DESCRIPTION

       SSL_CTX_set_client_hello_cb() sets the callback function, which is automatically called during the early
       stages of ClientHello processing on the server.  The argument supplied when setting the callback is
       passed back to the callback at run time.  A callback that returns failure (0) will cause the connection
       to terminate, and callbacks returning failure should indicate what alert value is to be sent in the al
       parameter.  A callback may also return a negative value to suspend the handshake, and the handshake
       function will return immediately.  SSL_get_error(3) will return SSL_ERROR_WANT_CLIENT_HELLO_CB to
       indicate that the handshake was suspended.  It is the job of the ClientHello callback to store
       information about the state of the last call if needed to continue.  On the next call into the handshake
       function, the ClientHello callback will be called again, and, if it returns success, normal handshake
       processing will continue from that point.

       SSL_client_hello_isv2() indicates whether the ClientHello was carried in a SSLv2 record and is in the
       SSLv2 format.  The SSLv2 format has substantial differences from the normal SSLv3 format, including using
       three bytes per cipher suite, and not allowing extensions.  Additionally, the SSLv2 format 'challenge'
       field is exposed via SSL_client_hello_get0_random(), padded to SSL3_RANDOM_SIZE bytes with zeros if
       needed.  For SSLv2 format ClientHellos, SSL_client_hello_get0_compression_methods() returns a dummy list
       that only includes the null compression method, since the SSLv2 format does not include a mechanism by
       which to negotiate compression.

       SSL_client_hello_get0_random(), SSL_client_hello_get0_session_id(), SSL_client_hello_get0_ciphers(), and
       SSL_client_hello_get0_compression_methods() provide access to the corresponding ClientHello fields,
       returning the field length and optionally setting an out pointer to the octets of that field.

       Similarly, SSL_client_hello_get0_ext() provides access to individual extensions from the ClientHello on a
       per-extension basis.  For the provided wire protocol extension type value, the extension value and length
       are returned in the output parameters (if present).

       SSL_client_hello_get1_extensions_present() can be used prior to SSL_client_hello_get0_ext(), to determine
       which extensions are present in the ClientHello before querying for them.  The out and outlen parameters
       are both required, and on success the caller must release the storage allocated for *out using
       OPENSSL_free().  The contents of *out is an array of integers holding the numerical value of the TLS
       extension types in the order they appear in the ClientHello.  *outlen contains the number of elements in
       the array.  In situations when the ClientHello has no extensions, the function will return success with
       *out set to NULL and *outlen set to 0.

NOTES

       The ClientHello callback provides a vast window of possibilities for application code to affect the TLS
       handshake.  A primary use of the callback is to allow the server to examine the server name indication
       extension provided by the client in order to select an appropriate certificate to present, and make other
       configuration adjustments relevant to that server name and its configuration.  Such configuration changes
       can include swapping out the associated SSL_CTX pointer, modifying the server's list of permitted TLS
       versions, changing the server's cipher list in response to the client's cipher list, etc.

       It is also recommended that applications utilize a ClientHello callback and not use a servername
       callback, in order to avoid unexpected behavior that occurs due to the relative order of processing
       between things like session resumption and the historical servername callback.

       The SSL_client_hello_* family of functions may only be called from code executing within a ClientHello
       callback.

RETURN VALUES

       The application's supplied ClientHello callback returns SSL_CLIENT_HELLO_SUCCESS on success,
       SSL_CLIENT_HELLO_ERROR on failure, and SSL_CLIENT_HELLO_RETRY to suspend processing.

       SSL_client_hello_isv2() returns 1 for SSLv2-format ClientHellos and 0 otherwise.

       SSL_client_hello_get0_random(), SSL_client_hello_get0_session_id(), SSL_client_hello_get0_ciphers(), and
       SSL_client_hello_get0_compression_methods() return the length of the corresponding ClientHello fields.
       If zero is returned, the output pointer should not be assumed to be valid.

       SSL_client_hello_get0_ext() returns 1 if the extension of type 'type' is present, and 0 otherwise.

       SSL_client_hello_get1_extensions_present() returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.
