  80. .SH DESCRIPTION
  81. .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
  82. \&\fBSSL_get_current_cipher()\fR returns a pointer to an SSL_CIPHER object containing
  83. the description of the actually used cipher of a connection established with
  84. the \fBssl\fR object.
  85. See \fBSSL_CIPHER_get_name\fR\|(3) for more details.
  86. .PP
  87. \&\fBSSL_get_cipher_name()\fR obtains the
  88. name of the currently used cipher.
  89. \&\fBSSL_get_cipher()\fR is identical to \fBSSL_get_cipher_name()\fR.
  90. \&\fBSSL_get_cipher_bits()\fR is a
  91. macro to obtain the number of secret/algorithm bits used and
  92. \&\fBSSL_get_cipher_version()\fR returns the protocol name.
  93. .PP
  94. \&\fBSSL_get_pending_cipher()\fR returns a pointer to an SSL_CIPHER object containing
  95. the description of the cipher (if any) that has been negotiated for future use
  96. on the connection established with the \fBssl\fR object, but is not yet in use.
  97. This may be the case during handshake processing, when control flow can be
  98. returned to the application via any of several callback methods. The internal
  99. sequencing of handshake processing and callback invocation is not guaranteed
  100. to be stable from release to release, and at present only the callback set
  101. by \fBSSL_CTX_set_alpn_select_cb()\fR is guaranteed to have a non-NULL return value.
  102. Other callbacks may be added to this list over time.
  103. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  104. .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
  105. \&\fBSSL_get_current_cipher()\fR returns the cipher actually used, or NULL if
  106. no session has been established.
  107. .PP
  108. \&\fBSSL_get_pending_cipher()\fR returns the cipher to be used at the next change
  109. of cipher suite, or NULL if no such cipher is known.
  110. .SH NOTES
  111. .IX Header "NOTES"
  112. SSL_get_cipher, SSL_get_cipher_bits, SSL_get_cipher_version, and
  113. SSL_get_cipher_name are implemented as macros.
