nbd_get_tls_negotiated(3) LIBNBD nbd_get_tls_negotiated(3)

NAME

nbd_get_tls_negotiated - find out if TLS was negotiated on a connection

SYNOPSIS

 #include <libnbd.h>
 int nbd_get_tls_negotiated (struct nbd_handle *h);

DESCRIPTION

After connecting you may call this to find out if the connection is using TLS.

This is only really useful if you set the TLS request mode to "LIBNBD_TLS_ALLOW" (see nbd_set_tls(3)), because in this mode we try to use TLS but fall back to unencrypted if it was not available. This function will tell you if TLS was negotiated or not.

In "LIBNBD_TLS_REQUIRE" mode (the most secure) the connection would have failed if TLS could not be negotiated, and in "LIBNBD_TLS_DISABLE" mode TLS is not tried.

RETURN VALUE

This call returns a boolean value.

ERRORS

On error "-1" is returned.

Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.

HANDLE STATE

The handle must be negotiating, or connected with the server, or shut down, otherwise this call will return an error.

VERSION

This function first appeared in libnbd 1.2.

If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check if the following macro is defined:

 #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_GET_TLS_NEGOTIATED 1
