NAME
       ssl_session_cache_api - TLS session cache API

DESCRIPTION
       Defines  the  API  for  the  TLS session cache so that the data storage
       scheme can be replaced by defining a new callback  module  implementing
       this API.

DATA TYPES
       session_cache_ref() = any()

       session_cache_key() = {partial_key(), ssl:session_id()}

              A key to an entry in the session cache.

       partial_key()

              The  opaque  part of the key. Does not need to be handled by the
              callback.

       session()

              The session data that is stored for each session.

EXPORTS
       delete(Cache, Key) -> _

              Types:

                 Cache =  session_cache_ref()
                 Key = session_cache_key()

              Deletes a cache entry. Is only called from  the  cache  handling
              process.

       foldl(Fun, Acc0, Cache) -> Acc

              Types:

                 Fun = fun()
                 Acc0 = Acc = term()
                 Cache =  session_cache_ref()

              Calls  Fun(Elem,  AccIn)  on  successive  elements of the cache,
              starting with AccIn == Acc0. Fun/2 must return a  new  accumula-
              tor,  which is passed to the next call. The function returns the
              final value of the accumulator. Acc0 is returned if the cache is
              empty.

       init(Args) -> Cache

              Types:

                 Cache =  session_cache_ref()
                 Args = proplists:proplist()

              Includes property {role, client | server}. Currently this is the
              only predefined property, there can also be user-defined proper-
              ties.   See   also   application   environment   variable   ses-
              sion_cb_init_args.

              Performs possible initializations of the  cache  and  returns  a
              reference to it that is used as parameter to the other API func-
              tions. Is called by the cache handling processes init  function,
              hence  putting  the  same requirements on it as a normal process
              init function. This function is called twice when  starting  the
              SSL  application,  once  with  the role client and once with the
              role server, as the SSL application must be prepared to take  on
              both roles.

       lookup(Cache, Key) -> Entry

              Types:

                 Cache =  session_cache_ref()
                 Key = session_cache_key()
                 Session = session() | undefined

              Looks up a cache entry. Is to be callable from any process.

       select_session(Cache, PartialKey) -> [Session]

              Types:

                 Cache =  session_cache_ref()
                 PartialKey =  partial_key()
                 Session = session()

              Selects  sessions that can be reused. Is to be callable from any
              process.

       size(Cache) -> integer()

              Types:

                 Cache =  session_cache_ref()

              Returns the number of sessions in the cache. If size exceeds the
              maximum  number  of  sessions, the current cache entries will be
              invalidated regardless of their remaining  lifetime.  Is  to  be
              callable from any process.

       terminate(Cache) -> _

              Types:

                 Cache =  session_cache_ref()
                   As returned by init/0

              Takes  care  of  possible  cleanup that is needed when the cache
              handling process terminates.

       update(Cache, Key, Session) -> _

              Types:

                 Cache =  session_cache_ref()
                 Key = session_cache_key()
                 Session = session()

              Caches a new session or updates an already cached one.  Is  only
              called from the cache handling process.
