gnutls_record_send_range(3) [centos man page]

gnutls_record_send_range(3)					      gnutls					       gnutls_record_send_range(3)

NAME

       gnutls_record_send_range - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       ssize_t gnutls_record_send_range(gnutls_session_t session, const void * data, size_t data_size, const gnutls_range_st * range);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_session_t session
		   is a gnutls_session_t structure.

       const void * data
		   contains the data to send.

       size_t data_size
		   is the length of the data.

       const gnutls_range_st * range
		   is the range of lengths in which the real data length must be hidden.

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  operates  like  gnutls_record_send() but, while gnutls_record_send() adds minimal padding to each TLS record, this function
       uses the TLS extra-padding feature to conceal the real data size within the range of lengths provided.  Some TLS sessions  do  not  support
       extra padding (e.g. stream ciphers in standard TLS or SSL3 sessions). To know whether the current session supports extra padding, and hence
       length hiding, use the gnutls_record_can_use_length_hiding() function.

NOTE

       This function currently is only limited to blocking sockets.

RETURNS

       The number of bytes sent (that is data_size in a successful invocation), or a negative error code.

NAME

       gnutls_record_recv_seq - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       ssize_t gnutls_record_recv_seq(gnutls_session_t session, void * data, size_t data_size, unsigned char * seq);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_session_t session
		   is a gnutls_session_t structure.

       void * data the buffer that the data will be read into

       size_t data_size
		   the number of requested bytes

       unsigned char * seq
		   is the packet's 64-bit sequence number. Should have space for 8 bytes.

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  is  the same as gnutls_record_recv(), except that it returns in addition to data, the sequence number of the data.  This is
       useful in DTLS where record packets might be received out-of-order. The returned 8-byte sequence number is an integer in big-endian  format
       and should be treated as a unique message identification.

RETURNS

       The  number  of bytes received and zero on EOF.	A negative error code is returned in case of an error.	The number of bytes received might
       be less than  data_size .

SINCE

       3.0
