+.TH CURLINFO_TLS_SSL_PTR 3 "23 Feb 2016" "libcurl 7.48.0" "curl_easy_getinfo options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLINFO_TLS_SESSION, CURLINFO_TLS_SSL_PTR \- get TLS session info
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_TLS_SSL_PTR,
+ struct curl_tlssessioninfo **session);
+
+/* if you need compatibility with libcurl < 7.48.0 use
+ CURLINFO_TLS_SESSION instead: */
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_TLS_SESSION,
+ struct curl_tlssessioninfo **session);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Pass a pointer to a 'struct curl_tlssessioninfo *'. The pointer will be
+initialized to refer to a 'struct curl_tlssessioninfo *' that will contain an
+enum indicating the SSL library used for the handshake and a pointer to the
+respective internal TLS session structure of this underlying SSL library.
+
+This may then be used to extract certificate information in a format
+convenient for further processing, such as manual validation. NOTE: this
+option may not be available for all SSL backends; unsupported SSL backends
+will always return NULL in the \fIinternals\fP pointer to indicate that they
+are not supported.
+
+.nf
+struct curl_tlssessioninfo {
+ curl_sslbackend backend;
+ void *internals;
+};
+.fi
+
+The \fIbackend\fP struct member is one of the defines in the CURLSSLBACKEND_*
+series: CURLSSLBACKEND_NONE (when built without TLS support),
+CURLSSLBACKEND_OPENSSL, CURLSSLBACKEND_GNUTLS, CURLSSLBACKEND_NSS,
+CURLSSLBACKEND_GSKIT, CURLSSLBACKEND_POLARSSL, CURLSSLBACKEND_CYASSL,
+CURLSSLBACKEND_SCHANNEL, CURLSSLBACKEND_DARWINSSL or
+CURLSSLBACKEND_AXTLS. (Note that the OpenSSL forks are all reported as just
+OpenSSL here.)
+
+The \fIinternals\fP struct member will point to a TLS library specific pointer
+for the active ("in use") SSL connection, with the following underlying types:
+.RS
+.IP GnuTLS
+gnutls_session_t
+.IP gskit
+gsk_handle
+.IP NSS
+PRFileDesc *
+.IP OpenSSL
+CURLINFO_TLS_SESSION: SSL_CTX *
+
+CURLINFO_TLS_SSL_PTR: SSL *
+.RE
+Since 7.48.0 the \fIinternals\fP member can point to these other SSL backends
+as well:
+.RS
+.IP axTLS
+SSL *
+.IP PolarSSL
+ssl_session *
+.IP Secure Channel ("WinSSL")
+CtxtHandle *
+.IP Secure Transport ("DarwinSSL")
+SSLContext *
+.IP wolfSSL ("CyaSSL")
+SSL *
+.RE
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+All TLS-based
+.SH EXAMPLE
+TODO
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Added in 7.48.0.
+
+This option supersedes \fICURLINFO_TLS_SESSION(3)\fP which was added in 7.34.0.
+This option is exactly the same as that option except in the case of OpenSSL.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
