fP with \fBGNUTLS_KU_PEER\fP flag. + +This function handles both full and abbreviated TLS handshakes (resumption). +For abbreviated handshakes, in client side, the \fBgnutls_session_set_data()\fP +should be called prior to this function to set parameters from a previous session. +In server side, resumption is handled by either setting a DB back\-end, or setting +up keys for session tickets. +.SH "RETURNS" +\fBGNUTLS_E_SUCCESS\fP on a successful handshake, otherwise a negative error code. +.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 |
