NAME
gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
void
gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function(gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t
cred, gnutls_srp_server_credentials_function * func);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t cred
is a gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t type.
gnutls_srp_server_credentials_function * func
is the callback function
DESCRIPTION
This function can be used to set a callback to retrieve the user's SRP
credentials. The callback's function form is:
int (*callback)(gnutls_session_t, const char* username, gnutls_datum_t
*salt, gnutls_datum_t *verifier, gnutls_datum_t *generator,
gnutls_datum_t *prime);
username contains the actual username. The salt , verifier ,
generator and prime must be filled in using the gnutls_malloc(). For
convenience prime and generator may also be one of the static
parameters defined in gnutls.h.
Initially, the data field is NULL in every gnutls_datum_t structure
that the callback has to fill in. When the callback is done GnuTLS
deallocates all of those buffers which are non-NULL, regardless of the
return value.
In order to prevent attackers from guessing valid usernames, if a user
does not exist, g and n values should be filled in using a random
user's parameters. In that case the callback must return the special
value (1). See gnutls_srp_set_server_fake_salt_seed too. If this is
not required for your application, return a negative number from the
callback to abort the handshake.
The callback function will only be called once per handshake. The
callback function should return 0 on success, while -1 indicates an
error.
