=head1 NAME
SSL_CTX_set_quiet_shutdown, SSL_CTX_get_quiet_shutdown, SSL_set_quiet_shutdown, SSL_get_quiet_shutdown - manipulate shutdown behaviour
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
void SSL_CTX_set_quiet_shutdown(SSL_CTX *ctx, int mode);
int SSL_CTX_get_quiet_shutdown(const SSL_CTX *ctx);
void SSL_set_quiet_shutdown(SSL *ssl, int mode);
int SSL_get_quiet_shutdown(const SSL *ssl);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
SSL_CTX_set_quiet_shutdown() sets the "quiet shutdown" flag for B<ctx> to be
B<mode>. SSL objects created from B<ctx> inherit the B<mode> valid at the time
L<SSL_new(3)> is called. B<mode> may be 0 or 1.
SSL_CTX_get_quiet_shutdown() returns the "quiet shutdown" setting of B<ctx>.
SSL_set_quiet_shutdown() sets the "quiet shutdown" flag for B<ssl> to be
B<mode>. The setting stays valid until B<ssl> is removed with
L<SSL_free(3)> or SSL_set_quiet_shutdown() is called again.
It is not changed when L<SSL_clear(3)> is called.
B<mode> may be 0 or 1.
SSL_get_quiet_shutdown() returns the "quiet shutdown" setting of B<ssl>.
=head1 NOTES
Normally when a SSL connection is finished, the parties must send out
close_notify alert messages using L<SSL_shutdown(3)>
for a clean shutdown.
When setting the "quiet shutdown" flag to 1, L<SSL_shutdown(3)>
will set the internal flags to SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN|SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN.
(L<SSL_shutdown(3)> then behaves like
L<SSL_set_shutdown(3)> called with
SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN|SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN.)
The session is thus considered to be shutdown, but no close_notify alert
is sent to the peer. This behaviour violates the TLS standard.
The default is normal shutdown behaviour as described by the TLS standard.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
SSL_CTX_set_quiet_shutdown() and SSL_set_quiet_shutdown() do not return
diagnostic information.
SSL_CTX_get_quiet_shutdown() and SSL_get_quiet_shutdown return the current
setting.
