<h3><a name="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></h3>

<p>This extension provides a generic binding to <a
href="http://www.openssl.org/">OpenSSL</a>, utilizing the
<strong>Tcl_StackChannel</strong>
API for Tcl 8.4 and higher. The sockets behave exactly the same
as channels created using Tcl's built-in <strong>socket</strong>
command with additional options for controlling the SSL session.
</p>

<h3><a name="COMMANDS">COMMANDS</a></h3>

<p>Typically one would use the <strong>tls::socket </strong>command
which provides compatibility with the native Tcl <strong>socket</strong>
command. In such cases <strong>tls::import</strong> should not be
used directly.</p>

<dl>
    <dt><a name="tls::init"><b>tls::init </b><i>?options?</i></a></dt>
    <dd>Optional function to set the default options used by
	<strong>tls::socket</strong>. If you call <strong>tls::import</strong>
	directly this routine has no effect. Any of the options
	that <strong>tls::socket</strong> accepts can be set
	using this command, though you should limit your options
	to only TLS related ones.</dd>
    <dt>&nbsp;</dt>
    <dt><a name="tls::socket"><b>tls::socket </b><em>?options?
	host port</em></a></dt>
    <dt><b>tls::socket</b><em> ?-server command? ?options? port</em></dt>
    <dd>This is a helper function that utilizes the underlying
	commands (<strong>tls::import</strong>). It behaves
	exactly the same as the native Tcl <strong>socket</strong>
	command except that the options can include any of the
	applicable <a href="#tls::import"><strong>tls:import</strong></a>
	options with one additional option:
<blockquote>
    <dl>
	<dt><strong>-autoservername</strong> <em>bool</em></dt>
	<dd>Automatically send the -servername as the <em>host</em> argument
	    (default is <em>false</em>)</dd>
    </dl>
</blockquote>

    <dt><a name="tls::import"><b>tls::import </b><i>channel

	<dd>Callback to invoke when OpenSSL needs to obtain a password,
	    typically to unlock the private key of a certificate. The
	    callback should return a string which represents the password

	    also be set to true. (default is <em>false</em>)</dd>
	<dt><strong>-securitylevel</strong> <em>integer</em></dt>
	<dd>Set security level. Must be 0 to 5. The security level affects
	    cipher suite encryption algorithms, supported ECC curves,
	    supported signature algorithms, DH parameter sizes, certificate
	    key sizes and signature algorithms. The default is 1.
	    Level 3 and higher disable support for session tickets and only
	    accept cipher suites that provide forward secrecy.</dd>

	    the package is linked against supports the TLS hostname extension
	    for 'Server Name Indication' (SNI). Use to name the logical host
	    we are talking to and expecting a certificate for.</dd>

	callback are ignored.

	<br>
	<br>

	<dl>

	<dt>
	  <strong>error</strong> <em>channel message</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  The <em>message</em> argument contains an error message generated
	  by the OpenSSL function <code>ERR_reason_error_string()</code>.
	</dd>

	<br>

	<dt>
	  <strong>info</strong> <em>channel major minor message type</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  This form of callback is invoked by the OpenSSL function
	  <code>SSL_CTX_set_info_callback()</code> during connection setup
	  and use.
	  <br>
	  <ul>
	  <li>Possible values for <em>major</em> are:
	  <code>handshake, alert, connect, accept</code>.</li>
	  <li>Possible values for <em>minor</em> are:
	  <code>start, done, read, write, loop, exit</code>.</li>
	  <li>The <em>message</em> argument is a descriptive string which may
	  be generated either by <code>SSL_state_string_long()</code> or by
	  <code>SSL_alert_desc_string_long()</code>, depending on the context.</li>
	  <li>For alerts, the possible values for <em>type</em> are:
	  <code>warning, fatal, and unknown</code>. For others,
	  <code>info</code> is used.</li>
	  </ul>
	</dd>

	<dt>
	  <strong>message</strong> <em>channel direction version content_type data</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  This form of callback is invoked by the OpenSSL function
	  <code>SSL_set_msg_callback()</code> whenever a message is sent or
	  received. It is only available when
	  OpenSSL is complied with the <em>enable-ssl-trace</em> option.
	  Where <em>direction</em> is Sent or Received, <em>version</em> is the
	  protocol version, <em>content_type</em> is the message content type,
	  and <em>data</em> is more info on the message from the <code>SSL_trace</code> API.
	</dd>
	<br>

	<dt>
	  <strong>session</strong> <em>channel session_id ticket lifetime</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  This form of callback is invoked by the OpenSSL function
	  <code>SSL_CTX_sess_set_new_cb()</code>.
	  Where <em>session_id</em> is the current session identifier,
	  <em>ticket</em> is the session ticket info, and <em>lifetime</em>
	  is the the ticket lifetime in seconds.
	</dd>
	<br>
	</dl>
    </dd>

    <br>

    <dt><strong>-password</strong> <em>callback</em></dt>
    <dd>
	Invokes the specified <em>callback</em> script when OpenSSL needs to
	obtain a password. See below for the possible arguments passed to
	the callback script. See below for valid return values.

	<br>
	<br>

	<dl>

	<dt>
	  <strong>password</strong> <em>rwflag size</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  Invoked when loading or storing a PEM certificate with encryption.
	  Where <em>rwflag</em> is 0 for reading/decryption or 1 for
	  writing/encryption (can prompt user to confirm) and
	  <em>size</em> is the max password length in bytes.
	  The callback should return the password as a string.
	</dd>
    </dd>

    <br>


    <dt><strong>-validatecommand</strong> <em>callback</em></dt>
    <dd>
	Invokes the specified <em>callback</em> script during handshake in
	order to validate the provided value(s). See below for the possible
	arguments passed to the callback script.
	To reject the value and abort connection, the callback should return 0.
	To accept the value and continue the connection, it should return 1.
	To reject the value, but continue the connection, it should return 2.

	<br>
	<br>

	<dl>

	<dt>
	  <strong>alpn</strong> <em>channel protocol match</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  For servers, this form of callback is invoked when the client ALPN
	  extension is received. If <em>match</em> is true, <em>protocol</em>
	  is the first <b>-alpn</b> specified protocol common to the both the
	  client and server. If not, the first client specified protocol is
	  used. Called after hello and ALPN callbacks.
	</dd>

	<br>

	<dt>
	  <strong>hello</strong> <em>channel servername</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  For servers, this form of callback is invoked during client hello
	  message processing. It is used to select an appropriate certificate to
	  present, and make other configuration adjustments relevant to that
	  server name and its configuration. Called before SNI and ALPN callbacks.
	</dd>

	<br>

	<dt>
	  <strong>sni</strong> <em>channel servername</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  For servers, this form of callback is invoked when the SNI extension
	  from the client is received. Where <em>servername</em> is the client
	  provided server name from the <b>-servername</b> option. This is
	  used when a server supports multiple names, so the right certificate
	  can be used. Called after hello callback but before ALPN callback.
	</dd>

	<br>

	<dt>
	  <strong>verify</strong> <em>channel depth cert status error</em>
	</dt>
	<dd>
	  This form of callback is invoked by OpenSSL when a new certificate
	  is received from the peer. It allows the client to check the
	  certificate verification results and choose whether to continue
	  or not. It is called for each certificate in the certificate chain.
	  <ul>
	  <li>The <em>depth</em> argument is an integer representing the
	  current depth on the certificate chain, with
	  <code>0</code> as the peer certificate and higher values going
	  up to the Certificate Authority (CA).</li>
	  <li>The <em>cert</em> argument is a list of key-value pairs similar
	  to those returned by
	  <a href="#tls::status"><strong>tls::status</strong></a>.</li>
	  <li>The <em>status</em> argument is an boolean representing the
	  validity of the current certificate.
	  A value of <code>0</code> means the certificate is deemed invalid.
	  A value of <code>1</code> means the certificate is deemed valid.</li>
	  <li>The <em>error</em> argument supplies the message, if any, generated
	  by <code>X509_STORE_CTX_get_error()</code>.</li>
	  </ul>
	</dd>
	<br>
	</dl>
    </dd>

<p>
Reference implementations of these callbacks are provided in the
distribution as <strong>tls::callback</strong>, <strong>tls::password</strong>,
and <strong>tls::validate_command</strong> respectively.  Note that these are
<em>sample</em> implementations only.  In a more realistic deployment
you would specify your own callback scripts on each TLS channel using the
<strong>-command</strong>, <strong>-password</strong>, and <strong>-validate_command</strong> options.
</p>

<p>
The default behavior when the <strong>-command</strong> and <strong>-validate_command</strong>
options are not specified is for TLS to process the associated library callbacks
internally. The default behavior when the <strong>-password</strong> option is not
specified is for TLS to process the associated library callbacks by attempting
to call <strong>tls::password</strong>.
The difference between these two behaviors is a consequence of maintaining
compatibility with earlier implementations.
</p>

<p>
The <strong>tls::debug</strong> variable provides some additional
control over these reference callbacks.  Its value is zero by default.
Higher values produce more diagnostic output, and will also force the
verify method in <strong>tls::callback</strong> to accept the
certificate, even when it is invalid.
</p>

<p>
<em>
The use of the reference callbacks <strong>tls::callback</strong>,
<strong>tls::password</strong>, and <strong>tls::validate_command</strong>
is not recommended.  They may be removed from future releases.
</em>
</p>

<p>
<em>
The use of the variable <strong>tls::debug</strong> is not recommended.
It may be removed from future releases.

<h3><a name="DEBUG">DEBUG</a></h3>

TLS key logging can be enabled by setting the environment variable
<b>SSLKEYLOGFILE</b> to the name of the file to log to. Then whenever TLS
key material is generated or received it will be logged to the file. This
is useful for logging key data for network logging tools to use to
decrypt the data.

<h3><a name="SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS">SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS</a></h3>

<p>The capabilities of this package can vary enormously based upon how your
OpenSSL library was configured and built. New versions may obsolete older
protocol versions, add or remove ciphers, change default values, etc. Use the
<strong>tls::ciphers</strong> and <strong>tls::protocols</strong> commands to
obtain the supported versions.</p>
