of session IDs. Namely, passing "-id_prefix <text>" will set a
generate_session_id() callback that generates session IDs as random data
with <text> block-copied over the top of the start of the ID. This can be
viewed by watching the session ID s_client's output when it connects.

This is mostly useful for testing any SSL/TLS code (eg. proxies) that wish
to deal with multiple servers, when each of which might be generating a
unique range of session IDs (eg. with a certain prefix).

SSL/TLS session IDs in a server. According to RFC2246, the session ID is an
arbitrary value chosen by the server. It can be useful to have some control
over this "arbitrary value" so as to choose it in ways that can aid in
things like external session caching and balancing (eg. clustering). The
default session ID generation is to fill the ID with random data.

The callback used by default is built in to ssl_sess.c, but registering a
callback in an SSL_CTX or in a particular SSL overrides this. BTW: SSL
callbacks will override SSL_CTX callbacks, and a new SSL structure inherits
any callback set in its 'parent' SSL_CTX. The header comments describe how
this mechanism ticks, and source code comments describe (hopefully) why it
ticks the way it does.

Man pages are on the way ...

generates a warning when using the function name as a value to a
regular function pointer with the "correct" definition of the

callbacks, and their prototypes were consistent as they were. These casts
need reversing.

Also, I personally find line breaks during parameter lists (ie a line
ending in a comma) easier to read at a glance than line breaks at the end
of a function call and before a dereference on the return value (ie a line
ending in a closed-bracket followed by a line starting with "->").
