master secret value
Synopsis
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
const
void *gnutls_session_get_master_secret( |
gnutls_session_t
|
session); |
ARGUMENTS
- gnutls_session_t
session
-
is a gnutls_session_t
structure.
DESCRIPTION
Return a pointer to the 48−byte master secret in the
session. The pointer must not be modified or deallocated.
If a master secret value has not yet been established, the
output will be garbage; in particular, a NULL return value should not be
expected.
Consider using gnutls_prf() rather than
extracting the master secret and use it to derive further
data.
RETURN VALUE
pointer to master secret.
REPORTING BUGS
